I started taking this spray for congested nasals and it worked for a week. Then it started giving me heart palpitations and I thought it was stress due to a death in the family at the same time I started taking this. Then a few months later I walked in from the garage and my heart started to race really fast, I thought I was having a heart attack. I called 911 they picked me up and my heart rate was at 175 bpm. They never asked if I was on any perscriptions and I forgot to mention to them i was taking drixoral. Then 8 months passed since the racing heart incident. The racing heart started again and then I got really worried and couldn't move for 4 hrs. I went to my doctor the next day. My doctor then said throw the drixoral out as I had all the side effects from using it. So after over a year of taking this I'm still getting over the worriedness, racing heart and heart palpitations side effects. The worst two years of my life all because of this nasal spray. Just wanted to let everyone know about these side effects because I've never looked at side effects on the box before because I've never had to deal with side effects. Beware of side effects. Thanks for reading, take care!    -
