Suggest Remedy For Headache And Sneezing While On Budesonide

I just had sinus surgery for the second time and my doctor has prescribed Budesonide. Inhalation suspension. I am supposed to put this in a syringe and squirt in each nostril twice a day. I have been having more headaches and sneezing and feel more pain after using this. I don t have asthma or anything I can see this drug is used for. Can I stop taking this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

No, unless you discuss it further with your treating doctor. Budesonide used as a maintenance treatment after sinus surgery and your headache and sneezing probably caused by this drugs.

To reduce the pain you can take Acetaminophen, and to reduce the sneezing you can take Chlorpheniramine. Routinely meet your treating doctor to be further evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
