Singulair and Suicidal ThoughtsThe Food and Drug Administration is investigating a possible link between the use of the asthma medication Singulair.

The FDA has also received post-marketing reports from patients and patients’ family members of rapid mood changes, suicidal thinking and suicide.

Other drugs recently in the news for possible links to suicide include several anti-depressants and the stop-smoking drug Chantix.

    Oh my god. 8th grade.. when I started feeling depressed, mood swings, when my mind became hell for me. 8th grade when I started taking asthma medicine.. ASTHMA MEDICINE. Who would have thought that this could possibly be why? I went to hell and back.. and this could be why… Can I sue or something if it’s proven that it was the medicine and those side effects weren’t listed?

Have something to share?
