Press down on the applicator while breathing in gently through your nose. Repeat in the other nostril as directed. Do not spray into your eyes or mouth. Clean the applicator regularly. Always follow your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions regarding dosage and duration.

How it works

Mometasone is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages. It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers (such as histamine and prostaglandins) that cause allergic symptoms like swelling, redness, and irritation. By decreasing inflammation, it helps relieve nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and itching, making breathing easier.
