No, the montelukast in Astmodil is not a steroid. Montelukast is an antileukotriene drug that works by blocking leukotriene receptors. Leukotrienes are chemicals in the body that can cause inflammation, bronchospasm, and allergic symptoms.
Montelukast is often used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis (hay fever). It helps reduce asthma and allergy symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, nasal congestion, sneezing and nasal itching.
Steroids, also known as corticosteroids, are another group of drugs that act as anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressants. Examples of steroids used to treat asthma include prednisone, budesonide, and fluticasone.
