Hi there! It is highly unlikely that the sleep apnea was caused by singulair. Many asthma sufferers have sleep apnea as well. There were also reports that Singulair showed significant improval in people with asthma and breathing problems. However, SIngulair could have caused these side effects: fatigue, weak upper arms, cramping in the upper thighs, bad dreams, etc

I doubt it but I too have sleep apnea and am on singulair. It is more likely caused by his weight, the way his jaw or tongue fall when sleeping or other reasons but who knows....
