NASONEX WITHDRAWEL

KICKED OFF EMAIL...SENDING AGAIN - DELETE IF DUPLICATE
My son is 3 1/2. Diagnosed with mild asthma last October - biggest problem was runny nose since he was baby (raised on soy didn't start 1% organic milk until 2).  Tested for allergies and assumed it's pollution or air quality - Negative blood and scratch tests for all but cats...we have none.  Since October - Flovent for asthma has stopped his  cough which was excercise induced - Also runny nose caused the coughing.  Started on Rhinochort in October-went to Nasonex, it worked better.  Tried to discontinue medications in Feb and he had immediate symptoms again - returned to it. For the most part, both medications have resolved his symptoms.  I did notice over the last year he has been moodier/yells at us/crys over little things - but attributed to his age.  Live in notice over the last year he has been moodier/yells at us/crys over little things - but attributed to his age.  Live in Gilbert, AZ - air has been good since heat started - Took him off nasonex 3 weeks ago and after a week he started fevers/moodiness/not eating much/seems very mellow/today started bark cough from seemingly chest congestion/nose not runny.  Not himself....could it be withdrawal from the Nasonex?  What is a natural alternative?

Yes it is every time I stop Nasonex I get very ill and it will make you tired, stuffy nose, body aches & fever. Yes it will, each time I stop for 1-2 days. They went up on the price so I cant afford to keep buying hopefully my symptoms will go away soon.

Wouldn't think it would be withdrawals. He might have something else going on??? I would take him into doc for evaluation:) good luck
