I appreciate your concern.

Yes you may use Montair Lc in your pregnancy as its a relatively safe drug in pregnancy. Though the best way would be not to expose the baby to any such drug but as benefits outweigh the risks , you may use it . its a category b pregnancy drug. please let me know if you are using any other drugs in addition to the montelukast.
