Thank you Rob, for posting your experience on this site. I am glad to hear that your daughter's doctor was aware that suicidal thinking and depression are possible side effects of SIngulair. Many doctors aren't! These adverse effects are not exclusive to adults. Children can and do have them. Spread the word!
This can be a horrible drug for children who can't communicate how they feel. Take your child off this drug and you should see a change quickly.
Be glad you took your daughter off as early as you did. My son was on it for 8 months and it was a nightmare!
