Hello,
There is no need to stop SERTA.In fact SERTA should not be stopped as it would result in rebound of his problems for which SERTA was prescribed.
You can give both Allegra and SERTA.
Along with this give your son steam inhalation 2-3 times a day for 4-5 days as it would help him in his cold and cough problems.
Thanks
