Dosing and Administration
Apply a few drops of Mometasone Furoate Lotion 0.1% (Mometasone furoate topical solution USP) to the affected skin areas once daily and massage lightly until it disappears. For the most effective and economical use, hold the nozzle of the bottle very close to the affected areas and gently squeeze. Since safety and efficacy of Mometasone Furoate Lotion 0.1% have not been established in pediatric patients below 12 years of age, its use in this age group is not recommended.
As with other corticosteroids, therapy should be discontinued when control is achieved. If no improvement is seen within 2 weeks, reassessment of diagnosis may be necessary.
