Doctor prescribed both montelukast and antihistamine.after taking antihistamine chest starts feeling heavy.what could be the cause?

Asthma/bronchospasm: It is less likely to be related to the medications and may be related to your allergic condition. Allergic triggers may cause bronchospasm. Other causes may include congestion, bronchitis and other infections. Watch for cough, wheezing and fever.
