About Monticope Suspension

Monticope Suspension is used to treat sneezing, runny nose due to seasonal and perennial allergies such as hay fever and allergic skin conditions in children. An allergic reaction is a response that occurs when foreign particles enter the body.

Monticope Suspension 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, Monticope Suspension provides relief from allergic conditions.

Sometimes, Monticope Suspension may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache, and fatigue. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your paediatrician.
