Description
Monte-10 Tab contains montelukast (10 mg), a leukotriene receptor antagonist used to manage asthma and allergic rhinitis in adults and children over 15 years. It works by blocking leukotrienes, substances in the body that cause airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus production. This action helps prevent asthma attacks and alleviates allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itching, making it effective for seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis. Monte-10 is typically taken orally once daily, often at night, to control chronic asthma and provide all-day allergy relief. It’s not a rescue medication for acute asthma attacks, so patients should keep a fast-acting inhaler on hand for emergencies. Side effects are uncommon but may include headache, drowsiness, or, in rare cases, mood changes such as anxiety or depression. Patients with liver issues or a history of mental health concerns should use it cautiously. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use. Adhering to the prescribed dosage and monitoring for unusual symptoms ensures safe and effective treatment for respiratory conditions.
