LASMA LC TAB 10 S

About

Lasma LC Tab is a combination medication primarily indicated for the comprehensive management of allergic conditions and asthma. It typically comprises Levocetirizine, a potent second-generation antihistamine, and Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist. Levocetirizine works by selectively blocking histamine H1 receptors, thereby inhibiting the action of histamine, a key mediator in allergic reactions, which reduces symptoms like sneezing, rhinorrhea, and pruritus. Montelukast, on the other hand, selectively antagonizes the cysteinyl leukotriene type 1 (CysLT1) receptor, preventing the inflammatory effects of leukotrienes in the airways, leading to reduced bronchoconstriction and inflammation. This dual mechanism of action provides effective relief from both allergic rhinitis and asthma symptoms, offering a synergistic approach to respiratory and allergic health.
