Glemont 10mg Tablet contains an anti-allergic medication primarily used to treat seasonal allergies and asthma. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements, known as allergens, typically not harmful to your body. Asthma is a local inflammatory disease of the lungs & airways associated with exaggerated airway narrowing and may produce extra mucus due to specific triggers like viruses, allergens & exercise.
Glemont 10mg Tablet contains a leukotriene antagonist, Montelukast. It works by blocking a chemical messenger (leukotriene) and reduces inflammation and swelling of airways in the lungs. This makes breathing easier and prevents asthma attacks. Leukotrienes are also released in your body when you have an allergic reaction to something like dust or pollen. Glemont 10mg Tablet helps to reduce the level of leukotrienes and stops you from getting symptoms.
