Mometasone furoate nasal spray is a glucocorticoid used to manage inflammatory conditions of the nasal mucosa.

Allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal congestion, itching and sneezing. Seasonal allergic rhinitis: controls symptoms triggered by seasonal allergens. Perennial allergic rhinitis: provides year‑round relief of chronic nasal inflammation. Nasal polyps: decreases polyp size and improves nasal airflow.

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

Common Side Effects: - Nasal irritation or burning: mild discomfort at the site of application. - Headache: transient headache following use. - Epistaxis: occasional nosebleeds.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Nasal septal perforation: rare tissue damage requiring medical evaluation. - Adrenal suppression: systemic glucocorticoid effect affecting hormone balance. - Severe allergic reaction: anaphylaxis or angioedema.

Before prescribing Mometasone furoate nasal spray, clinicians should consider several precautionary measures to ensure safe use. - Assess infection: avoid use in patients with active nasal or systemic infections without medical supervision. - Monitor intraocular pressure: patients with glaucoma should be evaluated regularly. - Limit duration: use the lowest effective dose for the shortest period necessary. - Evaluate for hypersensitivity: discontinue if signs of allergic reaction appear. - Use in pregnancy: weigh potential benefits against risks; consult obstetric guidance. - Store at room temperature: keep below 25°C in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Mometasone furoate nasal spray can interact with other medications, primarily affecting systemic corticosteroid exposure or local nasal conditions.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Systemic corticosteroids: concurrent use may increase risk of adrenal suppression. - CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): may raise local drug levels, enhancing side effects.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Antifungal nasal sprays: may alter mucosal absorption. - Antihistamines: additive effect on nasal dryness. - Vaccines (live attenuated): consider timing due to immunosuppression potential.
