My 4 yr old son has been on Singulair for 2 years now After having what was close to pneumonia, his pediatrician decided that we should try Singulair. He suffered from allergies all year round and both sides of the family also have a history of allergies. We went over the indicators to decide whether or not there was a good chance that he would develop asthma. Yes, we found there was a very good chance. We were told that Singulair is the one drug that could actually prevent him from developing asthma - so OF COURSE we said okay. He started so young, that we never really realized that this wasn't just his "personality" - you know terrible two's, then independence, then along came his baby sister...on and on. Anyway, he has always been an overly-emotional child, hyper, etc., but then it was like every little thing bothered him and he would throw fits about "nothing". One day I told him to stop acting this way and while crying he said he couldn't stop and asked me to help him to stop. How heartbreaking! He goes to preschool and can't sit in a circle for more than a couple of minutes without being reminded by the teacher to sit down. He has been especially aggressive - saying how he just wants to kick something or push his sister down. He has always been a restless sleeper, but just recently he has been telling me about his terrible dreams - things you would never expect to hear from a 4 yr old. I thought he was a hypochondriac b/c he was always complaining about something hurting. I was reading about ADHD and decided that maybe this was what he had - everything fit quite closely to these same behaviors. I called the pediatrician's office to see if this may be his diagnosis and instead they told me about the possibility that Singulair might be to blame. They told me take him off of it and see how things go. It has only been 3 days. I have not seen any improvement and his is very itchy and scratching like crazy. I'll let you know what we find out.

I am 20 years old and I have been on Aviane for about 6 months. I found that I get tired pretty easily and moody too. Just recently my period was late, light and lasted a couple of days. I am worried. Is this normal?

I have been on this medicine for almost 6 days and I am only 20 years old. I have had a sinus infection for 3 weeks now and have been on antibiotics for 20 days. The Lavaquin they have had me on has caused tingling sensations in my legs and arms I am tired all the time. I play college basketball and have never felt so tired. I cant sleep at night I have anxiety and nightmares about dying and toss and turn for hours. I cant get out of a chair without feeling like I am going to pass out which is very scary. my arms feel tired and this medicine has made me feel like there is something really wrong with me instead of helping me. Do not take this medicine!

After numerous decadron shots, I finally went on a prednisone dose pak last week. All this started after falling and pulling a muscle in my side.

My 1st side effect was this wonderful feeling/energy after day #2. If I would have been up to it, I would have cleaned my entire house and still hunted for something to clean. I told someone I felt 20 years old and may feel 15 after finishing the pak. No such luck.

2 nights ago, I couldn't stop feeding my face. This went on for about 3 hours. I ate everything edible that I could find, even going as far as pouring italian dressing all over a chicken breast and gulping it down, yucky.

Today, I'm miserable. My stomach feels 10x's bigger than usual, and I feel so bloated/full even though I've not eaten much today. I actually took a laxative thinking this might help the fullness feeling.......no such luck.

I've never taken this. The extent of my medications is Crestor 10 mg 2x week. I'm an LPN in a busy doctors office, so I know what's going on with my body.

I'm hoping this fullness feeling will go away without any complications. I'm off work tomorrow, so it will be tuesday before I can report my side effects.

I have never experienced a feeling like this before. I had vivid, unexplainable dreams. The first night taking it, I had a strange feeling in my throat and woke up almost choking(that was on the list of side effects, closing of the throat. I kept myself up all night and now I feel like yesterday and today was one big long day. Now I'm getting the feeling again while I'm awake and am afraid to go asleep. I also felt very, very weak and dizzy all day. This is not worth it, I want my old self back already and this is only my second dose. I read up on Shen Min DHT blocker and want to give that a try. I'm 20 years old, have long hair and want to keep it, I love it like a child.

twogirlsmom, have you found anything that helps? the klonopin helps keep it under control, but I still experieince it. Has it lessened at all in the last 6 months you've been off? I'm only 20 years old and I'm going back to my last year of college where I will have morning classes, I can't have this :-(

I am 51 years old i have been taking this medication for over 20 years. I was taking 2 pills a day which was helping me a quite a bit. My son was just born when i started and he is now going to be 20 years old. I have servere arthritis on my knees and i need to have knee replacement on both knees. No im taking this darvocet 4 or sometimes 5 a day and it really helps me to stay on my feet. I cannot stand on my feet for over 10 minutes i'm in pain and i want to cry. I am on disability and this pill has help me to much . It also gives me energy makes me want to be on my feet cleaning and also helps me with my sex drive. I want to be with a man for a longer period of time, and yes i feel a little sleepy so i rest when i want to , i can take a nap at least twice if i want too. If i want to stay up all day i do its all a mind thing. It does give me a little stomach pain if i take it with a empty stomach, other wise it really helps me . I will take this medication for as long as i have to because i do not want to have surgery on my knees. I also have back pain but i feel fine when i take my medication. I also take naproxen 500 mg and lisinipril 20mg all in total i take 5 different medications twice a day. But i will not stop taking my darvocet because without it i feel weak, i cannot move without feeling pain all over. I feel like im 80- years old when im not taking my pills, but i feel like im 30 years old when i taking this medication it really makes me feel energetic , happy , very good sex drives and i can live with this forever. Hope this will help someone, who is confused, about this drug. I have 6 sisters with the same problems knee problems and my mother who is 68 years old and she also takes this for pain.

I've been on Zyrtec for roughly 3 months now, and I out of the blue started sweating profusely from my arm-pits. I'm 20 years old, past the sweaty portion of puberty, and I've never sweated so much in my entire life. Even when I'm completely inactive I soak my shirt through.

Also, I've been feeling rather depressed lately, my once happy outlook on life has turned 100% bitter and cynical.

I'm 20 years old, and I went on Yasmin this past summer (a little less than a year ago) and for the first month or so it was fine. Then I began to feel depressed. At first it was mild, but by now it has escalated to the point that I can't remember being truly happy in the last 6 months. I cry every day, and I think the most depressing things. I have always been a happy person, and I'm so sad all the time now, it's horrible. I broke up with my boyfriend and say horrible things that I know I shouldn't, I act so desperate, pathetic, and horrible. It's not me at all, and I have been miserable for so long and not known why. My friend just recently suggested that maybe Yasmin was responsible for the change in my mood, and I plan to talk to my doctor about it as soon as possible. If this is something you are experiencing, try to get off this pill. It has made me a completely different person, one that I hate, and I cant wait to be back to myself.
