Abstract

Important symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) are nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itch, sneezing, nighttime, eye and generalsymptoms. In this study, we used montelukast as anti-inflammatory agent in SAR and compared it as monotherapy vs combination therapywith levocetirizine. Results with concomitant levocetirizine and montelukast treatment are better as compared to monotherapy with levocetirizinealone in seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR), especially pertaining to the symptoms of nasal congestion and rhinorrhea.
