Hi @shygiii5 I've never heard of such side effects of montelukast. My brother is on this drug and he has been getting quite a lot of headaches since he started it. His doctor warned him about this and he said he might also get abdominal pain and diarrhea which are common side effects but he never did, only migraines.

Hello, I have been taking Montelukast for a while now and I discovered by chance that it can have effects on the psyche.
I don't feel concerned or I'm not aware of it, who also takes it and has experienced side effects of this type.
Have a good day
