📝 Description

Myteka 10 mg tablet contains montelukast sodium 10 mg and is a leukotriene receptor antagonist. It is used to prevent and manage asthma symptoms—including wheezing, coughing, bronchospasm, and chest tightness—and to relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis (both seasonal and perennial). It’s also effective in preventing exercise‑induced bronchoconstriction when taken before physical activity 

✅ Key Indications

• Asthma control: helps prevent and manage chronic symptoms by reducing airway inflammation.

• Allergic rhinitis: alleviates sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, and itching.

• Exercise‑induced bronchoconstriction (EIB): protects against asthma triggered by exercise 

💊 Dosage & Administration

• Adults and adolescents (≥15 years): take 1 tablet (10 mg) once daily, preferably in the evening, with or without food.

• For exercise‑induced symptoms, take 1 tablet at least 2 hours before exercise—do not exceed one dose in 24 hours.

• Tablets should be swallowed whole, not crushed or chewed 

⚠️ Precautions & Contraindications

• Not intended for acute asthma relief—not a rescue medication

• Use cautiously if you have:

  • Liver disease (may require dosage adjustment),

  • Mood or psychiatric history (can affect mental health),

  • Phenylketonuria (PKU) (in forms containing phenylalanine)

• Discontinue and consult your doctor if you experience any allergic reactions to montelukast
