Confusion in medicine
My doctor prescribed my Montek lc...but today I noticed that I am taking Montek fx since last month... He prescribed me Montek lc because I was having ear infection and he operated last year and gave me Montek lc so that I can't catch cold easily So I should be worry that i am taking a different medicine Montek fx instead of Montek lc...or both medicine are just same. Please help me out..

They are similar in their action.. Fx has fexofenadine which is a less sedating variant on levocetrizine... As long as your symptoms are improving you don't need to worry about it

The medicines aren’t same , however they’re used for similar treatment. Both belong to the class of anti histamines. However it depends on what your surgeon prefers, you can re consult and ask for the need to continue

Both are similar, Montek FX doesn't give drowsiness as in Montek LC.
