"This medication has helped me so much.

Over the last few years my sweating became really excessive on my face and neck. My neck just gushed swest. All areas of my life were affected, and I was humiliated on a daily basis.

I  heard about an oral medication for hyperhidrosis, so I went online to do some research and I learned about oxybutynin, then went to the doctor who gave me a prescription for 5mg 2x daily. I think it took 2 or 3 days to see a difference, and it was a big difference. I was literally overjoyed. I don't mind the side effects (dry mouth and drowsiness), but for me the oxybutynin does not take the sweating completely away. I'm now in 10 mg 2x daily. I also notice it stops working about halfway through my day."


"My daughter is 7 yrs and she had been taken Singular for 4 yrs It worked great. But for the last 3 months my daughter started have extreme anxiety issue over little things to the point where she wasn't herself. Saying things like nobody loves me, I am a bad kid,  you should just get rid of me. she was having tantrums, outbursts of disruptive behavior. major mood swings. Crying hysterically at night. I researched and researched in what was causing this behavior and came across side effects of her meds and it was worth a try even though it could alter her health but her mental health I was way more concerned about. By the 5th day of her being off on the meds she was back to her normal loving and positive self.I will never give it to her again"


"I have been on this Medicine for exactly 7 days and have lost 7 lbs...I haven't had any side effects everyone talks about. I heard everyone complains about being sick and I am wondering if they have quit Drinking while on this pill?

I have cut my calories down.  I am also a part of the CONTRAVE Scale down program.

they sent me a scale that using WIFI to tell them my weight everyday. Being Accountable is a good thing.

I dont understand how this pill works but it does its magic on me and I am VERY HAPPY !!

Anyways everyone dont give up."


"A HORRIBLE DRUG. BEWARE I was diagnosed with pneumonia one week ago at the local emergency room. The ER doctor gave me 1 pill of Levaquin and I took 2 more from the pharmacy.  I took a total of 3  500 MG pills that gave me constant, deep, sore pain in my arms from my shoulders to my elbows. The pain was so bad on day 3 that I could hardly drive a car, put on a seatbelt, put on a shirt or turn on a light switch. I stopped taking the drug and went to my family doctor for a different antibiotic. Neither the ER doctor or the family doctor knew anything about muscle and tendon problems. I'm really angry about this. I am over 60 with no big health problems and don't appreciate being poisoned."


"I am a research scientist and am very knowledgeable on insulin devices and diabetes
1. I got diarrhea a lot and for an extended time

2. About 12% of the pens shipped do not work. ExpressScripts refuses to replace defective pens.

3. My A1c levels began to climb linearly as soon as this drug replaced original therapy; i.e. Drug failure."


"I have taken Adderall XR for almost 10 years. I have taken the Generic amphetamine salt mix depending on what the pharmacy had in stock. Never had an issue with either one. Then one day I go pick up my prescription and my pills look funny... they are now a yellowish white color I took them for 2 months and they just weren't working. These need to go back in front of the FDA and be Reno!!! They are not by any means the same!!! I looked up the inactive ingredients on this pill and the main difference that stands out is the fact that it has Shellac in it. Shellac is something that you paint your finger nails with... I could not find the active ingredients but I’m sure they are the same as name brand."


"Worked brilliantly, I cut down my fat intake a week before starting them & continued this whilst on them, I lost 10lb in my first 2 weeks!! Really really pleased with the result & have just ordered my second months supply. You HAVE to reduce you fat intake to stop any unpleasant side effects, I'm now at the point where I don't want to eat high levels of fat because I don't want to suffer the consequences!!!

Worked for me!!!"


"I've been taking them for over a week now and my  symptoms have just stayed the same and there more discharge then b4 is this meant to happen"


"It helped a little with the pain, not a whole lot though."


