Physical description & handling notes

• Insoluble
• Mometasone is a synthetic corticosteroid with an affinity for glucocorticoid receptors 22 times higher than that of [dexamethasone]. Mometasone furoate also has a lower affinity to mineralocorticoid receptors than natural corticosteroids, making it more selective in its action. Mometasone furoate diffuses across cell membranes to activate pathways responsible for reducing inflammation.

Documented Uses

• Animal Drugs -> FDA Approved Animal Drug Products (Green Book) -> Active Ingredients
• Inhaled mometasone furoate is indicated for prophylaxis of asthma in patients ≥4 years. Applied topically as an ointment, mometasone furoate is indicated for symptomatic treatment of dermatitis and pruritis in patients ≥2 years. Mometasone furoate nasal spray is available both over-the-counter (OTC) and by prescription. The OTC nasal spray formulation of mometasone furoate is indicated for the treatment of upper respiratory allergic symptoms (e.g. rhinorrhea, sneezing) in patients ≥2 years of age. The prescription
• Substances that reduce or suppress INFLAMMATION.
• Drugs used to treat or prevent skin disorders or for the routine care of skin.
• Agents that are used to treat allergic reactions. Most of these drugs act by preventing the release of inflammatory mediators or inhibiting the actions of released mediators on their target cells. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p475)
• Corticosteroid [EPC]; Corticosteroid Hormone Receptor Agonists [MoA]
