Default Singulair For MS??? (Leukotriene Receptor)

My allergies have been so bad this year and nothing seems to be working well. I was checking out Singulair and found that it has antiinflammatory properties, which makes sense as it is an antiasthmatic. So I did a little more checking and found that they have done a few studies regarding leukotrienes and MS. I thought this was pretty interesting and well worth sharing. Maybe this is my magic 2 for 1 ticket I've been looking for.

Despite them knowing about some of this for years, these two links are newer information (01/11 and 2010). I have never heard of this and thought it was interesting and thought of sharing it. (BTW - I am going to see my PCP about my allergies and finding different ways to take control of them as the meds I have been taking/trying don't seem to be working that well. I will be asking about Singulair as I know many allergy sufferers who have benefited greatly by taking it, including DD20 who had asthma when she was younger)
