Pregnancy interaction:

Montelukast goes into breast milk in small doses and is normally thought to be safe.
Levocetirizine could get into milk and make babies sleepy or cranky.
So, breastfeeding ladies should be careful when using Montair LC.

How it works:
Montair LC Tablet has two chemicals that work together to relieve allergies in two ways:
Montelukast stops leukotrienes, which are molecules that cause inflammation and narrowing of the airways. This helps keep asthma and nasal congestion from happening.
Levocetirizine prevents allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and a runny nose by blocking histamine receptors.
Together, they provide you full control over your skin and respiratory allergy symptoms.
