How Lok AR Syrup works:

Allergic sneezing and rhinorrhea find relief in Lok AR Syrup, a dual-action formulation blending levocetirizine and montelukast.

Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, inhibits leukotriene activity, thus lessening airway and nasal inflammation and improving symptom control.

Drowsiness is the most common side effect of Lok AR Syrup. Refrain from driving, operating machinery, or performing activities requiring alertness unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Continue taking Lok AR Syrup as your doctor directed. If you develop side effects or your allergies worsen, contact your doctor for reassessment.
Yes, dry mouth is a possible side effect of Lok AR Syrup. To alleviate this, drink water frequently throughout the day, including keeping some by your bedside. Use lip balm if your lips become dry as well.
