Two weeks ago I started Flonase.After the first day I became achy all over. Thought I had the flu. On the third day of using it I wasn't able to sleep. I was restless, nervous. I believe it may have interacted with my Zyrtec that I take for chronic hives. I took both meds at bedtime which was probably a mistake. After the third day of using it I got a sore throat. Not scratchy or raw but really sore. It hurts when I swallow. I have had the sore throat for nearly 2 weeks now. I also got a yeast infection about a week after I used the product. I used a 3 day treatment for that and hope it is gone, even though I still have a little irritation from the yeast infection. Needless to say, I won't use Flonase again, apparently my body can not tolerate it.

horrible headaches, about three to four a week that don't really respond to excedrin or Tylenol. also insomnia! never had any problem falling off to sleep and now it's extremely difficult to fall asleep and stay that way. the only thing that has changed in my routine is flonase. beginning to suspect flonase is the cause and will stop taking it. every time i start back up on it again i go through this cycle again (this is the 2nd cycle). started back in October after visit to ent for chronic congestion. the congestion was bad, but at least i could go with out horrible blinding headaches and could sleep, that poor man's medicine.
