Key Features

Active Ingredient
  • Active component of Generic Singulair is
    Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist
    (LTRA) or a leukotriene inhibitor
  • Approved by FDA as an anti-asthmatic and
    anti-allergic drug.

Working
  • Leukotrienes are substances which are released by
    the body when body is exposed to a foreign but
    harmless materials called allergen because of
    which allergic reaction is triggered in the body
  • Leukotrienes are inflammatory mediators that
    leads to inflammation in the lungs and
    contraction of the muscles around airways (upper
    airway congestion)
  • Leukotrienes cause asthma symptoms.
  • Montelukast in Generic Singulair is a leukotriene
    antagonist which restrains the action of these
    Leukotrienes
  • Prevents asthmatic events thus acting both as a
    prophylaxis (preventive) treatment and also as a
    maintenance therapy for asthma.
