Negative reactions to the Nasal Spray, Flonase

Has anyone had any negative reactions to the nasal spray, Flonase? I am curious because I got off the spray and felt much better, but most of the doctors I've talked to revere it as the "miracle spray". If you have, how long did you end up taking it and what were you're reactions?

They get perks to say that ...
I happen to have quite a few people close to me who are members of the drug racket called the pharmaceutical industry. I know there are amazing drugs out there saving lives and making people live more comfortably, but our nation is being drugged beyond excess.

I used Flonase for a while. Did an awesome job of controlling my SAR. (Seasonal Allergenic Rhinitis a.k.a. Hay Fever)

But it was hard on my schnoz. Nose was dry and painful. Lots of bloody noses.

These days, since I don't have NAMI to worry about, I chew 1 X childrens benedryl when my allergies act up. Helps and doesn't make me sleepy.

I'm on the magic flight doc Flonase/Allegra combo for indoor allergies, and it works great. That said, according to my doc, Flonase takes a week or two to work and will actually make things worse before it makes them better. Also, if you go off it it will do the same.

Exactly my experience. There's something in the Fallon area that predictably sets mine off pretty badly. Doc gives me Flonase, and yeah it works after a few days; but I spend the entire det with bloody noses and a mild sore throat for the time I'm using it. Been through the whole experience multiple times, and it's always the same.

Yeah, I took Flonase and have some Allegra but never needed it. I only shot up when my nose was going crazy and took care of things right away. Never used on a daily/regular schedule.

I use Flonase and haven't had any problems. If you just start taking it you'll have the bloody nose problem for a few days, but it goes away. The same thing happens if you stop taking it. I don't know about it being a miracle drug, but it definitely works for me.
