Montovent-LC Tablet is used for the following conditions:

• Management of perennial and seasonal allergic rhinitis: This is a condition where your child may experience sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes due to an allergy.

• Control of symptoms associated with urticaria: Urticaria, also known as hives, causes red, itchy bumps on your child’s skin.

• Relief from symptoms of asthma: Asthma may cause your child to have difficulty breathing, coughing, and chest tightness.

• Prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm: This is a condition where your child’s airways narrow during or after exercise.

Here's how you should give Montovent-LC Tablet to your child:

• Give the tablet whole with some water.

• Do not crush or chew the tablet before giving it to your child.

• Follow the doctor's recommended dose strictly.

• If any questions arise about this medicine's use, consult your child's doctor for clarification.

Montovent-LC Tablet is given orally.

There are two active ingredients in each Montovent-LC tablet:

• Montelukast (10 mg): Classified as a leukotriene receptor antagonist, montelukast blocks chemicals called leukotrienes in your child's body. Leukotrienes cause narrowing and swelling of airways in the lungs. By blocking these chemicals, montelukast helps ease breathing difficulties and control asthma symptoms.

• Levocetirizine (5 mg): As a second-generation antihistamine, levocetirizine works by blocking histamine receptors in the body. Histamine is a substance that triggers allergic reactions, so this action helps reduce allergy symptoms like itching and a runny nose.

• Keep Montovent-LC Tablet in its original packaging to protect it from light and moisture.

• Store this medicine in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

• Ensure that Montovent-LC Tablet is kept out of reach and sight of children.

• Always use this medicine before the expiry date mentioned on the package.

• Since Montovent-LC Tablet is used to manage allergies, ensure your child's diet doesn't include allergenic foods like peanuts, shellfish, or eggs. Consult your doctor for a detailed list suitable for your child.

• Encourage your child to spend time indoors during peak pollen seasons, as this medicine helps manage hay fever and other similar allergies. This will reduce exposure to allergens and help manage symptoms.
