About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Genericart Levocetirizine+Montelukast 5mg/10mg Tablet is a combination medication containing Levocetirizine 5mg and Montelukast 10mg, indicated for the management of allergic rhinitis and asthma. Levocetirizine is a potent, selective H1-antihistamine that alleviates symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, and itching by competitively inhibiting peripheral histamine H1-receptors. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor CysLT1, reducing airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus secretion. The combination provides a synergistic effect, improving symptom control in patients with seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis and asthma by targeting multiple pathways involved in allergic and inflammatory responses. This tablet is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and is suitable for adults and children above a specified age as per clinical guidelines. Common adverse effects may include headache, fatigue, dry mouth, and gastrointestinal disturbances, though the medication is generally well tolerated. Caution is advised in patients with hepatic or renal impairment, and it should be used under medical supervision to monitor efficacy and safety. Genericart Levocetirizine+Montelukast offers an effective therapeutic option for comprehensive allergy and asthma management.
