Combinazione di Levocetirizine e Montelukast, Leukast M 5mg/10mg compresse allevia i sintomi allergici come starnuti e naso che cola. Levocetirizine, un antistaminico, inibisce l'istamina, mediatore chimico responsabile di naso che cola, occhi lacrimosi e starnuti. Montelukast, antagonista dei leucotrieni, blocca un altro mediatore chimico, riducendo l'infiammazione delle vie aeree e del naso e migliorando così i sintomi.
