Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Montewok-LC tablet contains a combination of montelukast and levocetirizine. Montelukast blocks the action of certain natural substances called leukotrienes, which are responsible for allergies. It reduces swelling, relaxes airways and makes breathing easier. Levocetirizine blocks histamine and other allergy-causing substances to provide relief from allergic symptoms.

Interactions

  • Some medicines may affect the way the Montewok-LC tablet works, or the tablet itself can reduce the effectiveness of other medicines.
  • Inform your doctor about all medicines, supplements, or herbal preparations you are taking to avoid any possible interactions.
  • Particular care should be taken when taking medicines for treating fits/seizures (phenobarbital), tuberculosis (rifampin), asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (theophylline), and HIV/AIDS (ritonavir).

Interactions with food items

  • Montewok-LC can be taken with or without food.
  • Taking it after meals may help reduce the chances of stomach irritation.
  • Avoid alcohol, as it can increase dizziness and drowsiness caused by levocetirizine.
  • Limit very fatty or heavy meals, as they may slow the absorption of the medicine.
  • Stay hydrated and include fresh fruits, vegetables, and light meals to support allergy relief.
