What is Montelukast Sodium used for?

Montelukast Sodium, the active ingredient in Yekast, is primarily used to prevent and control asthma symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath. It is also prescribed to relieve symptoms of seasonal and year-round allergies, including sneezing, itching, and nasal congestion. This medication works by blocking substances in the body that cause allergy and asthma symptoms.

Store Yekast at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid crushing or chewing the tablets; swallow whole with water. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it’s almost time for the next dose. Do not double up to catch up.

What does Montelukast Sodium interact with?

Montelukast Sodium may interact with certain medications, including phenobarbital and rifampin, which can reduce its effectiveness.
