Montelukast has not been universally discontinued, but there have been concerns and warnings issued about its use due to potential neuropsychiatric side effects, including mood changes and suicidal thoughts. These concerns led to updated labeling and recommendations to use it with caution, particularly in patients with a history of mental health issues. Some healthcare providers might choose to discontinue it in specific cases where the risks outweigh the benefits.
