FLONASE, dry mouth: Flonase is a synthetic steroid , used as nasal spray. It can cause dryness of mouth, fungal infections and other side effects. A way to reduce the side effect of medication is to rinse the mouth thoroughly after using the spray. It is also possible that few symptoms of seasonal allergies are still there, not controlled by Flonase. If symptoms persist even after rinsing, please see your doctor.

Not likely: Flonase acts to reduce swelling and inflammation. To see mouth to reduce local irritation. Watch for white patches in the mouth.This may indicate a thrush infection.
