Please don’t worry. Montair FX (montelukast + fexofenadine) is commonly prescribed in pregnancy when needed, especially in the 2nd trimester, and taking it for 2 days is unlikely to cause any harm to the baby. You can continue it as advised by your doctor. For cold symptoms, take steam inhalation, warm fluids, and rest. If fever, worsening cough, or breathlessness occurs, consult your doctor.
