Every time we put something foreign into our bodies there is the potential for a problem. There are possible side effects to everything from Aspirin to Zanax. About as soon as this possible link to depression and I emphasize possible, there were parents already discussing seeing about a class action suit. Talk about jumping the gun. I don't know if there truly is a link or not. My daughter has been on Singulair for about a year and a half and it has been a life saver for her asthma. I realize that this is a forum for Rosacea but she is taking the drug in question. At this time Singulair has been the only thing that has kept her asthma under control. I thought I would one of the few people who said that they are not having an issue with this particular drug. There are so many variables when it comes to how each individual's body will respond to a medication. Sometimes I worry though that people look for problems where there aren't any. If someone has genuinely had a problem with Singulair, I hope that they find something that does work for them instead. It concerns me though that there may be some psychosomatic symptoms that crop up in those with over active imaginations though. The power of suggestion is amazing. That is how placebos function. It seems sometimes that we are very quick to come to conclusions before solid evidence is finished being gathered and studied. One time I was put on a drug that practically made me comatose but worked wonderfully for another patient. It wasn't the drug, it was my personal physiology. As a parent of a child currently taking Singulair, I am being watchful but I am not jumping ship.
