A member asked:

Does using the advair diskus (salmeterol and fluticasone) and the singulair tablet cause cold symptoms to be worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: There is no medication in advair or singulair (montelukast) which should make "cold" symptoms worse. Actually the singulair (montelukast) should reduce the inncreased mucus and airway narrowing cuased by "colds" and advair should decrease the asthma symptoms caused by "colds.".
