Indications & Clinical Uses

Mometasone furoate nasal spray is used to treat inflammatory conditions of the nasal passages by reducing local immune response.

  • Allergic rhinitis: alleviates nasal congestion, itching, sneezing and rhinorrhea.
  • Nasal polyposis (post‑surgical): helps prevent recurrence of polyps after endoscopic sinus surgery.
  • Non‑allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal inflammation and improves airflow.

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 release of pro‑inflammatory cytokines, reduces vascular permeability, and inhibits leukocyte infiltration, resulting in localized anti‑inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects within the nasal mucosa.

Side Effects

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

Common Side Effects

  • Nasal irritation or burning sensation.
  • Epistaxis (nosebleeds).
  • Headache.
  • Throat dryness.
  • Cough.
  • Unpleasant taste.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Nasal septal perforation.
  • Secondary fungal or bacterial infections of the nasal cavity.
  • Elevated intra‑ocular pressure or glaucoma.
  • Adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use.
  • Systemic corticosteroid effects such as hyperglycemia.

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Mometasone furoate nasal spray, consider the following safety measures.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare professional; safety data are limited.
  • Breastfeeding: discuss potential risks with a physician.
  • Existing infections: avoid use if active nasal or sinus infections are present.
  • Surgery: discontinue prior to nasal or sinus surgery to reduce bleeding risk.
  • Long‑term use: monitor for signs of adrenal suppression or ocular pressure changes.
  • Store at below 25°C: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Avoid Interactions

Mometasone furoate nasal spray can interact with other medications that affect corticosteroid metabolism or increase infection risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Systemic CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir) that may increase systemic exposure.
  • Live vaccines: concurrent use may reduce vaccine efficacy.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antifungal agents (e.g., fluconazole) that modestly raise corticosteroid levels.
  • Immunosuppressants (e.g., azathioprine) that may heighten infection risk.
  • Nasal decongestants: combined use may increase local irritation.
  • Other intranasal corticosteroids: avoid duplicate therapy to prevent excess exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mometasonfuroaat Teva contains mometasone furoate, a corticosteroid indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, prevention of nasal polyp recurrence after surgery, and relief of symptoms associated with non‑allergic rhinitis. It works locally in the nasal passages to reduce inflammation and improve breathing.

Mometasone furoate binds to glucocorticoid receptors inside nasal mucosal cells, altering gene expression to suppress inflammatory cytokines, reduce vascular leakage, and limit immune cell infiltration. This localized anti‑inflammatory action diminishes swelling, mucus production, and nasal congestion.

The prescribed dose of Mometasonfuroaat Teva is determined by the treating clinician based on the patient’s age, severity of symptoms, and specific indication. Patients should follow the dosing instructions provided on the prescription label and by their healthcare professional.

Safety data for mometasone furoate nasal spray 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 using the product.

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 furoate is a high‑potency intranasal corticosteroid with a favorable safety profile due to minimal systemic absorption. Compared with agents such as fluticasone or budesonide, it offers comparable efficacy for allergic rhinitis while often requiring a lower daily dose, which may reduce the risk of systemic side effects.

Store the nasal spray at temperatures below 25 °C (77 °F) in its original packaging. Protect it from moisture, excessive heat and direct sunlight. Do not freeze the product, and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use.

Mometasonfuroaat Teva is administered as a nasal spray. The patient tilts the head slightly forward, inserts the nozzle into one nostril, and sprays the prescribed number of sprays while breathing in gently. The process is repeated in the other nostril if directed by the prescriber.

Serious risks, though rare, include nasal septal perforation, secondary fungal or bacterial infections of the nasal cavity, elevated intra‑ocular pressure leading to glaucoma, and systemic corticosteroid effects such as adrenal suppression when used at high doses for prolonged periods.

Patients with known hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate or any component of the formulation should avoid the product. It is also contraindicated in individuals with active untreated nasal or sinus infections, recent nasal surgery without physician clearance, or those who are using other intranasal corticosteroids without medical supervision.
