About Desmont Tablet

Desmont Tablet is used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) is an allergic response to certain foods or pollen, pet dander, or other allergens. Allergic condition varies from person to person. It is typically characterized by allergic symptoms such as a runny nose, sneezing, red, watery, itchy, and swollen eyes.

Desmont Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Desloratadine and Montelukast.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side effects of Desmont Tablet are abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, and dry mouth. These side effects usually go away without any medical treatment. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult a doctor immediately.
