MONTICOPE (Levocetirizine (5mg) + Montelukast (10mg))

Monticope Suspension is frequently prescribed for children to alleviate allergic symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, swelling, nasal congestion, and watery eyes. It may also be beneficial in managing asthma and skin allergies. It is important to administer this medication to your child consistently, either before or after meals, following the prescribed dosage and schedule. For asthma management, Monticope Suspension is best given in the evening or two hours prior to physical exertion. When addressing allergy symptoms, it can be given in the morning or evening, depending on when symptoms manifest. If your child experiences both conditions, the evening dose is preferred. If your child vomits within half an hour of taking the medication, you should repeat the administered dose unless it is close to the time for the next scheduled dose. Improvement may be observed after several doses, but it is essential to complete the full prescribed course to achieve optimal benefits. Abruptly discontinuing the medication may exacerbate your child’s symptoms. While Monticope Suspension is mostly well-tolerated, it may lead to minor and transient side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, rash, and headache. These effects typically resolve as your child’s body acclimates to the treatment. If any of these side effects persist or cause concern, please reach out to your child’s healthcare provider promptly. Additionally, inform your child’s doctor about any other medications currently being taken, as well as a complete medical history, including previous allergy episodes, cardiac issues, blood disorders, vascular problems, congenital anomalies, airway blockages, lung issues, skin conditions, and kidney or liver impairments. This information is vital for adjusting dosages and managing your child’s comprehensive treatment plan.
