A choked voice (hoarseness) is not a common side effect of Monti FX, though its antihistamine component can cause throat dryness. Your symptoms are more likely due to viral laryngitis, dust irritation, or post-nasal drip. Your Betadine gargles are helpful. Additionally, please follow these steps: Strict Voice Rest: Avoid speaking or whispering, as whispering strains the vocal cords more. Steam Inhalation: Inhale steam twice daily to soothe your vocal cords. Hydration: Sip warm water throughout the day. Avoid starting new medications without advice. If your voice does not improve in 5?7 days, or if you develop breathing or swallowing difficulties, please consult an ENT specialist.
