孟鲁司特（5 μM；1 小时）可防止对乙酰氨基酚 (APAP) 引起的细胞损伤 [1]。孟鲁司特 (0.01-10 μM) 给药 30 分钟可抑制 5-oxo-ETE 产生的细胞迁移，并改变纤溶酶-纤溶酶原系统的激活 [3]。 10 μM 孟鲁司特持续 18 小时会改变 MMP-9 活性 [3]。

孟鲁司特（3 mg/kg；口服）可保护小鼠免受 APAP 引起的肝毒性 [1]。当通过微渗透泵给药时，孟鲁司特 (1 mg/kg) 通过 CysLT1 受体抑制半胱氨酰白三烯 (LT) 的产生，并减轻 OVA 治疗小鼠气道重塑的改变。 C4、D4和E4的角色[2]。使用微渗透泵给予 1 mg/kg 孟鲁司特，可以降低用 OVA 治疗的小鼠 BAL 液中 IL-4 和 IL-13 水平的升高 [2]。

孟鲁司特和MK-0591降低了5-氧代-ETE促进的嗜酸性粒细胞迁移，而LTD（4）未能诱导嗜酸性粒细胞核迁移。然而，LTD（4）显著提高了用次优浓度的5-氧代-ETE获得的迁移速率，并部分逆转了用MK-0591获得的抑制作用。孟鲁司特显著降低了用5-氧代-ETE获得的嗜酸性粒细胞将纤溶酶原活化为纤溶酶的最大速率。5-Oxo-ETE增加了表达尿激酶纤溶酶原激活物受体的嗜酸性粒细胞的数量，并刺激了MMP-9的分泌。孟鲁司特，但MK-0591和LTD（4）均未降低尿激酶纤溶酶原激活剂受体的表达和MMP-9的分泌，并增加尿激酶纤溶酶原活化剂的总细胞活性和纤溶酶原激活物抑制剂2mRNA的表达[3]。

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Montelukast is observed to be rapidly absorbed after oral administration. The oral bioavailability of this drug is 64%. Furthermore, it appears that normal morning meals or high-fat snacks in the evening do not affect the absorption of montelukast. Montelukast and its metabolites are reported to be excreted almost entirely via bile and feces. The mean steady-state volume of distribution of montelukast is 8 to 11 liters. The mean plasma clearance of montelukast observed in healthy adults is 45 mL/min. Montelukast is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Peak plasma concentrations are reached within 3–4 hours, 2–2.5 hours, or 2 hours after oral administration of a single 10 mg film-coated tablet (adult), 5 mg chewable tablet (adult), or 4 mg chewable tablet (children aged 2–5 years) on an empty stomach. When taking 4 mg of oral granules in the morning, the intake of a high-fat meal had no effect on the AUC of montelukast; however, the time to peak concentration was prolonged from 2.3 hours to 6.4 hours, and the peak concentration decreased by 35%. Montelukast is rapidly absorbed. The mean oral bioavailability of the 10 mg tablets is 64%. A standard morning meal does not affect its bioavailability. For the 5 mg chewable tablets: the mean oral bioavailability on an empty stomach is 73%, while it is 63% when taken with a standard morning meal. In fasting young adults, after 7 consecutive days of oral administration of 10 mg montelukast, the mean peak plasma concentration was 541 ng/mL on day 1 and 602.8 ng/mL on day 7. The trough concentration remained relatively stable from day 3 to day 7, ranging from 18 to 24 ng/mL. In this study, the steady-state area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) was approximately 14-15% higher than that after a single dose, and was reached within 2 days. Montelukast's pharmacokinetics are nearly linear at doses up to 50 mg. For more complete data on absorption, distribution, and excretion of montelukast (15 items total), please visit the HSDB record page. Metabolism/Metabolites: Montelukast has been identified as actively metabolized, typically by cytochrome P450 3A4, 2C8, and 2C9 isoenzymes. In particular, the CYP2C8 enzyme appears to play a significant role in drug metabolism. However, at therapeutic doses, plasma concentrations of montelukast metabolites are undetectable in both adult and pediatric patients at steady state. Biotransformation occurs primarily in the liver, involving cytochrome P450 3A4 and 2C9. The metabolic pathway of montelukast is not fully understood, but the drug is extensively metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and/or liver and excreted via bile. Multiple metabolic pathways have been identified, including acylglucuronidation and oxidation catalyzed by various cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzymes. In vitro studies have shown that the microsomal P-450 isoenzyme CYP3A4 is the major enzyme in the formation of the 21-hydroxy metabolite (M5) and the sulfoxide metabolite (M2), while CYP2C9 is the major isoenzyme in the formation of the 36-hydroxy metabolite (M6). Other identified metabolites include acylglucuronide (M1) and 25-hydroxy (phenolic, M3) analogues. Following oral administration of 54.8 mg of radiolabeled montelukast, drug metabolites account for less than 2% of circulating radioactivity. In radiolabeling studies, montelukast metabolites identified in plasma include 21-hydroxy (benzyl acid diastereomers, M5a and M5b) metabolites and 36-hydroxy (methanol diastereomers, M6a and M6b) metabolites. Following oral administration of therapeutic doses of montelukast, steady-state plasma metabolite concentrations in both adults and children were below the limit of detection. Known metabolites of montelukast include montelukast sulfoxide, montelukast 1,2-diol, 21-hydroxymontelukast, and 21(S)-hydroxymontelukast. Biological half-life: Studies have shown that the mean plasma half-life of montelukast in healthy young adults is 2.7 to 5.5 hours. The mean plasma elimination half-life of montelukast in adults aged 19–48 years is 2.7–5.5 hours, with a mean plasma clearance of 45 mL/min. The plasma elimination half-life in children aged 6–14 years is 3.4–4.2 hours. Limited data suggest a slightly prolonged plasma elimination half-life of montelukast in older adults and patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment, but no dose adjustment is necessary. According to reports, the plasma elimination half-life for elderly people aged 65-73 and patients with mild to moderate liver dysfunction is 6.6 hours and 7.4 hours, respectively.

