| 1 | Severe allergies | Singulair (an allergy medicine) caused me to have suicidal thoughts and I put a fork to my throat this morning over something stupid and my mom talked me out of it. I'm not the suicidal type and Singulair almost made me take my life. I also have had aggression, worse depression, rage, and not giving a rats booty on what I say to anyone. I talked to my mom like she was a dog and I'm not that kinda person. I even cussed my own husband out a couple times. I would NEVER talk to anyone like that! I was literally scared of myself. I even broke something of my great great grandmothers and it was one of the last objects my mom had of hers. I'm not the violent type at all. I'm hoping within a few days I can start feeling better. This medicine needs to be taken off the market. | F | 28 | 40 days 30mg 1X day | 8/12/2021 | 1 | Mild Allergies (Headaches) | Pain in left leg on the upper inner thigh | I went to the doctor to figure out what could be the cause of persistent headaches everyday. My doctor prescribed me montelukast being that I don't take any allergy medicine. I've taken the medicine for 2 nights and on the second night my left leg got so tired and I had a restless night because I couldn't get my leg to stop hurting or feeling tired. 4 days later I cannot walk without my left leg hurting nor can I lay down without it hurting. When I try to stretch it out it causes more pain. I do not recommend this medicine to anyone. | F | 25 | 2 days 10MG 1X day | 7/9/2021 | 3 | Allergies | After two and half months taking Singulair I started noticing a twitch under my left eye, and I’ve had it for almost two weeks. When I thought about anything I did differently, the only thing was starting this medication. I’ve had an eye twitch before. It does it for a little bit and goes away, but not this one. My legs feel jumpy lately as well. I also have brain fog and thought it may be due to my allergies, but it seems worse lately so maybe has to do with this as well. I also have ear fullness/pressure. My doctor suggested I stop taking this medication. I am curious if these symptoms will go away. | It did help me for the reason I was taking it, but if it’s why my eye is twitching, I’d rather that go away. | F | 48 | 3 months 10 MG | 6/3/2021 | 1 | Asthma | Singulair ruined me. I'm not the same person any more. Don't take this. It will make you go insane. | Just don't take it. | M | 21 | 4 days 15 1X day | 6/3/2021 | 1 | For MCAS | I took it in the evening. Had stomach pain falling asleep and felt queasy, but that isn't unusual for me. Woke up at 5am and sprang out of bed, ran to the bathroom. Was in there for 5 hours, puking, diarrhea, horrible nausea, stomach pain, anxiety, etc. i have a fear of vomiting so it made it worse too. The weirdest thing is that i has to take off my clothes and get my body freezing cold to make the nausea better. I took a bath at one point once i was feeling better, getting hot again started everything all over again. It is 11am now, as long as i keep myself freezing cold (muscles shaking and hurting level of cold) then I don't puke. I am utterly miserable. My body has been so cold for so long because that is the only thing that helps. I have never experienced anything like this before. I am disappointed because I really wanted this med to work. | It is important to mention that i have digestive track paralysis and my reaction to this med may have been a lot stronger because of my pre existing disease. Don't let it completely deter you, because the side effects may not be as bad for someone else. | F | 22 | 1 days Idk 1X day | 5/23/2021 | 1 | Sinusitis | Repetitive strong hiccups all day and all night. | M | 59 | 10 days 10 mg 1X day | 4/20/2021 | 1 | Minor allergies | Repeated sore throats, tingliness in face and arms, restless legs, increased anxiety, insane insomnia, worsening asthma (maybe caused it), worsening allergies, migraines, blurred vision, unsteady, dizziness, sore muscles, pelvic pain, deceased libido, issues with constipation, abdominal pain | I am mourning my health and mind that singular stole from me and am devastated. Doctor doesn't even believe this drug caused it. | F | 25 | 3 years 10 1X day | 4/11/2021 | 1 | Uncontrolled asthma | Unbearable left abdominal pain, back pain , numbness, dizziness, shaking, depression , wanting to hurt myself , anger , fast heart rate , chest pain , pins and needles , not being able to sleep , nightmares, seeing things and hearing things they where not there | I started taking this bc my doctor told me to did not warn my mum or me about the side effects after about a month things went down hill with abdominal pain unable to sleep ext 6 months later no doctors could figure out what was wrong with me untill a few nights ago I seen a video and decided to look up the side effects and there it was it took me 6 month I'm in severe pain to find out it was this and no doctors figured it out I'm