Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to provide a compounded formulation of Montelukast 3 mg/Loratadine 2 mg Capsules for Nasal Irrigation/Nebulizer. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of conditions, including Allergic Rhinitis, Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Bronchitis, and Sinusitis.

The active ingredients in this formulation, Montelukast and Loratadine, work synergistically to alleviate symptoms. Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, helps to reduce inflammation in the airways. Loratadine, an antihistamine, works to mitigate the body’s allergic response. Together, these two medications can provide significant relief from the symptoms associated with the aforementioned conditions.

These solid dosage forms are prepared by compounding, where the contents of 1 capsule are intended to be emptied and mixed with saline solution for irrigation or nebulization as directed. This allows for targeted administration of the compounded medication. For nasal irrigation, patients should empty the contents of one (1) capsule into a standard volume (8oz) of NeilMed™ Sinus Rinse and irrigate 1/2 bottle per nostril twice daily.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its usage, our team of compounding pharmacists at Bayview Pharmacy is available to assist. We are committed to providing comprehensive information and guidance to ensure the safe and appropriate use of our compounded medications.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Montelukast 3 mg/Loratadine 2 mg Capsules are a compounded medication specifically designed for targeted treatment of various respiratory conditions such as Allergic Rhinitis, Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Bronchitis, and Sinusitis. This unique formulation combines the anti-inflammatory properties of Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, and the antihistamine effects of Loratadine. Together, these two active ingredients work synergistically to block the actions of leukotrienes and histamine, substances in the body that trigger inflammation and allergic symptoms respectively.

These capsules are intended for use in nasal irrigation or nebulization, not for oral consumption. The contents of each capsule should be emptied and mixed with a saline solution, then used as directed for nasal irrigation or nebulization. This method allows for a targeted administration of the medication, delivering the therapeutic effects directly to the affected respiratory tract. The use of the NeilMed™ Sinus Rinse is recommended for nasal irrigation.

The combination of Montelukast and Loratadine in this compounded formulation aims to effectively reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms associated with the aforementioned respiratory conditions. It is crucial to use this medication as directed and not to ingest it. If you have any questions or need further clarification on how to use this formulation, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
