Triamcinolone nasal "I suffer almost year-round. I tried many over-the-counter reliefs. Some worked for a short time, then no effect on my allergies. Some worked but had other drugs in them I didn't need for my allergies. I would use nose spray Afrin for bad times. Eventually, it stopped giving me any long-term relief, if any. Tried flushing with saline pots with minimal relief. I tried Flonase, and it did work for everything, bad taste, bad smell after using, would get a headache from sinuses being too dry. The side effects would make me feel light-headed, dizzy, and still couldn't breathe through my nose. Nasacort works for me. Use at bedtime and allergies free all day. I found nothing else that works."

Triamcinolone nasal "After suffering for more than ten days with a stuffed nose and post-nasal drip cough, I tried this medicine for the first time this morning. Two squirts in each nostril, and within an hour, I felt like a new person. I am so grateful for trying this stuff. It is such a game changer for me. It's now about seven hours later, and I still feel wonderful. What a blessing."

Triamcinolone nasal "I have developed allergies in my 50s. We have three cats, and I am especially sensitive to one of them and will sneeze and sneeze after petting her, and my nose will run continuously. I now limit my time with her. Nasacort has stopped my nose from running. My side effects have been a little nausea and a feeling of hyperactivity. For me, the hyperactivity is a plus, as I am getting things done. I still want to take this medication sparingly."

Triamcinolone nasal "I took this last night and this evening to try and help my rhinitis. After an hour of taking it, I'm pretty wired in more than one way. When I normally have anxiety, I shut down and withdraw, but this medication not only induces anxiety, but it makes me need to do something physical to get energy out. Like run. So I know this isn't me. I also have found out that patients with Afib shouldn't be taking nasal steroids due to them being able to induce an episode. Thankfully, I'm starting to feel it wear off. I took it almost three and a half hours ago and am finally starting to feel tired enough for bed, so my body is slowly coming down from it. It works darn well as marketed, I'll give it that, but with Afib, I can't risk it. I honestly don't mind the anxiety or the wiredness, but it's not for me."

Triamcinolone nasal "Today was my first time trying it, and it works! I could tell when I first sprayed it; it seemed to open me up then. I used to use Claritin D (til it stopped working), then Zyrtec, then Flonase, but they all seemed to take time to work. Didn’t have that problem today. Plus, it was cheaper than the Flonase, and I had a coupon on top of that!"

Triamcinolone nasal "Works within minutes to relieve allergy symptoms, sneezing and runny nose. Although after just 2 hours of using this medicine, I developed the side effects of a cough that got worse as I continued to use the medicine and an altered sense of smell over three days. After the third day, I stopped using the medicine, after developing more symptoms: weakness, fatigue, and joint pain and swelling in my hands. One week after stopping the medicine, joint pain and swelling have increased."

Triamcinolone nasal "I bought this medication this morning and took two puffs! Now I am cough, cough, coughing! It did clear my sinuses but created another irritant... I do not have asthma nor suffer from year-round allergies."

Triamcinolone nasal "Just tried it for the first time today. Although my nose isn't completely clear, there is a huge difference than when I didn't have it. I was using Afrin, and Nasacort didn't seem to have that immediate clearance that Afrin provided, but it was good because this meant that the addictive effect of total and immediate clearance was not there, so Nasacort was more gradual and less harsh. I love it!"

"Do not use if you suffer from any anxiety! I've suffered extreme anxiety and back-to-back panic attacks. I have generalized anxiety disorder, and using this has triggered the absolute worst anxiety symptoms (shortness of breath, dry mouth, sore throat, clammy palms, tingling arms, and tightness or pain in the center of the back). Plus, it stopped working after extended use. It may work for some, but please use cautiously if you suffer from anxiety issues."

