Singulair and damages

My brother is 12 years old he's been taking singular since he was 7 it has been a nightmare!! First he had all this mood swings,depression, weight gain,he was diagnosed with tourett's syndrome(twitching and tics) lately they got worst he started having bad dreams, an ulcer, and even thoughts of suicide, he tells my mom that he thinks we would be better if he was dead my mom took him to the doctor and doctor said he could have Bipolar disorder. Three months ago my 4 year old started taking it too for allergies and started having mood swings, behavior problems at school, bitting and hitting people which he didn't do before After that me and my mom started wondering if it was cause of the medication and started doing some research onlene and came upon this site and found out they are not the only one's having this side effects. I hope my story helps others because we have been through a nightmare with this medicine and i hope they could take it of the market. it has been a week since they got off and changes are noticable i just hope they are no permanent damages to my little brother that we love with all of our hearts

I have been making inquires as to how and if the fda will conduct investigations in to permanent damage left from this drug.Although on taking my son off this drug i saw a 90% improvement,i am still missing the final piece,is it that he lost 3 years to this drug or did it do damage that cannot be fixed,we as parents need to know.The FDA responded to my letter,they said if they see a trend in reports from medwatch,it may prompt an investigation .I am asking all who still have missing pieces to file a report.What has happened is a tragedy,we need to explore ever option for continued success for our childrens future.Good Luck to all,Keep Fighting

I'm seeing some posts from parents who say their children have returned to normal after discontinuing the use of this medication. However, there seem to be a lot of diagnosed "ADHD" or "BIPOLAR" conditions. Are your children really returned to normal? Or have they been diagnosed with a psychological issue and are receiving treatment? There seems to be a connection here, even after discontinued use, especially male adolescents. Any thoughts?? The increase in cases of ADD, ADHD, AUTISM, etc has been multiplying at a very disturbing rate in the last 10 years. I'm thinking definite connection to the "new" breed of "receptor blockers". What is it triggering? Any thoughts out there? Lets post anyone with similar cases and see how many are out there.
