Levocetirizine + Montelukast is a combination of two medicines: Levocetirizine + Montelukast1 and Levocetirizine + Montelukast2, which relieves sneezing and runny nose due to allergies. Levocetirizine + Montelukast1 is an antiallergic which blocks a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible for runny nose, watery eyes and sneezing. Levocetirizine + Montelukast2 is a leukotriene antagonist. It works by blocking another chemical messenger (leukotriene). This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose, and improves symptoms.

It contains medicines that block certain chemicals in the body that trigger allergic reactions and help reduce symptoms such as sneezing, a runny nose, throat irritation, and cough. By targeting the underlying pathways of allergy and cough reflex, it supports symptom relief when used as directed by your doctor.

Q. Does Montu-L Tablet cause mood or behavior changes?

Q. Does Montu-L Tablet help with a blocked nose?

Montu-L Tablet is intended to relieve allergy-related symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and throat irritation, which can be associated with nasal discomfort.
