Amist L Oral Suspension is a medication used to treat symptoms of allergy, asthma, and skin allergies in children. Amist L Oral Suspension is commonly prescribed in children to treat symptoms of allergy such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, congestion, and watery eyes. It may also help in the treatment of asthma and skin allergies.
Amist L Oral Suspension contains Levocetirizine and Montelukast. Together these two relieve sneezing and runny nose caused due to allergies. Levocetirizine is an antiallergic that blocks a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible for runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist. It works by blocking another chemical messenger (leukotriene). This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose and improves symptoms.
Can I combine cough and allergy medicines for my child?
No. Do not mix cough and allergy medications because they usually both contain similar ingredients. Mixing these types of medications may lead to double dosing of active components, potentially causing serious adverse effects.
Can I decrease the dosage of Amist L Oral Suspension on my own if my child shows improvement?
No. Follow the prescribed dose as instructed by your child's doctor. Do not adjust the dosage independently, as this may negatively impact their health. Increasing the dose might cause unwanted side effects such as sedation and depression, while decreasing it or abruptly stopping it may result in rebound exacerbation of symptoms.
