Hyderabad: Aurobindo Pharma Limited has announced that the Company has received final approval from the US Food & Drug Administration (USFDA) to manufacture and market Mometasone Furoate Monohydrate Nasal Spray, 50 mcg/spray.

The product is bioequivalent and therapeutically equivalent to the reference listed drug (RLD), Nasonex Nasal Spray, 50 mcg/spray of Organon LLC.

Mometasone Furoate Monohydrate Nasal Spray, 50 mcg/spray, is indicated for the treatment of the nasal symptoms of seasonal allergic and perennial allergic rhinitis, in adults and paediatric patients 2 years of age and older.

Seasonal allergic rhinitis, known as hay fever, arises from allergens like pollen, causing sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes during specific seasons. Perennial allergic rhinitis, persistent year-round, is triggered by indoor allergens such as dust mites and pet dander, leading to similar symptoms. Proper management involves medication, allergen avoidance, and sometimes immunotherapy.
