A member asked:

Describe a period beyond which levocetirizine and montelukast should not be used in young kids suffering bronchial asthma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

No such period: There is no period when these drugs should not be used. The question is whether they are still working and whether something different may be required. Your doctor should be able to provide the answer for these questions.
