I'm dealing with allergic asthma and sinus issues since I was a kid. I usually take anti-allergy meds like Montair LC, Monlevo, and Motex LC. Right now, I've been taking just one Motair LC tablet per day. Could you guide me on the proper treatment or tell me if this medication is enough? Also, do you have any other suggestions or recommendations for managing this condition?

I'm really struggling with a heavy cough, and I'm dealing with allergy symptoms and general weakness too. On top of that, I have swelling in my joints and itchy palms. It's been so bad that I've had to take a Levocetirizine capsule every day to manage it. Without it, I just can't handle the cough at all. Is there anything else I can do or try to make this better?
