scienceMechanism of Action (How it works)

expand_more

Deskast 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.
