Background: Cough variant asthma (CVA) is classified as a distinct form of asthma. As the primary or only symptom, cough is the leading cause for the most prevalent chronic cough among kids. The American College of Clinical Pharmacy, British Thoracic Society, and Chinese guidelines established for diagnosing and treating chronic cough in kids recommend inhaled corticosteroids, combined with leukotriene receptor antagonists when necessary.
Methods: We will conduct a comprehensive search in major databases using keywords to find studies related to the analysis of montelukast sodium and budesonide for treating CVA in kids. Two reviewers will independently assess the quality of the selected research articles and perform data extraction. Next, we will use the RevMan software (version: 5.3) to conduct the statistical analysis of the present study.
Results: This study will assess the efficacy and safeness of using montelukast sodium and budesonide to treat kids with CVA by pooling the results of individual studies.
Conclusion: Our findings will provide vigorous evidence to judge whether montelukast sodium and budesonide therapy is an efficient form of therapy for CVA patients.
Ethics And Dissemination: Ethics approval is not needed for the present meta-analysis.

This study analysed the influence of montelukast (MON), a cysteinyl leukotriene receptor antagonist, and nifedipine, an L-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channel blocker, on the contractility of the porcine uterine smooth muscle. Myometrial strips were collected from the sexually immature (n=8), cyclic (12-14 days of the oestrous cycle; n=8) and pregnant (27-28 days of pregnancy; n=8) gilts and stimulated with a) MON or nifedipine at concentrations of 10-8-10-4 M and b) increasing concentrations of nifedipine after previous administration of MON at a concentration of 10-4 M. The changes in the tension, amplitude and frequency of contractions were determined with the Hugo Sachs Elektronik equipment for measuring isometric contractions.

Background: Long-acting beta2-agonists (LABA) in combination with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are commonly used to treat asthma, however, some children lack response to the addition of LABA. This might be partially due to the presence of the Arg16Gly polymorphism, encoded by rs1042713 G>A in the ADRB2 gene. Carrying the A allele (Arg16) at this variant has been associated with an increased risk of exacerbations despite LABA treatment.

Liver fibrosis is a significant health complication with the potential to result in serious mortality and morbidity. However, there is no standard treatment due to its complex pathogenesis. The drug montelukast reversibly and selectively antagonizes the cysteinyl-leukotrienes-1 receptor and reduces inflammation; thus, it is used in the treatment of asthma.

Seralutinib, an inhaled, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), was evaluated for its potential as a perpetrator or victim of a metabolic and transporter-based drug-drug interactions in 2 phase 1 studies. In study 1, 24 participants received a cocktail of probe substrates: caffeine (CYP1A2), montelukast (CYP2C8), flurbiprofen (CYP2C9), midazolam (CYP3A), and pravastatin (OATP1B1/1B3), plus digoxin (P-gp) with or without seralutinib. In study 2, 19 participants received seralutinib with/without itraconazole, a strong CYP3A inhibitor, or fosaprepitant, a weak CYP3A inhibitor.

Introduction: Intranasal mometasone and oral montelukast have been found to be effective for adenoid hypertrophy in children. We aimed to compare the efficacy of combination therapy of mometasone and montelukast versus mometasone alone for adenoid hypertrophy in children.
Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, we systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, and ClinicalTrials.
