About the Medicine

Montewok-LC Tablet is an effective medicine used to relieve and prevent allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, and itchy or watery eyes. It is commonly prescribed for allergic rhinitis (both seasonal and perennial), asthma-associated rhinitis, and chronic urticaria (hives).

Allergies occur when the body’s immune system overreacts to harmless substances like pollen, dust, or animal dander, releasing chemicals that trigger symptoms such as inflammation, itching, and swelling. Montewok-LC Tablet helps control these allergic responses, providing lasting relief and improving breathing comfort.

Composition and Mechanism of Action

Montewok-LC Tablet combines two active ingredients — Montelukast and Levocetirizine, which work together to relieve allergy symptoms effectively.

�� Montelukast

Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks the action of leukotrienes — natural substances in the body responsible for airway inflammation, swelling, and nasal blockage. By reducing these effects, it helps control asthma-related symptoms and improves airflow.

�� Levocetirizine

Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that blocks the release of histamine, a chemical that causes allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes. It offers quick relief from allergic discomfort without causing excessive drowsiness.

Together, these two ingredients provide a dual-action formula that manages both inflammation and histamine-triggered symptoms, making Montewok-LC Tablet ideal for allergy and asthma management.

Uses and Benefits of Montewok-LC Tablet

1. Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever)

Effectively reduces symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, and runny nose caused by dust, pollen, or pet dander.

2. Asthma-Associated Allergies

Helps control inflammation in the airways, reducing asthma-related breathing problems and allergic triggers.

3. Seasonal and Environmental Allergies

Provides relief from seasonal allergies that worsen during certain times of the year and exposure to outdoor allergens.

4. Urticaria (Hives)

Treats chronic urticaria, a skin condition that causes itching, swelling, and red welts due to allergic reactions.

How Montewok-LC Tablet Works

Montewok-LC Tablet works through the combined effect of its two key ingredients:

● Montelukast blocks leukotrienes, preventing airway inflammation, swelling, and narrowing that can cause breathing difficulty.

● Levocetirizine prevents histamine release, providing quick relief from allergic symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes.

This two-way action not only controls existing allergic reactions but also helps prevent future allergy flare-ups.

Possible Side Effects

While Montewok-LC Tablet is generally safe and well tolerated, a few people may experience mild side effects such as:

● Abdominal pain or nausea

● Headache or fatigue

● Drowsiness or sleepiness

● Dry mouth

Most of these side effects are temporary and disappear with continued use. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor immediately.
