My mother is 50 years old and has dust allergy. Pulmonologist have advised her to take seroflo and duolin inhaler, fluticasone af nasal spray and telekast L tablets continuously for some years. Can theses medicines be taken for such a long time? What are the side effects of these medicines for such a long time. Thank you.

The side effects of Telekast-L Tablet can vary depending on the age group. In case of children above 12 years and adults, the common side effects are sore throat, dry mouth, tiredness and nasopharyngitis (inflammation and redness of your throat and nose). Children of 6-11 years can suffer from cough, fever, bleeding from the nose or sleepiness. Children younger than 6 years may experience diarrhea, vomiting and constipation. These mild side effects do not stay long, but you can consult your doctor for a solution. There are some serious side effects though, that need immediate treatment, like: Allergic reactions, that can cause itching, swelling of your face or throat, or a rash Problems related to the kidney, like trouble in urinating, changes in your usual amount of urine or blood in urine Blurred vision Yellowing of your skin or the eyes Difficulty breathing Sudden mood changes like getting agitated, aggressive, having suicidal thoughts Telekast-L Tablet is known to cause drowsiness, especially in the initial hours. Refrain yourself from activities like driving or using machinery during this period. Also, avoid alcohol as it can further raise your risk of feeling drowsy.
