About this product

Overview

Montika 4mg Sachet contains Montelukast as its active ingredient. Montelukast belongs to a class of medications known as leukotriene receptor antagonists. It works by blocking the action of leukotrienes, which are chemicals in the body that contribute to inflammation, bronchoconstriction (tightening of muscles around the airways), and mucus production in conditions such as asthma and allergic rhinitis.

Uses

  1. Asthma: Montika 4mg Sachet is used for the maintenance treatment of asthma in adults and children aged 12 months and older. It helps to prevent asthma symptoms and improve lung function.
  2. Allergic Rhinitis: It is also indicated for the relief of symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and itching of the nose and throat, in patients aged 6 months and older.
  3. Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction: Montika 4mg Sachet may be used to prevent exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) in individuals aged 6 years and older.

  1. Headache: Headache is one of the most common side effects reported with Montika 4mg Sachet.
  2. Gastrointestinal Upset: Some individuals may experience stomach pain, diarrhea, or nausea.
  3. Fatigue: Feeling tired or fatigued may occur in some patients.

Precautions

  1. Asthma Control: Montika 4mg Sachet should not be used to treat acute asthma attacks. It is intended for long-term control of asthma symptoms and should be taken regularly even when symptoms are well-controlled.
  2. Neuropsychiatric Events: Monitor for neuropsychiatric events, especially in pediatric patients. Discontinue use if such events occur.
  3. Churg-Strauss Syndrome: Rare cases of systemic eosinophilia, vasculitis, and worsening pulmonary symptoms have been reported with Montelukast. Patients should be monitored for these conditions.
  4. Liver Function: Periodic monitoring of liver function may be recommended, especially in patients with pre-existing liver disease.
  5. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The safety of Montika 4mg Sachet during pregnancy and lactation has not been established. Consult a healthcare professional before using it during these periods.
