potsyturvy Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I used to take Flonase and I took 2 sprays once a day. It still didn't really work for me (nor did any allergy med I've ever tried lol). I know for myself, I used to get nosebleeds when using nose sprays because they were drying. I'm not sure what the other side effects could be though. When I had the nosebleeds, I started using saline spray, though, to help keep things moist. If I was you, I would probably either wait on the ENT to call back or check with a pharmacist to make sure it's okay to increase your dose. Hope this helps!!

lloppyllama Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I do two sprays in each nostril everyday. The pediatric dose is one spray, then adult is two sprays...generally. And I have not found any side effects from this med, so I would guess no you wouldn't have side effects from upping your dosage, but everyone is different.
