FAQs on Elceta-M Tablet

Elceta-M Tablet combines Montelukast and Levocetirizine to alleviate allergy symptoms.

Montelukast blocks leukotrienes, reducing airway and nasal inflammation, providing additional symptom relief.
Elceta-M Tablets commonly cause drowsiness. Refrain from driving, operating machinery, or performing activities requiring alertness unless your doctor advises otherwise. Avoid alcohol, other central nervous system depressants (like cold medicines), certain pain relievers, and sleep aids, as these can significantly increase drowsiness and risk of falls or accidents.
Continue taking Elceta-M tablets as your doctor prescribed. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any side effects or worsening allergy symptoms.
Dry mouth is a possible side effect of Elceta-M Tablet. To alleviate this, drink water frequently throughout the day and keep a glass beside your bed. Use lip balm as needed for dry lips.
