Guest guest Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Is anyone having pancreatic problems? I had acute pancreatitus about 2 years ago-it was thought that the predisolone could have triggered it. Am having problems again and as its hormones and enzymes I am wondering if there is a link with the Samters. My doctor says not but then my doctor is not helping me at all and I must change to get some answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Have you been taking Singulair? If so, for how long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Hi I dont take Singulair I take Accolate which is in the family of zafirlukast. I have recently tried to take a break from this but my asthma quickly becomes unstable.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Once every 3 days? HMMM? Was this prescribed by your ENT? Why not everyday? Have you taken it everyday? Is it as effective every 3 days vs. every day for you? I have been on it everyday for the last 5 years. I have gone from having 10-15 polyps cut out every 3 months to not having any re-growth in the last 2 ½ years. I have eliminated taking nasonex from my diet of medicine and I was preparing to stop Singulair in March( 3yr anniversary of last surgery, if there was no poly regrowth) I always thought it had to be taken everyday to be effective?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Looks like Singulair worked for you .Have you also got your SOS? I've been on Singulair for about 4 weeks now (10 mg per day)and I am not sure if it is having any real effect. > > Once every 3 days? HMMM? Was this prescribed by your ENT? Why not everyday?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Singulair is supposed to be off patent in less than a year. That will have a huge affect on price.
