Experiencing Chest Pain After The Intake Of Medicines
I've just been put on Mentolukast for asthma and allergies, I've been on it since Tuesday and I keep experiencing chest pain and feeling like I'm coming down with a cold ever since I started taking them, is this a common side effect? Should I just let my body adjust to this tablet or go to A&E/GP with this pain? I'm also taking ventolin and Fostair (100/6mcg). Thank you.

Hello. Thank you for your question. It is unlikely that the Montelukast is the cause of your chest pain. It is possible, however, that your asthma is. In any case, chest pain is a symptom worth contacting your doctor about. I recommend consulting with your doctor.
