Description
Fexofenadine 120mg and Montelukast 10mg- The combination medication consists of two formulations: Fexofenadine 120mg and Montelukast 10mg. It is used to treat runny noses, sneezing, stuffy noses, and watery eyes caused by allergies. Allergies result from the overactivation of the immune cells. The release of Histamine is the main chemical responsible for allergic symptoms.
Fexofenadine belongs to the group of medications known as antihistamines, more specifically a second-generation (or non-sedating) H1 receptor antagonist. It works by blocking the action of the Histamine chemical messenger. On the other hand, Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist that prevents the action of the chemical messenger leukotriene. Hence, this dual-action mechanism acts as a potent combination in controlling allergic symptoms and provides reliable relief. Moreover, this combination is also used to manage seasonal allergies, chronic urticaria, and asthma symptoms.

How Do Fexofenadine and Montelukast Tablets Work?
This combination formulation works by combining two different classes of anti-allergic medications that work together to reduce symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, itching, nasal congestion, and allergic asthma. Both medicines target different pathways in the allergic response. The detailed mechanism of this tablet has been described as follows:
Fexofenadine– When our body encounters any allergens (pollen, dust, etc ), our body releases histamine, a chemical messenger, hence, resulting in itching, swelling, sneezing, and redness. That’s where Fexofenadine works by blocking H1 histamine receptors in the nose, eyes, throat, and skin. Therefore, by blocking these receptors, Fexofenadine prevents histamine from attaching and causing symptoms.
Montelukast– During an allergic reaction, the body releases leukotrienes, which cause airway swelling, tightening of breathing tubes, and other symptoms. Montelukast works by blocking the cysteinyl-leukotriene receptors, preventing leukotrienes from producing their effects. Hence, results in reduced inflammation, decreased nasal blockage, and prevention of asthma-related symptoms.
