Product Details

Respicare Tablets 10mg offer a convenient and effective solution for managing asthma and allergy symptoms. Each chewable tablet contains 10mg of Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist. Montelukast works by blocking the action of substances in the body that cause inflammation and narrowing of the airways, making it easier to breathe. The chewable form of Respicare is designed for ease of use, especially for those who have difficulty swallowing regular tablets.

Purposes

Respicare Tablets are primarily used to control and prevent asthma symptoms, including wheezing and shortness of breath. They are also effective in preventing exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Additionally, this medication is useful in alleviating symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy or runny nose, providing relief from seasonal allergies and hay fever.

Warning’s

Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using Respicare Tablets Chew 10mg, as the effects during pregnancy and lactation are not well-documented. It's important to avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if the medication causes dizziness or drowsiness. Alcohol should be avoided to prevent potential interactions and increased side effects.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Respicare 10mg include headache, abdominal pain, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Rare but serious side effects may include severe allergic reactions like anaphylaxis, angioedema, and liver issues such as cholestatic hepatitis. If you experience symptoms like swelling, severe rash, or persistent abdominal pain, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Cautions

Patients should use Respicare Chew 10mg with caution if they have a history of liver disease or if they are sensitive to aspartame, as the tablets contain this sweetener. This medication should not be used as a substitute for inhaled or oral steroid therapies for asthma management and should not be used for acute asthma attacks. Regular monitoring is advised, especially for individuals with conditions such as Churg-Strauss Syndrome, where the medication might exacerbate symptoms.
