Montelukast
Common side effects include dyspepsia, abdominal pain, rash, dizziness, headache, fatigue, fever, trauma, cough, nasal congestion.
Levocetirizine
Use of levocetirizine has been associated with somnolence, fatigue, nasopharyngitis, dry mouth, and pharyngitis in subjects 12 years of age and older. Further uncommon incidences of adverse reactions like asthenia or abdominal pain were observed.
Montelukast
Eosinophilic Conditions: In rare cases, patients on therapy with Montelukast may present with systemic eosinophilia, sometimes presenting with clinical features of vasculitis consistent with Churg-Strauss syndrome, a condition that is often treated with systemic corticosteroid therapy. These events usually, but not always, have been associated with the reduction of oral corticosteroid therapy.
Levocetirizine
Patients should avoid engaging in hazardous occupations requiring complete mental alertness, such as driving or operating machinery, when taking levocetirizine. Precaution is recommended with intake of alcohol and in those who are on CNS depressants.
Renal Impairment
As levocetirizine is mainly excreted through urine, dosage adjustment may be required in patients with impaired renal function. Hence, this combination should be used with caution in such patients.
Hepatic Impairment
As montelukast is mainly excreted through bile, caution is to be exercised while prescribing this combination in patients with impaired hepatic function.
Store below 30°C and protect from light and moisture.
Keep out of reach of children.
