Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Glucocorticoid receptor agonist; inhibits inflammatory mediators including cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules; reduces nasal inflammation.
Corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation by inhibiting phospholipase A2, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis, and modulating cytokine production.
2 sprays (50 mcg/spray) per nostril once daily; total dose 200 mcg/day.
1 to 4 mg (0.025 to 0.1 mL of 40 mg/mL suspension) intravitreal injection once.

The terminal elimination half-life of mometasone furoate is approximately 5.8 hours. This short half-life supports once-daily dosing for intranasal use, but systemic accumulation is minimal with topical administration.
Approximately 3.3 hours for triamcinolone acetonide; with intravitreal administration, detectable levels persist for weeks to months.
Mometasone furoate is predominantly eliminated via biliary/fecal excretion. After intravenous administration, approximately 74% of the dose is recovered in feces and about 8% in urine. The drug undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism, and metabolites are excreted primarily in bile.
Primarily hepatic metabolism; renal excretion of metabolites (<5% unchanged). Biliary/fecal elimination accounts for minimal clearance.
