Montelukast effectively controls the symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis, where it acts by blocking the release of certain chemicals (leukotrienes) in the respiratory tract that trigger the allergic and inflammatory responses. It also helps manage the narrowing of the airway tract, making breathing easier.
