| 4 | Asthma | My daughter has been on the medication to treat her asthma for quite some time. I never thought much about the side effects because most drugs come with side effects and you can't get too hung up on every detail, especially when the benefit of taking the pill is clearly positive. In the past several years, I have noticed my daughter's propensity to anger very quickly and when she does, it is completely out of control. She unleashes on me and her brother, in particular, and she has told me that her brain just can't control it. I started wondering about why this was so prevalent with her and whether there is a connection between her taking Singulair and this behavior. Also, for the past several years, she has a facial tic that comes and goes. While this is not uncommon in children, she seems to get it every year around the same time -- when the weather starts to get cold. I am now starting to wonder if there is a connection between her Singulair intake and her facial tics. Based on | F | 8 | 5 years 5 MG 1X D | 12/14/2010 | 1 | asthma | Within one hour of taking this med. I began experiencing hot flashes, feeling faint, sweating palms and tingling in arms and legs (almost like when you take a high dose of Niacin). This sensation lasted on and off for about 26 hours (terrible experience). I could not sleep the entire night. Would have thought I was having an anxiety attack except for the fact that I could breath great! Not worth it though. I will never take this again. | F | 43 | 1 days 5mg 1X D | 12/14/2010 | 1 | Severe allergies | Anxiety,anger,depression,insomnia,weight loss,palpitations,decreased energy. | Having suffered from severe sinusitis due to allergies for 30 years, having used cortisone sprays, pseudo ephedrine with little effect I discovered Singular and researching that it blocked receptor that causes allergic reactions I thought I would give it a try. Yes it was great for allergies but the side effects were dangerous. I actually thought I was going to end up in a mental hospital. I do have a very busy schedule, but I was unable to cope with anything. | M | 54 | 30 days 10mg 1X D | 12/14/2010 | 5 | Asthma | Mood swings, serious emotional side effects | Singulair has really bad emotion side effects but it has saved my life. I started taking it when it first came on the market for asthma. Before this drug I was very sick and never slept one night without an attack. 12 years later and I sleep, every night. I only wish it was less expensive( 230ish a month without insurance...ouch). | F | 23 | 12 years 30mg 1X D | 12/13/2010 | 3 | allergies, croop | My 6 year old boy has mood changes on a dime, when he gets upset he can cry for an hour. Very aggitated. My 14 year old son was on it for 5 years and he had some of the same side effects until he was taken off of it and then they went away. | F | 40 | 4 years 5mg 1X D | 12/10/2010 |
