Momil (Mometasone Furoate)

Mometasone furoate, the active ingredient in Momil, is a corticosteroid presented as a nasal spray for nasal use. It reduces inflammation in the nasal passages and is indicated for the management of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis, as well as other nasal inflammatory conditions, and is marketed in the European Union.

Mometasone furoate nasal spray is used to treat inflammatory conditions of the nasal mucosa, primarily allergic rhinitis.

- Seasonal allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal congestion, itching, sneezing and rhinorrhea. - Perennial allergic rhinitis: provides sustained relief of chronic nasal inflammation. - Nasal polyps: helps shrink polyps and improve nasal airflow.

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

Common Side Effects: - Nasal irritation or burning sensation. - Epistaxis (nosebleeds). - Headache. - Throat irritation or dryness. - Cough. - Altered taste or taste disturbance.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Nasal septal perforation. - Cataracts or increased intra‑ocular pressure (glaucoma). - Suppression of the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑adrenal axis. - Opportunistic fungal infection of the nasal passages. - Severe allergic reactions such as angioedema. - Systemic corticosteroid effects with prolonged high‑dose use.

Before using Momil, consider the following safety measures.

- Prescription guidance: use exactly as directed by a healthcare professional. - Recent nasal surgery or trauma: avoid use until healed. - Active infections: defer use if there is a nasal or systemic infection. - Adrenal suppression: monitor patients on long‑term or high‑dose therapy. - Prolonged use: limit duration without medical review. - Device hygiene: keep the spray tip clean and replace if damaged. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Mometasone furoate nasal spray can interact with other medications.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Systemic corticosteroids: increase risk of systemic glucocorticoid effects. - Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole): may raise local drug exposure. - Live vaccines: potential reduction in vaccine efficacy due to immunosuppression.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., erythromycin): may modestly increase exposure. - Antifungal azoles (e.g., fluconazole): monitor for enhanced local effects.
