How does Nasonex Work?

Allergies occur when a person’s immune system has a reaction to something in the environment. These particles are called allergens, many of which are airborne, and can be breathed in and cause an allergic reaction.

Nasonex contains mometasone furoate, which is a type of corticosteroid. This kind of medicine reduces inflammation, therefore relieving symptoms of an allergic reaction. Nasonex is a once daily spray. It works in the nose to reduce inflammation and help ease allergic reactions.

Nasonex can also help prevent seasonal symptoms of hayfever if it is used before exposure. Used in this way, it is a great tool in helping control allergy symptoms from the start.

History of Nasonex

Nasonex (Mometasone Furoate) was FDA approved on October 1, 1997 and is manufactured by Schering.

What Does Nasonex Cost?

One nasal spray (17g) of Nasonex (mometasone) 50mcg costs between $50 and $100.

Taking Nasonex

If you have ever had an allergic reaction to mometasone, you should not take Nasonex. When being prescribed Nasonex, make sure to tell your doctor if you have an active infection, eye problems like glaucoma or cataracts or herpes in the eyes, tuberculosis, nose sores, recent nasal surgery or injury.

Nasonex is not approved for the use of people under 2. It can affect growth in children, so if you observe a lack of growth in your child that is taking Nasonex, tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, talk to your doctor about using this medicine.
