I've been taking Montek LC tablets every day for the past 5-6 years. I'm starting to wonder if there might be any long-term side effects from using these. Could it be harmful?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Taking Montelukast (Montek LC) for long periods can sometimes lead to mild side effects like headaches, dizziness, or gastrointestinal issues. In rare cases, prolonged use may cause mood changes or behavioral effects, so it's important to discuss ongoing use with your doctor to ensure it's still the best option for you.

I've been dealing with really frequent colds and sneezing fits, like, a couple of times a week, and it usually sticks around for a day or two. I'm also managing asthma with a beclate inhaler. Any idea on how I can get this under control?
Hello Kiran, your symptoms of frequent cold and sneezing may indicate allergic rhinitis, which is often associated with asthma. I recommend consulting your doctor to evaluate triggers and consider adding an antihistamine or nasal spray to your treatment plan. Keeping your asthma well-controlled is also essential.

I'm having a tough time with my breathing because of something that's leaching into my throat, nose, and eyes, but especially my throat. It's causing me to cough really badly, sometimes to the point where I vomit. I even have a weird voice when I breathe. I've seen a few doctors, and they say it's allergies, but they haven't done any tests or analyses. The meds help a bit, but once I stop, the same problem comes back, or even gets worse. They've given me Motemac FX tablets, Furamist nasal spray, and some syrup, but nothing seems to be fixing the root cause. I'm confused about which doctor I should see to finally get to the bottom of this. Should I be asking for specific tests or analyses to find out exactly what's wrong with me? Any advice here?
Patient is advised Ige test,X-ray paranasal sinus ,esr and C-reactive protein tests.Also Azeflo nasal spray 7ml in both the nostrils is advised to the patient.