Triamcinolone nasal "Nasacort has absolutely made my nasal congestion and runniness a problem. I've been using Nasacort for a couple of months. From the outset, after my morning dose (snorting it is not a problem), I would find my nose immediately became runny. If I went cycling, I'd find myself with a stuffy nose and post-nasal drip -- classic allergic reactions to my environment. The Nasacort was not helping a bit. In fact, it seemed to be aggravating my allergies. And they don't exactly give this stuff away. So I am doing without Nasacort and will probably switch to a prescription inhaler next time I see my allergy specialist."

Triamcinolone nasal "Let me start by saying this medication absolutely does what it is supposed to. It completely clears my sinuses, unclogs my ears, and gets rid of post-nasal drip. I only use this as needed. I have panic disorder with agoraphobia, which is pretty severe at the moment. However, I’ve noticed that this medication does cause some increased drainage due to me being all stopped up. In turn, the drainage causes some nausea, which gives me anxiety until it’s finished draining. I’m wondering if this is why others are experiencing anxiety?"

Triamcinolone nasal "I was hooked on Afrin nasal sprays for years, and I got what's called rebound congestion. All of my life, I have had sinus problems. I was told to try Nasacort or a steroid spray to help get me off. I tried Nasacort, and after about a week, I was totally off that rebound congestion Afrin. I haven't felt this good since I was a kid, my sinuses feel great, and I can't believe this stuff really works. I'm so happy I'm not miserable anymore."

"I've had chronic rhinitis for 40+ years, and I've tried many oral medications over the years with minor benefits, but not enough to offset the side effects. I've basically learned to live with constant post-nasal drainage and sinus congestion. I used Nasacort for a month, and while my congestion and PND abated to some extent, what mucus I did have was very runny, so I had a rather drippy nose all the time. Unfortunately, just as my first bottle was starting to run out, I started to experience what I can best describe as an anxious and jittery feeling in my chest. It left me feeling very unsettled and fidgety. Yesterday, the congestion and PND flared up significantly, so I decided to try Nasacort once more, which I did in the late afternoon. When I woke up this morning, the anxiety, tension, and jitters were all back with a vengeance. So to me, it's conclusive that these side effects are real and not worth the benefits. Too bad because they really did help the rhinitis!"

Triamcinolone nasal "I’m a 21 y/o female with spring allergies. I’ve been taking other allergy meds regularly, but they weren’t cutting it this year. I started taking Nasacort, and to be fair, it did definitely help with congestion and post-nasal drip!! For the first day, I was feeling good about it, and then came the headache. It felt like I was getting punched in the eye socket and teeth constantly. Ibuprofen doesn’t help at all, and the only remedy for this pain was 8-hour acetaminophen. It’s slowly making its way out of my system, but I’ve had constant pain since the last dose around 36 hours ago. Overall, in my experience, it wasn’t worth it. I’ll deal with some post-nasal drip over this debilitating migraine any day."

Triamcinolone nasal "For years, I have suffered with sinus headaches and sinus infections, with little relief from any of the medicines my doctor prescribed. I have taken Allegra, Claritin, Flonase, and Zyrtec, and none of them worked. Finally, my doctor encouraged me to try Nasacort. Nasacort took a few days to get into my respiratory system, but it worked. All of our bodies are different, so Nasacort might not work for everyone, but it worked for me."

Triamcinolone nasal "I only bought nose spray once before. I bought a $4 Equate (Walmart brand) that night, after spraying it, my nose cleared and the sinus pressure went away for almost 24 hrs. I bought Nasacort, and all it did was run out of my nose. I did not feel any relief of any kind. I am the most miserable I have ever been."

"I tried one spray on each side of my nose. Within 10 min, my nose started pouring, and I was sneezing repeatedly. Ok... maybe I should have not used it in the car and gone into a grocery store. Within 2 hours, my throat started to burn, and I started coughing and could not catch my breath. Two choices, 911 or Benadryl. I took the Benadryl while my finger was paused over the phone. I caught my breath, but my throat was on fire for 12 hours and still hurts badly today. I can only imagine blisters or sores and very red."
