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'm dealing with allergic rhinitis for quite a while now, since 2006 actually, and allercet tablets have been my go-to, though sometimes I try flomist nasal spray. But honestly, it doesn't always work for me. I'm worried about using allercet long-term though could there be side effects? I keep waking up sneezing, with a runny nose and my eyes all itchy and red. Also, every time I take allercet, I feel really drowsy and sleepy. Is there an alternative treatment or maybe even a surgery option? I just want to have a normal day without these symptoms bothering me. Could you provide some guidance?
