Avatar m tn I used flonase for a week and got better with my cough and then I stopped. Afterwards my cough came back and I saw a doctor and he told me do not use flonase which makes me cough. I am confused?
Avatar m tn I notice that the ingredient that in Flonase is the same (fluticasone propionate) is the same one used in flonase.. It occurs to me that flonase might even work better because more of the stream of fluticasone propionate would hit the back of my throat and be swallowed, getting more to my esophagus and less to my mouth. The key point though is I can get flonase inexpensively, whereas the flovent is more than I can easily afford.
464237 tn?1315670793 t want the infection to get even worse. How is it ok to use flonase for bacterial infection? Have any of you used flonase for infection. My infection is not allergy related, it came from a cold that was going around. Thanks so much for reading. and yes I have been using nasal irrigation along with all of the other home remedies I have found on the internet.

Avatar m tn Dr. Prescribed Flonase for vertigo. The way to apply, he said, was to have head down and use the opposite hand for each nostril.
Avatar n tn Hello, ever since at least early this year (Jan/Feb maybe earlier) I have had something on my right nostrils septum growing. it grew for a while and I had something that felt similar in the other nostrils septum grow and was unable to see it well. I work 2 jobs and I am a full time student so I went to the schools health center and the nurse said she is not sure what it was, but it didn't look cancerous to her. she said try using Flonase as a steroid and or Bactaide on it.
Avatar f tn ve tried 3 different antibiotics for sinus infection. Also tried flonase, allegra, and Sudafed. Nothing seems to help. I feel pressure mostly in my forehead. I don't have any congestion with mucus or anything. I've had a sinus x-ray, CT scan, and MRI, which were all fine and showed nothing wrong with sinuses. I usually clean my ears out with a q tip after showering. I used to get some wax out, however, after this started, I can't get any wax out.
Avatar f tn My doctor suggested Flonase, but I am allergic to sulfur (used a sulfur mask once and my whole face swelled huge, used to have to brush me teeth with sulfur water and my entire mouth would get blisters) and I noticed that Flonase contains sulfur in its makeup. Can I use it?
Avatar f tn Thank u so much! I just feel so bad when I don't use them I feel like I can't talk, eat and of course breath! But at the same time I get scared what if something happened to the baby. But thank god baby is healthy. :) and I'm not the only one.
Avatar f tn Flonase, is that for nasal congestion? I have tried it for chronic night time nasal congestion... it "sort of" works. Has it worked well for you, bump aside? I love Afrin, but it can not be used more than a few days in a row. I have pushed it too far and have suffered some rebound. I understand Flonase/Generic does not risk "rebound".
Avatar n tn //www.rxlist.com/flonase-drug.htm. Is this prescribed to decreases swelling or to attend to the sinus issue contributing to the swelling?
Avatar n tn I know benydrl is safe to take but not sure about anything eles. If you have bad allergys your doctor can prescribe you something. I remember with DS #2 I was on claritan (I think) and flonase nasal spray. I would talk with your doctor to get a better idea of whats safe or not.
Avatar f tn this is known as off labeling...where a drug is intended for one purpose but used for another....in this case insomnia......
Avatar f tn Hello and welcome to the forum. Thanks for your question, we appreciate it. Snoring is a common problem and there are some symptoms that can indicate sleep apnea. These include things like if you are tired during the day, you have a sore throat in the morning, you are restless at night, you have any chest pain, high blood pressure, etc. Those warrant doctor care right away to examine if sleep apnea is occurring and to begin treating it. https://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn I am on amoxicyllin for last 8 days now and also taking Flonase and singulair for asthma, I get 100-101 fever every evening. My CBC is normal and my doctor is not worried about my fever and thinks its because of sinus and allergies.
Avatar f tn Ent dr rules out allergies but I am not certain What else could I take for my ear thanks
Avatar f tn t been feeling well. You can always call and ask your doctor these questions for guidance. Flonase is known to reduce nasal inflammation over time. The best thing is to blow your nose prior to using it and then wait as long as you possibly can before blowing your nose again. The longer you wait, the better chance the Flonase has of being absorbed into your nasal cavity. The most common recommendation is 15 to 30 minutes to wait to blow your nose after using. https://www.webmd.
Avatar f tn I know this is old, but I am just curious if you ever figured out what was wrong? I have such a similar situation, almost exact, and I am looking for any advice or guidance. Thanks!
