Guest guest Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Bill and all: " I also notice intense dreams but I havent experienced mood swings as reported in some responses in this forum " In my experience with allergic reactions intense dreams and abrupt mood swings are signs of allergy to a medication. My whole immediate family (my mother, sister and me) are allergic to codiene. I end up with intense nightmares, abrupt mood swings, itching, intense irratiblity and a nasty temper when I had taken it, my mom's the same way save that she has an extra symptom from it, vomiting. I suggest those of you who are having symptoms like these with the Singulair (including your 2.5 yr old) talk to your doctor about more information on allergic reactions to Singulair. With Singulair intese shaking or uncontrollable shaking and disorientation is also a sign that too much has been taken along with normal medications. A girlfriend of mine who had severe asthma took too much once because she just couldn't breathe, I had to rush her to the hospital. While her boyfriend was waiting downstairs for the medics I was sitting with her and I swear she was almost dying because she kept calling to her dead grandmother and passing in and out of consciousness. I litterally had to slap her in the face to keep her awake and alive. Most scary thing that ever happened to me. Sheal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 I've taken this a month ago with no problem. The brand name is spelled with a number: S1ngulair. It says it treats asthma by " blocking subtances in your lungs called leukotrienes that cause narrowing and inflammation of airways " . I'm still taking it once a day before bed time.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Earlier today, I spoke via the telephone to a freind of mine that also takes Singulair from San Diego, CA regarding the intense dreams that I was experiencing. Amazingly, she said although shes only been taking the drug for a month she also has experienced nightmares. I didnt get a chance to ask to what degree but I thought you would want to know.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Sheal, Now that's about the scary's thing I've heard in a long time. I'll be sure not to ever overdose on the Singulair Candidly, I hate the idea of taking any medicine but its a catch 22.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Hmmm.........Interesting. We have the same problem with our son who is 3 1/2. He has been on Singulair for almost 2 years now. I never considered that could be the cause! _____________________________________________________________Click to get 150,000 in student loans and find the lowest rates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 The dye alone would send my son off the walls!! We take 8mgs of the powder packets (each packet is 4mgs) 1st thing in the AM. It tastes great and my son takes it right off of a spoon. By far the easiest thing I give him. It took several months to work up to this amount. Aspartame has a whole host of problems associated with it. The pilots association sent out a warning several years ago to warn pilots against drinking diet soda with Aspartame in it because it was causing seizure disorders. Pilots were loosing their licenses. It also was originally invented as an ant killer. Another present from Rumsfeld. Too many negatives to list. - From: mb12 valtrex [mailto:mb12 valtrex ] On Behalf Of Maurine Meleck Sent: Thursday, June 28, 2007 4:21 PM To: mb12 valtrex Subject: Re: Re: Singulair aspartame is bad for everyone-you needs to switch over to the dye free also marley9697 <marley9697> wrote: Actually I am using the chewable but he does not chew it he swallows it.
