Nasonex Information :

Uses :

Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension is a member of the “corticosteroid” medication class, which is used to treat COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and asthma symptoms. Breathing becomes difficult due to the narrowing, swelling, and production of excess mucus in the airways caused by asthma, a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition. COPD is a collection of lung conditions that includes chronic bronchitis, or inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes, and emphysema, or shortness of breath.

Mometasone is a strong corticosteroid found in Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension. These substances are normally released by the skin in response to allergens. Breathing becomes easier when using Nasonex Nasal Spray Suspension because it reduces irritation and inflammation in the airways. As a result, it relieves the symptoms of COPD and asthma.
