I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM ALLERGY ON MY FACE FOR WHICH I HAVE BEEN GIVEN MOTRE-L TABLETS. I HAVE ALREADY DONE A COURSE OF 10 DAYS AND STILL NO RESPONSE IS VISIBLE AND NOW MY DOCTOR HAS GIVEN ME IT FOR NEXT TEN DAYS. OTHER THAN THIS I WAS RECOMMENDED BELAR-FORTE FOR 2 DAYS . IT HELPED TO A CERTAIN EXTENT BUT MY ALLERGY REAPPEARED AFTER THAT.PLEASE HELP ## Hi, Swati! Do you have any idea what's causing the allergy? Figuring that out and eliminating the culprit would be the best solution. It must be something that you became exposed to around the time of the first reaction and keep being exposed to. Have you been eating or drinking anything new? Are you using a new soap or hygiene product?

Sir, I have been taking Montelukast Sodium and levoctrizine dihydro chloride since few months as I feel relieved from allergy which used to cause cold and caugh.Although I feel fine now and want to quit this tablet now .Please suggest me on how to quit .I feel drowsiness which is having negative effect on my work .Please help me . ## This medication is not habit forming, so you don't need to taper off of it, or anything. However, stopping abruptly may cause some rebound sinus congestion, as reported by the U.S. FDA, but that should go away within a week, or so. Drowsiness can be a normal side effect of antihistamines, sometimes it gets so severe you can't stay awake to do anything. Are you on any other medications?

Does Montelukast Levocetirizine Zykast cause mouth sores and night sweats? I'm very curious about it. ## Ive been taking the generic of xyzal for about 20 days +/-. Coincidental to this or not I also have developed a canker sore in my mouth- never had before and the inside of my cheeks are temp sensitive. Healing some maybe but in am worse & I take nightly. I thought it was something else but this is the only new med in my life so I was googling around to see if anyone else has had a similar problem- ? No night sweats but this raw inside cheek;sores is not good.

Kindly suggest ## Hi, Viju! Sorry about the problems that you're having. Antihistamines can cause dryness of your mouth, throat and nose, so that could be what's causing the coughing.

Montelukast + Levocetirizine tablets have been prescribed for white patches and itching on my skin. Kindly advise me on whether it is ok to follow through with this treatment? ## They can be taken together to treat allergic reactions. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth. The concern, however, is the white patches, since that might not be indicative of an allergic reaction. Can you post back and clarify what they look like? When did you start experiencing them? There are various other issues that might cause such symptoms, including yeast infections, and dermatitis.

is this medicine a steroid or not? If yes then what are its immediate side effects and long term side effects? ## Based on my research, neither medication found in MONTAIR-LC are depicted as steroids. Montelukast is reportedly in a class of medications called leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs). It works by blocking the action of substances in the body that cause the symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis. Levocetirizine is in a class of medications called antihistamines. These types of medications work by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It's also important to note that all medications carry the risk of side effects. So by taking this, you should understand that there are risks involved, even if you don't end up exp...
