Hello! My 3 year old son has been taking Apo-mometasome on a daily basis since last June. This morning he had an important nosebleed.
Is it possible that this is due to the medication? Should I stop or continue giving him the medication? Thank you for your help!

Good morning, ma'am,
This is a possible side effect of this medication. However, it can also happen if he blows his nose often.
It may be suggested to suspend the product for a few days to give the mucous membranes a chance to heal. Using a moisturizing spray can also help.
If the problem becomes recurrent, I suggest talking to your pharmacist who can suggest alternatives to your doctor.
I hope I've been helpful, so please don't hesitate if you have any other questions!
