Question

I've been dealing with this slight mucus at the back of my throat for a few months, but I don't usually cough because of it. However, every time I go swimming, I end up sneezing a lot and my nose gets really runny. I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about or if it's just a normal reaction.

Question

I'm dealing with chronic urticaria and have tried different antihistamines like Cetirizine, Fexofenadine, Desloratadine, and Levocetirizine, but they all cause me severe heartburn and acid reflux. I noticed that when I take Monlevo, which combines Montelukast Sodium and Levocetirizine Hydrochloride, I don't experience these side effects. Why do you think that is? Is there something about this combination that prevents the usual issues? What should I consider or discuss with my doctor about this?

Question

I've been taking Allegra daily, but when I try to stop suddenly, I get really bad itching. How should I taper off the dosage to avoid this withdrawal effect? Should I switch to taking it once a week or maybe every other week? How long should I continue this process?

Question

I'm dealing with allergies pretty badly because of dust and strong perfume smells. It gets to the point where I'll sneeze non-stop for like 10 to 15 minutes, often more than 15 times. I've been using MONTEMAC FX or MONTEMAC L to help with it and while they do work, the side effects leave me feeling super sleepy and just not myself the next day. I've also found out that I can't take levocetirizine and anything with FX. Can you recommend something else that won't make me feel drowsy?
