What is Montelukast?

What is Montelukast used for?

Montelukast acts on the leukotriene pathway to control chronic respiratory and allergic conditions in children.

Asthma: reduces the frequency of bronchoconstriction episodes and improves overall lung function. Allergic rhinitis: alleviates nasal congestion, sneezing and itchy eyes associated with seasonal allergies. Exercise‑induced bronchospasm: helps prevent airway narrowing triggered by physical activity.

What are the side effects of Montelukast?

Montelukast is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.

Common Side Effects: - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Abdominal pain: occasional discomfort. - Cough: transient irritation. - Nasopharyngitis: mild upper‑respiratory infection. - Rash: mild skin irritation. - Fever: low‑grade temperature elevation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Mood changes: depression or suicidal thoughts. - Allergic reactions: hives, swelling, or anaphylaxis. - Hepatotoxicity: abnormal liver enzymes. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: severe skin eruption. - Angioedema: rapid swelling of face or throat. - Blood dyscrasias: rare blood count abnormalities.

What precautions apply to Montelukast?

Montelukast should be used with awareness of specific safety considerations.

Dose adjustment: follow the prescriber's recommendation for age and weight. Monitor mood: watch for signs of depression or suicidal ideation. Liver function: assess hepatic enzymes in patients with known liver disease. Drug interactions: review concomitant medications for potential CYP450 effects. Pregnancy and lactation: discuss risks with a healthcare professional before use. Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, retain in original packaging, protect from moisture.

What does Montelukast interact with?
