Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Nasonex, a nasal corticosteroid, is used to manage inflammatory conditions of the nasal passages.
  • Allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal congestion, sneezing, itching and rhinorrhea.
  • Nasal polyps: decreases polyp size and improves nasal airflow.

How It Works

  • Mometasone furoate binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the nasal mucosa, modulating gene transcription to suppress production of inflammatory cytokines, reduce edema, and inhibit immune cell activation, thereby decreasing local inflammation and symptom severity.

Side Effects

Nasonex may cause a range of adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Nasal irritation or burning sensation
  • Headache
  • Epistaxis (nosebleed)
  • Throat irritation

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Nasal septal perforation
  • Vision changes such as blurred vision
  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis)

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Nasonex, consider the following precautions.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare provider as safety has not been fully established.
  • Pediatric use: use only as prescribed; safety established for children aged 2 years and older.
  • Active infections: monitor for fungal or bacterial infections of the nasal passages.
  • Concomitant systemic corticosteroids: avoid excessive cumulative corticosteroid exposure.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original packaging, protect from moisture and heat, and do not freeze.

Avoid Interactions

Nasonex can interact with other medicines; review the following.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors: may increase systemic exposure to mometasone.
  • Systemic immunosuppressants: additive risk of immunosuppression.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antifungal azoles (e.g., ketoconazole): may modestly raise mometasone levels.
  • Ritonavir: may increase exposure.
  • Live vaccines: reduced efficacy when used concurrently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nasonex is a prescription nasal spray containing mometasone furoate, indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis and for reducing the size of nasal polyps in adults and children as directed by a healthcare professional.

Mometasone furoate binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the nasal mucosa, altering gene transcription to suppress inflammatory cytokine production, reduce edema, and inhibit immune‑cell activation, which together diminish nasal inflammation.

The specific dose and frequency are determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s age, severity of symptoms, and indication. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and the product labeling.

Safety data for mometasone furoate in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should only be used if the potential benefit justifies any potential risk, and the decision should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional.

Nasonex (mometasone furoate) is a potent, once‑daily nasal corticosteroid with high receptor affinity, offering effective symptom control for allergic rhinitis and nasal polyps. Compared with older agents such as fluticasone or budesonide, it provides comparable efficacy with low systemic absorption, though individual response may vary.

Store Nasonex at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging to protect it from moisture and direct heat. Keep the spray bottle tightly closed when not in use and avoid freezing.

Nasonex is administered as a nasal spray. The patient should gently blow the nose, insert the tip into one nostril, close the opposite nostril, and spray the prescribed number of sprays while breathing in gently. The process is repeated in the other nostril if directed.

Although uncommon, serious adverse events can include nasal septal perforation, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, and vision changes. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience nosebleeds that do not stop, persistent eye problems, or signs of a severe allergic response.

Nasonex should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate or any component of the formulation. Caution is also advised for patients with active untreated fungal, bacterial, or viral infections of the nasal passages, and it is generally avoided in children under the approved age without medical guidance.
