M-Lucas 10 mg Tablet ~ 1 Strip

Product Overview

M-Lucas 10 is an effective, non-steroidal daily maintenance tablet engineered for individuals suffering from chronic respiratory conditions and environmental allergies. By binding selectively to cysteinyl leukotriene ($CysLT_1$) receptors, it halts airway inflammation, reduces mucus production, and prevents smooth muscle constriction in the lungs. It is the ideal foundational therapy for achieving long-term asthma control and comprehensive seasonal allergy relief.

Key Indications

·       Prophylaxis & Chronic Asthma Management: Acts as a long-term preventive treatment to reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.

·       Seasonal & Perennial Allergic Rhinitis: Relieves persistent nasal allergy symptoms including continuous sneezing, runny nose, itchy nasal passages, and sinus congestion.

·       Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction (EIB): Prevents acute shortness of breath, wheezing, and airway narrowing triggered by physical exertion or exercise.

Key Benefits

·       24-Hour Continuous Defense: A single daily tablet delivers sustained protection against environmental triggers and night-time asthma symptoms.

·       Dual Action Relief: Simultaneously manages lower respiratory conditions (asthma) and upper respiratory symptoms (allergic rhinitis).

·       Improves Pulmonary Function: Helps maintain consistently open airways, significantly reducing reliance on quick-relief rescue inhalers over time.

Dosage & Administration

·       Standard Dose (Adults & Adolescents 15 Years and Older): Take 1 tablet (10 mg) once daily.

·       Timing: For optimal asthma and allergy coverage, it is highly recommended to take the tablet in the evening.

·       How to Take: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. It may be taken with or without food.

·       Crucial Note: M-Lucas 10 is a preventative maintenance drug and will not stop an acute asthma attack. Always keep your fast-acting rescue inhaler close at hand for emergency relief.
