Summary

This trial tests different doses of mometasone in nasal irrigation for patients with chronic sinusitis. The goal is to see if it affects cortisol levels in the body. Mometasone helps reduce nasal inflammation and is less likely to enter the bloodstream, making it safer for long-term use. Mometasone furoate has been used in various forms, such as nasal sprays and gels, to treat sinusitis and reduce nasal inflammation.
