Brief Answer:
Better to continue montek LC.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are mostly having allergic rhinitis.
So avoid allergens like dust, smoke, pollution, pollens etc.
And continue montek LC. Also start intranasal steroid containing spray. This will give you more relief.
And allergy treatment lasts long. After 6-8 months, we need to taper down drugs and spray.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
