Monas Tablet 10 mg contains Montelukast Sodium, a leukotriene receptor antagonist widely prescribed for the long-term management of asthma and allergic rhinitis. It works by blocking leukotrienes—chemical mediators released during allergic and inflammatory reactions that cause airway narrowing, swelling, and mucus production.

Monas 10 mg is typically indicated for adults and adolescents aged 15 years and above, providing effective control of respiratory allergies and chronic asthma symptoms. With once-daily dosing, it offers convenient and consistent symptom management, improving overall quality of life.

Indications

Monas Tablet 10 mg is indicated for:

• Prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma

• Prevention of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction

• Relief of seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever)

• Relief of perennial allergic rhinitis

• Reduction of nighttime asthma symptoms

It is not intended for the immediate relief of acute asthma attacks but plays an important role in long-term control therapy.

Mechanism of Action

Montelukast Sodium acts by:

• Selectively blocking cysteinyl leukotriene type-1 (CysLT1) receptors

• Preventing leukotriene-induced airway inflammation

• Reducing bronchoconstriction and mucus secretion

• Decreasing airway edema and hypersensitivity

By targeting leukotrienes rather than histamines, Monas provides effective control of both allergic and inflammatory components of respiratory disease.

• Can be taken with or without food
