Brief Answer: Montek LC Detailed Answer: Hello XXXX, I have read your query. It seems like you get frequent running nose and sneezing. This could be allergic or seasonal rhinitis. For my patients with such complaints, I suggest a short course of tablet Montek LC for 10days to be taken at bed time, after food. This would suffice and is better than cetrizine. Along with this, it is very important to do steam inhalation with karvol plus nasocaps thrice daily to clear the nasal blockade. Consume warm water and warm food until the time you feel better. Get well soon.
Note: Consult an experienced Otolaryngologist / ENT Specialist online for further follow up on ear, nose, and throat issues - Book a Call now.
