Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
Montek LC (montelukast 10 mg, levocetirizine dihydrochloride 5 mg)
Montelukast -Leukotriene receptor antagonist-used to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies.
Levocetirizine -Antihistamine-used in allergic rhinitis and urticaria.
Both the drugs are given in combination for symptomatic relief of symptoms (nasal and nonnasal) associated with seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis.
