Mastifen 1mg Tablet is a prescription medicine from East West Pharma that contains Ketotifen, an antihistamine with mast-cell stabilising action. It is mainly used for the long-term prevention of asthma attacks and to control allergic conditions such as allergic eye inflammation and seasonal allergies. Ketotifen works by calming mast cells so they release less histamine and leukotrienes, the chemicals that trigger airway tightening, itching, watery eyes and sneezing. Because it prevents symptoms rather than relieving an attack that has already started, it is taken regularly and its full benefit usually builds up over several weeks. Each strip holds 10 uncoated tablets.
