How dangerous is asthma medicine for the brain?
The asthma drug Singulair, sold as montelukast, may be dangerous to the brain, the Food and Drug Administration told a meeting of the American College of Toxicology in Austin, Texas on Nov. 20, according to Reuters.
According to Jessica Oliphant, deputy director of the FDA’s National Center for Toxicological Research, laboratory tests showed that the drug has significant interactions with several brain receptors. However, research does not show whether the Bond drug has harmful side effects. Earlier research had also found that the drugs went into the brains of rats. However, Oliphant said more data is needed to confirm how the drug accumulates in the nervous system.
Singulair is sold by Merck & Co. It is a prescription medicine, launched in 1998. According to the Cleveland Clinic, this medication is used to prevent and treat asthma and allergy symptoms by reducing inflammation in the airways and making breathing easier.
Singulair is sold under other names such as montelukastna, montelukast, montelukast sodium. According to Reuters, early advertisements for the drug said it had side effects. It has been compared to a sugar pill, but more than two decades later, the drug has been linked to mental health problems in patients for whom it is prescribed.
