This is a miracle drug for me. Without it I would not be here. I have been on this drug for at least 15 years I believe. If I forget to take it , I cannot breath the next day.

So much better than Singulair. I take it for asthma and sinus polyps since I have AERD. I've tried Singulair a couple times and my asthma and polyps come back quickly. I believe Accolate blocks different and more leukotrienes than Singulair.

I use to Wheeze all the time, cough all the time. Whether sitting up, standing, laying down. I use to wake up doing the same and having to use my rescue inhaler. All I can say is not any more. It is like the clock has turned back to before the symptoms came up.

I agree-this has been a miracle treatment for me. I had a few side effects for a short duration, but I've been taking it since 2009 and am able to lead a normal life. I hardly notice my breathing now, so when I am heading toward breathing problems I identify them better. I sleep better at night, too, so I'm not as fatigued during the day.

I switched to this medication from Singulair. It's been effective and I've had no side effects other than a lot more dollars left in my wallet.

This medication caused my tongue to swell and I have a rash all over my body. I will no longer be taking this medication, because, I do not need any medication that is going to trigger my severe allergenes.
