Overview Lekast Tablet

Aller-Ease tablets combine medications to alleviate allergic reactions. These reactions include nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, watery eyes, and airway inflammation. The tablets ease breathing difficulties. Dosage and duration are determined by your physician and depend on individual response and condition. Continue the prescribed treatment; premature cessation may cause symptom recurrence and condition worsening. Inform your doctor of all other medications you're using, as interactions are possible. Common side effects – nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, dry mouth, headache, rash, flu-like symptoms, and tiredness – are often temporary. Report any concerning side effects immediately. Drowsiness and dizziness are possible; avoid driving or tasks requiring alertness until effects are known. Alcohol should be avoided due to increased drowsiness risk. Never self-medicate or share this medication. Adequate hydration is recommended. Kidney disease should be disclosed to your doctor before commencing treatment.

How Lekast Tablet works:

Aller-Ease tablets unite levocetirizine and montelukast to alleviate allergic sneezing and rhinorrhea. Levocetirizine, an antihistamine, counteracts histamine, a mediator of allergic symptoms like nasal discharge, lacrimation, and sneezing. Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, inhibits leukotriene activity, thus lessening airway and nasal inflammation and improving symptom control.
