I'm dealing with some really bad basal allergies and a persistent cough. I took Leon 500 mg and Lukotas HD at night, but then I just couldn't sleep the whole night and ended up with a terrible headache the next day. Even opening my eyes was painful. How can I avoid these side effects but still tackle the allergies and cough?

You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection in this season. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines and decongestant nasal drops for few days for faster recovery

I've been on Montek LC for about a month to manage my runny nose and allergies. My doctor suggested that I gradually reduce my dosage before stopping completely. Can you give me some guidance on how to taper off Montek LC safely?

Typically, you can gradually reduce the dose over a period of time to minimize any potential withdrawal symptoms or recurrence of symptoms. For example, if you were taking one tablet daily, you may reduce it to one tablet every other day for a week, then one tablet every two days for another week, and so on until you can safely stop taking the medication. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance and not to abruptly stop Montek LC to avoid any adverse effects. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms during the tapering process, be sure to consult your doctor for further advice.

I've been dealing with this heavy sinus issue for about 6 months now, and it's driving me crazy. I notice there's not much mucus, but I sneeze a lot, even when I try using steam. Whenever I take Montek LC, it seems to help, but if I skip even one day, my eyes feel really heavy and my nose starts running like crazy. It feels like the air is somehow getting into my nose and causing all this trouble. My doctor suggested I might need to take Montek LC forever or use an inhaler to clear the mucus. I'm really hoping for a more permanent solution. What do you think I should do?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.

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.

take one course of antibiotic tablet amoxyclav for 5 days,twice a day