still in the tablet I'm waiting for my doctor to get back to me and tell me it's safe to come of DO NOT RECOMMEND PLEASE WATCH FOR SIDE EFFECTS THIS HAS RUINED MY LIFE AND IK I WONT BE THE SAME !!! | F | 14 | 7 months 1X day | 3/19/2021 | 3 | Severe asthma and allergies | Irritability, anger, frustration, depressed mood. I have been taking this for 2 years and it really keeps my asthma under control but I have always been very level headed and patient and lately I have felt just sooooo quick to anger. I stopped taking and it is like a valve has released way less angry and more happy. It is hard though because it really helps my asthma so much. Allergy season is hard to get through without it. | F | 36 | 2 years 10 mg 1X day | 3/15/2021 | 1 | Sinus Inflammation | Loss of appetite, major hair loss( hair falling out in clumps) , mood swings, panic attacks, depression, thoughts of suicide, weight loss, personality loss, INSOMNIA. | Highly don't recommend. I stopped taking it 3 days ago and already starting to feel better. Completely lost myself for about a week or two. Doctors try to talk you into taking as if it is a well reputable drug and it is not. I cannot even believe it is FDA approved. | F | 21 | 8 weeks 10 MG 1X day | 2/27/2021 | 2 | Allergy induced asthma | Stomach pain, nausea, fatigue, anxiety, palpitations | It worked somewhat for my asthma but it gave me nausea and horrible stomach and abdominal pain. Also made my anxiety worse. I did not know what my stomach pain was from until I looked up side effects of this medication. | F | 59 | 3 weeks 1X day | 1/29/2021 | 1 | Allergies | Severe mood swings and agitation. Headaches and fogginess. Runny nose | Terrible! Not advised on side effects | F | 52 | 3 months 10 mg 1X day | 12/9/2020 | 5 | Allergic Rhinitis & Post Nasal drip | No side effects. | Love it, I don't take any other hay fever medication, | F | 58 | 14 months 10mg 2X W | 11/21/2020 | 4 | allergic rhinitis | No side effects yet. My nose feels great. I hate this season in the city. It is very difficult to live sneezing all day. I take it with loratadina and I feel great. Hope the side effects everyone has don't affect me. | F | 33 | 15 days 10mg 1X day | 11/10/2020 | 1 | allergies/asthma | severe stomach pain, vomitting, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, mental confusion, brain fog, memory issues, word retrieval issues, depression, lack of empathy, no desires(sexual and physical touch), isolation, fatigued, no sleep, nightmares, and hopelessness. | Do not take this medicine!!!! It changes your quality of life and you don't even know why or how it happened. I found out when I was checking singulair's interaction with supplements I was going to take to help with my brain issues and found this site and saw the same symptoms happened to other people. I have since stopped this med and in 2 days my brain issues started improving in addition I'm happy again....... | F | 52 | 8 months 10 1X day | 11/5/2020 | 1 | Asthma | Depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, decreased mood for many many years, weigh gain (unable to lose any weight), self harm. | This medication has helped my asthma, yes.... but it is not worth the declining mental health and weight gain it has caused me.... the anxiety attacks, depressive episodes, weeks of staying up til 3 or 4 am from insomnia, the difficulty losing weight but overall the loss of myself and who I was before this medication is what hurts the most. | F | 21 | 11 years 10 mg 1X day | 10/23/2020 | 2 | Asthma | Body numbness, aches & shooting pain in left leg. Vaginal pain/numbness/sore, sometimes feels like I may have UTI. | My asthma seems better, but the side effects are unpleasant. | F | 45 | 8 days 10mg 1X day | 10/15/2020 | 5 | Angioedema | No side effects. This is the ONLY thing that controls my angioedemas. | F | 58 | 3 months 30 mg 1X day | 10/3/2020 | 3 | Allergic asthma/ Copd | Irregular heart beat, neck pain and shoulder pain. Chest tightness. Numbness on left side of face. And tingles up and down both legs. | Breathing is better but I don't know if I can continue with numbness and jumpy heart rate. | F | 39 | 36 days 10mg 1X day | 10/1/2020 | 1 | Seasonal Asthma | It helped my seasonal asthma. However, the longest stint that I have ever taken monteleukast was about 2 weeks at a time in the past. This year, I decided to keep taking it after allergy season. Very bad idea, I experienced pressure headaches behind my eyes, loss of interest, fatigue, anxiety episodes, feeling of light headiness and wake up in the middle of the night with my heart racing and wouldn't be able to go back to sleep. My feet also started sweating quite a bit. | Today is the day that I stopped taking the medicine and so glad that I found the solution to this problem. I have never normally been this anxious of a person and cannot wait to return to my normal self | M | 22 | 3 months 10mg 1X day | 9/29/2020 |
