Deskast Tablet

Deskast Tablet is a combination of Desloratadine (5mg) and Montelukast (10mg), used to treat allergic conditions such as allergic rhinitis, hay fever, and asthma-related symptoms. Desloratadine is an antihistamine that blocks the effects of histamine, providing relief from sneezing, itching, and runny nose. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that reduces inflammation in the airways, improving breathing and reducing asthma symptoms. Deskast Tablet offers all-day relief from allergy and respiratory discomfort.
