My daughter is 8 1/2 yrs old. She has been on Singulair, Advair 250, Zyrtec and Zantac for 1 1/2 years. While her asthma is very controlled, she is having side effects. She was a wonderful student and so happy. Within the last month she began having anxiety attacks. Small things that normally were no issue now make her cry. Within the last week, she cries anytime her mind is not occupied by tv, etc. Tonight she began shallow breathing while saying she was scared of monsters. I now must sleep & stay with her at all times. She cannot even go to school. This is a very smart , well adjusted child and I am certain 1 or a combination of the above medications have brought this on. Her other side effects were constipation, weight gain, stomache pain, blurry vision.
