Montelukast is indicated for-
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation, swelling, and narrowing of the airways. It often leads to symptoms such as wheezing, difficulty breathing, chest pain, and coughing. Monas helps in managing and preventing asthma symptoms by reducing airway inflammation and excessive mucus production.
Seasonal allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever, occurs when individuals are exposed to allergens like pollen, dust, or animal dander. It may occur due to dust, pollution, or eating food you are allergic to. Monas 4mg Tablet is used to treat the symptoms of allergies such as runny nose, watery eyes, sneezing, and itching (especially eyes, nose, mouth, throat, etc.). It results in inflammation of the nasal lining, leading to symptoms such as nasal congestion, repeated sneezing, and itchy or watery eyes. Monas 4mg Tablet can be effective in treating and preventing these symptoms.
Bronchospasm is a contraction of the airways making it difficult to breathe. Monas 4mg Tablet is used to prevent bronchospasm (breathing difficulty) caused during exercise.
Avoid intake of alcohol while taking Monas 4mg Tablet as this may make you more drowsy.

Monas 4mg Tablet containing montelukast works by opposing the actions of Leukotrienes. Leukotrienes cause narrowing and swelling of airways in the lungs and also cause allergy symptoms. By blocking leukotrienes, Montelukast improves asthma symptoms, helps control asthma, and improves seasonal allergy symptoms.
Monas contains Montelukast, which is classified as a Leukotriene Receptor Antagonist. It is prescribed to adults and adolescents (aged 15 years or older) for the treatment and prevention of symptoms associated with chronic asthma and seasonal allergic rhinitis. It can also be used to prevent exercise-induced bronchospasm.
Montelukast is a medication that works by inhibiting the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor, specifically the CysLT1 receptor. It is a selective and orally active leukotriene receptor antagonist. Leukotrienes are inflammatory mediators produced from the metabolism of arachidonic acid. Among the leukotrienes, cysteinyl leukotrienes (LTC4, LTD4, LTE4) play a significant role in the pathophysiology of asthma and allergic rhinitis. These cysteinyl leukotrienes are secreted by various cells, including mast cells and eosinophils. The binding of cysteinyl leukotrienes to their receptors, particularly the CysLT1 receptor, triggers a cascade of events that contribute to the signs and symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis. These events include airway edema (swelling), smooth muscle contraction, and altered cellular activity associated with the inflammatory process. By blocking the CysLT1 receptor, montelukast helps to reduce the effects of cysteinyl leukotrienes and their contribution to airway inflammation, smooth muscle constriction, and other cellular changes associated with asthma and allergic rhinitis. This, in turn, helps to alleviate the symptoms of these conditions.

Please note that this information is a summary and should be used as a reference. It is important to follow the specific dosing instructions provided by your healthcare professional for your condition.
Montelukast (Monas) is primarily metabolized by the liver through cytochrome P450 enzymes. Co-administration with potent inducers of cytochrome P450 isoenzymes, such as phenobarbital, phenytoin, and rifampicin, may result in increased metabolism of montelukast. This increased metabolism can lead to decreased plasma concentrations of montelukast, potentially reducing its effectiveness.
When montelukast is used concomitantly with these potent inducers, close monitoring of the therapeutic response to montelukast is recommended. It may be necessary to adjust the dosage of montelukast or consider alternative treatment options if the therapeutic response is diminished. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional who can assess the specific situation and provide appropriate guidance.
Hypersensitivity.
The use of Montelukast in pregnant women has not been extensively studied in well-controlled trials. Therefore, its use during pregnancy should only be considered if absolutely necessary and the potential benefits outweigh the potential risks.
Montelukast is known to be excreted in breast milk, and caution should be exercised when administering it to nursing women. It is important to monitor and observe for any potential adverse effects in the infant when a nursing woman is taking montelukast.
