L MONTUS TABLET 15'S

How L MONTUS TABLET 15'S Works

• L MONTUS TABLET 15'S is a combination medication primarily used to relieve symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and asthma. It contains two active ingredients: Levocetirizine and Montelukast. Each component works through different mechanisms to alleviate allergy and respiratory issues.
• Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that selectively blocks the H1 receptor. Histamine is a natural chemical your body produces that can cause allergic symptoms such as itching, sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. By blocking the H1 receptor, levocetirizine prevents histamine from binding and triggering these allergic reactions, thus providing relief from allergy symptoms. It effectively reduces the intensity and frequency of allergic reactions.
• Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA). Leukotrienes are inflammatory chemicals released by the body in response to allergens or other triggers. These leukotrienes cause inflammation in the airways and increased mucus production, leading to symptoms like wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath, particularly in asthma. Montelukast works by blocking the action of leukotrienes, thereby reducing inflammation, relaxing airway muscles, and improving airflow in the lungs. This makes it easier to breathe and reduces asthma symptoms.
• The combination of Levocetirizine and Montelukast in L MONTUS TABLET 15'S provides a dual-action approach to managing allergies and respiratory conditions. Levocetirizine tackles immediate allergy symptoms by blocking histamine, while Montelukast addresses the underlying inflammation and airway constriction associated with asthma and allergic rhinitis. This synergistic effect helps to control both the acute and chronic aspects of these conditions, offering comprehensive relief. The tablet is typically taken once daily, as directed by a healthcare professional, to maintain consistent control over symptoms. Consistent usage ensures that both the antihistamine and anti-leukotriene effects are sustained, leading to better overall management of allergic and respiratory symptoms.
