Mometasone nasal spray is prescribed for use once or twice daily, with the dosage depending on your medical condition and response to therapy. It may take 1 to 2 weeks before you feel the full benefit of mometasone. It works best when used regularly on a scheduled basis as directed by your doctor.
Nasonex nasal spray (mometasone furoate) may take time for the nasal spray to take effect, so keep using it until your doctor advises you to stop. Abruptly discontinuing use can worsen your symptoms, so do not stop using it without consulting your doctor. To avoid missing doses, make a dosing schedule.
