Good evening. My son is 5 years old and suffers from asthma and atopic dermatitis. I take Zyrtec 10 drops of flixotide 125 by tube in the morning and in the evening. Unfortunately he coughs constantly, the doctor changed his flixotide to seretide, unfortunately I can't get it at the pharmacy. She also prescribed montelukast 4 mg chewable tablets, but did not say what the minimum interval between the administration of the drugs should be. If I give Zyrtec at 6 p.m. and flixotide at 8 p.m., what time can I give montelukast?

As far as dosage is concerned, please follow the information given to you by your doctor. If, for some reason, you do not have a schedule, it is worth contacting the pharmacy where the prescription was filled. Your pharmacist will give you the information on your prescription. Otherwise, it will help to contact the doctor who prescribed the drug.
As a pharmacist, I can only give you general information:
Zyrtec: take this medicine with dinner.

Flixotide: this medicine should be given twice a day, every 12 hours.

Montelukast: Chewable tablets should be taken 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating. A distance of 4 hours should be maintained. from the consumption of orange or apple juices.
It is not necessary to keep a long interval from other medicines. It is better to spread the use of the preparations over time so as not to overload the liver by metabolizing drugs at the same time.
I am attaching information on the availability of Seretide in pharmacies cooperating with the GdziePoLek.pl service:
