About Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension

Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension belongs to the class of medicines called ‘corticosteroids’ used to relieve symptoms of asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension contains Mometasone, a potent corticosteroid. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such substances are released normally. Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension decreases inflammation and irritation in the airways and makes breathing easier. Thus, it provides relief from the symptoms of asthma and COPD. 

Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension should be used as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to use Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension for a period recommended by your doctor based on your condition. Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension may cause side effects, including upset stomach, sore throat, oral thrush, hoarse voice, headache, nausea, and tiredness/weakness. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
