Montelukast further relieves symptoms by blocking leukotrienes, thus reducing airway and nasal inflammation.

Refrain from alcohol and other central nervous system depressants, including cough/cold medications, pain relievers, and sleep aids, to prevent excessive drowsiness and potential accidents.
