i took Singulair for one week. The first couple days, I had a head ache, sore throat, cough, and some other upper respiratory issues. I started to feel better, but I had to stay home from work and rest. About 5 days later, I took my singulair in the morning (I missed the night before). About 2 hours later I was sent home from work early due to nausea/diarrhea. I was in bed sick all of that day. I skipped the singulair that night and the next morning, and took it the following night. Again, 2 hours later I has severe diarrhea. I have been off Singulair for a day and a half and my diarrhea is gone. It is so weird, the whole 3 days I was off work, and calling out- I felt so depressed, like I did not want to go back to work, I was dreading it! BUT i love my job, and I have never felt like that before. I am really worried this medicine is what made me sick! I would not give this to anyone, and especially reading the things about what it does in children, I definitely believe this could happen!

I think this must be due to the Singulair, Just find if you are taking any drugs that interact with singulair also. You can find related info at http://www.internationaldrugmart.com/singulair.html

Please check your doctor too if it is very severe.

The FDA is conducting a safety reveiw of Singulair. Please report your adverse reactions as soon as you can. This is the link to the FDA online reporting site:

Thank you!
