Aeron Oral Granules 4 mg/3.5 gm contains Montelukast Sodium, a medication commonly used to help prevent and manage symptoms of Asthma and Allergic Rhinitis. It belongs to a class of medicines known as leukotriene receptor antagonists, which work by blocking substances in the body called leukotrienes that cause airway inflammation, swelling, and tightening.

Aeron Oral Granules are specially formulated for infants and young children who may have difficulty swallowing tablets. The granules can be easily administered by mixing them with a small amount of soft food or directly into the mouth, making it a convenient treatment option for pediatric patients.

Montelukast helps improve breathing by reducing inflammation in the airways and preventing the narrowing of bronchial tubes. With regular use, Aeron Oral Granules help control asthma symptoms, decrease the frequency of asthma attacks, and relieve allergy-related symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion.

Mechanism of Action

Montelukast works by blocking leukotriene receptors in the airways. Leukotrienes are inflammatory chemicals released by the immune system during allergic reactions.

These substances cause:

• Airway inflammation

• Bronchoconstriction (narrowing of airways)

• Increased mucus production

By inhibiting leukotriene activity, montelukast helps:

• Relax airway muscles

• Reduce inflammation in the lungs

• Improve airflow and breathing

• Decrease asthma attacks and allergy symptoms

Unlike rescue inhalers, montelukast is used for preventive treatment and should be taken regularly as prescribed.

General guidelines include:

  • Given directly into the child's mouth, or

  • Mixed with a small amount of soft food such as applesauce, mashed banana, or yogurt.

The mixture should be consumed immediately after preparation and not stored for later use.

Possible Side Effects

Most children tolerate montelukast well, but some side effects may occur, including:

• Headache

• Fever

• Abdominal pain

• Cough

Rarely, behavioral or mood-related changes may occur. Parents should inform a healthcare professional if unusual symptoms appear.
