Pranlu Suspension 100 mg/ml contains Pranlukast Hydrate, a leukotriene receptor antagonist used in the management of bronchial asthma and allergic conditions. This oral suspension is specially formulated for pediatric patients and individuals who have difficulty swallowing tablets. It helps control inflammation in the airways and reduces asthma-related symptoms when used regularly as prescribed.

Pranlukast works by blocking cysteinyl leukotriene (CysLT1) receptors. Leukotrienes are inflammatory chemicals released in the body during allergic reactions and asthma attacks. They cause airway narrowing, mucus production, and swelling of the bronchial tubes. By inhibiting leukotriene action, Pranlu Suspension helps prevent bronchoconstriction, reduces airway inflammation, and improves breathing.

This medicine is intended for long-term control and prevention of asthma symptoms. It is not suitable for the immediate relief of acute asthma attacks.

Composition

Each 1 ml of suspension contains:

• Pranlukast Hydrate equivalent to Pranlukast 100 mg

Indications

Pranlu Suspension is indicated for:

• Prophylactic treatment and long-term management of bronchial asthma

• Prevention of exercise-induced asthma

• Management of allergic rhinitis

• Reduction of asthma symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness

Mechanism of Action

Pranlukast selectively blocks leukotriene receptors in the respiratory tract. Leukotrienes are key mediators involved in airway inflammation and bronchospasm. By preventing leukotriene binding to their receptors, Pranlu Suspension reduces airway swelling, mucus secretion, and bronchial constriction. This leads to improved airflow and better control of asthma symptoms.
