Leukotriene Receptor Antagonist
Antag Leukotriene

Presentation

While they have similar mechanisms of action, these two agents are structurally distinct, and the liver injury they cause does not appear to be similar in pattern of presentation or outcome. [livertox.nih.gov]

For administration by inhalation, the compounds of the present invention are delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or nebulisers. [google.com]

We suggest that preceding administration of pranlukast aggravates clinical presentations of CSS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Entire Body System

  • Inflammation

    Main outcome measures were asthma symptoms, pulmonary function, and airway inflammation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Type 2 T helper cells produce granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukins (IL), including IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-13, IL-25, IL-31, and IL-33, which are responsible for chronic eosinophilic inflammation, the type of inflammation [emjreviews.com]

  • Swelling

    These leukotriene-mediated effects cause bronchoconstriction or narrowing of the airways, inflammation, swelling and mucous secretion. [inhousepharmacy.vu]

    These substances cause airway constriction (a narrowing of the airways), increased mucus production, swelling and inflammation in the lungs. This causes symptoms such as wheezing, cough, post nasal drip and shortness of breath. [drugs.com]

    As a result, the airways swell and fill with mucus, reducing air flow. [drugs.nmihi.com]

  • Falling

    We further noted a correlation of total IgE with maximum percent fall in FEV1 (%) in asthmatic patients, as well as a reverse correlation with improvement of maximum percent fall in FEV1 (%) after exercise challenge tests. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    The maximum percentage fall in FEV1 following a single dose of montelukast was 15.33% after 2 h, and 12.92% after 24 h, thus comparing favourably to the 2 h fall of 20% and a 24 h fall of 17.25% after placebo administration. [degruyter.com]

  • Asymptomatic

    The patient's asthma improved, and he remained asymptomatic; but routine study evaluations 9 to 12 months into therapy showed microhematuria, proteinuria, glucosuria, anemia, and renal insufficiency. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Background: In registration trials, zafirlukast, an asthma medication, caused asymptomatic elevated aminotransferase levels in up to 5% of participants. Until now, however, no cases of severe hepatitis attributed to zafirlukast have been reported. [annals.org]

  • Turkish

    Suicide Behaviour After Montelukast Usage: A Case Report Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease. 2014; 4 (8): 212-214 33. Bygdell M, Brunlöf G, Wallerstedt SM, Kindblom JM. [ijp.tums.pub]

Respiratoric

  • Rhinitis

    In allergic rhinitis, CysLTs are released from the nasal mucosa after allergen exposure and precipitate the symptoms of allergic rhinitis. [livertox.nih.gov]

    Leukotriene receptor antagonists have recently become available for asthma treatment, but little is known of their effects on allergic rhinitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Sputum

    Further, in the variables such as use frequency of beta2 stimulants, serum ECP levels, ECP levels induced sputum, and FEV1.0, an almost comparable level of improvement to the fluticasone group was demonstrated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Increased levels of leukotrienes are detectable in peripheral blood, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, sputum, and urine of patients with asthma, even when stable. 14-16 In BAL fluid and urine there is, however, a considerable overlap between asthmatic [thorax.bmj.com]

Skin

  • Urticaria

    urticaria [urticaria without any possible secondary causes (ie, food additive or ASA and other NSAID hypersensitivity, or ASST)]. [dovepress.com]

    Leukotriene antagonists have been tried in several types of urticaria: chronic ordinary urticaria urticaria-angioedema induced by aspirin and by other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs cold urticaria urticaria related to food additives steroid - dependent [dermnetnz.org]

  • Dermatitis

    Abstract Leukotriene receptor antagonists are recommended for the treatment of asthma, and have proved anecdotally successful even in atopic dermatitis. Standard treatments of atopic dermatitis are often unsatisfactory. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Atopic dermatitis is associated with an increased number of activated mast cells that release leukotrienes. [dermnetnz.org]

    Effectiveness of montelukast in the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Mymensingh Med J. 2006;15(1):85–88. 4. Yanase DJ, David-Bajar K. The leukotriene antagonist montelukast as a therapeutic agent for atopic dermatitis. [aafp.org]

    Cysteinyl-LTs and CysLTRs have been implicated in the pathophysiology of other inflammatory conditions including cancer, atopic dermatitis, idiopathic chronic urticaria, and cardiovascular diseases. [eurekaselect.com]

  • Chronic Urticaria

    In the past, chronic urticaria was divided into two types, i.e., chronic autoimmune urticaria and chronic idiopathic urticaria [ 3 ]. [aacijournal.biomedcentral.com]

    Evidence for the effectiveness of zafirlukast and the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, zileuton, in chronic urticaria is mainly anecdotal. [dovepress.com]

    Chronic urticaria/angioedema has traditionally been defined as daily or almost daily symptoms for more than 6 weeks. [content.iospress.com]

  • Angioedema

    Chronic urticaria/angioedema has traditionally been defined as daily or almost daily symptoms for more than 6 weeks. [content.iospress.com]

    No evidence exists for other physical urticarias, including cholinergic, solar and aquagenic urticarias, vibratory angioedema, and exercise-induced anaphylaxis. [dovepress.com]

    Leukotriene antagonists have been tried in several types of urticaria: chronic ordinary urticaria urticaria-angioedema induced by aspirin and by other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs cold urticaria urticaria related to food additives steroid - dependent [dermnetnz.org]

  • Skin Lesion

    All types and subtypes of urticaria share a common distinctive skin reaction pattern, i.e., the development of urticarial skin lesions and/or angioedema. [content.iospress.com]

Psychiatrical

  • Suggestibility

    However, anti-inflammatory activity of LTRAs independent of CysLT 1 antagonism was recently suggested. [jimmunol.org]

    We suggest that preceding administration of pranlukast aggravates clinical presentations of CSS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Urogenital

  • Hematuria

    She presented fever up to 38°C with microscopic hematuria and proteinuria, serum creatinine level of 0.7 mg/dl, and C-reactive protein of 11 mg/dl. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Therefore, it has been suggested that antileukotrienes may be beneficial in the treatment of this disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Although both treatments were proven to be effective, significant individual variation was evident. [aacijournal.biomedcentral.com]
