I think I have issues with taking Montelukast but not sure. Have a sensitive stomach so at times I do have some issues with rumbling in stomach and gas but is only last a day. Since I went on Montelukast for sinus issues my stomach started with just a little problem and now it is a daily problem my primary gave me pantopraxole for stromach which helps but I think the Montelukast does irradiate my stomach some. Anyone else have that happen. Thanks

The only issue had with Montelukast was disturbed sleep due to terrible dreams.

I think stomach issues are a possible side effect of montelukast - I guess it also depends how long you’ve been on them maybe? I’ve been having really bad headaches but I’m going to give it a bit longer to see if it wears off/is something else! If you’re worried the best think to do would be to talk to your doctor xx

Yes Dr. said I could stop anytime I wanted so I did 5 days now and my stomach is better. I was useing it for sinus problems. If u use it for Asthma then I am sure it is harder to get off it. Thanks
