Breathe Easier with Budesonide Nasal Spray

Budesonide nasal spray delivers fast relief from congestion and sinus pressure. The active ingredient budesonide reduces inflammation and opens nasal passages within hours, providing 12 hours of clearer breathing. Unlike oral decongestants, budesonide targets the source of symptoms – swollen nasal membranes. Don't let congestion slow you down. Ask your pharmacist if budesonide nasal spray is right for you.

Possible Side Effects

1. Nasal irritation: Budesonide nasal spray may cause temporary nasal irritation, burning, or itching. This is usually mild and subsides with continued use.
2. Nosebleeds: Some individuals may experience occasional nosebleeds while using budesonide nasal spray. If nosebleeds become frequent or severe, consult a healthcare professional.
3. Headache: Headaches are a possible side effect of budesonide nasal spray, although they are generally mild and temporary.
4. Sore throat: In some cases, budesonide nasal spray may cause a mild sore throat. Gargling with water after using the spray can help alleviate this symptom.
5. Coughing or dryness in the throat: Budesonide nasal spray may occasionally cause coughing or a dry sensation in the throat. This side effect is usually temporary and improves with continued use.
6. Unpleasant taste or smell: Some people may experience an altered taste or smell after using budesonide nasal spray. This effect is generally mild and temporary.
7. Allergic reactions: Although rare, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to budesonide nasal spray. Signs of an allergic reaction may include hives, rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing. If any of these symptoms occur, seek immediate medical attention.
8. Nasal septum perforation: Prolonged use of high doses of budesonide nasal spray may, in rare cases, lead to thinning or perforation of the nasal septum (the tissue that separates the nostrils). This risk is higher with long-term use or misuse of the medication.
9. Eye problems: Budesonide nasal spray may rarely cause eye problems, such as increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, or cataracts. These side effects are more likely to occur with long-term or excessive use.
10. Growth effects in children: Long-term use of budesonide nasal spray at high doses may potentially affect growth in children. Regular monitoring of growth is recommended for children using this medication.

It is important to note that these side effects are not experienced by everyone, and many individuals who use budesonide nasal spray do not experience any adverse effects. If you have any concerns or experience persistent or severe side effects, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.
