Teloair 10
Teloair® is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that blocks substances called
leukotrienes. Leukotrienes cause narrowing and swelling of airways in the lungs
and cause allergy symptoms. By blocking leukotrienes, Teloair® improves
asthma symptoms, helps control asthma and improves seasonal allergy
symptoms.
Asthma is a long-term disease. Asthma includes:
• difficulty breathing because of narrowed airways. This narrowing of airways
worsens and improves in response to various conditions.
• sensitive airways that react to many things, such as cigarette smoke, pollen, cold
air, or exercise.
• swelling (inflammation) in the lining of airways. Symptoms of asthma include:
Coughing, wheezing, and chest tightness.
Seasonal allergies (also known as hay fever or seasonal allergic rhinitis) are an
allergic response often caused by airborne pollens from trees, grasses and
weeds.The symptoms of seasonal allergies typically may include: stuffy, runny,
itchy nose; sneezing; watery, swollen, red, itchy eyes.
