My daughter just accidentally took a second dose of singulair (montelukast) 5mg within an hour of the first. should we be worried? she is 8.

No harm done: One extra dose of Singulair (montelukast) should have no harmful side effects. Singulair (montelukast) has a wide safety margin so your daughter should have no ill effects. But it is a good opportunity for you to discuss the importance of proper dosing and the possible serious effects of taking too many pills or taking the wrong medication. She is old enough.
