CompositionTelekast-10 Tablet is used for the long-term management of asthma and to relieve allergic symptoms such as a runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, itching and watery eyes in adults. It contains montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist.
It is also used to prevent exercise-induced breathing difficulty and to manage seasonal and year-round allergic rhinitis. Take it as prescribed, usually in the evening. Continue taking it regularly, even when you feel well, as it works to prevent symptoms rather than provide quick relief.
Avoiding known allergy triggers such as dust, pollen and pet dander, and following any written asthma action plan can help control symptoms alongside this medicine.
Tell your doctor about any history of liver disease or mental health problems, and about other medicines you take before starting. Report any marked mood or behaviour changes, or worsening breathing.
