HI,
Thank you for your query.
You can taper by taking the medication every alternate day or by taking fexofenadine 60 mg and montelukast 4 or 5 mg which are available separately.
Next Steps
Get your allergy tests done. Rule out dust mite allergy as your symptoms are worse in the first half of the day. Try to check why your symptoms are worse at certain times.
Health Tips
Non specific allergies such as those to changes in temperature can also cause similar symptoms. Drug induced or infection related rashes should be ruled out. Inform your doctor first.
Regards.
