Singulair (montelukast) for Asthma -- Maintenance: Singulair has been a life saver for me. I am a newly diagnosed asthmatic which had become debilitating. I was put on a course of prednisolone to relieve symptoms, then doctor tried to control asthma with inhalers. Couldn't get under control with only the inhalers so was prescribed Singulair. It is amazing, I hardly use my reliever. Before I was using anything up to 40 times a day. Hayfever symptoms reduced also. Able to run again, I'd reached the point where I could hardly walk never mind run. Now I'm starting to get my life back.

Singulair (montelukast) for Asthma -- Maintenance: With Singulair I don't have to take any inhalers although my doctor tells me I should have them close by just in case. I haven't had to use a rescue inhaler for over 2 years. I don't need a steriod inhaler either. I had an anaphylatic reaction from allergy shots, so oral medicines are the way to go for me. Now I only have to take Allegra and Singulair and I am virtually symptom free after years of frustration and near death.

Singulair (montelukast) for Hay Fever: After three weeks of suffering, tried Singulair and within 45 minutes started feeling good again. It stopped my post nasal drip. No sides effects yet. This is my fifth day using it.
