Common uses
Classification(s)
Pharmacology
Routes
Intranasal, inhaled, topical, intranasal sinus implant
Onset
Intranasal: symptom relief 12-24 hours; inhaled: bronchial effect 1-2 weeks
Duration
24 hours
Half-life
~5 hours (plasma)[1]
Bioavailability
Intranasal: <1% systemic; inhaled lung deposition with extensive first-pass clearance[1]
Pregnancy
Intranasal long considered acceptable; widely used in obstetric rhinitis.[citation needed]
Legal status
OTC (Nasonex 24HR) and Rx-only (other forms) in US
Purported mechanism
Mometasone furoate is a high-affinity glucocorticoid receptor agonist with extensive hepatic first-pass clearance (CYP3A4) that minimizes systemic glucocorticoid exposure from inhaled, intranasal, or topical administration.0 Like other locally-acting corticosteroids, broadly suppresses inflammatory gene transcription; clinical onset is gradual for asthma controller use but rapid for allergic rhinitis. Once-daily intranasal dosing reflects strong receptor binding and slow tissue clearance[1].
