About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Montypen Star LC Tablet is a combined anti-allergic and anti-asthmatic medication, containing 5mg of levocetirizine and 10mg of montelukast per tablet. This synergistic formulation offers a comprehensive treatment approach for patients experiencing allergic rhinitis, chronic idiopathic urticaria, and mild to moderate asthma. Levocetirizine, an antihistamine, helps alleviate symptoms such as itching, sneezing, runny nose, and redness of the eyes, while montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing bronchospasm and airway constriction. This combination therapy provides a more effective management of symptoms compared to monotherapy with either component alone. Montypen Star LC Tablet is indicated for adults and children aged 6 years and above, with a recommended dosage of one tablet twice daily. As with any medication, patients should consult their physician before initiating treatment, especially if they have a history of liver disease, kidney disease, or if they are taking other medications that may interact with this product.
