Bilagran M

Bilagran M Suspension – Bilastine & Montelukast Oral Suspension

When allergic symptoms and respiratory sensitivities require effective dual-action relief in a child-friendly oral formulation, Bilagran M Suspension by Grantham Lifesciences provides a combination of Bilastine and Montelukast Sodium. Each 5 ml contains Bilastine IP 10 mg and Montelukast Sodium IP equivalent to Montelukast 4 mg in a flavoured, palatable base. Formulated in a delicious mango flavour, it is designed for oral administration as directed by a healthcare professional to manage allergic rhinitis and associated respiratory symptoms.

Why Bilagran M Suspension Stands Out:

• Dual-Action Formula: Combines a second-generation antihistamine (Bilastine 10 mg) with a leukotriene receptor antagonist (Montelukast 4 mg).

• Delicious Mango Flavour: Formulated in a flavoured, palatable base to ensure better compliance among pediatric patients.

• Comprehensive Allergy Relief: Helps relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, itching, and watery eyes.

• Child-Friendly Presentation: Supplied in a 60 ml bottle, easy to measure and administer as prescribed.

• Manufactured by Grantham Lifesciences: Produced to high-quality standards for effective pediatric and allergic care.

Uses & Indications

Bilagran M Suspension may be prescribed for:

• Allergic Rhinitis: Relief of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis symptoms including sneezing, nasal discharge, itching, and nasal block.

• Allergic Asthma & Respiratory Sensitivities: Co-management of allergic respiratory conditions where both histamine and leukotriene pathways contribute to symptoms.

• Skin Allergies: Management of allergic symptoms associated with chronic urticaria or skin rashes as advised by the physician.

Key Benefits

• Combines Two Synergistic Actives: Bilastine blocks histamine receptors while Montelukast inhibits leukotriene pathways, addressing dual allergy mechanisms.

• Non-Drowsy Profile: Bilastine is a modern non-sedating antihistamine, causing minimal sedation compared to older antihistamines.

• Palatable & Easy to Take: Delicious mango flavour facilitates easier administration for pediatric patients.

• Convenient Oral Suspension: Formulated as a homogeneous liquid suspension for flexible and precise dose adjustment.

Dosage & Administration

• Bilagran M Suspension should be administered strictly as directed by the treating physician.

• Dosage: The precise volume (ml) and daily frequency are determined by the doctor based on the patient’s age, body weight, and clinical condition.

• Directions:

  • SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE.

  • Keep the bottle tightly closed after each use.

  • Administer using a proper measuring cap or syringe for accurate dosing.

Possible Side Effects

Bilagran M Suspension is generally well tolerated, but minor side effects may occur in some individuals:

• Headache or mild dizziness

• Mild drowsiness or fatigue (infrequent)

• Dry mouth or thirst

• Mild upper respiratory symptoms or fever

Note: Rare mood or behavioral changes (such as irritability or restlessness) have been reported with montelukast therapy. Inform the treating doctor if any unusual or persistent symptoms occur.

Precautions & Interactions

• Medical Assessment: Inform the doctor about all known health conditions, especially liver or kidney impairment, prior to starting medication.

• Drug Interactions: Consult the physician regarding any ongoing medications, as certain drugs can affect the metabolism of bilastine or montelukast.
