Is it okay to may son to take Montek LC kid. even after taking these all medicines. If so, what would be the side effect for long duration of Montek. Please guide me. Prem Dutt Dwivedi, Chennai.
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Chronic breathing problem in your son may be due to a reactive airway disease and Monte is prescribed as a prophylactic Chat Doctor.  Other medicines you mentioned are given as a short term treatment to relieve symptoms at present. So its totally safe and even recommended giving these medicines together, and I would suggest you to follow what the pediatrician has advice. Take care.
