Is Montek 5 Advisable For Chronic Cold?
Hi.. My kid is 13 months old and she weighs 9kgs. She was suffering from cold for the past 1 month due to frequent travel. After taking antibiotics for more than 4 courses. My doc decided not to give antibiotics anymore. Now she is taking Relent Anticold syrup and Montek 5. Actually my doc asked to give Montek 4 but pharma doesnt have tat in stock and they said to give Montek 5. Is that ok ?

Respected user , hi
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .
* As Relent anticold syrup contains ambroxol & cetrizine ( anti histamine ) ,
I would recommend to give half of 5 mg means 2.5 mg Montek once daily
rather than giving 5 ; as cetrizine will have add on effect with Montek .
Hope to clarify your query .
