Growth inhibition has been reported in children when therapeutic doses are used; in long-term use, especially with combined inhalation therapy for asthma, check the growth and if there is growth inhibition attempt to reduce the dose and refer to the paediatrician. The lowest possible dose must be used in children if long-term use of nasal corticosteroids in children is necessary.

Following systemic effects are possible, especially in children after using higher doses over a longer period of time: mental or behavioral changes, including psychomotor hyperactivity, insomnia, anxiety, depression, or aggression (SmPC).
