Watch out for side effects. It had a dramatic impact on my mood. I stopped and started again 3 times over a year to see if it was truly the Singulair. It was.

This medicine was prescribed for my 8-year-old daughter. We started her on it because she was sent home from school with a runny nose and missed 10 days due to Covid policies. We wanted her to have the best chance to get to go to school during allergy season. Like others have said, I wish we would have read more about possible side effects. Since she's been taking this, her behavior has changed drastically to the point that the last few days she has been unrecognizable. She is angry, aggressive, and screams and lashes out sometimes for no reason. She is usually an extremely happy, easygoing child. I was ready to take her to a counselor when my husband looked at the side effects. We stopped use immediately. I'm hoping it doesn't take too long to get out of her system. We would rather her deal with allergy symptoms than to not ever feel like herself.

Staying at home through this pandemic means 24 hrs a day exposure to my cat - and I now know how allergic I am to him! Within a week I was wheezing, especially at night, itchy throat, eyes, sneezing constantly. Called the doc and was given a scrip for Singulair and an albuterol inhaler. After reading reviews of both drugs, I was too scared to use either. After another week of wheezing, I finally tried the inhaler and it worked instantly, but I needed it several times a day which I didn't like doing. After another week of struggling to breathe I was desperate enough to set aside the horror story reviews of Singular that I read here and finally took one. I FELT BETTER THE NEXT MORNING. I've been taking Singulair every evening for 10 days now and the wheezing is gone, I can take deep breaths and sleep soundly for the first time in a while. I still take Allegra as well, as I find the Singulair doesn't help with sneezing and itchy nose/throat. I have experienced NO side effects from Singulair. My advice is to give it a chance. I know many have had serious terrible side effects but please don't just read the scary reviews and think they will happen to you.

Tried every steroid and inhaler on the market and nothing work as well as this. No depression issues but maybe some dizziness. It's been a life changer for me.
