Pregnancy interaction:
Montair FX Tablet has two anti-allergic drugs in it: Montelukast and Fexofenadine.
Pregnancy: Class B (animal studies demonstrate no damage, but there aren't many human research). If a doctor clearly tells you to use it and the advantages are greater than the risks, you can use it.
Breastfeeding: Both chemicals may go into breast milk in very minute levels. Only use if your doctor says it's okay.
Advice: Always talk to your doctor before using it while pregnant or breastfeeding.
Expert advice:
Take the pill at the same time every day, and try to do it in the evening.
Stay away from alcohol and sedatives because they can make you more likely to feel sleepy or dizzy.
If you're tired, don't drive or use machines.
Drink plenty of water to aid with dryness or minor throat irritation.
If you are taking the prescription to prevent asthma, don't stop taking it suddenly without talking to your doctor first.
Keep it out of direct sunlight and in a cool, dry area.
Side Effects:
Headache
Feeling dizzy
Stomach discomfort or nausea
Being tired
Throat or mouth that is dry
Diarrhea
Sleep problems or vivid dreams (not very common)
Changes in mood or allergic reactions are quite rare.
If you have a rash, swelling, or trouble breathing, get medical help right once.
How to use:
Take the tablet with water and swallow it whole.
Take once a day, preferably at night or as your doctor says to.
You can take it with or without food.
Don't take more than the prescribed amount.
If you forget to take a dose, do so as soon as you remember, unless it's close to the next dose you have to take.
Keep taking it regularly to keep your allergies under control.
How it works:
Montelukast stops leukotrienes from working. These are substances that cause inflammation and narrowing of the airways. This helps keep asthma and other respiratory issues from happening.
Fexofenadine stops allergic symptoms like sneezing, itching, and watery eyes by blocking histamine receptors.
Together, they completely get rid of symptoms of nasal and respiratory allergies.

Medicine interaction:
Phenobarbital, Phenytoin, and Rifampicin may make Montelukast less effective.
Gemfibrozil: may raise the levels of Montelukast.
Ketoconazole or Erythromycin may raise the level of Fexofenadine in the body.
Antacids that include aluminum or magnesium in them may make it harder for your body to absorb Fexofenadine. Don't take them within two hours of Montair FX.
Always tell your doctor about any other medications or supplements you are taking.
