Budesonide Nasal Spray (generic Rhinocort) Review

Why is Rhinocort Aqua prescribed?

Rhinocort Aqua is an anti-inflammatory steroid nasal spray. It is prescribed for relief of the symptoms of hay fever and similar allergic nasal inflammations.

What side effects may occur?

Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any develop or change in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can determine if it is safe for you to continue taking Rhinocort.

• More common side effects may include:
  Nosebleeds, sore throat

Most important fact about Rhinocort Aqua

Because steroids can suppress the immune system, people taking Rhinocort Aqua may become more susceptible to infections, and their infections could be more severe. Anyone taking Rhinocort Aqua or other corticosteroids who has not had infections such as chickenpox and measles should avoid exposure to them. If you are taking Rhinocort Aqua and are exposed, tell your doctor immediately.

Why should Rhinocort Aqua not be prescribed?

If you develop an infection of your nose and throat, stop using Rhinocort Aqua and call your doctor. If you already have tuberculosis or any other kind of infection, be sure your doctor knows about it.

Do not use Rhinocort Aqua if you have recently had nasal ulcers, nasal surgery or a nasal injury; this drug would slow the healing process. You will also need to avoid Rhinocort if it gives you an allergic reaction.

Special warnings about Rhinocort Aqua

If you have been taking a steroid in tablet form, such as prednisone, and are switched to Rhinocort Aqua, you may have symptoms of withdrawal, such as joint or muscle pain, lethargy, and depression. If you have been taking another steroid for a long time for asthma, your asthma may get worse if your medication is cut back too quickly. Using Rhinocort Aqua with another steroid drug can decrease the body's normal ability to make its own steroid chemicals.

Use this drug with caution in children and teenagers. It can affect their rate of growth.

Special information if you are pregnant or breastfeeding

In large doses, this drug has caused fetal harm in laboratory animals. If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, inform your doctor immediately. Rhinocort Aqua should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. The effect of this drug on nursing infants is also unknown, although we do know that similar drugs have been found in breast milk. It should be used with caution by women who breastfeed.
