Mometasone 50 mcg Uses

This nasal spray is primarily used for:

  • Seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis in adults and children.
  • Management of nasal polyps. Mometasone nasal spray helps to alleviate nasal symptoms without the systemic side effects associated with oral steroids.

How Does Mometasone 50 mcg Work

Mometasone works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages. It inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators and modifies the body’s immune response to allergens. This leads to decreased inflammation, reducing the symptoms of nasal congestion, itching, and runny nose.

How to Use Mometasone 50 mcg Nasal Spray

  • Shake the bottle gently before each use.
  • Blow your nose gently to clear the nostrils.
  • Close one nostril and insert the spray tip into the other.
  • Breathe in slowly through your nose and press the applicator to release the spray.
  • Repeat in the other nostril if prescribed.
  • Avoid blowing your nose immediately after application to allow the medication to remain in the nasal passages.

Use the nasal spray as directed by your healthcare provider, typically once daily.
