ok thank you so much!
You are right
This is dangerous drug
Can I used in Prangrancy????
Not sure if you are aware of the true side effects of this drug or not...the few you mentioned don’t even scratch the surface. The CDC put a black box warning on this drug earlier. The benefits do NOT always outweigh the risk.
Definitely many drugs will have a great list of side effect and black box warnings but many of them are either warnings and precautions or idiopathic effects. Warnings are are different from side effects where the later are observed common in most of the population. Here in this video I focused mainly on its mechanism and pharmacology. But as you said, while a drug is prescribed it should be checked that whether benefits overweigh the risk or not. Thanks for your interest and watching this video.
I took this drug and did not have many side effects. The only one was panick attacks at the beginning ,but after a while they went away. My asthma got better thanx to this drug
This medication almost got me into bloody fight
Made me aggressive
Sir great!!,❣️
You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
how long montelukast can be taken?
This is my question also. My doctor told to take it for life time. And I also noticed that whenever I stop taking it, chest congestion re-occurs. During the course almost no breathing issue can be found.
A “side effect” I have is noteworthy reduction of knee pain and inflammation!
Thankyou sir

Great ! Thanks for your interest.
This works for COViD breathing issues also
My doc has given me this due to allergy rhinitis.. I looked it up online and the side effects are freaking me out I haven't taken yet I'm to scared.. any other safer options pls
Ask your doctor.
I had suffered from common colds and cough for 3 weeks and decided to consult a doctor because the OTC medicines I bought didn't treat my respiratory illness. The doctor prescribed montelukast and azithromycin (antibiotic) for me. I got rid of my cold and cough within 5 days after taking my medicine. I do have OCD symptoms (not clinically diagnosed) but the prescribed medicines didn't aggravate my mental health condition.
If you search any drug on internet you will see many side effects but it doesn't mean it will happen to you. So listen your doctor otherwise you have to take many other drugs or you will die
Sir is there any possibility that montelukast will be available as inhaled steroid??
Very good drug 👍 I use it for my asthma
Any side effects?
How long have you used it
I have not had any side effects and I have been using it for 4 years. 😊
@@brittanynicole8569 have you ever tried to get off of it with any issues?
@@AJ88874 I have actually never tried to come off of it because I think it just works so well for me. I am not sure if coming off of it would cause any side effects or not.