"I've recently got my second implant inserted. I loved the first one. It hurt going in but to not worry about buying and taking birth control for 3 years was worth it to me. I was also one of the lucky ones who didn't have a period for two years. Then the final year I did start having a period once a month. It lasted about 4 days but I was pretty sick those 4 days. I'VE gained a little bit of weight and my acne has been pretty bad, but it was the same as other birth controls. Now this second one has given me extreme moodiness, hot sweats and cravings. Still no period so far but I feel like a bat outta hell lately. I didn't experience this with the first one. I just had it done a few weeks ago though. All this said, I like the implant for me"


"I was intubated for general anesthesia for an outpatient endoscopic procedure on 7-3-2017. By next morning, I felt like I'd been hit by a Mack truck, extreme pain in every muscle. I laid in bed for an hour trying to figure the least painful way to get out of bed. I was in so much pain my husband took me to the Emergency Room and a blood test showed my potassium levels (K) were more than double what is normal which they said indicated an adverse reaction to the succhinylcholine I was given. An I.V. of dilaudin offered no pain relief. I normally NEVER use any pain meds, but used Percocet alternating with Ibuprofen for 3 days before I started to feel more normal again. I will never willingly allow succhinylcholine to be used on me again!"


"I was diagnosed with seizures due to a car accident in 1996. I was 16 yrs old. I am now 29 yrs old. I have been on many medications for my seizures and I've noticed that levetiracetam works best for me. I was on Dilantin for a few years but the seizures just got worse."


"Afrin is easy to use and effective, it helps me breath again. All you have to do to open it is push and turn, I do not understand why these people think it is hard to open."


"Finally, after a year and a half of trying 16 other brands of blood pressure medicines, my doctor prescribed Tekturna HCT.  It works.  I feel great.  I have to take a potassium supplement to prevent leg cramps, but all in all it's the best one I've tried - with no adverse side effects."


"I decided to try Zoloft after seeing the great reviews online for panic disorder and its overwhelming support for it. I have been on 75mg Zoloft for 5 weeks and cant say it has helped at all, in fact I'm having more panic attacks than usual on it. I also can't get to sleep and feel a depressing numbness throughout the day. I am prepared to accept that maybe I need a higher dose or need to wait longer but I highly doubt it, I feel certain in saying that this medication does not work at all for me. PEACE."


"Did NOT want to take meds, but I am so glad I finally hit rock bottom and decided Zoloft was an option worth considering. Seriously, it has completely changed my life. As long as you have a reputable therapist/doctor giving you the meds, there should be no major issues. Had some problems with sleep at first, but I started taking melatonin at night and now it's all good."


"Farxiga is effective.  It has helped my numbers and lost approx. 10 lbs over a year. The only problem is the excessive thirst and frequent urination.  I work and travel a lot so this really impacts my quality of life.  I would recommend this medication for someone who stays home most of the time not for someone on the go.  I will ask my dr to change my med at my next appt."


"Breo has been nothing short of amazing. I have severe dog and cat allergy. It primarily affected my breathing. Not just when I was around them but for at least a week after every exposure. This made my relationship with my dog loving in law's strained. Simply because I had to leave within an hour of a visit and take their daughter with me.

In comes Breo , I saw the ad on TV for a free trial, asked the doctor, he said my insurance didn't cover it, told him about the coupon, he approved.

Deep breathing. DEEP BREATHING! I SLEPT AT MY IN LAWS HOME FOR 3 DAYS. NO PROBLEM!!!!

CON: you really have to wash your mouth out thoroughly after every use. I've had more canker sores/popped pimple in there than ever.

Worth it."


"Serzone is the only one that has helped me and I've never had any liver problems that are associated with it. It makes me feel better right away. Really though I am certifiably depressed and it works. If nothing else works then try this. If the ones you are on work, then by all means don't, thanks."


"I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome when I was 11 years old. I had tried a couple of medications before this one that didn't help too much. Although this medication helped tremendously, the side effects were too much. My appetite greatly increased on top of gaining weight from the medication itself. I had no energy and had gained 100 pounds within a year. I am now 25 years old and this medication changed my relationship with food. I recently had bypass surgery due to overeating throughout my life as well as an inability to lose enough weight trying methods like healthy diet and exercise. Although this medication is helpful treating the tics, please use with caution."


"Okay, if you are about to go get the Skyla..STOP READING THIS WEBSITE. I'm 18 years old and I got the Skyla today. But before I got it I read other people's experiences on this website and got so scared I cried 3 times. The truth is , mine didn't really hurt at all . I felt one slight pinch and that's it . Of course I felt a little discomfort but I was fine ! Afterwards I was walking around like normal. The truth is everyone's bodies take to it differently , but don't scared yourself by reading about it and instead just go in there telling yourself you're a boss ass bitch and you can handle it (like I did) mine lasted about 10 minutes and I would do it again in a heartbeat"


"Eliminated fever and sweating but still coughing and maintaining new mucous in sinuses after 4 days.  Seems to be better for prostitis and oral ulcers."


