Nasic (Mometasone Furoate Monohydrate)

Mometasone furoate monohydrate, the active ingredient in Nasic, is a corticosteroid presented as a nasal spray for nasal use. It treats allergic rhinitis in adults and children. GNH USA supplies Nasic as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Nasic is a nasal corticosteroid that acts on inflammatory pathways of the nasal mucosa. Allergic rhinitis: reduces nasal congestion, itching and sneezing associated with seasonal or perennial allergies. Seasonal allergic rhinitis: provides symptom relief during pollen seasons. Perennial allergic rhinitis: controls year‑round nasal inflammation caused by indoor allergens.

Nasic may cause local and systemic adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects: - Nasal irritation or burning sensation. - Dryness of the nasal mucosa. - Epistaxis (nosebleeds). - Headache. - Altered taste or throat irritation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Nasal septum perforation. - Fungal infection of the nasal passages. - Severe or persistent nosebleeds. - Visual disturbances or cataract formation with prolonged use. - Adrenal suppression when used at high doses over extended periods.

Before using Nasic, consider the following precautions. - Use as prescribed: follow the healthcare professional’s instructions regarding frequency and duration. - Avoid prolonged continuous use without medical review to reduce risk of systemic effects. - Monitor for signs of local infection or fungal growth in the nasal cavity. - Caution in patients with glaucoma, cataracts, or uncontrolled diabetes. - Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established; use only if benefit outweighs risk. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Nasic may interact with other medications that affect corticosteroid activity or increase infection risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent systemic corticosteroids: may increase systemic glucocorticoid exposure. - Live vaccines: nasal steroids may diminish immune response.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): could raise local steroid levels. - Antifungal azoles: may potentiate local immunosuppression. - Nasal decongestants: combined use may increase nasal irritation.
