Montek LC contains montelukast and levocetrizine. Your wife has used this anti allergic drug for the past two years. When taken for such a long time and stopped abruptly, the allergic reaction may flare up.
I would have recommended my patient Tab Allegra M (fexofenadine + montelukast) in place of Montek LC. I would not recommend stopping anti-allergic drugs abruptly after taking for long period of time.
Hope the above information helps you. Thank you very much.
