 1  seasonal allergies / sinus infectio headache, hives, rash, trembling, fatigue It seems as though I had an allergic reaction to an allergy medication - imagine that! I had an itchy rash that spread from my face to my scalp, neck, back and shoulders before good ol' Benadryl fixed it. I'd take this medication with extremem caution. F 32 14 days

 1   I just have to say that after reading all of these reviews...WHY WOULD A DR STILL PRESCRIBE THIS TO ANY CHILD????? This drug should be taken off the market!!! My friend has her son on this and as I am reading this it is exactly what she is telling me he is doing....This is absolutely insane...No mother or father should have to go through any of this...Singulair is NOT for children...As it shows in most all of these reviews that it affects the persons whole being...Seriously think long and hard before you put your child on this medication.

 1  asthma symptoms for 4.5 year old emotional, irritable, tantrums, crying over everything, angry, extreme hyperactivity our pediatrician prescribed this for our daughter's mild asthma symptoms to be taken as needed. she was on it for 4 days and they were unbearable. it took me a while to put it together...i kept wondering what was going on. i did more screaming in those 4 days than i have done in her lifetime. she was completely out of control and angry about everything, throwing tantrums, and was completely disobedient. on the 4th day i called the dr. and asked if her behavior could be at all related to the medication and was told "absolutely not." i was not satisfied, so i searched and found 14 pages of people describing the same thing. i feel vindicated, but also very sad that i gave her this medication in the first place. it needs to be taken off the market for children.

 1  asthma; wheezing, night cough Nightmares. I gave my son one pill. After he went to bed I searched for side effects. I saw all the terrible reviews and hoped for the best. I won't put him on steriods because he is very small for his age and I don't want his growth delayed. He woke up with nightmares all night. He whimpered and shook as he lay beside me sleeping. My heart broke. I'm so glad I knew this was a side effect so I could immediately stop giving it to him. We're looking into alternative treatment (traditional chinese medicine). F 32 1 days
