"I have been taking it for a couple of months now with no side effects. It has helped my rhinitis and allergy symptoms tremendously. I was afraid of it too because of the bad press it got before they even prescribed it. I heard about it."

"I'm not noticing anything different since taking Singulair a month ago. I still have to use my inhaler 6-8 times a day. The good part is, I'm not noticing any side effects, either-it's as if I'm taking a placebo."

"I started taking this to help with long COVID-induced asthma/rhinitis (suffered from asthma as a child, but COVID exacerbated it) in addition to steroid inhalers. In terms of the asthma/rhinitis, it worked brilliantly. However, after about 10 days (10 mg per day taken in the evening), I developed severe dizziness/vertigo and headaches. Had to stop taking it, as I simply couldn't function."

"I have been taking this along with Nixar for more than two months. It works perfectly for my congestion and severe sinus, but when I stop it for just a day or two, my nightmare starts back - I'm kind of addicted to it. My doctor says to take it until you get the polyps removal operation/sinus surgery. Kind of lost and depressed - what to do?"

"I have taken this for 10 to 15 years and for me it's fantastic. No more asthma, runny stuffy nose, chest congestion. No weird dreams and zero depression, etc. like I've read in other reviews. Not for everyone, obviously. I always take it in the AM. I remember telling my doctor I never want to stop taking this. Changed insurance and didn't take it for a while, and it was like night and day. Immediately was back to the inhalers and hacking up goo every morning and coughing all the time. Went back on it, and in one week I was fine. For me, it's miraculous since it addresses all my symptoms, not just my asthma."

"Nothing had helped my allergies at all until I started taking Singulair. With Singulair, it's like my allergies don't even exist. This medication is a miracle pill."

"After three weeks of suffering, I tried Singulair and within 45 minutes, I started feeling good again. It stopped my post-nasal drip. No side effects yet. This is my fifth day using it."

"My 11-year-old daughter started taking this a week ago, and for the first time in her life, she is breathing through her nose. As a result, she's not waking up exhausted. Hallelujah!"

"I was prescribed 10 mgs of Singulair daily 3 weeks ago for allergic rhinitis and breathing issues I experience when I run. While the Singulair helped dry up the constant post-nasal drip, I have experienced a heavy chest and feel I have to exert more effort to take a deep breath. Also, when I ran, it did not seem to help. In fact, it seemed like it was harder to get a deep breath while running and taking Singulair. Unfortunately, within one day of stopping this medication, I am back to dealing with the post-nasal drip, but I did not like the feeling that I was on the verge of an asthma attack, so I stopped taking it. I will talk to my doctor to see if there is something else I can take."
