Along with uncharacteristic depression from using singulair for only a few months- I experienced ( and still now, after 1 week prior to ending my daily dosage) terrible lower calf cramps I have never experienced before. Not only do I get quick searing pains in my legs at night, but my calf muscles are very sore whenever participating in brisk physically activity. I hope these side effects will terminate shortly- because for an athletic thirteen year old high school freshman, depression, lack of energy and physical pains are not making the beginning of young adulthood a very enjoyable experience

Please report these side effects to the FDA and to Merck. They have to know how this medication is affecting people. Stay off of it and you should eventually see the side effects lessen. Good luck!

Thanks for speaking out. Merck has to be crapping their pants realizing how many people have problems with singulair and how it's going to affect sales. Now doctors need to wake up and admit their can be serious issues with singulair and start taking a more active role in HELPING their patients.
