Alternative Medications to Singulair
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Singulair is the brand name of a medication called montelukast. It is a leukotrine receptor antagonist that blocks leukotrines. These are chemicals that trigger an allergic response in the human body. Singulair is prescribed by doctors to treat allergy symptoms and exercise-induced asthma. It is considered a long-term treatment and is often prescribed indefinitely. Singulair does not cause drowsiness, so it is often preferred to other sleep-inducing medications.