"I was diagnosed with ADHD unexpectedly when I started going to a counseling center a couple months ago, after I got in trouble for bringing marijuana to school. I was also diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety. I am 15 and this all came as one big unexpected shock to me. I felt useless and pathetic knowing this. I was put on medication for all of the mental disorders, including Adderall. I have always been a good student, but now I am actually able to focus in school and now, I'm excited about going to classes and doing homework. I actually feel like I'm worth something for once."


"I'm on my 2nd shot right now. My first dose was scary. My body reacted in the worst ways. My blood sugar was dropping (I don't have any issues w that) I felt dizzy, And hot i couldn't stop the constant Hot flashes. I experienced some of the worst mood swings EVER freaking out & feeling out of control of my body and emotions. Even my family was telling me to stay away from them. BUT After the 2-3 week adjustent It was amazing..no problems.. I bloated a little for about a week before I got my next dose. after the next dose I adjusted for a week and I've been good to go!! If you can get through hell week it's worth the no periods."


"I have been using this drug for acne for 3 weeks and it has not helped my acne. I gave it three stars because it has no bad side effects."


"Took Ambien for years but noticed increased short term memory problems, so I switched to Belsomra. Not the same kind of sleep you experience with Ambien. Took about 10 days for me to get used to this one because of the difference. It more mimics how you used to feel when you naturally got sleepy, not a dopey kind of sleep. Also, if you don't sleep because you're an extremely anxious person, you will not find this one as effective. I don't sleep as sound on this one if I have a lot on my mind, worrisome things, versus I just can't sleep because I'm wondering if, for example, Tesla's ideas really will work :)"


"Started taking Bydureon 6 weeks ago.  The first 4 weeks, blood sugars were lower by 15-25 points, no weight loss but happy with BS results.  Week 5, began to be very nauseous on and off, being around food or cooking for  family difficult.  Could only eat bland, room temp/cold foods like half a bagel, granola bar, cereal, bananas.  Everything else made me sick.  Week 6, nausea much worse without stopping, could not tolerate smell/sight of food, especially meat.  Weekend trip with family was ruined because I could not be in any restaurants.  Vomited several times.  Finally called my doctor and he took me off of it.  Waiting to get it all out of my system.  Will look for alternative drug."


"I have been taken Lutera for about a year now so far it helps me a lot. It makes my period lighter and the cramps aren't that bad. Only thing that sucks is how tender your breasts get. But beside that is a really good birth control."


"I started latuda 11 months ago (20mg, then 40, now 60), and I think all it does is trigger hypomanic episodes with dose increases and when those end I end up feeling more depressed than ever. The depressive episodes on latuda have been some of my worst in over three years, and the hypomanic episodes seem to last longer than usual. I also get ridiculously restless, having trouble falling asleep, but then having trouble waking up (I sleep through alarms for over an hour). I thought I found the drug for me, but I'll be seeing my psychiatrist soon to switch. At least it worked well for awhile?"


"I use Depakote 500 mg twice daily, and felt improvement in the first 10 days, my mood is stable and my severe anxiety has disappeared. Also I see improvement in OCD and I now can better focus. I'm also on Seroquel 100mg twice daily."


"My PCP gave me a trial and an RX for Saxenda. I went to fill the script, but, unfortunately, my insurance doesn't cover it. I can't pay $800 a month even with the coupon. However, I am using the trial, and absolutely love Saxenda. I have had no side effects, it really helps me with hunger,  helps with cravings , overall, helps me to eat less. I am so sad I cannot continue with this medication for my weight loss, but I definitely recommend this product."


"I bought this cream thinking that it would be a simple way to get rid of my slight YI.. But it amplified the pain more than I ever imagined it would. It started burning just a few minutes after inserting the tube and the pain of it was unbearable. I tried to wait it out for awhile just in case the pain would go away. I thought the burning could possibly be part of the healing process but it was way too severe for that. I had to shower and rinse and the burning has become more bare able but is still there 2 hours later."


