Lok AR Syrup is a combination medicine used to treat allergic symptoms such as runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, watery eyes, and congestion or stuffiness. Lok AR Syrup is a combination medicine used in the treatment of allergic symptoms such as runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, watery eyes, and congestion or stuffiness. It also reduces inflammation in the airways and makes breathing easier.
Lok AR Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Levocetirizine and Montelukast, which relieves sneezing and runny nose due to allergies. Levocetirizine is an antiallergic which 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.
