Active Ingredient & Action

Montelukast Sodium, the active ingredient in AURO-MONTELUKAST, works by selectively and competitively binding to the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor CysLT1, thereby inhibiting the action of cysteinyl leukotrienes, which are key mediators of inflammation and bronchoconstriction in asthma and allergic rhinitis.
