RE: inhalation/consumption ... depends on the person and the allergy. I have
an anaphylactic response either way, often faster and worse with inhalation
than with consumption, but no guarantees. But then, if I get it on my skin,
I look like I got into some poison ivy, too! Apparently it does the same
basic thing in my lungs if I breathe it in. But, every person is different.
Re: 2 5-mg chewable Singulair ... yep, that's what I take! :)
I'm very interested to know I'm not the only one. How common is a reaction
to the pharmaceutical grade lactose in medicines???
Thank you for replying!

Note that inhaling lactose might elicit responses differently than
eating it. I tend to think the latter could be more risky. No proof, though.
Also note that each form of a medication can be formulated
differently. Those of us who have trouble with the lactose in the 10
mg Singular tablets (adult strength) can change to 2- 5mg children's
chewables, which (currently) are not formulated with lactose.
