Nasonex Side Effects
The most common side effects associated with nasal mometasone furoate are headache, nasal irritation, sneezing, and, occasionally, bleeding from the nose. Nasal septal perforation, fungal infection of the nose, and disturbances of taste and smell have been reported. Higher doses of mometasone may cause suppression of the body's ability to make its own natural glucocorticoid in the adrenal gland. People with suppression of their adrenal glands (which can be diagnosed by a doctor) would need increased amounts of glucocorticoids, probably by the oral or intravenous route, during periods of high physical stress or acute illness when glucocorticoids are particularly important. Intranasal steroids may cause growth suppression, weaken the immune system, and may increase the risk of glaucoma, and cataracts. Allergic reactions, including swelling of face, throat and tongue, as well as rash, hives, and breathing problems may occur.
It seems that no one can make up their minds regarding the personal importation of prescription medication. It's illegal, it's not illegal, you can import for personal use, you can't import for personal use, you can can import up to 3 months supply, you can't import up to 3 months supply.. Wherever you look there seems to be be an abundance of conflicting information.
According to the FDA, you are not allowed to import medications for personal use. HOWEVER, if you do decide to import for personal use under the direction of a valid prescription then the FDA are likely to ignore it and its OK. Confused?!
There’s a fine line than can be drawn when talking about prescription medication and personal importation. It’s hard to know what the law actually is and how the drugs policies will affect you if you cross them.
