i can’t take montelukast at night as it makes me hyper and unable to sleep and if i do fall asleep i have nightmares and i hallucinate. so i take it in a morning after breakfast . i also have to take BP medication Losartan 100 i take at night .. but i them lying down to sleep and lately i’m getting a lot of indigestion at night . so im really interested to know if i can take take them both in a morning.
stay safe my friends
I take both Montelukast and Losarton together at the same time of day without any issues, always by 8pm as to avoid reflux (taking pills or food at bedtime is asking for reflux). I was advised by the pharmacist that taking BP pills in the evening increased their effectiveness, something to do with BP activity overnight.
Speak to your chemist. They will know if you can take BP pill in the morning.
Hope you are doing OK x
Have you talked to your doctor about the nightmares? That's a sign the Montelukast is crossing the blood-brain barrier which it does in some people. My doctor took me off it for that reason. Just an FYI-
hi Hilary , yes i spoke to consultant and he suggested i take it in a morning , no more nightmares ,
Please could you explain what ‘blood- brain barrier’ means? TIA
The way I understood it, is that it's a barrier to the brain that prevents meds in the bloodstream from going into the brain. In some people, montelukast can cause suicidal thoughts, depression, psychadelic nightmares etc. when the medicine goes through this barrier into their brain. It's why it has a black box warning in the states. However! Many people take it and have a great experience with it and no reactions. It's an odd drug.
Many thanks for your reply !
I take my losartan potassium in the morning. It has brought my BP down. Definitely burping an awful lot since starting it though.
