I have been taking montelukast, generic for Singular, 1 tablet daily, for slightly less than a month. I also use Advair for asthma, which I have had for many years. Within the past week I have begun having severe, unrelenting laryngitis and within the past 3 days an unbearable itching and tingling in my left wrist and hand. I am also very tired and sleepy and have no energy. Could these be side effects of the montelukast? ## Hello, Shari! How are you? The laryngitis and fatigue are known side effects, but I'm not finding anything about the itching and tingling. Is there a visible rash, at all? Do you have topical skin allergies? ## About using singular and Advair. The Advair is responsible for my cramping spasms. I too ha e nu.bness in hand. I now have periphial nerve damage. It see...

I am taking montelukast zykast 10mg/5mg tablet every night as prescribed by my doctor to treat my asthma. Now, is it ok if I will let my 7 year old daughter take it because I forgot to buy her chewable tablet lately when I went to the market and it's too late for me to find out that she already consumed her chewy tabs which I bought last week and i'm worried because she's been coughing now. So I guess giving a half of this tablet is my option. Is it fine? Please help!! ## Hi since my teenage years i am taking zykast as my doctor prescribed it to me to prevent asthma. And now i just gave birth 3 months ago and i am breastfeeding. Is it okay to continue taking this tablet?

Hi all I have been taking Montelukast for the past 7 months and have noted that I now never ever get bitten by mosquitos. This is a very welcome side effect! ## Hello, David! How are you? While this isn't a listed side effect, though I'm sure that many would also welcome such an occurrence, it does make sense. Many medications can change your blood and sweat, which may make them unappealing to such insects. It's just how they react with your body chemistry. My dad was always well known to attack crazy numbers of mosquitoes and, if he were still with us, I'd gladly pass this information on to him to save him some miserable hours of itching. The typical side effects, as listed by the U.S. FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and dry mouth. Has anyone els...

His first pediatrician prescribed him 1 nebule Salbutamol (Ventolin) and 1/2 nebule Budesonide (Asmavent) every 4 hours, Prednisone (Prolix) 2.5ml 2x a day, Pocaterol HCl (Meptin) 2.5ml 3x a day and Cefixime (Tergecef) 1.5ml 2x a day.

I am having sever allergic issues. I get incessant cough due to sore throat. Can I take cetrizine in morning and montair FX in night. Or it is not safe to do so. ## I didn't find any problems or interactions listed, but it is always best to double check to be sure. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, drowsiness and dry mouth. Has your doctor prescribed them both?

I tried Singulair but it caused me extremely dry mouth, so much so that despite the medication's benefits I don't know if I want to continue using it. Does this side effect of dry mouth wear off with continued use of Singulair? If so, after how long? ## Hello, Shira! How are you? Yes, side effects are usually transient and taper off in severity, then go away entirely, once your body gets used to a medication. It usually takes about 4 to 5 weeks. Other typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly including headache, dizziness, joint pain, sweating and constipation. Sometimes sucking on mints or candies can help, or regularly sipping some water. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks for your reply, I do have some other questions: Can the benefits of Singula...

I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM ALLERGY ON MY FACE FOR WHICH I HAVE BEEN GIVEN MOTRE-L TABLETS. I HAVE ALREADY DONE A COURSE OF 10 DAYS AND STILL NO RESPONSE IS VISIBLE AND NOW MY DOCTOR HAS GIVEN ME IT FOR NEXT TEN DAYS. OTHER THAN THIS I WAS RECOMMENDED BELAR-FORTE FOR 2 DAYS . IT HELPED TO A CERTAIN EXTENT BUT MY ALLERGY REAPPEARED AFTER THAT.PLEASE HELP ## Hi, Swati! Do you have any idea what's causing the allergy? Figuring that out and eliminating the culprit would be the best solution. It must be something that you became exposed to around the time of the first reaction and keep being exposed to. Have you been eating or drinking anything new? Are you using a new soap or hygiene product?