"Colon Cancer forced removal of entire colon except 7.5 cm at rectum. J-Pouch constructed from Small Intestine to work as colon but small storage means frequent diarrhea. Drs. prescribed 1.0 ml Tincture 3 times a day to slow this.
Four years later taking 0.5 ml 3 times daily. This treatment very successful. Side effects now beginning to show on legs and ankles in form of circulatory (vein) collapses.
So short term, awesome medicine. Long term...we shall see."


"This sleep aid is amazing. The only "complaint" I have is that sometimes wears off if you hold off too long. Take it, give it one hour, you'll be ready to be out. I haven't had any side effects."


"Didn't see results, I am a young baseball pitcher and lately my elbow has been killing even days after games.

Doctor prescribed me 500mg Naproxen EC and I find I have no results and my elbow is still inflamed, feels like carpel tunnel in my elbow still"


"So, I used to have pretty debilitating anxiety. When I finally went to my doctor, he diagnosed me with a panic disorder and gave me clonazopam. Like any other drug of this sort, how responsible you are with medicine should determine if you take this or not. He gave to to me and told me to take it once at night when I went to bed, and then as needed if I was having a panic attack. This made me a little bit drowsy in the morning, so I stopped taking it at night and switched to just as needed which he said was fine. I have 1mg tablets, and take 1/2 at a time. I TRULY TAKE THIS AS NEEDED, and have never needed to increase my dose. At sight of a panic attack (maybe 3x a month now, used to be everyday) I take one, and it goes away."


"Asthma, improved, however the loss of my hair by almost 30% and effect in my voice by creating hoarseness, made me to stop the usage of the SYMBICORT."


"I just started taking this drug about 3 weeks ago.  The first week was a little rough and it leaves a funny taste in my mouth.  However, now that I am getting used to it, I find it helpful.  I can take less Carbidopa/Levodopa and has much smoother transition between end/begin of medication times.

ONE THING I HAVE FOUND is the importance of staying hydrated.  Dehydration is a side effect and it shows.  If I don't watch it, I start feeling bad & symptoms flare up.  After I drink a large glass of water, I start feeling better."


"I took this medicine for ADD when I was eleven. I'd had some slight muscle tics before that and the doctor warned me and my parents that Adderall could make those worse, but at the time I wasn't too worried about it. That was a mistake. The tics got far worse, to the point that once I passed out because it made it difficult for me to breath. One doctor said it was OCD, and another said it might be Tourette's, and another thought it was the medicine.  All I know is I've stopped taking it and they've mostly gone away, though they still come back every once in a while when I'm tired. I'm not sure if Adderall would have helped my "ADD"; I didn't take it long enough. I've since managed to get it together and improve my grades without any medication."


"I've been on this medication,among others for 12 years. Helps control my seizures. Lately, had to talk to my neuro about the near constant head PAIN. Well beyond an ache!
By upping my dosage from 20 mgs to 30, I'm pretty much headache free. Which is a first for me. I've had migraines since grade school and the only thing that controlled them was aspirin. Tylenol  or ibuprofen did nothing but rot my liver. So used to migraines that even I didn't notice a progression until I landed in emergency and a pass through the CT showed a significant tumor.  After removal, various meds were tried to keep the seizures at bay. The one that worked tremendously well..was actually allergic to. Which brought me to the current cocktail of 3 different meds."


"When I first started to take the medication I felt a little lethargic but after a week my blood pressure fell to just above normal levels.  I am a smoker and the medication still regulates my pressure to nearly normal levels."


"I was having major panic attacks to the degree that I could not function. I'm terrified of all medicine, but when youre having anxiety to that degree, you're willing to try most anything for relief. I started out taking 0.5 mg 2-3x/day. Built up a tolerance after a few wks and was increased to 1 mg, but I don't take that dosage unless necessary. This med has helped me so much with no side effects that I can tell."


