Breaze-L Tablet

Description

Breaze-L Tablet is a dual-action anti-allergic medicine prescribed for the treatment and prevention of allergic rhinitis, asthma, seasonal allergies, and chronic breathing problems. It combines:

• Levocetirizine (5mg): A potent antihistamine that blocks histamine, the chemical responsible for allergic reactions such as sneezing, itching, runny nose, and watery eyes.

• Montelukast (10mg): A leukotriene receptor antagonist that prevents airway inflammation and bronchospasms, making it especially effective in asthma management and exercise-induced breathing issues.

This combination works by providing fast relief from nasal and respiratory allergy symptoms while also preventing asthma attacks triggered by allergens, pollution, or exercise.
