http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023 (A divorced father) My son has been on Singulair now 5 years and I am in the middle of fighting to get him off.

Don't doubt your "father instinct"! Find a way to get your son off Singulair. Our daughter's allergy/asthma situation sounds similar. We ended up putting her on Claritin (lowest http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7747 Tue, 29 Apr 2008 16:02:07 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7748 My son has the same asthmatic episodes as your son. Your son definitely needs to have allergy testing as sometimes just eliminating allergens can help tremendously. It sounds like your ex may be using this as something to cross you with which is unhealth http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7748 Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:04:23 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7759 Take your son off Singulair...there are alternatives.

For 2 years her personality changed, she was self-destructive, etc. When this story broke I told my daughter9 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7760 Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:40:50 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7761 this is a fight worth fighting. keep doing what you can to get him off. check out all of our stories on here. the symptoms you describe are in line with everything our children have experienced--the number of years on singulair seems largely irrelevant. so http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7761 Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:50:44 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/30023?item=7764 I am sorry to hear that your son is suffering from this horrible medicine. My 10 year old has been on it for 6 years and until recently wouldn't do anything new for fear.
