Fludac (fluoxetine) is an ant-depressant and Oxypur (doxofyllline) is an anti-asthmatic. They are not for treatment of sneezing. Only Montec-LC (levocetrizine + montelukast) will help control sneezing. You may discuss with your local doctor to add a steroid nasal spray. This along with regular steam inhalation will help reduce your sneezing. Discuss with your doctors why Oxypur was started. Do they suspect lung related problems?
Hello,
Welcome to HCM. From your history i think you might be suffering from allergic rhinitis. Please understand that as far as my knowledge goes, allergic conditions cant be cured but only controlled. You are taking Montair/Montec LC and that is good for you. You can also steroid combination nasal spray(Like Dunase/Combinase AQ) for your severe symptomatic relief. Mind it, although inhalation steroid has less side effects than systemic steroid, steroid should always be taken only under your Doctors supervision.
The condition you described that you are not even able to go to office for it, i think you are a candidate for steroid nasal spray.
Take care and thanks
