ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST
About
ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).
ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST is a combination of three drugs: Acebrophylline (bronchodilator), Desloratadine (antihistamine), and Montelukast (leukotriene receptor antagonist). Acebrophylline works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Additionally, it also acts as a mucolytic (cough/sputum thinner) agent and helps in thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. This helps to cough out easily and makes breathing easier by opening airways. Desloratadine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Montelukast works by blocking the action of chemicals called leukotrienes that cause inflammation (swelling) and increased mucus production in the airways. Thereby reducing inflammation, mucus production, and narrowing in the airways.
Take ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST as prescribed. You are advised to take ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST for as long as your doctor has recommended it based on your medical condition.

However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If your breathing worsens or you often wake up at night with asthma or experience chest tightness in the morning, please consult a doctor immediately, as these might be signs indicating that your asthma is not controlled properly and requires an alternate or additional treatment. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST. Do not take ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST if you have a heart rhythm disorder that causes fast heartbeats. Avoid taking ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST if you have low blood pressure, irregular heartbeats, hemodynamic instability (unstable blood pressure), had a heart attack, kidney or liver diseases.

Habit Forming
Diet & Lifestyle Advise
Eat foods rich in potassium such as tomatoes, bananas, asparagus, oranges, potatoes, avocados, dark leafy greens, and beetroots as potassium is important for lung function and a deficiency in potassium may cause breathing problems.
Drink plenty of fluids every day to thin mucus which makes it easier to cough out.
Avoid foods such as cabbage, beans, garlic, onions, shrimp, pickled food, dried fruits, fried foods, carbonated drinks, wine, bottled lemon, and lime juice as it may worsen asthma symptoms.
Exercise regularly to strengthen your breathing muscles and boost your immune system. Learning breathing exercises will help you move more air in and out of your lungs.
Do meditation, deep breathing, regular exercise, and try progressive muscle relaxation techniques to get relief from stress and reduce the risk of an asthma attack.
Quit smoking as it may reduce the effectiveness of the ACEBROPHYLLINE+DESLORATADINE+MONTELUKAST and irritate the lungs and worsen breathing problems.
Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Asthma: It is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. The symptoms of asthma include wheezing (whistling sound while breathing), shortness of breath, chest tightness, and cough, especially at night. The symptoms of mild persistent asthma may occur more than 2 times a week and up to 4 nights in a month, whereas, in the case of severe persistent asthma, the symptoms occur several times every day and most nights. The asthma treatment includes medication, breathing exercises, and self-care.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): It is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes). The major cause of COPD is smoking tobacco. Also, long-term exposure to fumes and chemicals may lead to COPD. The symptoms include chronic cough, shortness of breath, or wheezing (whistle sound while breathing).
