Overview

Mometasone furoate (also referred to as Mometasone) is a moderately potent glucocorticoid steroid used in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders (such as eczema and psoriasis), allergic rhinitis (such as hay fever), and asthma for patients unresponsive to less potent corticosteroids. In terms of steroid strength, it is more potent than hydrocortisone, and less potent than dexamethasone.

Schering-Plough markets the medication under the following brand names; Elocon (Elocom) as a cream or ointment for skin conditions, Nasonex as a nasal spray for upper respiratory conditions, Asmanex Twisthaler as a dry powder inhaler (DPI) for lower respiratory conditions.
