Frequently asked questions

What is Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma used for?+
Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma is a nasal spray containing mometasone furoate, a corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory nasal conditions such as allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps, and non‑allergic rhinitis. It helps relieve symptoms like congestion, sneezing, itching, and runny nose by reducing local inflammation.
How does mometasone furoate work?+
Mometasone furoate works by binding to glucocorticoid receptors inside nasal mucosal cells. This complex alters gene transcription, suppressing the release of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and prostaglandins, which reduces swelling, mucus production, and immune cell activity in the nasal passages.
What is the usual dose of Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma?+
The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s age, condition severity, and response to therapy. Typical regimens involve one or two sprays per nostril once daily, but exact instructions should always follow the prescriber’s order.
Is Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for mometasone furoate in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It 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.

How does Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma compare with other nasal corticosteroids?+
Mometasone furoate is a high‑potency intranasal corticosteroid with a low systemic bioavailability, offering effective symptom control at once‑daily dosing.

Store the nasal spray at room temperature, preferably below 25 °C (77 °F). Keep it in the original packaging to protect from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not freeze the product, and ensure the cap is tightly closed when not in use.
How is Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma administered?+
The spray is intended for intranasal use. Gently blow the nose, tilt the head slightly forward, insert the nozzle into one nostril, and press the pump while breathing in gently through the nose. Repeat in the other nostril if prescribed, and avoid blowing the nose immediately after dosing.
What are the most serious risks associated with this nasal spray?+
Serious risks, though rare, include nasal fungal infections, adrenal suppression with prolonged high‑dose use, severe or persistent nosebleeds, vision changes such as cataracts or glaucoma, and systemic allergic reactions including anaphylaxis. Patients should seek medical attention if any of these occur.
Who should not use Mometasona Furoato Kern Pharma?+
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 passages, and in children under the age recommended by the prescriber.
