Desmopressin and Mometasone inhaled have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.

Evidence level: Low

Why it happens

No well-established mechanism at inhaled doses; theoretical effect on water retention and sodium balance with systemic corticosteroid exposure.

What to do
