PRODUCT DETAILS
About Deskasis-M Tablet
DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST belongs to the class of medications ‘antiallergic’ used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) is an allergic response to certain foods or pollen, pet dander, or other allergens. Allergic condition varies from person to person. It is typically characterized by allergic symptoms such as a runny nose, sneezing, red, watery, itchy, and swollen eyes.
DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is a combination of two medicines: Desloratadine and Montelukast. Desloratadine is an antihistamine and acts by blocking histamine's action (chemicals causing allergic symptoms) and reducing the allergic reaction. It provides quick relief from allergic symptoms. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist, which blocks a chemical messenger (leukotriene) and reduces inflammation and swelling in the nose.
DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is available in the form of tablets. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST are abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, and dry mouth. These side effects usually go away without any medical treatment. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not take DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST if you are allergic to Desloratadine, Montelukast, or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST, inform your doctor about all the allergies you have, if any. DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is not recommended in patients who have medical or family history of seizures, kidney failure, and phenylketonuria (an inherited disease that causes a build-up of amino acid phenylalanine in the body). DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
