Is topraz 10mg a best sallution for astma and waht is the side effects ## Topraz (montelukast) is most commonly used to prevent wheezing, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, and coughing caused by asthma. It works by blocking the action of substances in the body that cause the symptoms of asthma. It honestly sounds like a good viable option for asthma, however, there's really no way of knowing how effective it will be until you actually try it. This is because these types of medication can and usually do effect each individual differently. Montelukast may cause the following side effects. Tell your doctor if any of these symptoms are severe or do not go away: headache dizziness heartburn stomach pain tiredness Some side effects can be serious. If you experience any of the followi...

Is it advisable to take Montclair LC for a long period of time? Are there any side effects? My wife has been taking the above tablets for the last year. ## Has her doctor prescribed them for her? Many people do take such tablets long-term to help control allergy and asthma issues. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and headache. Have they been causing her any problems? ## Not certain. Something is continuing to cause excess mucus. Yes this was prescribed by a doctor short term and then long term montelukast. Just wondering if Zyrtec, montelukast, and other asthma/allergy meds are actually causing rather than decreasing mucus, this coughing and gagging

I am taking Monticope and want to know if it will help me? I have taken only one tablet so far. ## Monticope contains Montelukast and Levocetirizine, it is used to allergies. Learn more Montelukast details here. Learn more Levocetirizine details here. That said, it's not likely to help much with chicken pox, since that's not an allergic reaction, but a virus. If you want to relieve the associated itching, a topical cream or ointment that can help would most likely give you much more relief. How long have you had it? ## Its my 6th day of chicken pox. so what should i do for my disease to try some other medicine or something else. Please Help Me. ## I had chicken pox a year ago and have never let my skin heal. I scratch or dig with my nails all the time. I even do it when I am sle...

i use monticope when the cold came regularly .is ther any problem for using this tablet as regular ## Monticope contains Montelukast and Levocetirizine. These are both used to treat the symptoms of colds and allergies. I would suggest only using it when needed, rather than making it a regular daily regime, if thats what you mean? Side effects of Montelukast include gastrointestinal disturbances, hypersensitivity reactions, sleep disorders and increased bleeding tendency, aside from many other generic adverse reactions. Levocetirizine is called a non-sedating antihistamine as it does not enter the brain in significant amounts, and is therefore unlikely to cause drowsiness. However, some people may experience some slight sleepiness, headache, mouth dryness, lightheadedness, vision problem...

Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, blurred vision and dry mouth.

Is there any side effects of taking these tablets regularly? ## Okay, allergies would not cause a cold, they are completely different things, since a cold is caused by a type of virus and has nothing to do with allergies, though they may cause some similar symptoms, such as runny nose and nasal congestion. That said, Monticope contains Montelukast and Levocetirizine, they are most commonly used to treat allergy symptoms. And all medications carry the risk of side effects, by taking this, you may experience: nausea, dizziness and dry mouth.

NDC code: 00143-9649 The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dry mouth, constipation, dizziness, and headache. Was this medication prescribed for you?

I took a test at the court the other day that came out positive for methamphetamines. I've never touched it in my life. I do take vitamin D, montelukast, atenolol, hydrochlorothiazide, losartan potassium, pravastatin sodium, cyclobenzaprine, and ranitine.

Please let me know whether this tablet can contnue to be taken for 3 months? ## Any medication, including L-MONTUS (montelukast) should only be taken for the duration that it was prescribed for. Depending on the reasoning behind taking this medication, it can be used to treat seasonal allergies, which may require you to take it for the duration of the allergy symptoms. However, the guidelines for taking this medication note that you should not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. There really is no precise answer to taking it for a period of 3 months, because this duration is determined by your doctor. I hope this info helps to answer your question! ## Doctor has advised to take L Montus for 6 months can i take it for 6 months. if not plz. give r...
