My 7 year old son has been on and off singulair for a couple of years. He has been on it again for a month and we have noticed very aggressive behavior. He gets angry easily, nasty and into these rages where he actually is hitting me and slamming doors (even breaking the jam on his bedroom door!), just because he is not allowed to do something! After finding this site, I called the doctor(who of course did not call back yet) and took him off of the singulair. I am hoping the behavior gets better!

My 6 year old son has also been on and off of Singulair and every time we start it up he has horrible mood swingd, aggressive behavior, lack of appetite, etc.. I informed his pediatrician about this, she basically said: all 3 of her kids were on it & didn't have any problems, it's a safe drug & I shouldn't believe everything I read. .I am trying to get him off of it right away & see if he improves. Normally he is a very sweet, calm child.  I feel very stressed out.  Any comments/suggestions?Monica W
