> Hi there, anything is possible. I use Nasacort AQ. I've also used a few others...To answer your question, no, I haven't experienced depression after I stopped using a corticosteroid nasal spray. Have you checked the professional prescribing reference or talked to a pharmacist? I'm sure you have. Maybe restart Zoloft...(?)...Best of luck to you.

> This too will pass...Peace.Unfortunately my sleeping has become so borked now that I've been sleeping through normal business hours. More googling did reveal more sources that comment on depression being a withdrawal side effect of corticosteroids (although I'm not positive whether they're strictly reffering to systemic drugs). Now that I look back, I did feel very aggitated and depressed when I missed three consecutive doses of Flonase over Christmas break. I didn't think much of it at the time, but now that its happened twice it kind of seems suspisious.
