My son age 3 was diagnosed with asthma about a year ago. Since then he has been sick constantly. Most recently his doctor has prescribed Singulair. He is aggressively pushing it on us. I stated my concerns to him, and he said there is nothing wrong with the drug.. he gets all the news letters.. and all the things I listed was the first time he heard anything.. I asked for his to refer us to a specialist and he wont.. I cant find anyone for a second opinion..My son needs medicine- at night i cant leave his side cause of his breathing.. The doctor wont suggest any alternate and I am stuck. I keep reading about all the people who are not taking singulair anymore- what what are they taking? I am completely lost here!

I had all the problems that you people describe and I have been off the medication for 3 months and I still have a little light headiness. I found out that after eating a meal take a little kosher pickle and you will find your acid reflux not bothering you at all. You can try a teas. of Raw Organic Apple Cidar Vinegar after every meal. I take 1/4 teas. and have no problems. I can eat anything and as much as I want with no reflux. I have Barrett's Asophegus and I'm 79 yrs old. If this works for you I would not tell your doctor because he will just laugh at you but it works and it is worth a try to get off of that medication. According to FDA omeprazole is poison and a little every day will give you death.
