About this product

Overview

Montit 5mg Chewable Tablet contains Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) used to manage and prevent symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montelukast works by blocking leukotrienes, substances in the body that cause inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus production. By inhibiting these actions, Montit helps improve breathing, reduce inflammation, and alleviate symptoms of allergies.

Uses

Montit 5mg Chewable Tablet is commonly prescribed for:

  1. Asthma: Used as a maintenance treatment to prevent asthma symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. It is particularly effective for preventing exercise-induced bronchospasm.
  2. Allergic Rhinitis: Helps manage symptoms of seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis, including sneezing, runny or itchy nose, and nasal congestion.
  3. Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction: Prevents breathing difficulties during exercise by reducing bronchospasm.

  3. Drug Interactions: Montelukast can interact with other medications, such as phenobarbital and rifampin, which may reduce its effectiveness. Inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you are taking.
