Re:zyrtec or claritin

Singulair works better for me, it blocks leukotrienes which has to do with
the inflammatory response to histamines. I breathe much better than when
on Zyrtec.

HI Sarah,

Did you or anyone else in the group hear the news about Singulair yet? I was sitting at the breakfast table this morning, making out my extenssive list of supplements that I need to replenish (wish I were a millionaire) and I was listening to talk radio. Well, the news segment came on and there is this story of how Singulair is now being investigated for causing depression and suicidal thoughts! I have NEVER heard this sort of thing attached to an allergy/asthma drug before. It is ALWAYS the anti-depressants. I am concerned becasue it is one of the medications prescribed to my 13 year old son who has bad bad allergies and asthma. Like this kid needs anything else on top of these and his OCD issues! Anyone heard this? Again, first time I'm hearing anything is today (Friday, 3/28).

Thanks,
Elena
