Re: Do steroids cause nose bleeds?

[Guest guest]

I am currently on 55mg/day ( & have been continuously on steroids since

May) and I have never had a nose bleed.

I was diagnosed with Asthma a couple years ago I had a couple nose

bleeds when I was taking the steroids. I'm on Aerobid. The VA only

has 3 steroids, one is Aerobid, one is the oral steriod, and the

otherone I can't think of right now either.

About 12 years ago I was put on Nasonex...have been using it ever

since. The reason the doctor put me on it was the severe nose bleeds I

was having. It is funny because one of the side effects of Nasonex is

nose bleeds, but I started using it, and it cleared my problem up. I

still get nose bleeds, but it usually occurs when there is cold dry

weather, and they are nothing like before...I had one episode that

lasted all night long. Nasonex has steroid in it.

9x's out of 10 a nose bleed comes from a few different things, a thin lining in the sinus membrane, and dry air. For those who are prone to nose bleeds that's not much you can do but keep a tissue handy at all times. However it's been proven that Nasonex can help keep the passages from drying out and also a sinus rinse a day or a daily mist spray up your nose can also help! JMO

thanks Terry for your response. Sometimes I give what happens to me,

and do not know if anyone relates...I just know I trusted the doctor

and started my nasonex regimen. I also know the bad bloody noses

stopped about two weeks after I started using it. I had lived in

Phoenix then, and was doing a job outdoors...lots of pollution and

dust. I still get bloody noses, but I am thinking that I have thin

linings...another symptom of menopause...my skin is thinning. What I

had went to the doctor for then was severe bloody noses.

happy holidays!!
