Question

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a persistent cough and my asthma isn't getting any better. Do you think it's safe for me to take L hist mont along with amoxicillin 500? I'm worried about how these might interact.

If you have asthma and are experiencing a cough, it's important to ensure that your asthma is well-managed. **L-Hist-Mont** (a combination of antihistamine and montelukast) can help with allergic symptoms and asthma, while **amoxicillin** is used for bacterial infections. If your cough is due to an infection, the amoxicillin may be helpful, but its best to consult your doctor to confirm the cause and ensure the medications are appropriate for your condition.
