DD was perscribed singulair for her allergies. The Dr said to watch for behavioral side effects and after googling it seems like the side effects can change mood, etc. does anyone have any experience with their LO on singulair?

We used singulair for a fe months and never noticed any side effects.

I suppose they're very rare, but those side effects sound really scary! No experience with it, really - my husband was prescribed this for possible allergies, and when we read the sheet that came with the meds I begged him not to take it and find something OTC instead. He ended up not taking allergy meds at all because the problem turned out to be something else.
Your doctor might be able to suggest alternatives that are safe for a toddler and don't have the potential for mood changes, it's probably worth asking!

Does she have asthma as well? Singular is great in people with allergies and asthma but if it's allergies alone there are other first line treatments. What has she tried so far?
