The only side effects I had was hot flashes

This drug has saved my life. I have had this disease for 45 years. In and out of hospitals with intestinal agony for years. In 1994 I finally gave in to having surgery - bowel resection. After that I could finally eat. I was pain free til I got a rectal fistula in '02 that would not heal. I had my first remicade treatment Dec. 02, and the fistula healed within 1 week. I've had infusions every 8 weeks since and i've had no outbreaks. But I think this unusual itching and leg twitching might be side effects. Getting rid of Crohn's symptoms is worth it.

first day i ever took it the next day i got really sick and shaky but after that i felt amazing my skin was so clear and at first yes you do have some bad side effects like being more moody and etc i gained 5 lbs within the 8 monts ive been on it

On top of the urine issue - I found that this medication took awhile to calm myMigraine. I have returned to using Relpax which did not give me side effects at all but insurance had denied me due to cost. However a generic version is now available.

My son was on and off Singular for several years for his seasonal allergies. We finally realized that he has always been a very strong willed child, but whenever he was taking Sin gular he became very aggressive. We refused to put him on this medication again. It did help his allergies, but was not worth the side effects! When I told our pediatrician he was not aware of this side effect. He went and checked his medicine book and found that increased aggressiveness WAS a side effect.
