My son, now 10...has been on singular off and on, since I don't' ...
I am so sorry to hear about your son. I wrote about my 11 year old son, who seemed to be fueled by anger while on this medcine. After he started on the singulair again in March for allergies, he became so aggressive. The psychologist said maybe it was time for him to be medicated. After he hit me again, I took him to the police station, he didn't seem fazed. We were even going to go through family crisis. I didn't understand what was going on. When we stopped the medication, he stopped. It was that simple. I had to explain to him that this medicine was making him angry, I had to explain to his younger brother that his brother wasn't being bad. I felt like a tornado ripped through my home and that I had to deal with the aftermath. After two months, it all over. Thank goodness for this site and everyone contributing.
The crazy sleep patterns are the worst,and although things got better off the singulair for my son,we had to work on the sleep problems,it seems to disrupt there internal clock,and it also seems to give them unrestful sleep,off singulair you can see peaceful sleep ,although wrong times of day,it has been 3 months off for us now,and it is like it never happened.My son to was an honor student through 6 th grade in ap classes,thats when he had his first asthma attack,and was put on singulair,one year later he could not even step onto the school bus without a panic attack,ended up i had to home school him,he will be returning to public school in september,we are so hopeful,but can the years lost ever be replaced.I am so so furious,and Merck seems to have protection under the law,i fired my doctor for not listening,I told him you work for me not big pharm.Good luck just know you are not alone
