There's no generic version of Singulair in the US yet... that will happen in January.  For now it's all just brand-name Singulair made by Merck.

Thanks Starflower.  Yes, I am in the U.S..   But I thought there were different kinds ?   Powder for kids ?   Chewable ?  Something ?

These are the available forms as far as I know:

•Singulair Oral Granules (ages 12 months to 5 years)
•Singulair Chewable Tablets 4mg (ages 2 to 5 years)
•Singulair Chewable Tablets 5mg (ages 6 to 14 years)
•Singulair Tablets 10mg (ages 15 and above)

Thank you Joan.   I finally broke down and looked it up.  It was the 4mg Oral Granule Packets I was thinking of.   If it is not too pricey, I may try those, and the 10mg tab to see which I like best.

Best,
Zippy
