Scientific Evidence:

Montelukast, the active ingredient in Montelar tablets, is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that works by blocking the action of leukotrienes in the body. Leukotrienes are chemicals in the body that can cause asthma symptoms and inflammation. Clinical studies have shown that montelukast is effective in improving asthma symptoms, reducing the frequency of asthma attacks, and improving lung function.

In a study published in the Journal of Asthma, researchers found that montelukast therapy significantly reduced asthma exacerbations and improved asthma control compared to a placebo. The study concluded that montelukast is a valuable treatment option for patients with asthma.
