Quick info

Monticet 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. Monticet 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.

How it works

Monticet 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.

Direction of use

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Monticet Syrup may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
