Singulair Chemical Information

montelukast sodium - The monosodium salt of montelukast, a selective and orally active leukotriene receptor antagonist with anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator activity. Montelukast sodium selectively and competitively blocks the cysteinyl leukotriene 1 (CysLT1) receptor, thereby preventing leukotriene D4 from binding to its receptor. This prevents leukotriene-mediated activities, including enhanced migration of eosinophils and neutrophils, increased adhesion of leukocytes, increased monocyte and neutrophil aggregation, increased airway edema, increased capillary permeability and bronchoconstriction.
