I suffer from severe allergies year round and have been prescribed all the most popular medicines. Nasacort has been the only one to really clear up my sinuses. Its an amazing drug.

I used this for nasal congestion for the first time about an hour and a half ago. It hasn't worked one bit! Now my nose is completely stopped up and I can't breathe through it at all. I followed the directions on the label very carefully. Has anyone else had this problem? I had been using an over the counter decongestant, but you're only supposed to use it for 3 days (I had used it for about 6 mon...

I have been taken Nasacort AQ in combination with Loratadine (generic Claritin) for severe hay fever that I've had all my life. For once I feel like I don't have allergies. Antihistamines have never fully relieved my symptoms until I added Nasacort. I've had no side effects and it did take a week of use before it really started working.

When examined for sleep apnea, my doctor gave me a sample. It helped clear up a lot of my post-nasal drip. Helped cut down on my snoring. Also, allergies don't bother me. I used to get the bleary eyes, where you could not focus. Have not had that problem since I began using Nasacort AQ.

I've been on antihistamines and decongestants for over 20 years for allergies, in the last couple months after starting this daily I've sneezed on average less then once a day and can't recall having a runny nose. I've had no problems with burning or bloody nose but you need to make sure you get it up into the sinuses or it can burn if sprayed too low in your nostrils.

Quite effective for allergy relief, but the side effects are a major disincentive. Be prepared for a scratchy throat that always feels like it needs to be cleared and a rougher voice. In addition, it caused my voice to break far more than usual.

I was having exercise induced rhinitis with sneezing and congestion for 24-48 hours after a workout. Using Nasacort 15 min. before working out has taken care of the problem completely! I am not afraid to exercise anymore! Yay!

I have tried many medications both oral and nasal for allergy related inflammation. The one big problem I noticed, and it took me while to single it out was not to take it before bedtime. It makes it very difficult even with sleep aids to go down.

I suffer from severe year-round allergies and chronic sinusitis. In the spring, when pollen is in full swing, this nasal spray is crucial to my survival, as it isn't as harsh as some of the others on the market. If you are experiencing nose bleeds, try to spray with the opposite hand (use your left hand for the right nostril and vice versa).

I get sinus infections due year around allergies. The only problem I have had with it is a nose bleed from time to time. But it is worth it not having sinus infections all the time.

I tend to suffer from sinus infections because something about the shape of my sinuses doesn't allow for proper drainage, thus the bacterial buildup & resulting infection. This spray has gotten rid of an infection for me without the use of antibiotics! I don't use it daily, but when I feel like my allergies or sinuses are acting up I'll use it 2 or 3 times and usually it takes care of the problem. I know the literature says it doesn't work immediately, but I get quick results. Can't really talk about side effects because I don't use it daily. If you have allergies that cause sinus complications, give it a try!Read More Read Less

This medication gives me a bloddy nose from time to time, but is a great help to me with winter time rhinitis. It does not dry out my eyes as bad as antihistamines. With the addition of Vicks Breathe Rite strips it got me through my last cold at night.

i have been using Nasacort AQ for several years now due to inflammed, red nasal passages from my allergies. it has worked to keep my tissues moist without a runny nose plus no more stuffiness. also, it's easy to use.

Whilst this medication has proven to be the most effective for me, the side effects are terrible. Severe head pain and nauseousness had me thinking that I had some sort of brain tumor or something until I visited my doctor. Unfortunately, I had to stop using it.
