My son is 7 years old and was put on singulair for his asthma and allergies, my daughter who is 10, had been on it for over 2 years. My son started experiencing, night terrors, out burst of crying, difficult to make decisions. Anxiety attacks, panic attacks, did not want to go to school. After seeing his Doctor it was suggested that we pull him off the medicine. We started noticing changes within a few weeks. Please watch your child closely if on this drug. My daughter did not have side effects however we have taken her off this medicine also. I would really be careful with this drug. Our family was in complete terror, watching your child struggling like this. USE CAUTION, IF YOU DECIDE TO TAKE THIS MEDICINE....

Thank God your doctor listened to you,and gave you great advice.3 years ago when my son was suffering with the same side effects as your son,singulair side effects were never bought into the scenerio.We spent countless hours in therapy,countless anti depressants a 10 day hospital stay for depression,nothing ever worked,well how could it as long as i was still feeding him this poison,on one doctors visit as i cried and begged for help to save the life of my child,i was told to purchase the book "Dont sweat the small stuff".Years have gone by now,and i figured out the root of his problem,thanks to Kate going public with her story,The years my son lost can never be gotten back,the thousands of dollars spent gone forever,but i am so grateful it is over.Speak out file your report to the FDA,make your doctor file,that it what is going to continue to save children in the future,continued good luck join our fight
