Product Details

Myteka Tablets 5mg contain Montelukast Sodium, a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) that helps in managing asthma and allergic rhinitis. It works by blocking leukotrienes, chemicals in the body that cause airway constriction and inflammation. This mechanism helps in preventing asthma attacks and alleviating symptoms of allergies, making Myteka Tablets effective in long-term control of asthma and allergic rhinitis.

Purposes

Myteka Tablets 5mg are primarily used to treat asthma by preventing airway narrowing and inflammation. Additionally, these tablets are used to manage symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis and to prevent exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Myteka provides relief from allergic rhinitis by reducing sneezing, nasal congestion, and runny nose, making it ideal for patients with seasonal or year-round allergies.

Warnings

Warning 1: Montelukast should not be used as a replacement for inhaled or oral corticosteroids without consulting a healthcare professional. It is important not to stop any asthma medications abruptly.

Warning 2: Patients with aspirin-sensitive asthma should avoid taking aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), even while on Myteka Tablets.

Warning 3: Neuropsychiatric events, including changes in behavior or mood, have been reported. Patients should notify their doctor immediately if any unusual changes occur.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Myteka Tablets 5mg may include abdominal pain, headache, and thirst. In rare cases, more severe effects like anaphylaxis, angioedema, and seizures may occur. If any of these serious symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.

Cautions

Myteka Tablets are not meant for the treatment of acute asthma attacks. Always keep a rescue inhaler on hand for emergency situations. If you notice an increase in the need for your short-acting inhaler, consult your doctor for advice on managing your condition
