Sandoz Montelukast 5mg Tablet 10s (strip)

Sandoz Montelukast 5mg Tablet contains montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist used to help manage asthma and relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis. This chewable tablet is commonly prescribed for children and adolescents and is taken once daily as part of long-term symptom control. Some people may experience side effects such as headache, abdominal pain, thirst, dizziness, or fatigue, while mood or sleep-related changes have also been reported in some individuals. Because this medicine works gradually, it is important to take it consistently every evening rather than expecting immediate symptom relief. It should not be used as a substitute for a fast-acting rescue inhaler during an acute asthma attack. If you notice unusual mood changes, vivid dreams, or behavioural changes after starting treatment, speak with your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

The usual dose for children aged 6 to 14 years is one 5mg chewable tablet taken once daily in the evening, unless your doctor recommends a different dosing schedule.

Store the tablets below 30°C in their original blister packaging, protected from moisture and direct light. Keep out of reach of children, as the flavoured chewable tablets may be mistaken for sweets.

• Take the tablet at approximately the same time every evening.
• Chew the tablet completely before swallowing.
• Keep a separate rescue inhaler available for sudden asthma symptoms if prescribed.
• Store the tablets securely out of children's reach.
• Monitor for any mood, behaviour, or sleep changes and report them promptly.
• Do not stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor.

Chew the tablet thoroughly before swallowing. It is usually taken once daily in the evening, with or without food. Taking the medicine at approximately the same time each day helps maintain its effectiveness.
