Montijem LC Syrup contains Levocetirizine 2.5 mg + Montelukast 4 mg. It comes in a pack of 60ml.

In this combination, Levocetirizine blocks histamine at H1 receptors and so brings down sneezing, a runny nose, itching and watery eyes. Montelukast, on its part, blocks cysteinyl leukotrienes, the chemicals that swell and tighten the airways and nasal passages. Each ingredient therefore works on a separate step of the allergic response.

Must not be used if the patient is allergic to levocetirizine, cetirizine, montelukast or any ingredient of the syrup. Must not be used in patients with end-stage kidney disease (creatinine clearance below 10 mL/min) or those on haemodialysis. Must not be used in children 6 months to 11 years of age who have impaired kidney function. Must not be used to treat a sudden or acute asthma attack; a rescue medicine should be kept available. Patients with known aspirin sensitivity must continue to avoid aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines while taking montelukast.
