Allegra M Strip Of 10 Tablets
Medical Description
Allegra-M tablet is an anti-allergic medicine used to treat allergic rhinitis symptoms. It contains two active ingredients: montelukast and fexofenadine. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that works by blocking the production of leukotrienes, chemicals that cause allergic rhinitis symptoms. Fexofenadine is an antihistamine that works by blocking the effects of histamine, another chemical that causes allergic symptoms.
Allergic rhinitis is also known as hay fever. It is a condition of inflammation or swelling inside your nose due to an allergen. Allergic rhinitis is a common condition that affects an individual's quality of life and, if left untreated, can contribute to asthma, otitis media and sinusitis. A few other tablets with montelukast and fexofenadine as active components are Montair Fx tablet, Telekast F tablet, Montek Fx tablet, Odimont Fx tablet and Glemont F tablet.
Allegra M tablets should be taken as advised by your doctor for the suggested duration. You can take this tablet with or without food, but preferably at the same time every day for better results. While on this medication, you may experience dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. Thus, be cautious while driving and operating the machine.
While taking this medicine, you should rinse your nose regularly to clear the allergen from your nasal passage. As a precautionary measure, you should avoid exposure to a particular allergen you are aware of or suspect is triggering your allergy.
