Introduction
Elc-M Syrup is a combination medicine used to alleviate allergic symptoms like runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, watery eyes, and congestion. It contains Levocetirizine and Montelukast, which work together to block chemical messengers responsible for allergic reactions and inflammation. While generally safe, it may cause side effects such as dizziness, sleepiness, and dry mouth. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult a doctor for any concerns, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Elc-M Syrup may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How it works
Elc-M Syrup is a combination of Levocetirizine and Montelukast. Levocetirizine is an antiallergic that blocks histamine, a chemical messenger responsible for runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist that blocks leukotriene, another chemical messenger, reducing inflammation in the airways and nose, thereby improving symptoms.
