MONTELUKE F 

Montelukast (10mg), Fexofenadine (120mg)

Monteluke F is a combination medication that integrates two active ingredients: Montelukast (10mg) and Fexofenadine (120mg). This combination is commonly used to treat symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis and asthma. By leveraging the synergistic effects of both drugs, Monteluke F offers a comprehensive approach to managing allergies and asthma, providing relief from various symptoms and improving the quality of life for patients.

Uses and Benefits

Allergic Rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory condition of the nasal passages caused by allergens such as pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Symptoms include sneezing, itching, nasal congestion, and runny nose. Monteluke F effectively alleviates these symptoms, allowing individuals to go about their daily activities without disruption.

Asthma Management

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by airway inflammation and constriction, leading to breathing difficulties. Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, reduces airway inflammation and prevents bronchospasm. This helps in managing asthma symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing, especially in patients with exercise-induced asthma.

Mechanism of Action

Montelukast (10mg)

Montelukast works by blocking leukotrienes, which are chemicals released by the body during an allergic reaction. Leukotrienes cause inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus production in the airways. By inhibiting these chemicals, Montelukast reduces inflammation and relaxes the airways, making it easier to breathe.

Fexofenadine (120mg)

Fexofenadine is an antihistamine that works by blocking histamine, another chemical released during allergic reactions. Histamine binds to its receptors, causing symptoms such as itching, sneezing, and nasal congestion. By blocking these receptors, Fexofenadine prevents the action of histamine, providing relief from allergic symptoms.

Dosage and Administration

Recommended Dosage

The recommended dosage of Monteluke F is one tablet daily, taken with or without food. It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and not exceed the recommended amount.
