"I was prescribed 10 mgs of Singulair daily 3 weeks ago for allergic rhinitis & breathing issues I experience when I run. While the Singulair helped dry up the constant post nasal drip, I have experienced a heavy chest & 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."

"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 (10mg 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 it for a couple of months now with NO side affects. 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 have been taking this along with Nixar for more than two months. It works perfect 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'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)"
