Singulair, Clairton and Zyrtech

[Guest guest]

Singulair is use for both asthma and allergies. It inhibits

leukotrienes. Leukotrienes are like histamines but 800 time more

irritating to the mucus membranes in the airway. The underlying

cause of asthma is inflammation. Even if you're not allergic to

common allergens, stress and emotions can cause leukotrienes and

histamines to release into the air way. That is how Singulair helps

to prevent runny stuffy noses and runny stuff airways.

Clairton is the weakness antihistamine on the market. Zyrtec is much

stronger and is now an over the counter medication.
