Mgt: I would suggest calling your physician today, since this is not a usual side effect of the medication. If you would like to review your asthma plan a virtual appointment may be booked online.

No: Not a known side effect of the drug montelukast (singulair). Hair loss can be due to a multitude of reasons, common, and regresses on its own, if extensive, persists and / or other symptoms develop, please see her doctor, best wishes
