Good luck to you.keep us posted.The first clue i had when i took my son off was as simple as a twinkle in his eyes,i knew then i was on the right path,we had to learn to parent different as some of the issues were now learned behaviour,but 4 mnths off now i have my son back more and more each day

My son started having seizures (2 per day)a few months ago. Although no specialists or doctors made me aware of the possible side effects of Singulair, I discovered this site. I also mentioned that he seemed to have a slow growth rate - much slower than our other children. I took him off the Singulair immediately. He still had a few seizures during the first few weeks but they grew further apart and they seemed to be shorter in duration. I am ecstatic to say that he now hasn't had a seizure in 2 - 3 weeks and he has started growing!! He has grown 3 - 4 cm in 3 weeks and he is so much happier than before. He never really had temper tantrums or difficult behavior but he is developing into a more social, funny and fun loving child. Some of this certainely may be a coincidence, but I feel that it is very unlikely.
