Hello everyone, I have suffered from seasonal allergy attacks, and my current doctor suggested I have rhinitis. I have been taking Veramyst nasal spray for about 6 months now. About 4 months ago I went to my doctor and asked him for a testosterone test which came back normal, I also asked him to run some blood work because I was always fatigued and took naps most days around 3pm. Everything came back normal.
CARLSBAD, Calif., Jan. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: IONS) today announced that GSK has initiated a Phase 1 study of IONIS-HBV-LRx. Ionis earned a $1.5 million milestone payment from GSK related to the initiation of this study. IONIS-HBV-LRx, which was previously referred to as ISIS-GSK6-LRx, is a drug Ionis is developing with GSK for the treatment of patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV).
I understand that use of antibiotics and nasal steroids (Like Flonase, and Veramyst, for example) can cause the problem, and make it worse. Since this fungus naturally exists in all of us, diagnosis is difficult, (therefore making it hard for your Doctor to diagnose) but if you have a positive reaction to the GSE, I believe it would strongly suggest that a fungus overgrowth is the problem. If so, you probably want to take care of it yourself.
I would start by giving the Veramyst more time. It should reduce the inflamation of the olefactory nerve that is most likely causing your phantom smoke smell.
In addition to that, you should research phantosmia ( searching parosmia might help you find them faster). There are several groups devoted to the subject out there with good resources and tips.
Hang in there. My friends who have dealt with it did get better.
You should get a nasal steroid such a Flonase or Nasacort and start using it a month or so before the allergy season starts. These are prescription medications but Flonase is now generic so it should be cheaper now. It really works great.
Two trial using GSK drugs? Which hepatits C drugs does GSK make? I don't recall reading that they play in hcv. I guess I've missed something.
I would also recommend that maybe you try one of the other nasal steroids. There are quite a few to chose from - Veramyst, Flonase, Omnaris to name a few. Different medicines work differently for different people, so one of the other options may work for you.
Also, there are several other classes of nasal sprays you can try - nasal antihistamines (Astrepro and Patanase, anticholinergic (Atrovent - ipratroprium bromate), and mast cell stabilizer (NasalCrom - an OTC).
Keep us posted.
I recently heard about this allergy nasal spray called Veramyst and called my physician for a perscription. They told me they could not perscribe because of my melanoma diagnosis. Because this medication is a steroid they do not perscribe to patients with melanoma and I would need permission from my oncologist.
I don't understand how this nasal spray could have any effect on my melanoma diagnosis.
(sorry) or if I take the steroid I can cough up huge yellow inch long mucus plugs. I take Allegra, Zyrtec, Claritin, Flonase and singular, albuterol nebs and inhaler, also famotidine 2x daily I was on advair for 2months and he said stop because it did nothing for me other than change sputum from slimy to chunky and is quite pricey for no results.
//www.rxlist.com/flonase-side-effects-drug-center.htm - which is probably why your doctor said to stop using it.
If your cough got better using it, maybe it was helping some allergy symptoms, like post-nasal drip.
Did you ask your doctor what he meant, or try to clarify anything? Always feel free to ask questions and clarify anything you don't understand with your doctor.
it revealed several polyps through out my sinuses,pus in my left cheek sinus,and airpocket in another sinus,deviated septum and my turbinates are 4x larger then they should be .im on xyzyal which is like zyrtec,veramyst,singular and i take claritin every day...
I am a health care provider who USED to write Rx for Valtrex, but watching the unethical behavior of GSK in their drive to keep the prices up high, how they treat their sales staff and the unreasonable drug costs for the last several years I have been a devoted writer of generic Acyclovir.
I am CONVINCED that GSK has everything to do with a sudden shortage of acyclovir and the pressure on generic manufacturers to stop producing....
//www.rxlist.com/flonase-drug.htm. Is this prescribed to decreases swelling or to attend to the sinus issue contributing to the swelling?
Twice in the last six months using Flonase my mouth filled with blood from sinuses. Is another medication for sinusitis available?
I've had an upper respiratory infection for about a week. Went to the doctor this morning with severe ear pain, no infection, just inflammation due to the other infection. Was recommended Flonase, rest, and fluids. After I came home and took the Flonase I've had this really weird fizzing sensation off and on at the back of my throat all day. It feels like a handful of poprocks are at the top of my throat/back of my mouth. It's a really weird suggestion.
methylprednisolone(steroidpack),clerinex,avelox,&i called her got cheratussin ac syrup,veramyst spray(this dries my nose so i dont take it eryday), halls,soup, hot h2 o, more soup, hot cocoa,& gained 4 lbs. in 3 days HA!
I'm also taking Fluticasone Propionate and have the very same issue. I think it's because the nasal spray dries out the nasal cavity. At first, I started having bloody noses, but then that stopped and this current symptom started. My doctor had said it may make the nose very dry and to try saline solution once daily after the Flonase. I have yet to do that, but it's supposed to help. Hope that helps.
