About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Montakast-L Tablet is a combination medication containing Levocetirizine 5mg and Montelukast 10mg, indicated for the relief of symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis and asthma. Levocetirizine, an antihistamine, exhibits potent H1-receptor antagonist properties, effectively alleviating symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, blocks the action of leukotriene D4, a potent bronchoconstrictor, thereby reducing inflammation and bronchospasm. This dual-acting combination provides rapid and sustained relief from nasal congestion, itching, and sneezing, as well as bronchospasm, cough, and wheezing. Montakast-L Tablet has a rapid onset of action, with effects lasting up to 24 hours. It is well-tolerated and has a favorable safety profile, making it an effective and convenient treatment option for patients suffering from seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis, and mild to moderate asthma.
