A member asked:
If i overuse nasacort (triamcinolone) (4 times a day for 5 days) will the steroids enter my body/bloodstream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely not: Nasalcort is a steroid that may enter your systemic blood after over-spraying into your nostrils. However, there would be no lasting effects at the dose you used. Hopefully, it helped relieve your nasal symtoms. Get well and please check with your doc.
