Indications:
Lumona 5mg is indicated for:

Prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma in pediatric patients aged 6 to 14 years.
Relief of symptoms of Seasonal and Perennial Allergic Rhinitis in pediatric patients aged 6 to 14 years.
Prevention of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction (EIB) in patients aged 6 years and older.

Pharmacology:
Montelukast is a selective leukotriene receptor antagonist that inhibits the effects of cysteinyl leukotrienes in the airways. These leukotrienes are involved in the pathophysiology of asthma and allergic rhinitis, leading to airway edema, smooth muscle contraction, and inflammation. By blocking leukotriene receptors, Montelukast reduces bronchoconstriction and inflammation.

Dosage:

Pediatric patients (6 to 14 years): 5 mg once daily.
For asthma: Administer in the evening.
For allergic rhinitis: Administer at any time of the day.

Administration:
Administer orally, with or without food. The chewable tablet should be chewed before swallowing.

Interaction:
Montelukast can be co-administered with other therapies used in the prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma. No significant drug interactions have been observed with theophylline, prednisone, prednisolone, oral contraceptives, terfenadine, digoxin, and warfarin. However, caution should be exercised when co-administered with phenobarbital, phenytoin, or rifampicin, as they may reduce Montelukast plasma concentrations.

Contraindications:
Hypersensitivity to Montelukast or any component of the formulation.

Side Effects:

Common: Headache, abdominal pain.
Uncommon: Dizziness, rash, dyspepsia.
Rare: Elevated liver enzymes, eosinophilic conditions.

Pregnancy & Lactation:
Montelukast is classified as pregnancy category B. Animal studies have not shown adverse effects, but adequate studies in pregnant women are lacking. It is excreted in breast milk; caution is advised when administering to nursing mothers.

Precautions & Warnings:

Not indicated for acute asthma attacks; appropriate rescue medication should be available.
Should not be abruptly substituted for inhaled or oral corticosteroids.
Patients with aspirin-sensitive asthma should avoid aspirin and NSAIDs.

Therapeutic Class:
Leukotriene receptor antagonists.

Storage Conditions:
