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?

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.

View allI'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and sinusitis right now, causing me to have a cough, headache, and a runny nose. Should I go ahead and get the COVID vaccine while I'm feeling like this, or is it better to wait until these symptoms clear up? I'm worried that getting the vaccine might make my current situation worse. Can you provide some guidance?
Azeflo nasal spray 7ml to both the nostrils is advised to the patient for 5 days.Steam inhalation is also advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about this allergic problem I've been dealing with for the last two years. I keep getting short of breath, there's this whistling sound when I breathe, plus I've got a runny nose, a cough, and sometimes even a fever. Montek LC tablets do help, but as soon as I stop taking them, all these symptoms come back within a day or two. What should I do? Can you suggest anything that'll give me longer-lasting relief?

I'm experiencing this unusual burning sensation all over my body, but there's no fever. My torso feels dry and a bit allergic, though it's not really itchy. Oddly enough, gently rubbing my torso seems to help. Along with this, my nose has been drippy, and my stomach bloated after eating rice and egg with some red chili flakes for breakfast. This all began yesterday morning. I woke up with my face feeling hot, and then it spread to my hands and feet. It's been like this since then. I'm 47 years old and can't figure out what kicked off these symptoms. The night before it all started, I had two shots of rum and prawns for dinner, which is unusual for me because I don't drink often and rarely eat seafood, particularly prawnsthe last time was like a year or two ago. What's going on with my body?
That could be allergic reaction due to Prawns,stay hydrated and visit physician for appropriate management.
