How L Cbit Mk Kid 2.5/4 MG Tablet 10 Works?

L Cbit Mk Kid 2.5/4 MG Tablet 10 consists of two active ingredients that work in tandem:

Levocetirizine (2.5 mg): It is an antihistamine that selectively binds to the H1 receptors in the body, preventing histamine from attaching to these receptors and causing allergic symptoms.
Montelukast (4 mg): It works by selectively binding to certain receptors in the lungs and bronchial tubes known as cysteinyl leukotriene receptor CysLT1. Doing so blocks the action of substances called leukotrienes that cause inflammation, narrowing of airways, and increased mucus production.
