Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a compounded nasal spray formulation of Ketotifen 0.05%/Mometasone Furoate 0.05%. This unique combination of medications is specifically designed to address a range of allergic and inflammatory conditions affecting the nose and sinuses. It has proven particularly effective in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, and nasal polyps.

Ketotifen, an antihistamine, functions by inhibiting the action of histamine, a substance released by the body during an allergic reaction. On the other hand, Mometasone Furoate, a corticosteroid, works by reducing inflammation and swelling in the nasal passages. The combined action of these two medications provides effective relief from the symptoms associated with allergic and inflammatory conditions of the nose and sinuses.

This compounded nasal spray formulation is delivered in a liquid form, specifically designed for administration into the nasal cavity. It provides targeted local or systemic effects through the nostrils, ensuring that the medication reaches the affected areas directly. This method of delivery not only enhances the effectiveness of the treatment but also minimizes potential side effects.

It is important to note that this nasal spray formulation is generally safe and well-tolerated. However, as with any medication, it should be used as directed by a healthcare provider. Any potential side effects are typically minimal and manageable.

If you have any questions or require further information about this compounded nasal spray formulation of Ketotifen 0.05%/Mometasone Furoate 0.05%, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

Drug Interactions

Ketotifen 0.05%/Mometasone Furoate 0.05% Nasal Spray is a compounded formulation designed for the treatment of both seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis. This unique combination of an antihistamine (Ketotifen) and a corticosteroid (Mometasone Furoate) works synergistically to alleviate symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and nasal congestion. The antihistamine component functions by inhibiting the action of histamine, a substance released by the body during an allergic reaction, while the corticosteroid component reduces inflammation within the nasal passages. This dual-action approach makes this formulation an effective long-term treatment option for allergic rhinitis.

However, it is crucial to note that this formulation is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to either Ketotifen or Mometasone Furoate. It should also not be used in patients with active or recent nasal ulcers, or in those with a history of glaucoma or cataracts. Patients are advised to avoid contact with the eyes while using this nasal spray.

Patients should use this formulation as directed by their healthcare provider. The typical dosage is two sprays in each nostril once daily. It is essential to shake the bottle well before each use and to avoid spraying the medication directly into the eyes. After each use, patients are advised to rinse their nose with warm water to ensure optimal absorption and effectiveness of the medication.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the use of Ketotifen 0.05%/Mometasone Furoate 0.05% Nasal Spray, please do not hesitate to reach out for further information.
