Can tablet Odimont-LC cause any mental side effects?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I visited an ENT Doctor for my persistent nasal congestion. He found out some issues with my internal nasal anatomy, but he said that it is not much deviated and can be managed by medications. He prescribed furoate nasal steroid spray for one month and tablet Odimont-LC for 20 days. I am unsure about tablet Odimont-LC, as one of the ingredients is Montelukast, which I found while searching about tablet Odimont-LC. I stumbled upon Montelukast, which had a warning that it may cause mental side effects. My question is, is it safe to take that medicine for 20 days? Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Actually, tablet Ondimont-LC is a combination of Levocetirizine and Montelukast, an anti-allergic and excellent drug for allergic rhinitis. So I suggest you use this drug. All the nasal congestion and runny noses are caused by allergies such as pollen, dust, or weather changes. So that is why to prevent allergies, your doctor has prescribed this medicine. So please do not worry at all. It is completely safe to take without any hesitation.

Hope it helps.
