Mometasone is a dermatology and allergy medication, typically used as a topical corticosteroid. It is pronounced with emphasis on the second syllable, and its nasal/inhaled variants share the same root. In practice, the term is used in clinical notes, product labels, and prescribing information. The word combines a root indicating steroid class with a Latinized suffix, and is commonly encountered in medical contexts rather than everyday speech.
