I tried this medication for the first time tonight and felt immediate severe burning feeling in my nose, down my throat, and the roof of my mouth. It was terrible and I will never use this again. There is no mention in any of the included paperwork of this effect.

When I began this nasal spray, I experienced so much nasal and head pain that I didn't want to take another dose. I tried again the next day and the same thing happened, only more intense and stopped altogether.
