I am shocked and outraged at the "NEW" list of side effects that were attached to my newly refilled Singulair prescription. I am an adult and have been taking this medication for 3 years. I also know that I have not been happy in three years and every day I feel more and more hopeless and withdrawn. I have little interest in leaving my house, being with other people or anything else. Everything in life seems like an overwhelming task for me. I am filled with ideas about how to 'get away-far away'. I am a decent person, a wife and a mother of 3, but lately I would have done anything to be able to get a divorce and run. I have hated myself for these thoughts, which makes it all worse. I'm always reminding myself that these are people that I'm supposed to love! I ran out of my Singulair right before Thanksgiving and kept putting off refilling it, quite frankly, because I just didn't have the 'energy' to go to the store and pick it up. I did pick it up 2 days ago and that's when I noticed the new labels all over the bottle and was shocked when I read the description of the side effects. It was if they had been written about me. I have not taken any more of it and have now been off for more than a week and I feel like a human being again.

Are you outraged to find out that some of the "NEW" side effects are as old as 2 years.It speaks volumes that finally patient packets are getting updated .Please file your report with the FDA and join our fight for change at www.parentsforsafety.org
