| 2 | To prevent nasal polyp regrowth | Was prescribed Singulair following sinus surgery as a precaution to prevent polyp regrowth (this is the third surgery). Began taking on 2/02/07 and have become profoundly tired, wake up, eat breakfast and want to go back to bed. No motivation for anything, have never been "depressed" but the symptoms are as such. Go to bed at 6 pm and sleep till 7 am and still am exhausted. Have no appetite and frequently think about death. Will continue the two month program set by my surgeon but will never use this drug again. | M | 55 | 15 days | 2/17/2007 | 2 | mild asthma | extreme anxiety, sadness, wake up in middle of night, crying without reason, belligerent, aggressive, mood swings | This medicine worked well for me in the past. I would take it only in the Fall, when my asthma usually bothers me. I liked Singulair because it nearly eliminated my need for an inhaler. However, this year I began feeling side effects after about one week. They were severe enough for me to seek an appointment with a mental health professional. My wife thought I should research the drugs and herbs I am taking, then I found this website. No more Singulair for me! | M | 55 | 3 years | 11/7/2006 | 2 | allergies | none that I noticed for sure. Mouth sore problem resurfaced, but not sure if its related to Singulair. I mention it just in case. Possible weight gain. Worked in the garden non-stop all weeekend. Usually I drop 5 lbs when I do that, but didn't past weekend. gained 1 lb. | Pollen isn't too bad this time of year, but I guess I'm allergic to mold spores. The past 2 days have been rainy and drizzly and humid. I have been sneezing non-stop. I'm going back to Allegra. | F | 55 | 10 days | 8/29/2006 | 1 | allergies, ear infs, congestion | Drug was very effective with no side effects until about 3rd - 4th month when I realized I had become depressed, anxious, irritable, easily agitated, and easily angered with no to little motivation which was very atypical for me. Could not find a reason for it. | Kept forgetting to pick up my refill so I rationed the remaining pills, taking one every couple days for a week and then went without for approx 5 days. By the 5th day having no singulair, I suddenly realized that I was back to normal with no depression, anxiety, etc. Will never take this drug again and hate to think what condition I could have been in had I continued on it any longer. So glad I found this out purely by accident. Am amazed at the very negative side effects and never suspected Singulair as the cause. | F | 55 | 5 months 10 mg 1X D | 4/23/2010 | 5 | Asthma | No side effects | F | 54 | 1 years 10mg day | 8/5/2012 |