"It has been 3 years since I tried this product. Somehow I had forgotten how horrible it is! I used the Monistat 1 Day ovule at 4pm for a standard yeast infection, wanted to stop it before it was full blown. By midnight my vag was on Fire and by 2am my labia was so swollen it was hard to walk without pain! I used this 38 hours ago and I'm still in pain!! This Product Is Poison!!! Do Not Use if you value your health & sanity! Nightmare! Shame on the partner companies (Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc., the makers of MONISTAT®, and Vertical Pharmaceuticals, LLC ) that make soo much money off a Known severe symptom causing product. All female executives that  have a hand in marketing and promoting this product need a sample dose of the Fire Ovule!"


"I have been taking Neurontin for about 3 months now for Fibromyalgia pain. I am now on 600mg 3X/day. I have not noticed any significant change in pain levels. The pain I have that is the constant daily pain may be slightly better but the flares I experience have not improved at all. I experience a lot of fatigue with the fibro but the Neurontin is making me so sleepy I can hardly accomplish anything during the day."


"I have taken myself to ER and had bad stomach bug so much I needed fluids and this medicine worked magically (i.v form) and then pills work great at home. "


"I have been so sick since becoming pregnant, vomiting several times per day. Initially, I was given zofran, but the minute it would wear off I'd start vomiting again. My Dr switched me to Diclegis a few days ago and I feel great! No vomiting, No nausea, and I'm not worried about the potential problems that extended use of zofran could cause anymore. "


"I have tried many different options for weight loss including weight loss surgery. Nothing has worked so far. I started taking Contrave 6 weeks ago and have lost 12 pounds so far. I am so pleased. The only side effect I seem to have so far is some sleepiness. As long as I am up and moving this does not bother me. What it seems to do is stop the cravings and give me the will power to keep me from eating. I stop when I am full and have no desire to snack at night. I am not really doing much for exercise at this point as I have such back problems because of my weight that anything I do is painful for me. I am hoping once I have gone down in weight a little exercise will be easier."


"I started the patch on Friday and by saturday night I had started crying uncontrollably for no reason at all. This has not stopped and today I'm missing school because of that and the gnarly cramps I'm also experiencing. I plan on calling my doctor today to see if I should try something different or wait and see if everything levels out."


"I have gained 12 lbs in a month!  My feet/hands swell so bad that I take a water pill. I am so FATIGUED..no energy, get out of breath and have had several migraines lately..which is not normal for me. My pulse is low all the time and blood pressure is 135/85. I was on Hyzaar for years and it worked great."


"I used Prepopik one day prior to my colonoscopy.  First, it is expensive when not covered by insurance.  If I had not had a coupon it would have cost over $100.  Second, it took a while to start working. Lastly, when they did the colonoscopy I was not sufficiently cleaned out and the procedure had to be rescheduled.  I will use other more effective methods the next time around."


"Diagnosed 6 years ago as Bipolar 2 after 20 years of being all over the place. crazy ups/back downs but only ever treated for depression, I was put on a variety of medications in the first year that made me so ill, weight gains/losses, irrational thoughts/ideas, constantly felt ill with colds/flu had to keep changing medications and doses to see if they would work, then given Depakote, wow I felt human again within 2 weeks, settled, calm, clear head no side effects, its done wonders for me that no other got close to, I have my life back"


"35 years old...1 week in...I'm not experiencing the fatigue and nausea associated w/ naltrexone. No desire to drink--I feel like something is wrong. I wish I was prescribed this ten years ago."


"I've been on Belviq for almost 2 weeks. I read all the reviews here before I started, hoping to get a better idea of what it's like. The most important thing I want to stress is this pill works but only if you put the effort into eating healthy and gradually add exercise. By about the 8th day I really noticed my appetite decreasing. My mood is way better and the tiredness I felt the first week is gone. I tried one pill a day but felt like it works better with two. I'm on day 12 and down 10 pounds. Do your research, talk to your Dr. It doesn't have phentermine. It seems to work like an SSRI except it's hitting an area that controls hunger. I sleep better, feel better, and would recommend Belviq to change your relationship with food!"


"Took this for about a year and it was highly effective. Boosted my mood and rid of most my anxiety in just a week of starting it. Only thing was it made me sick at first but I switched to taking it at night and I was fine! I'd recommend Celexa over anything."


"The insertion was uncomfortable but not as painful as I had expected. There was a lot of bleeding so I would recommend bringing a pantyliner to use after the appointment! For the rest,I had no issues."


