Allergic symptoms like sneezing and nasal congestion find relief in Olvicet-M Tablet, a dual-action formulation combining levocetirizine and montelukast. Levocetirizine, an antihistamine, counteracts histamine, a substance triggering allergic reactions such as rhinorrhea, lacrimation, and sneezing.
