Singulair--

I know this is random. Just started Singulair 10 days ago and the past day or so I have had an increased heart rate and palpitations.

Wondering if any of you have ever had a similar problem with this med?

You need to contact your doctor immediately. This could be a very serious side effect.

I've been on Singulair for over 5 years. I agree. NOT NORMAL. Call your doc today. Good luck with that.

Not that I noticed but I have to use my inhaler a lot less so if I am getting them at least I can breath with open lungs for a change.

Palpitations is listed on the singulair website, but you need to contact your doctor, or at least your pharmacy, as soon as possible

I had to go off of it because I thought I was going to go into cardiac arrest (I have numeruous heart problems). So NO, it's not normal.

I've already decided to not take it anymore, I tried contacting my doctor and he is not there.

Thank you, at least I know I'm right to be paranoid, then.

Contact your pharmacist if you cannot get a hold of your doctor. You want to make sure that there hasnt been any damage done
