Pediatrician,  's  Response
In various clinical trails the prolonged use of Cetirizine and Montelukast in children as a preventive measure against the attacks of asthma has not been shown to produce any adverse effects on cognition, development, or behavior either while the drug was being taken or after its administration had been discontinued.

So you need not worry and continue the medication as prescribed by doctor.

If you have further queries, you may consult me on healthcare magic.
