Fluticasone headache

Common Questions and Answers about Fluticasone headache


Avatar n tn HI, Flonase or Fluticasone propionate is a corticosteroid used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as corticosteroids. It works by reducing swelling (inflammation) in the nasal passages. Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Long term self use is not recommended. Side effects like severe nosebleeds, pain in your nose, eye pain, nasal burning or irritation and headaches can occur. Consult your Doctor.
Avatar n tn This should be done under strict guidance by a specialist, preferably a headache specialist, or else the headache will not improve and withdrawal side effects can occur. It looks like you have had these headaches for 7 years with a predominantly unsuccessful treatment regimen. I would highly suggest you be seen by a headache specialist (i.e., a neurologist who has been trained additionally in treating headaches).
Avatar m tn Just as things seemed to get better, I had a little of my energy back, I now have three days worth of headache between the eyebrows. Last two days it came as the day went on, but woke up with the headache today and it's been prevalent all day long. Please advise if you have an answer. Thanks.
Avatar m tn She prescribed a corticosteroid nasal spray (fluticasone propionate) that seemed to help, though the problem never fully disappeared. My family and I then made a planned intercontinental trip--we live in the US, but were planning to spend an extended period of time in Europe. Within a week or so after arrival in France, the bilateral ear fullness returned, this time more intense in the right ear (I had no problems during the flight here).
Avatar n tn just tried fluticasone propionate for the first time and instantly my ears filled with fluid and a post nasal drip started. Is this normal?
Avatar n tn Nausea and headache have been reported as common side effects of Advair™ Diskus® (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Powder, as has an unpleasant taste or smell. These symptoms can vary in frequency and intensity, somewhat, depending on the time of day the medicine is taken. Dizziness has not been associated with this medicine. Advair™ Diskus® (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Powder comes in 3 steroid strengths: 100 mcg, 250 mcg and 500 mcg.
Avatar m tn I had PVCs while walking the dogs. Headache is bad. I did not have my fluticasone last night to take it so that could be why sinuses and headache are worse today. I got more today. Last year I see that when the alternaria was around 200 I had similar symptoms. It was close to 200 all last week, not just one or 2 days like last year. So, it's probably my allergies which are causing my problems at least partly.
2017838 tn?1330601750 I'm male 5'10 180 25 years and could be considered as a healthy I'm from Chicago and I was having pressure in my face especially my forehead and upper cheeks, fever,headache and an irritated ears. I went to a clinic that is part of CVS and I was diagnosed with sinus infection last Sunday. the following was prescribed: Amoxicillin (875 mg oral tablet) 2 times a day Nasal Saline (every 3 hours) Ibruprofen (200 mg) every 6-8 hours there is improvement except for ear popping.
Avatar f tn Hi Doctor, I began to heavy colds ( terribly blocked nose and headache n slight sore throat) regularly, and had my blood tested (CBC &ESR) and the esnophilia count was very high. I took the medication for it for 21 days and was fine for a few weeks, I began to get colds again, and got my blood tested again, and the dr asked me to use a Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray evry day for a month.
Avatar f tn I've taken 2 doses so far and after each dose I've experienced a headache and a tingling sensation on my lips and a burning sensation on my tongue. I've rinised after each use. I didn't really want to try Advair after reading all the side effects but its helped some. I'm not taking the Singular right now...don't really think I need it and Advair both. I'm not wheezing or anything like that. My mother also has breathing problems and was prescribed Advair and her tongue swelled.
Avatar n tn While it is possible that the Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) could have had something to do with your developing shingles, it is very unlikely. The risk of death you mention is a very, very small risk. Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) is generally well tolerated by most people with asthma but more than a few side effects have been reported, especially with the dose that contains the highest amount of fluticasone.
Avatar m tn My blood pressure is finaly normal and the syncope episodes are gone but i have a headache on my forehead that wont go away even with over the counter meds. My doctor says in time the headaches will go away. I also seem to get a runny nose everytime i take the midodrine. Just want to see if anyone has had similar expieriences. I have only been on it for 2 weeks now and taking 2.5 mg in the morning and late afternoon.
Avatar m tn I tried aerius, fluticasone nose spray, and some others. Other than that, the last year in september I have been diagnosed with erosive gastritis, esophagitis and bile lake. I have tried different types of meds, Lansox, Pantoprazol, and Zantac (which I am taking now) but not much seems to change. I'm trying to understand now wether the headache is given by my bent septum/allergy or by my stomach, before I have surgery. I have been feeling like this since 2009, and it never got better.
Avatar n tn but i still face nasal blockage. m kinda of dizzy for whole day n have headache. no mucous discharge not even in cold. i had been prescribed mometasone furoate, n before this steroid i had fluticasone n even budesonide before that. i underwent many endoscopy procedure n consulted many doctors. they say the passage is totally fine. but i still face face nasal blockage..! could anyone suggest me something..?
Avatar m tn I have already changed meds twice, as they didn’t seem to work. I tried aerius, fluticasone nose spray, and some others. About my headaches, they’re ‘pulsating’, as my heart pulses, I have this pulsating sensation in my head too, and it seems to be sort of coordinated with my heartbeat. After an hour or two, the headache usually tends to diminuish, but then increases randomly during the day. It feels as though I always have it, but its intensity changes.
Avatar f tn If your headache has been constant since 2008, and you are on multiple medications, which it sounds like you are, one of the most common causes of headaches in people with chronic headaches is called medication rebound or medication overuse headache. This would not be the initial cause of your headache, but what is perpetuating your headache and making it worse.
Avatar m tn On Dec. 4th, 2012 I developed what felt like a double headache. In the front of my head and over the top part of the head and my sinuses stop draining. Since then I have had two MRI's and a cat scan. The finding are Empty Sella and Minimal Paranasel Sinus Desease and mild mucosal thickening in some of the Paranasal Sinuses. I still have the top head pressure/headache and no or very little sinus drainage.
Avatar m tn Besides sinus headache, tension headache and migraine should be ruled out. Ideally an MRI or MRA is done for headache that does not respond to medication. If the headache subsides on its own or on taking medicines, MRI is usually not necessary. Hope that this information helps and hope that you will get better soon.

