Laveta M Syrup is a medication used to treat symptoms of allergy in children, such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, congestion, and watery eyes. Laveta M Syrup 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.
Laveta M Syrup 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 that works by blocking another chemical messenger (leukotriene). This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose and improves symptoms.
Can I give my child cough and allergy medicines together?
No, do not mix cough and allergy medicines because they usually both contain similar ingredients. This may result in double dosing of the active ingredients, thereby causing serious side effects.
Can I reduce the dose of Laveta M Syrup on my own if my child feels better?
No, adhere to the dosage prescribed by your child’s doctor. Do not increase or decrease the dose by yourself as it can impact your child's health. While increasing the dose may cause unwanted effects like sedation and depression, decreasing the dose or stopping it suddenly can lead to rebound reversal of all symptoms.
