monteluekast (singulair) is an inhibitor of one particular hormone of the immune system that keeps inflammation going. In general, you don't need to take it all the time. BUT, most people who are using it (pollen allergy, asthmatics) have an inflammation that starts anew every day. If they stop the drug, the whole process restarts. The monteleukast stays around for only about 1 day.
