Took Singulair for approx. two weeks due to ears "popping" and feeling full of fluid, even though ENT could detect nothing. First week seemed like miracle drug, ears cleared up and allergies greatly abated. Second week, developed constant pain in hip joints and lower back, and tingling in feet, and terrible acid reflux. Since it was the only new med I'd been taking, I took myself off to see if that was the cause. Within 24 hours, all hip joint pain, tingling in feet and reflux was gone. My son is 3 and has been on Singulair for a year for allergies/asthma and it has helped him tremendously, esp. since he uses a nebulizer in winter months. This past winter the nebulizer use was way down. He is a sweet layed back kid but has started becoming hyper and agressive and a lot of disobedience, which could be just his age. In any case, I've taken him off as well to see if Singulair has caused any adverse effects on his health or behavior.

I have been on ADVAIR for approx. 1/2 a year. At 1st it seemed to help & still is with the asthma. But now I seem to have a real low resistance to viral infections or at least sinus related stuffiness. I have had a nasal problem with stuffiness/post nasal drip/ears popping & ringing and loss of taste for almost 2 months now. I went to my allergist's P.A. 10 days ago & got a script for amoxicillin 875 mg & I still am having issues. They thought I may have a sinus infection. Is anyone else experiencing nasal congestion & rhinitis while on ADVAIR?
