Ambroxol is a mucolytic which thins and loosens mucus making it easier to cough out. Levocetirizine is an antiallergic which relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist which works by blocking the action of leukotriene, a chemical messenger, reducing inflammation in the airways and nose and improving your symptoms.
