Introduction

Monkezin Syrup is a combination medication containing Levocetirizine (2.5mg) and Montelukast (4mg). It is designed to provide relief from the symptoms of allergic rhinitis and asthma. Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that helps reduce symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itching.
