The meds are compounded and mailed by Sinucare, also called Home Care Solutions. The bottle clearly says 1.0mg/ml, and what was currently prescribed was 0.25mg/ml. I'm not even sure what happened in March--did the doctor really prescribe 1.0mg/ml, or did he prescribe 0.1mg/ml, and they dispensed something 10 times stronger.

So, I've developed total adrenal suppression, with resultant pituitary suppression, twice during the past year of supposed healing from the surgery.

And now, as I pack for vacation, I know why I'm tired, but damn, I am ******.

I'm thinking the pharmacist, when seeing the 1.0mg/ml dose in March, refilled each month, should have called the ENT to confirm this was what was wanted.

Mrs D-Can you find the usual dosages of this particular steroid advised for use in nasal sprays?
