Yes: I highly recommend that immunizations be continued on schedule for a child with asthma/allergies while on Singulair (montelukast) or other asthma maintenance medication, but would postpone immunizations if having an asthma flare or is on oral steroids.

Yes: Medications in general will not alter the benefit gained from vaccines.The one clear exception is any oral/injected steroid used at doses that treat inflammatory diseases.