Interactions
Concomitant use of phenobarbital significantly reduced the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of montelukast (approximately 40%) and induced hepatic metabolism… This study aimed to assess whether clinically used dose levels of montelukast interfered with the anticoagulant effect of warfarin. In a two-period, double-blind, randomized crossover study, 12 healthy male subjects received a single oral dose of 30 mg warfarin on day 7 of a 12-day montelukast treatment regimen, or montelukast 10 mg orally daily, or placebo. Montelukast had no significant effect on the AUC and peak plasma concentration of either R- or S-warfarin. However, in the presence of montelukast, a slight but statistically significant reduction in the time to peak concentration of both enantiomers of warfarin and the elimination half-life of the less potent R-warfarin was observed. These changes were considered clinically insignificant. Montelukast had no significant effect on the anticoagulant effect of warfarin, as assessed by the international normalized ratio of prothrombin time (INR) (AUC 0-144 and maximum INR). These results suggest that clinically significant drug interactions are unlikely in patients requiring concomitant administration of these two medications.
The effect of the cysteyl leukotriene receptor antagonist montelukast (MK-0476) on single-dose theophylline plasma concentrations was investigated in three independent clinical trials. The evaluable doses of montelukast were 10 mg once daily (clinical dose), 200 mg once daily, and 600 mg three times daily (200 mg each time). At the clinical dose, montelukast did not produce a clinically significant change in single-dose theophylline plasma concentrations. The geometric mean ratios of the area under the theophylline plasma concentration-time curve (AUC_0-∞) (0.92) and the geometric mean ratios of the maximum plasma concentration (C_max) (1.04) were both within the pre-specified, generally accepted bioequivalence ranges (0.80 and 1.25). Montelukast at a dose of 200 mg/day (oral and intravenous) reduced theophylline's C_max by 12% and 10%, AUC_0-∞ by 43% and 44%, and elimination half-life by 44% and 39%, respectively; at a dose of 600 mg/day, montelukast reduced theophylline's C_max by 25%, AUC_0-∞ by 66%, and elimination half-life by 63%. These results indicate that clinical doses of montelukast do not have a clinically significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of theophylline, but when the dose is increased 20 to 60 times, montelukast significantly reduces theophylline pharmacokinetic parameters, suggesting a clear dose-dependent effect. A 45-year-old obese woman was admitted with elevated transaminase levels and prolonged prothrombin time, indicating liver atrophy; treatment failure led to her death. Autoimmune diseases, acetaminophen use, alcohol poisoning, and Wilson's disease have been ruled out. She had been taking the leukotriene receptor antagonist (montelukast) for 5 years prior to this visit due to chronic asthma; a week before the onset of illness, she had taken two dietary supplements to control her weight, one of which contained Garcinia Cambogia, which may be a contributing factor to two recent cases of hepatitis in the United States; in addition, both formulations contained citrus derivatives that interfere with cytochrome function. The authors hypothesize a causal relationship between the intake of the supplements and the fatal hepatitis, and propose a synergistic effect between the supplements and montelukast, which itself has been well-studied as a hepatotoxic drug. Although this claim is speculative, researchers believe that this warning may help raise awareness of the current uncontrolled increase in food additives. This case describes an asthmatic patient who developed severe obstructive symptoms and progressive heart failure after two consecutive exposures to montelukast. Due to a significantly elevated blood eosinophil count, diffuse infiltrates on chest X-ray, and signs of myocarditis, the patient was suspected of having Chaucer-Schwarz syndrome (CSS). The condition was confirmed by open-chest lung biopsy. Symptoms rapidly improved after administration of high-dose methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide immunosuppressants. This case is noteworthy because its progression strongly suggests a direct causative role for montelukast in the development of CSS. However, its pathophysiological mechanism remains unclear.

