Description

Aireez 5mg is a chewable tablet manufactured by PharmaEvo, formulated with Montelukast Sodium as its active ingredient. Each pack contains 30 tablets intended primarily for children and adolescents who require ongoing support in managing respiratory conditions such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montelukast belongs to a class of medicines known as leukotriene receptor antagonists, which work by blocking substances in the body that contribute to airway inflammation, tightening, and excess mucus production. Rather than providing immediate relief during a sudden asthma attack, Aireez is generally used as a preventive, long-term measure to reduce the frequency and severity of breathing difficulties and allergy-related symptoms over time.

Ingredients

The core active component of Aireez is Montelukast Sodium, present in a strength of 5mg per tablet. In addition to the active ingredient, the tablet contains pharmaceutical-grade excipients such as sweetening agents, flavoring components, binders, and coating materials that give the tablet its chewable texture and palatable taste, which is particularly important given that this strength is commonly used in younger patients. These additional ingredients support tablet stability and ease of administration without contributing any therapeutic action of their own.

Dosage Form

Aireez is available as a chewable oral tablet containing 5mg of Montelukast Sodium per tablet. The tablets are supplied in a pack of 30, allowing for a convenient month-long supply when taken as a once-daily dose, subject to the prescribing doctor’s instructions.

Uses

Aireez is primarily used for the long-term control and prevention of asthma symptoms, including wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness that may occur during the day or night, or that may be triggered by exercise. It is also commonly prescribed to relieve symptoms of seasonal and year-round allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy or watery eyes. This medicine works best as a maintenance therapy and is not designed to stop a sudden asthma attack that is already in progress; a fast-acting rescue inhaler should be used for that purpose as advised by a doctor.

How to Use

Aireez tablets are typically taken once daily in the evening, as directed by the prescribing physician, since consistent timing may help maintain steady symptom control. The tablet should be chewed thoroughly before swallowing rather than swallowed whole, and it can be taken with or without food. Parents or caregivers administering this medicine to children should follow the exact dosage instructions provided by the doctor and should not increase or decrease the dose without medical advice. Regular use, even when the child appears symptom-free, is often necessary to maintain the preventive benefits of the medication.

Side Effects

Most patients tolerate Montelukast well, though some may experience mild side effects such as headache, stomach pain, fatigue, or a mild fever. Occasionally, symptoms like cough, sore throat, or nasal congestion unrelated to the underlying allergy may occur. In rare instances, some patients have reported mood-related changes, including irritability, restlessness, sleep disturbances, or unusual behavior, and any such changes should be reported to a doctor promptly. If signs of a serious allergic reaction occur, such as swelling of the face or throat, difficulty breathing, or a widespread skin rash, medical attention should be sought immediately.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Aireez should only be used during pregnancy if a doctor determines it is clearly necessary, as available safety data in pregnant individuals is limited. Likewise, caution is advised when this medicine is required during breastfeeding, since it is not completely established how much of the active ingredient may transfer into breast milk or what effect it could have on a nursing infant. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should always consult their healthcare provider before starting or continuing this treatment.

Storage Instructions

Aireez tablets should be kept in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, ideally at normal room temperature. The tablets should remain in their original packaging until they are ready to be used, in order to preserve their quality. As with all medicines, Aireez must be stored safely out of the reach and sight of children, despite being formulated for pediatric use.

FAQs

Can Aireez be used as a rescue medicine during an asthma attack?
No, Aireez is a preventive treatment and does not act quickly enough to relieve a sudden asthma attack; a fast-acting inhaler should be used in such situations.

How soon does Aireez start working?
While some effects may appear within a day, full preventive benefits for asthma and allergy control are usually seen after consistent daily use over one to two weeks.

Is chewing the tablet necessary?
Yes, since Aireez is formulated as a chewable tablet, it should be chewed properly before swallowing rather than taken whole.

What should I do if a dose is missed?
If a dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as it is remembered, unless it is nearly time for the next dose, in which case the missed dose should be skipped and the regular schedule resumed.
