About MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S

  • Montek LC Tablet 15's is a prescription combination medicine marketed in India by Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. Each tablet contains levocetirizine 5 mg and montelukast 10 mg.
  • Levocetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine that blocks histamine, the chemical the body releases during an allergic reaction, and is less likely to cause drowsiness than older antihistamines. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks leukotrienes, chemicals that drive airway inflammation and narrowing. Together, the combination is used for allergic rhinitis, chronic hives (urticaria), and as part of asthma management.

Uses of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S

  • Allergic rhinitis, including sneezing, runny nose, itching and watery eyes
  • Chronic urticaria (hives)
  • Preventive, ongoing management of asthma, alongside other prescribed asthma treatment

How MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S Works

  • Montelukast blocks the receptors that leukotrienes act on. Leukotrienes are released during an allergic or asthmatic response and cause airway inflammation, narrowing and mucus production. Blocking their action reduces this inflammation and helps keep the airway open.
  • Levocetirizine blocks histamine H1 receptors. Histamine is released during an allergic reaction and causes sneezing, a runny nose, itching and watery eyes, so blocking its action settles these symptoms.

Side Effects of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

Headache, dry mouth, tiredness and drowsiness are commonly reported, along with abdominal pain, thirst and stomach upset. Drowsiness is less common than with older antihistamines but can still occur in some patients. Montelukast has been associated with neuropsychiatric effects, including agitation, anxiety, abnormal dreams, sleep disturbance, depression and, rarely, suicidal thoughts or behaviour, and carries a boxed warning for this in some countries. Any new or worsening mood or behaviour change should be reported to the prescriber promptly. A widespread rash, facial swelling or breathing difficulty are signs of an allergic reaction and need immediate medical attention.

  • Headache
  • Drowsiness
  • Fatigue
  • Dry mouth
  • Nausea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Thirst
  • Dizziness

Safety Advice for MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

pregnancy

Pregnancy

Use only if clearly needed and prescribed

Data from human pregnancy exposure to montelukast are limited but have not consistently shown a clear increase in major congenital malformations. However, as with all medicines in pregnancy, Montek or Montek LC should be used only if the potential benefit justifies any potential risk to the fetus.

breast_feeding

BreastFeeding

Use with medical supervision during lactation

Limited information suggests that montelukast is excreted into breast milk in very small amounts. Clinically significant effects on breastfed infants are considered unlikely, but comprehensive data are lacking.

driving

Driving

May cause drowsiness or dizziness in some patients

Montelukast alone is not commonly associated with significant drowsiness, and many patients can drive or operate machinery without impairment. However, individual responses vary, and some people may experience headache, dizziness, or fatigue.

alcohol

Alcohol

Avoid or limit alcohol consumption

Alcohol can enhance central nervous system side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired concentration, especially when Montek is combined with an antihistamine in products like Montek LC.

allergies

Allergies

Contraindicated in known hypersensitivity

Do not take Montek or Montek LC if you have a known allergy or hypersensitivity to montelukast, any antihistamine component (such as levocetirizine), or any of the excipients in the formulation.

default alt

Mental Health and Behavior

Monitor for mood or behavior changes

Montelukast has been associated in some patients with neuropsychiatric events, including agitation, aggression, anxiety, abnormal dreams, insomnia, depression, and, rarely, suicidal thoughts or behavior.

Dosage of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

  • The amount and duration of treatment depend on the condition being treated and the individual's age, and must be decided by the prescriber. The amount written on the current prescription should be followed, and treatment should not be stopped early even if symptoms improve, without checking with the prescriber first.
  • This medicine is generally used as ongoing, preventive treatment rather than for immediate relief, and it is not a rescue medicine for a sudden asthma attack.

What if I miss my dose of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S?Arrow

  • If you miss a dose of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.

How to store MONTEK LC TABLET 15'S?Arrow

  • Store the tablets in their original pack, out of the reach of children and pets. Keep them at the temperature stated on the current Sun Pharma pack. Do not use the tablets after the expiry date printed on the pack.

Benefits of MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

  • Combining an antihistamine with a leukotriene receptor antagonist addresses both the immediate histamine-driven symptoms of an allergy and the ongoing airway inflammation that leukotrienes drive, which is useful for allergic rhinitis alongside asthma or chronic hives.
  • Levocetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine, so it is generally less sedating than older antihistamines, which can matter for daytime use.

How to use MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

  • Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet.
  • It can be taken with or without food, and taking it at a similar time each day, often in the evening, helps keep a steady level of the medicine in the body.

Quick Tips for MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

  • Take the tablet at a similar time each day, as directed by the prescriber
  • This medicine is a preventive treatment, not a rescue medicine for a sudden asthma attack
  • Continue any separate reliever inhaler or preventer medicine exactly as prescribed
  • Watch for mood or behaviour changes, especially in children, and report them to the prescriber promptly
  • Avoid driving or operating machinery until the effect of the medicine is known
  • Do not stop this medicine suddenly without checking with the prescriber, even if symptoms improve

Food Interactions with MONTEK LC TABLET 15'SArrow

  • Montek LC can be taken with or without food.
  • Alcohol adds to the drowsiness that levocetirizine can cause and is best limited while taking this medicine.
