Flonase safe?

[Dignan]

I know this subject has been talked about before,and I've done a search specific to Flonase on this site, but didnt see anything too definitive, so I thought I'd ask others experiences.

I know those of us with E have to be careful with antihistamines and such, but I've been feeling sick for two weeks with drainage, which is giving me sore throats, and I wondered about Flonase. I looked it up and it didnt appear to an antihistamine.

So, I ask if those who have used it, or those that know, if Flonase is generally considered "safe" for those with seizures?

Flonase is a corticosteroid. As far as I can tell, it's considered safe for people with epilepsy (though you can always check with your pharmacist).

Some kinds of corticosteroids have actually been used to treat certain forms of epilepsy. See https://epilepsytalk.com/2015/06/14/seizures-and-steroids/

I use Flonase and don't have any issues with it. Hope you feel better.
