Overview

Sandoz Montelukast 10mg Tablet is supplied as a tablet, with Montelukast 10mg (as montelukast sodium). It is supplied in pack sizes of 10s and 30s.

No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.

If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.

Directions for Use

Sandoz Montelukast 10mg Tablet should be taken exactly as directed by the prescribing doctor, typically once daily in the evening, with or without food. It should be taken regularly, even when asthma symptoms are well controlled, and should not be stopped abruptly without medical advice, as it is intended for long-term prevention rather than immediate relief of a breathing emergency.

Dosage

The standard adult dose is one 10mg tablet taken once daily in the evening, as prescribed by the doctor. Montelukast should not be used to treat an acute asthma attack; a fast-acting reliever inhaler should be used for sudden breathing difficulty, and the doctor should be informed if reliever use increases.

Store Sandoz Montelukast 10mg Tablet below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep tablets in their original packaging until ready for use, and keep out of the reach of children.
