My son's dry cough and runny nose have returned after stopping his one-week treatment of Montek LC Kid and Phexin; what should I do now, and is it safe to restart these medications?

Asked by Male, 2 · 12 days ago

Please do not restart Montek LC Kid (montelukast and levocetirizine) or Phexin (cephalexin) without consulting his pediatrician first. Phexin is an antibiotic, and restarting it without medical supervision is not recommended and can be harmful. His returning dry cough and runny nose could be due to a new mild viral infection or allergies. For now, please keep him comfortable and well-hydrated, and use saline nasal drops to help clear his nose. I highly recommend having his pediatrician evaluate him to determine the safest next steps.
