Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello
the medicines you are giving are absolutely fine.
You should continue monteleukast kid for atleast 2 months.
kindly give a detailed history regarding family history of allergies.
Also give me the past history regarding total number of doctor visits,also mention the reasons.
i would recommend home remedies to prevent cough and cold like a teaspoon of honey in luke warm water daily and avoidance to cold drinks and icecreams,dust,sour drinks,candies etc.as they all can trigger cough and cold very fast.
Hope it will help :-)
