Fexofenadine is a second-generation H1 antihistamine that blocks histamine-mediated allergic symptoms like sneezing, itching and watery eyes with minimal sedation. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks cysteinyl leukotrienes, reducing nasal congestion and inflammation.

Directions for use
