What is Metaspray Nasal Spray (Mometasone Furoate) used for? Metaspray Nasal Spray (Mometasone Furoate) is an inhalable corticosteroid prescribed to treat the symptoms of seasonal allergies or other perennial allergens. The medication operates by preventing swelling and irritation in the nose to reduce the creation of mucous while allowing easier and more comfortable respiration.

To use the medication gently shake the bottle to mix its contents, remove the cap, insert the applicator into your nostril, and inhale while operating the pump to distribute one spray. When more than one spray is prescribed it is suggested to alternate nostrils to prevent irritation.
