| 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 | 4 | asthma | vivid dreams, insomnia, slight anxiety | I've taken this medicine for most of my life and it has made my asthma so much better. Before I started taking it I had to use my inhaler a couple times a day. Now I use it less than once a month. The vivid dreams are really interesting so they don't bother me. I feel anxious even when I'm not taking it, so I don't know if I can blame that on the medicine. As for the insomnia, I'll definately take not sleeping through the night over felling like I am being suffocated. Luckily this medicine works really well for me, and I feel bad for all the people who have had negative side effects because it makes breathing so much easier. | F | 19 | 12 years 10 mg 1X D | 8/2/2010 | 4 | allegies and asthma | I take the medication at night. It makes me extremely sleepy. I have noticed a slight change in mood,I am a little more emotional and I have very vivid emotional dreams. | But at this point the improvement in both my asthma and allegies has been so significant that I will continue taking it. I would like to note that My doctor wants to wean me off in a few months to see how my body will do on it's own. Since I have almost no need for my rescue inhaler and I honestly feel better. I have been on lookout for the negative side effects since day one but so far so good. I seem to tolerate this medication quite well. | F | 32 | 37 days 10mg 1X D | 3/18/2011 | 4 | seasonal allergies to cedar/juniper | I took Singulair last year for my allergic reaction to cedar and juniper pollen and it worked great for my sneezing/runny nose symptoms. When I first started taking it, I had some fun and unusual dreams for the first couple of weeks. Then those dreams turned into nightmares. I quit taking it when the cedar trees were done spreading pollen and the nightmares went away. It's a new year and I was having allergy symptoms again, so I started up with the Singulair a week ago. This time I went straight to the nightmares. I woke my husband up the other night yelling out in my sleep. Last night I had a series of sad and depressing dreams and this morning I feel terrible. I need to go off of this medication...it isn't worth it! | F | 54 | 7 days 10 mg 1X D | 2/10/2011 | 4 | alleriges | sleepy if taken during the day for me. | i can tell if i stop it because my allergies act up again. | F | 36 | 2 weeks 10 1X D | 6/3/2011 |
