Indications & Clinical Uses

Mometasone furoate nasal spray acts on the inflammatory pathways of allergic rhinitis and related nasal congestion.

  • Allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal mucosal inflammation, relieving sneezing, itching and runny nose.
  • Nasal congestion due to allergic rhinitis: improves airflow and decreases blockage.
  • Seasonal allergic rhinitis: controls symptoms triggered by pollen or other seasonal allergens.

How It Works

  • Mometasone furoate binds to intracellular glucocorticoid receptors, forming a complex that translocates to the nucleus and suppresses transcription of pro‑inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules. This inhibition reduces vascular permeability and inflammatory cell infiltration in the nasal mucosa, leading to decreased swelling and symptom relief.

Side Effects

Mometasone furoate nasal spray may cause local and systemic adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Nasal irritation or burning sensation
  • Headache
  • Epistaxis (nosebleed)
  • Throat irritation or dryness
  • Cough
  • Altered taste or bitter taste

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Nasal septal perforation
  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis)
  • Vision changes or cataract formation
  • Adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use
  • Opportunistic fungal infection of the nasal passages

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Mometasona Furoato Teva, consider the following safety measures.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare provider before initiating therapy.
  • Pediatric use: safety not established in children younger than 2 years.
  • Recent nasal surgery: avoid use within two weeks of the procedure.
  • Concurrent systemic corticosteroids: monitor for additive systemic effects.
  • Avoid spray contact with eyes.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and heat.

Avoid Interactions

Mometasone furoate nasal spray can interact with other medications; review the following.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Systemic corticosteroids: increased risk of systemic glucocorticoid effects.
  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): may raise local drug exposure.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antihistamines: may enhance overall antihistaminic effect.
  • Nasal decongestant sprays: could increase local irritation.
  • Antifungal nasal preparations: potential additive irritation of nasal mucosa.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mometasona Furoato Teva is a nasal spray containing mometasone furoate that is indicated for the relief of symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis, including nasal congestion, sneezing, itching and runny nose. It is used in both seasonal and perennial forms of the condition.

Mometasone furoate acts as a potent glucocorticoid receptor agonist. After binding to the receptor inside nasal epithelial cells, it modulates gene expression to suppress the production of inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and other mediators, thereby reducing swelling and irritation of the nasal mucosa.

The specific dose and frequency are determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s age, severity of symptoms and response to therapy. Typical regimens involve one or two sprays per nostril once daily, but the exact regimen should always follow the healthcare professional’s instructions.

Safety data in pregnancy and lactation are limited. The product should only be used if the potential benefit justifies any possible risk to the fetus or infant. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding should discuss use with their healthcare provider.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com with the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Mometasone furoate is a high‑potency corticosteroid with a low systemic bioavailability, offering effective symptom control at low daily doses. Compared with agents such as fluticasone propionate, it provides similar anti‑inflammatory efficacy but may have a slightly longer residence time in the nasal mucosa, allowing once‑daily dosing for many patients.

Store the nasal spray at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the device in its original packaging until use, and ensure the cap is tightly closed after each administration to maintain product stability.

Prime the spray by pressing the actuator several times until a fine mist appears. Gently blow the nose, tilt the head slightly forward, insert the tip into one nostril, close the opposite nostril with a finger, and spray the prescribed number of sprays while breathing in gently. Repeat in the other nostril if directed.

Serious adverse events, although rare, include nasal septal perforation, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use, and opportunistic fungal infections of the nasal passages. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they notice persistent nosebleeds, vision changes, or signs of systemic corticosteroid effects.

The spray should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate or any component of the formulation. It is also contraindicated in patients with active untreated fungal, viral or bacterial infections of the nasal mucosa, and in children younger than the age specified by the local regulatory authority.
