Ashma symptoms and conditions

My 11 month old baby was put on Singulair two days ago to help improve his ashma and severe allergy problems, he used to be a good sleeper (sleeps the entire night since he was 2 months old from 8 pm to 7 am) but last night he woke up at 10:30pm, 1:30 am, 3:45pm, and finally he was done with his sleeping at 6:30 am, also he has experienced nausea and vomit. I notice that his breathing is improving but how long I have to wait to really prove that he is getting any of all the terrible side effects I read in here?

Hi guys,
I came to this forum after a client at our firm told me to check out whats happening with singular. I am not a lawyer, but I am a secretary for a med mal firm and I can tell you that we have already started taking these cases. I saw a few questions posted about whether you had to wait 9 months for the investigation to finish, but that doesn't stop you from filing suit. If it were my baby boy, I would switch meds, but if you can't--make sure you journal EVERYTHING. Take videos of outbursts, etc. We have one client who's son is self mutilating after using singular. If thats happening to you, try to document the episodes. Like I said, im not a lawyer, but I work for some so I can answer a lot of questions and I would be more than willing to help. I am so disgusted by what I have read. Please email me if you have any legal questions, etc. If i can't answer them, my boss will and if its a medical question, we have a staff nurse so I will give her a call. Again, I am so sorry for what everyone is going through. I pray to god I can help in some way.

I received a shot on the 21st of march and was told by my dr that the side effects were minimal and I have now been on my period for 18 days straight called my dr and they said thats not normal call your ob dr. Now that I have found this web site I see that I am not the only one who has had this problem. I have always thought it was a dr responsibility to worn you about side effects like this but I guess NOT. And to top it all off the shot didn't even work for me I am stili in alot of pain in my back. THIS SUCKS

I am a singer and i'm concerned about the effect if any
advair will have on my voice. However, I've been coughing for years. I've taken Advair off and on for about the last 5
years. I was officially declared as having Ashma about 5 years ago. When the coughing gets out of hand, Advair seems to do the trick. I'm really pretty anxiouis about taking it consistently(I never have). I will take 2x a day when my
coughing is really bad. It was keeping me up at night,
and working was really difficult. I was truely wore out
every morning and it's impossible way to live--tired most all
the time and coughing your like I'm gonna cough up a lung.
I've never smoked in my life.

I've been taking Advair 2x a day for about two weeks,
and yes I don't go thru the night coughing. I'm still coughing some but as the medication gets in my system I'm really coughing much, much less. My co-worker have noticed that I'm coughing less and have asked me what medication I'm using. However, I don't sleep well at night, I mean it's really difficult for me to get to sleep. I'm very wakeful at night.
It's ether take Advair and no coughing, but it may be hours before I get to sleep. Has anyone else had this problem with not being able to sleep as a side effect of taking Advair?
I'm afraid if I don't stop coughing it will take a toll on my voice.

i have been on this drug for 8 months for my ashma . before this i would be on it maybe 6 times a tear for a week or so but i am now steroid dependent and cant live without thse . my klfe has changed so much be cause of these steroids . i went from a very confident person to someone who cant look in the mirror at myself. i have deperession , and fly off the handle cant sleep and my skin is transperent and bruid=ses so easily . i at my lowest ebb because of these drugs.

I just started taking singulair and since the start I always feel like I have water in my lungs. I stopped taking it for three days last week and that feeling left. I have had some other side effects too, like gained 8 lbs.
Thanks to all of you for your shared effects of this drug.. I see mostly children, but I am 67 and have never been on any drugs in my whole life.. I do not like this drug. It is for my ashma, I also take advair, that seems to be ok.
