About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Minolast-LC Tablet is a combination product containing 5mg of levocetirizine, a histamine-1 receptor antagonist, and 10mg of montelukast, a cysteinyl leukotriene receptor antagonist. It is indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, including symptoms such as nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, and pruritus, as well as chronic spontaneous urticaria. The product is used to relieve nasal and ocular symptoms, itching, and other allergic reactions. Levocetirizine, the active ingredient, has a rapid onset of action and a prolonged duration of action, providing relief from symptoms for up to 24 hours. Montelukast, the other active ingredient, is a potent and selective inhibitor of cysteinyl leukotriene receptor-1, which plays a key role in the allergic response. The combination of these two ingredients provides a broad-spectrum approach to the management of allergic reactions. Minolast-LC Tablet is available in a film-coated tablet form and is intended for oral administration.
