Is Nasonex safe for infants?

I know we all trust physicians after all they went to school. However the pharmaceutical companies tell the Dr's what is new on the market and give them free sample to push. therefore when they push these drugs it makes the pharmaceutical company's increase revenues which in hand makes the government happy to tax that. I would not give my baby any form wot soever of this drug if you read or know about it. I know you trust your Dr. I worked as a pharmacy tech. Most infants and children under age age of 2 should not have adult meds. In extreme cases they do it. Dr's do not have all the end all cause of diseases or the whys and why nots. Some children have allergies and have not out grow them some when their bodies haven't full developed the immunity to life yet will be allergic to meds.Doesn't this make sense their little systems are still pure innocent and developing how can they intake a drug so heavy? When the package clearly states.. do not take if your breast feeding do not take if you are pregnant as this may harm the baby. hm... Neither Zyrtec or nasonex helped me. If you went to a homeopathy chiropractor they have natural ways of taking care of allergies. Without the side effects of the meds. However again ppl have allergies to herbs but.. they have foods to avoid suggestions they have environmental factors they tell you about how come . there may be something in your home the baby is allergic too. animals insulation paints carpeting right down to the humidity in the air if u have a dry home you will be having to much dust there so get an air purifier. Not once did you mention if an allergist specialist tested for things in your home the air the foods. You cant go wrong with an air purifier. Fabrics scent you are wearing all those factors can trigger off her sickness. So keep the house dust free get the machine for clean air do not wear fragrance on your skin around this baby do not smoke.. give her foods with NON toxic preservatives- narrow foods down go to an allergist to test her for foods. Often childhood allergies are food and home related. not viral. Those meds try to relieve the symptoms the dr gives u they do not cure. Find the culprit. Investigate. Please.Doesn't this makes sense the child is brand new the environment is polluted to degree and all she breathes and eats. get a radon detector as well use natural fabrics and foods as you can.

The safety of drugs is always topical, and it is always down to the Doctor on weather it is safe or not. Personaly if it is allergies using antihistamine based drugs would have been a better option but without an examination im only throwing it out there. As a note, side effects refer to many things and side effects with corticosteroids are very uncommon. The most common one with nasonex is headaches. I would suggest you raise your concerns with your doctor and ask what alternatives are available.
