Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Please note , cough , running nose, watery eyes, sneezing , itching in throat and over eyes, irritation in throat , prompted by dust, mite , mold , pollen, hay . fumes, spray, smokes.
All these above mentioned symptoms are characteristic features of asthmatic allergic bronchitis ( I am sorry to say precursor of asthma).
The best thing is to avoid these causative factors.
As far as treatment as you mentioned monteleukast + levocterizine is most potent and good.
If I were your treating doctor for this case of allergic bronchitis I would have prescribed monteleukast +bambuterole with no side effects .
Take this according to symptoms and stop one relief.
Good luck.
DR. HET.
