Mechanism of Action

Mometasone depresses the formation, release and activity of endogenous inflammatory chemical mediators (e.g. kinins, histamine, liposomal enzymes and prostaglandin). It inhibits the margination and subsequent cell migration to the injury site, reverses vascular dilatation and permeability, resulting in decreased access of cells to the area of injury. Absorption: Ointment: 0.7%; increased with occlusive dressings. Nasal spray: Undetectable in plasma. Oral inhalation: <1%. Distribution: Protein-binding: 98-99%. Metabolism: Hepatic. Excretion: Via faeces, bile, urine.
