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 a constant cough for the past five months, and a specialist I saw said it's due to allergies. He gave me some medicine and told me it would go away eventually, but it hasn't seemed to improve. What could be going on? Is there something else I should be considering or asking about?

Im a bit concerned because every time I masturbate, I start experiencing continuous sneezing. I know I'm allergic to dust mites, but it seems unusual for this to happen only then. Could it be possible that masturbation is somehow triggering my allergic rhinitis?
There is no direct link between masturbation and allergic rhinitis triggered by dust mites. It is more likely that the act of masturbation is not directly causing your symptoms. It is possible that there may be other factors at play, such as the environment in which you are masturbating or other triggers that coincide with the activity. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine at a dose of 10mg once daily. Additionally, using a nasal corticosteroid spray like Fluticasone can help reduce nasal inflammation and sneezing. Make sure to also minimize exposure to dust mites in your environment by regularly cleaning and dusting your living space
