Montas-L tablet is a medication used to treat the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as a runny and congested nose, respiratory blockages, sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and other allergic reactions. It is a combination medicine that contains montelukast and levocetirizine. It works by preventing the release of chemical substances, such as histamines and leukotrienes, which are responsible for causing allergic symptoms.

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any concerns about these side effects.
