Using the daily oral combination of montelukast and levocetirizine is generally safe long-term under supervision. However, using decongestant nasal sprays for more than 3 to 5 days can worsen blockage (rebound congestion) and cause nosebleeds. For safer long-term relief, steroid nasal sprays (like fluticasone or mometasone) combined with saline nasal rinses are highly recommended to reduce inflammation and dryness. Because a deviated septum is a physical blockage, medications only manage symptoms rather than cure them. Please consult an ENT specialist to safely transition your medications and evaluate if a corrective procedure like septoplasty is suitable for you.
