Indications & Clinical Uses

Mometasone Eg is a nasal corticosteroid that targets inflammatory processes of the upper airway.

  • Allergic rhinitis: relieves nasal congestion, itching, sneezing and rhinorrhea caused by seasonal or perennial allergens.
  • Nasal polyps: decreases polyp size and improves airflow, reducing obstruction and associated symptoms.
  • Non‑allergic rhinitis: mitigates chronic nasal inflammation and associated discharge or congestion.

How It Works

  • Mometasone Furoate acts as an agonist of the glucocorticoid receptor in nasal mucosal cells, leading to transcriptional repression of pro‑inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules. This reduces vascular permeability, edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration, thereby decreasing nasal mucosal swelling and secretions.

Side Effects

Mometasone Eg may cause local and systemic adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects

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

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Nasal septal perforation
  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis)
  • Vision changes or cataract formation
  • Adrenal suppression with prolonged use
  • Fungal infection of the nasal passages
  • Increased intra‑ocular pressure

Precautions & Warnings

Before initiating therapy with Mometasone Eg, consider the following safety measures.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare professional; benefits must outweigh potential risks.
  • Elderly patients: monitor for systemic corticosteroid effects due to altered metabolism.
  • Recent nasal surgery or trauma: avoid use until complete healing to prevent impaired wound repair.
  • Active nasal infection: defer treatment until infection is resolved to avoid exacerbation.
  • Concomitant systemic corticosteroids: limit duration to reduce cumulative glucocorticoid exposure.

Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and heat.

Avoid Interactions

Mometasone Eg can interact with other medicines that affect corticosteroid activity or metabolism.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Systemic corticosteroids: additive glucocorticoid effects may increase systemic exposure.
  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole): may raise local or systemic mometasone levels.
  • Immunosuppressants: heightened risk of infection when combined with nasal corticosteroids.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antihistamines: may increase local irritation or dryness.
  • Nasal decongestants (e.g., oxymetazoline): concurrent use may affect mucosal healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mometasone Eg is a nasal corticosteroid indicated for the management of allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps, and non‑allergic rhinitis. It works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages, helping to relieve congestion, sneezing, itching, and nasal discharge associated with these conditions.

Mometasone Furoate binds to glucocorticoid receptors in nasal mucosal cells, suppressing the transcription of inflammatory genes. This decreases the production of cytokines, chemokines, and other mediators that cause swelling and mucus production, leading to reduced nasal inflammation and symptom relief.

The appropriate dose of Mometasone Eg is 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 for the correct number of sprays per day.

Safety of Mometasone Eg in pregnancy or while breastfeeding has not been definitively established. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before using this medication.

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.

Mometasone Eg belongs to the same class as other nasal corticosteroids such as fluticasone and budesonide. It offers comparable anti‑inflammatory efficacy with a once‑daily dosing regimen for many patients, and its high receptor affinity may provide effective symptom control at low doses.

Mometasone Eg should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Keep the product away from moisture, direct sunlight, and heat sources to maintain its stability and potency.

Mometasone Eg is administered as a nasal spray. The patient should gently blow the nose, insert the spray tip into one nostril, close the opposite nostril, and press the pump while breathing in gently through the nose. The recommended number of sprays per day is set by the prescriber.

Serious risks, though rare, include nasal septal perforation, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use, and increased intra‑ocular pressure that could affect vision. Patients should seek medical attention if they notice unusual bleeding, persistent nosebleeds, or visual changes.

Mometasone Eg 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 nasal infections or recent nasal surgery until healing is complete.
