Hi and thanks for the query, There is no actual contraindication with its use. You could go ahead in using other Chat Doctor.  The concern or steroids causing immune depression to affect the inflammatory or immune response in this case, due to the Florist is out of question. The amount of steroid contained in it is too low to cause immune depression and real interactions have actually been described with associating with usually used antibiotics in managing this condition. You can appropriately use the spray at the time you have a cold. Colds are generally viral in origin, and for reasons mentioned above, no big interactions to interfere with efficacy or course of illness is actually present. But other specific measures for colds (keeping warm, nasal decongestants or wash, analgesics) could be safely used. Best regards, Bain LE, MD.