Drug Warnings

Headache is the most common adverse reaction to montelukast, occurring in 18-19% of children aged 6 years and older, adolescents, and adults. Headache has been reported in at least 2% of asthmatic children aged 2-8 years receiving montelukast; and in at least 1% (and at a higher rate than in the placebo group) of asthmatic adults and adolescents aged 15 years and older receiving montelukast. In adults and adolescents aged 15 years and older with perennial allergic rhinitis treated with montelukast, sinus headache occurred in at least 1% of patients, with a higher incidence than in the placebo group. In clinical studies, approximately 1.8–1.9% of patients aged 15 years and older experienced dizziness or weakness/fatigue after treatment with this drug. Additionally, reports indicate that this drug may cause abnormal dreams, hallucinations, agitation (including aggressive behavior), paresthesia/hypopnea, somnolence, insomnia, irritability, or restlessness. Reports of seizures are very rare. In patients aged 15 years and older treated with montelukast, abdominal pain occurred in 2.9% of cases. In this age group, 2.1%, 1.5%, and 1.7% reported dyspepsia, infectious gastroenteritis, and toothache, respectively. In children aged 6–14 years treated with montelukast, at least 2% reported diarrhea or nausea. In children aged 2–5 years with asthma, at least 2% reported abdominal pain, diarrhea, and gastroenteritis, with an incidence higher than in the placebo group. In children aged 6–8 years with asthma, at least 2% reported gastroenteritis, with an incidence higher than in the placebo group. Post-marketing surveillance data showed that patients treated with montelukast may also experience adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, indigestion, pancreatitis (rare), and diarrhea. In clinical studies, patients treated with montelukast experienced one or more elevated liver function test results. In clinical studies, 2.1% and 1.6% of asthma patients aged 15 years and older treated with montelukast, respectively, experienced elevated serum ALT (SGPT) or AST (SGOT) concentrations. In clinical studies, at least 1% of adults and adolescents aged 15 years and older with perennial allergic rhinitis treated with montelukast experienced elevated ALT, with an incidence higher than in the placebo group. Changes in laboratory indicators returned to normal despite continued montelukast treatment, or were not directly caused by the drug. Elevated serum transaminase (TAM) levels have been reported in children aged 2–14 years taking montelukast, but the incidence was similar to that in children taking a placebo. Post-marketing experience shows that montelukast rarely causes hepatic eosinophilic infiltration. Post-marketing experience also shows that montelukast rarely causes hepatocellular injury, cholestatic hepatitis, or mixed hepatic injury. These patients mostly had confounding factors, such as concurrent use of other medications or alcohol consumption, or the presence of other diseases (e.g., other types of hepatitis). The incidence of rash in adults and adolescents aged 15 years and older taking montelukast was 1.6%. At least 2% of children aged 2–5 years taking the drug reported rashes, eczema, dermatitis, or urticaria. At least 2% of children aged 6–8 years with asthma treated with montelukast developed atopic dermatitis, varicella, and skin infections, with a higher incidence than in children receiving a placebo. Patients treated with montelukast have reported hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic shock, angioedema, pruritus, urticaria, and, rarely, eosinophilic infiltration of the liver.

Pharmacodynamics
Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist with significant affinity and selectivity for cysteyl leukotriene receptor type 1, superior to many other important airway receptors such as prostaglandin receptors, cholinergic receptors, or β-adrenergic receptors. Therefore, even at doses as low as 5 mg, this drug can significantly block LTD4 leukotriene-mediated bronchoconstriction. Furthermore, a placebo-controlled crossover study (n=12) showed that montelukast inhibited early and late bronchoconstriction induced by antigen stimulation by 75% and 57%, respectively. Of particular note is the documented bronchodilation effect that can occur within 2 hours after oral administration of montelukast. This effect can also be additive with the bronchodilatory effect produced by the concurrent use of β-receptor agonists. However, clinical studies in adults aged 15 years and older have shown that daily administration of montelukast exceeding 10 mg does not provide additional clinical benefit. Furthermore, in clinical trials involving adults and children aged 6 to 14 years with asthma, studies have found that, during double-blind treatment, montelukast reduced the median peripheral blood eosinophil count by approximately 13% to 15% compared to placebo. Simultaneously, in patients aged 15 years and older with seasonal allergic rhinitis, montelukast also reduced the median peripheral blood eosinophil count by 13% compared to placebo.
