As per your history, your son is probably suffering from Allergic rhinitis & your doctor has appropriately prescribed Manticore (Montelukast + Levocetrizine) for him. Duration of this treatment is usually 6-8 weeks, then doctor should re-evaluate the response and treat accordingly. An alternative to this treatment is inhalation corticosteroid by inhaler. People are sometimes afraid of inhalers, but no need to worry, it is only a targeted Chat Doctor.
