I have allergic rhinitis and would like to know whether or not it's safe to take Montelukast, even though I am taking Rifampicin now? Thanks. ## From what I can find, they can be used together, but the antibiotic Rifampicin can reduce the effectiveness of the Montelukast, by making it clear out of your body faster than normal. This means it may not help you as long or as much as it would, if you weren't taking the antibiotic, but it is not dangerous. You should check with your doctor or pharmacist to be certain, though.

I'm on my 5th month of taking those medicines. I dont actually had any pimple problem before especially on my face. But when I got confined due to pneumonia, my doctor advised me to take those medicines to cure the spot on my lungs. And since I take those medicines, I got these pimples all over my face. They're are so annoying. Like I even lost my self confidence because of them. Is there any ways to avoid them? After taking my mediation, will they be gone for real?
