Singulair 10 mg Tablet

Singulair Uses:

Asthma:

This medication is used for the treatment of asthma and the prevention of daytime and nighttime symptoms. It can be used either alone or with other medications to improve and maintain asthma conditions.

This medication is only to be used as a long-term treatment and should not be used to stop asthma attacks at their onset under any circumstance.

Exercise Induced Bronchoconstriction:

Singulair can be used before exercise for those who suffer from asthma where bronchospasms (asthma attacks) are often triggered during or after rigorous activity.

Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis: Singulair may also be used as an alternative treatment method to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies where other allergy medications have failed. Ask your doctor about Singulair if you suffer from perennial allergies (year-round) or seasonal allergies and previous treatments have not worked for you.

How Does It Work?

Montelukast is what’s known as a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA). LTRAs work by preventing the body from releasing leukotrienes, which are chemicals that are released when an allergen enters the body. These chemicals are responsible for swelling the lungs and tightening air-passageway muscles, resulting in difficulty breathing and asthma symptoms. By stopping these chemicals from being released, the airways will relax, making it easier to breathe.
