Indications & Clinical Uses

Mometasone furoate is a topical corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory conditions of the nasal passages.

  • Allergic rhinitis: relieves nasal congestion, itching, sneezing and rhinorrhea.
  • Nasal polyps: decreases polyp size and improves airflow after surgical removal.
  • Non‑allergic rhinitis: reduces mucosal edema and nasal discharge.

How It Works

  • Mometasone furoate binds to intracellular glucocorticoid receptors, forming a complex that translocates to the nucleus and modulates gene transcription. This action suppresses the production of pro‑inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules, leading to reduced vascular permeability, edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the nasal mucosa.

Side Effects

Mometasone furoate may cause local and systemic adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Nasal irritation or burning sensation.
  • Dryness of the nasal mucosa.
  • Epistaxis (nosebleeds).
  • Headache.
  • Altered taste or throat irritation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe or persistent nosebleeds.
  • Nasal septum perforation.
  • Adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use.
  • Opportunistic fungal infection of the nasal cavity.
  • Anaphylactic or severe allergic reactions.

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Mometasona Teva, consider the following safety measures.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare professional before use.
  • Breastfeeding: discuss potential risks with a physician.
  • Existing infections: evaluate for nasal or sinus infections prior to therapy.
  • Long‑term therapy: monitor for signs of adrenal suppression or cataract formation.
  • Children under 2 years: avoid unless specifically prescribed.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Avoid Interactions

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

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Systemic corticosteroids: may increase systemic glucocorticoid exposure.
  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): may raise local drug concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antihistamines: could enhance local irritation.
  • Intranasal antifungal agents: may alter absorption.
  • Live vaccines: consider timing of administration relative to steroid use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mometasona Teva contains mometasone furoate, a nasal corticosteroid indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps (post‑surgical maintenance), and non‑allergic rhinitis. It works by reducing inflammation of the nasal mucosa, helping to relieve congestion, itching, sneezing, and nasal discharge.

Mometasone furoate penetrates nasal epithelial cells and binds to glucocorticoid receptors. The drug‑receptor complex alters gene transcription, suppressing pro‑inflammatory cytokines and mediators. This leads to decreased vascular permeability, reduced edema, and inhibition of inflammatory cell recruitment, providing relief from nasal symptoms.

The specific dose and frequency of Mometasona Teva are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s age, condition severity, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and the product label without making any changes on their own.

Safety data for mometasone furoate nasal use in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before starting treatment.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying 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 (including any cold‑chain requirements), and necessary import documentation.

Mometasona Teva (mometasone furoate) is a high‑potency intranasal corticosteroid with a favorable safety profile when used at recommended doses. Compared with lower‑potency agents such as fluticasone or budesonide, mometasone often provides comparable symptom control with once‑daily dosing, but selection should be individualized based on patient response and physician preference.

Store Mometasona Teva at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Protect the product from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not freeze. Keep the nasal spray cap tightly closed when not in use to maintain sterility.

Mometasona Teva is a nasal spray. The prescribed number of sprays is delivered into each nostril, typically once daily, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional. Patients should avoid blowing the nose immediately after administration and should follow the device’s instructions for proper technique.

Serious but rare risks include severe nosebleeds, perforation of the nasal septum, adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use, opportunistic fungal infections of the nasal cavity, and systemic allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis. Patients should seek medical attention if they experience unusual bleeding, persistent pain, or signs of infection.

Mometasona Teva should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate or any excipients in the formulation. It is also contraindicated in patients with active, untreated nasal infections or in those for whom corticosteroid therapy is medically inadvisable without prior physician evaluation.
