About M-Levo Tablet

M-Levo Tablet is used to relieve and/or prevent symptoms of allergic rhinitis (seasonal and perennial). It is also used to treat rhinitis associated with asthma and urticaria. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements, typically not harmful to your body.

M-Levo Tablet contains Montelukast and Levocetirizine. Montelukast blocks a chemical messenger called leukotriene, helping to reduce inflammation and swelling in the nose. Levocetirizine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for allergic symptoms. Together, M-Levo Tablet provides relief from allergic conditions.

Sometimes, M-Levo Tablet may cause side effects like abdominal pain, skin rash, sleepiness, headache, and fatigue. Most of these side effects of M-Levo Tablet are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not take M-Levo Tablet if you are allergic to any of its components. Check with your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other prescribed or non-prescribed medicines. Keep your doctor informed if you have any pre-existing medical conditions.
