Singulair alleviates recurrent wheezing with RSV bronchiolitis

Singulair (montelukast), a leukotriene receptor antagonist, can help prevent recurrent wheezing episodes after respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis, according to Korean scientists.

From earlier work, the researchers knew that airway levels of cysteinyl leukotriene correlated with eosinophil numbers in RSV bronchiolitis. The goal of the present study was to see if reduction of leuk...
