I've been dealing with allergies for pretty much my entire life, and they've always caused a runny nose and sneezing. I usually stick to montina l-cetirizine for it, and breathing's never been an issueuntil recently. For the past 34 weeks, I've noticed difficulty in breathing and a cough. I've been taking montina l to help with the breathing issues, but today I also had a runny nose and cough, so I took sinarest too. Now Im a bit worried. Is it okay to take montina l with sinarest at the same time?

View allIve been getting the flu shot from the same brand, Flu Quadri, every year without issues, but last year was different. After the shot, I felt my chest tighten up, had trouble breathing, and then woke up the next day with severe muscle pain all over. These symptoms quickly disappeared, but Im wondering if its safe to get the flu shot again this year. Should I only get it when Im feeling my best, or is it better to skip it altogether after what happened last time?

How can I taper off this combination tablet of Fexofenadine 120 mg and Montelukast 10 mg? Is it possible for me to cut the tablet into four pieces and take one piece each month, or do I need to buy lower doses of Fexofenadine and Montelukast and gradually decrease the mg each month? Anytime I try stopping for a couple of days without tapering, I end up with itching all over my body, which I've never experienced before. I was prescribed this for cold symptoms I get every morning, though I'm fine by the afternoon. They've run several tests, including X-rays, and I'm just trying to figure out the best way to stop taking these meds.
You can taper by taking the medication every alternate day or by taking fexofenadine 60 mg and montelukast 4 or 5 mg which are available separately
