Dymista and Chicken pox

[elanaoali]

I been working in a primary where there has been a large outbreak of chicken pox. I used dymista nasal and there is a warning in the leaflet "More serious or even fatal course of chickenpox or measles in susceptible patients". I have had chickenpox as a child so probably would be highly unlikely to get it again. Has anyone been in contact with chicken pox and contracted chicken pox while using dymista .

I’m on Dymista and was in contact with chicken pox. I’d had it as a child so wasn’t bothered, as I think the chance of getting it again is remote. In fact I was also on oral steroids at the time, but still wasn’t worried because my gp has previously told me I’d have to be on quite a high dose of steroids for it to be a problem.

I’m on Dymista and wasn’t aware of this. Sorry I can’t help but just to say I’d be interested in any responses, although I also had chicken pox as a child. My husband had Shingles but don’t know if that counts! Is it the steroid element of that causes the risk?
