How long does ketotifen brain fog actually last?

been on ketotifen for three weeks now and i’m basically a zombie at work. lab tech, so brain fog is genuinely not acceptable - i need to notice small details, catch patterns. the mast cell flares are actually better, which counts for something, but my head feels wrapped in cotton the whole time. idk, doc said the side effects should taper but didn’t give me an actual timeline. days? weeks? months? i don’t know. did the brain fog actually clear up for anyone else or did you end up switching to something different? how long were you basically useless before it actually got better?
