Maclastin M 20mg/10mg Tablet

Maclastin M 20mg/10mg Tablet is used to treat allergic conditions by reducing inflammation and blocking allergy-causing chemicals in the body. It helps in the following ways:

• Allergic Rhinitis: Relieves sneezing, runny or itchy nose, and nasal congestion by blocking histamine, a chemical that causes allergy symptoms.
• Asthma Management: Reduces swelling and mucus in the airways, making it easier to breathe.
• Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction: Prevents tightening of the airways during or after exercise, helping you breathe better while staying active.

• Maclastin M 20mg/10mg Tablet contains two active ingredients: Montelukast and Bilastine.
• Montelukast blocks leukotrienes, which reduces inflammation, swelling, and mucus in the airways. This helps prevent airway narrowing and improves breathing, making it effective in managing asthma and preventing exercise-induced breathing difficulties.
• Bilastine blocks histamine, a chemical that causes allergic reactions. It helps relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and nasal congestion.
• Together, Montelukast and Bilastine work to control both respiratory inflammation and allergy symptoms, providing better overall relief and improving breathing comfort.

• Maclastin M 20mg/10mg Tablet can be taken with or without food. However, avoid taking it with fruit juices, such as orange, apple, or grapefruit, as they may reduce its effectiveness.

• It is advised to avoid contact with known allergens (allergy-causing agents) such as pollen, dust, etc. Certain food items are known to cause allergies to you.
