You have been suffering from allergic rhinitis (hay fever) for the last two years. Symptoms like sneezing, running nose, and congestion can be very annoying. Usually, the things that trigger this allergic reaction are pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Antihistamines like Montas-L can help you by blocking the allergy response and thus, reducing the symptoms. The regular intake of your medication is necessary for the proper control of your allergy.
