I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns. As per your description it seems like you are having allergic rhinitis.
Montek-LC is a combination drug consist of Monteleukast and levocetrizine, both of these are safe and you can take it during pregnancy.
You can avoid dust and mites as it will provoke and aggravate the symptoms.

Brief Answer:
Avoid dust and mites

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
You may be having allergic rhinitis, that means when you exposed to allergens like dust that will trigger the immune response and manifest as symptoms.
The best thing is to avoid the potential allergens like dust and mites and also to wear mask.
When you are symptomatic you have to take drugs like montek-LC, If there is inherent allergic problems it is quite difficult to stop medicines completely.
You can take anti allergic drugs when there is symptoms.
A short course of steroids may be tried after discussing with your physician when there is severe symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query.
