Montek Plus

Product Overview

Montek Plus is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Bambuterol as active ingredients. Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, helps manage asthma and allergic rhinitis by inhibiting leukotrienes – inflammatory chemicals that trigger allergic responses. Bambuterol, a long-acting beta-agonist bronchodilator, relaxes airway muscles to improve breathing. Together, these components provide dual-action relief for asthma symptoms.

• Prevention and management of chronic asthma symptoms (wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, coughing)