Avatar n tn I do have a headache behind my eyes and feel tired a lot, but I had that before too. Common side effects of Nasonex are fatigue, headaches, a lowered immune system (not good) and others too. A few people I know who have used this for a year or more mentioned that they got palpitations, and one friend said his PVCs increased. But one can't be sure whether the PVCs increased because of the Nasonex. I already have quite a few PVCs a day and don't need more.
Avatar n tn 28 yrs old male, non-smoker. had cold 4 weeks ago. took me 3 days 2 recover by takin OC med. had some pain in my ear + headache. ear canal was red (infected&fluid in middle ear)and pain in sinuses. took 14 days of Augmentin & Guaifenex 2x. same time started allergy nasal (fluticasone). Had a thin blood one day in my spit. changed it to Nasonex. taking Clartin once a day. Problem: cold is gone but, the throat is red (purple) and itchy,dry.
Avatar n tn 5mg/day - seemed to work somewhat, but killed my stomach. - Fluticasone 50mcg*4 shots/day - alleviates the running nose a lot, but still need a kleenex every 30 mins or so, and no sense of smell. This is the doc-approved thing to use. - Prednisone 10mg/day - WORKS! At least when the weather is hot (been taking it for 6 days: 3*20mg, 3*10mg). Prednisone makes all symphtoms dissapear most of the time.
Avatar n tn hi im female and 26 yrs old now. i have this feeling right now such as headache, pressure of the eyes, and nasal congestion. sometimes it affects of the tooth. it feels that my head had water inside. and i cant sleep if i will not elevate my pillows. I think i have this acute sinusitis. Before 2 yrs ago i was undergo by nasal endoscopy. and doctor found out something wrong with my nose so he recommends to used nasal spray.
Avatar m tn Today I feel the same but now it's more a headache. The nose bridge hurts, but no so much. It's exactly the same feeling you have when after working for too many hours before the PC. I've been working hard with the PC, but I took breaks now. Anyway, I feel a little bit tired and with these feelings. When I feel the pain on the nose it comes and goes some times and it just feels in the bone area. I wouldn't say deep inside the nose area. Also, my nose is clear. No mucus at all.
Avatar f tn She perscribed me fluticasone propionate nasal spray. It did clear me up but I was noticing that it was making my nose feel like it had mucus build up. When I blew my nose the mucus was bloody. I knew that bloody nose is one of the side effects and having never experienced a bloody nose in my 34 years on earth, I was immediately turned off by the idea that I may consequently experience one due to the nasal spray. I stopped using it.
Avatar f tn Thanks for your reply. Other symptoms are weight loss, headache upon rising in the morning but goes away during the day, my saliva in the morning is sometimes mixed with small spot of old colored blood together with the bitter taste light yellow color. Thanks for your advise to see a doctor. Just today I've seen ENT doc and he has prescribed me antibiotic for 10 days and after that is 2 months of spray in both nostrils.
Avatar f tn I suspected Sinusitis after having a headache and pressure/fullness for about a month and a half. Also during that time period, my nose was extremely dry, i never had any boogers/mucus.(rarely had very very small, hard ones that i had to pick out with a tissue) so.... I called my doctor and he prescribed me Zithromax and Fluticasone nasal spray. 2 weeks after taking that antibiotic, my symptoms got even worse.
Avatar f tn Hey thanks, I have a follow up Monday the 10th. I will see where I am at after that, I do have Fluticasone Propionate, but maybe I should be treating more with it. I was a little nervouse about them being a steriod. If no progress, I will see a ENT.
Avatar m tn The features of acute sinusitis are fever, headache (pressure or pain behind the eyes, toothache, or facial tenderness), nasal congestion, nasal discharge, bad breath or loss of smell, cough, sore throat and postnasal drip. Whereas in chronic sinusitis the features are almost similar but not associated with fever or any life threatening symptoms.
Avatar m tn After finally getting the diagnosis I was sent to an ENT who looked up my nose gave me a spray steroid and decongestant and oral steroids and that I would be fine in a few days. My symptoms of fever, major fatigue, nausea, headache, sinus pain and pressure would just magically go away. They did not. I was then given sulpha drugs for a 10 day course and started feeling better but by day 8 started to get worse again. I was then given azithromycin for 5 days which negligibly helped.
1256468 tn?1269410365 My ear pressure is sometimes worse when I have one of these, but the rest of my symptoms can vary during a headache. Fluid in my ear, usually my right one, can often be felt moving around. I seem to feel this everyday at random times. Over the last month, I have noticed an occasional problem in my chest. I will suddenly get a sinking sensation in my chest and feel very dizzy, and then the problem will subside and I will only have my typical unsteadiness.
