I am a 35 year old male, college educated, professional. I started on the Singulair for Asthma three months ago. At first I thought this was a miracle drug, making my Asthma almost disappear. After 3 weeks I noticed a sense of paranoia, always wondering if persons were speaking about me, how my co workers perceived me, worried about my wifes perception of me, my bosses opinion of me, almost totally unbearable. This carried on until I read this sight. I have been off the drug for almost two weeks, I am beginning to feel better now. Thank you all for the information. To any parent that has a child on this drug: take them of it! As an adult I was going crazy, can't imagine how a child would be.

Dear Howard, just like to let you know that you may be in the 10% category who suffer from the adverse side effects of Singulair, but such is the ignorance of educated men like yourself who take what is given by a physician and swallow it down with a smile, I'm sure you would be very familiar with the saying knowledge is power, so empower yourself and read up on the side effects of any other drug that you may be taking. Further more I would suggest to you to ask your doctor about Symbicort, its only one inhalation twice a day(an oral steroid) very potent and powerful with an excellent safety profile, you normlly taper that drug down to one dose a day or when you need it. Next time Sir College Educated Professional, report the event to the drug and safty of the company or the FDA.
