Apparently some people died after using Singulaire. Nobody ever told me there were potential serious side effects. Every few years I need to get a referral from a specialist so that my insurance will keep paying for it. I would have expected one of them to mention the risks and let me decide whether to take them, especially since there are alternative drugs that are considered safer. I doubt whether my GP is aware of the warning.
I've sent her a query asking what she thinks I should be doing.
Meanwhile I've read that some people take the drug in the morning in the hope that it won't disturb sleep. But if it has some negative effect on the brain, I'm not sure that accomplishes anything.
Truth of the matter is, if I can get along without a drug, I will.
