Description:
Montelukast 10mg Tablet is a leukotriene receptor antagonist used for the prevention and long-term treatment of asthma, as well as for the relief of symptoms of allergic rhinitis such as sneezing, nasal congestion, and runny nose. It works by blocking the action of leukotrienes—chemicals in the body that cause airway inflammation, tightening of airway muscles, and increased mucus production.
Therapeutic Uses:
Prevention and chronic treatment of asthma
Relief of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis
Prevention of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction
Mechanism of Action:
Montelukast selectively blocks leukotriene D4 at the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor in the lungs and bronchial tubes, reducing inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and allergy symptoms.
Dosage Form:
Tablet
Strength:
10 mg
Prescription Status:
Prescription-only medication
Note:
Montelukast 10mg is a preventive therapy, not intended for the relief of acute asthma attacks. It should be taken regularly as prescribed, even when symptoms are not present. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding dosage and duration.
