Mechanism of action
Montelukast selectively antagonizes cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLT1) on airway smooth muscle and inflammatory cells. By blocking these receptors, it prevents the inflammatory cascade triggered by leukotrienes, which are potent mediators released during allergic and asthmatic responses. This reduces airway edema, mucus secretion, and smooth muscle contraction, improving airflow and reducing asthma symptoms.
