Benefits of Ventidox-DL Tablet

In Treatment of Sneezing and runny nose due to allergies

Ventidox-DL Tablet is used to treat an itchy, stuffy, or runny nose, sneezing, or other symptoms caused by seasonal hay fever (allergic rhinitis).

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Ventidox-DL Tablet may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

How Ventidox-DL Tablet works

Ventidox-DL Tablet is a combination of two medicines: desloratadine and montelukast, which treat sneezing and a runny nose caused by allergies. Desloratadine is an antiallergic that blocks the action of a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible for a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist. It works by blocking the action of another chemical messenger (leukotriene). This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose and improves symptoms.
