Ryaltris Nasal Spray: Has Anyone Noticed Worsening Tinnitus or Hyperacusis from It?

[Meyer37]

Ryaltris contains two active ingredients:

1. Olopatadine hydrochloride – an antihistamine that helps relieve allergy symptoms by blocking histamine receptors.
2. Mometasone furoate monohydrate – a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the nasal passages.

Has anyone who uses Ryaltris noticed any negative effects on their tinnitus or hyperacusis?

I used straight Mometasone Furoate nasal spray. I can't guarantee it was the cause of my symptoms over what might have happened naturally, but it definitely gave me extreme anxiety, and my newly onset tinnitus spiked massively from a 2 to a 10. However, since stopping the spray, my tinnitus has gradually gone down to a 1.

I also developed hyperacusis while using it, but again, I can't guarantee the spray was the cause—though my hyperacusis disappeared when I stopped. Unfortunately, I now seem to have noxacusis.

I should clarify that I'm fairly sensitive to medications. For example, antihistamines make me feel depressed if I take them for more than a few days, even though that wasn't listed as a side effect. That said, quite a few people report anxiety as a side effect of Mometasone Furoate online if you check the reviews on drugs.com.

So, short answer: if you need it, try it. I'm guessing I'm in the minority, as it's a fairly common medication, but be on the lookout for any changes.

Hi man,

Hopefully you are doing well. Im going through almost exactly the same thing now. I started momentasone 2 months ago and ended it in early march. It has been over a month and I still have the extreme loud pitch peep in both ears. I play it cool to friends and family but have been crying at night. This is the first time I see someone combining momentasone to the things im feeling now and Im so relieved in a way that im not completely ignored. As my doctor and ear specialist say that what im feeling is unheard off. I sprayed it completely wrong now looking back on it. How long did it take for it to gradually fade?

Kind Regards, Steven

You might want to educate your "specialist."

"Tinnitus has been reported as a side effect in people taking Mometasone Furoate, especially among those who are female, between 40 and 49 years old, have been taking the drug for less than one month, also take Singulair, and have a history of migraines."