"Emend is a wonder-drug. I'm having chemotherapy and have not vomited once. In fact, I've only experienced intermittent waves of nausea that lasted for brief periods of time. My oncologist said to take it "before your feet hit the floor," and he was right. Cancer patients: Insist on having it."


"I have been on Prolia for 2 years. I am so happy. Before Prolia, for a couple of the years I had been on Forteo, and I was tired to shot myself into the stomach every day. Again comparing to Forteo, I have much better results with Prolia. What is the most important for me :) Yes, I have some bones pain (legs, back) especially for the first 2 months but, when I see my last Bone Density results, I can bear the pain :)) Thanks Prolia! God is great!!"


"My son has been taking Symbicort 200/6 for 4 years and it has worked well. He started feeling fatigued about a year ago and has been diagnosed in the last week with adrenal

suppression/shutdown which is a noted

possible reaction. If any users feel fatigued or have difficulty fighting infections I would suggest getting cortisol tested promptly."


"I was diagnosed w/RA 2014, put on Plaquenil on 10/2014, I delayed starting it out of fear, in March when I finally saw an actual RA Dr. & received answers that made sense and felt reassured, I started taking 200mg 2 x day. Took as prescribed for about 2 months, during which time, I began having the worst constipation! Severe enough where that pain was unbearable! I am a regular person when it comes to BM's, always 1x day sometimes 2! But when I went to 3 days and NO movement, just cramping and sitting on the toilet praying this would be the day I get relief. To top it off, I was not feeling any better with my RA. I had no relief from pain, aches, stiffness, numbing, fire, inflammation, it wasn't working"


"A very disappointing experience.The cost of the monthly supply was not the only negative factor.
The nausea, the not feeling myself and the  unusual liver test were all deterrents to continuing on the program.

After 2 months I could not go on  yes I lost some weight but not enough to continue with the horrible side effects of the drug and all the weight came back on.

We are human and always looking for the quick fix, however this product is dangerous and the Pharmaceutical company that released it should refund all people that it did not work on."


"Have to continue this after getting prior authorization. Insurance let me have Victoza for 4 times more the previous copay but Novo disk had that discount card on the website I requested and now my prescription is only $25. Basically the medicine stops my carbohydrate addiction and puts me back in control of what I eat and how my body burns fuel.  This is worth it."


"My skin was at it's worst in my prime adulthood age, so I decided to try retin-a. I've been using the 0.025% Retin-A gel for 2 months now. I didn't have the initial "purge" that most talk about, however, I believe it's because I was prescribed the gel vs. cream. Anyways, I over did it the first week by not following doctors orders and applying daily right of the bat. Don't, haha. My skin got so dry and flaky that I even burn my chin on my bed while sleeping from my skin being so thin. After that initial scare, I followed my doctors instructions and gradually worked up to every night use. Best skin in years. Try it, it works! Just don't forget to moisturize a lot. Sunscreen when you go out! Don't overdo it like I did."


"I have been on this pill for about a year and I have lost 30 pounds.  I am a little bit more moody but I think that it is worth it."


"I was addicted to pain meds after surgery at 20. Then  I started doing heroin to stay out of W/D. 7 long years later on heroin I heard a news clip for Suboxone heading here from Europe. I jumped on the phone and got an appointment. It went great. I went through W/D for 72 hours dying all the way through. The doctor started with 1-8mg. Sub., then 2, then 3. Finally it worked for me (24mg.) I have been on Suboxone almost 17 happy years. One day my doctor wanted to switch me to Zubsolv cause he had 15 free sample script and wanted me to try it . At first it was amazing (11-4) 2x's a day, 4 hours later I was W/D. It's horrible for me. It does not work for everyone. I'm back on Subs and back to my life. Zubsolv can't compare to my Suboxone!"


"I am 56 and was initially tested at 246.  Symptoms were low energy, continuous minor ailments, grumpiness, occasional inability to concentrate, and a low sex drive.  I was put on 1% Androgel and felt better almost immediately.  It was easy to apply and absorbed quickly.  At refill time my insurance company denied Androgel and switched me to Fortesta.  After starting Fortesta (4 pumps) the brain fog has not returned, but I don't always feel as sharp as when I was on Androgel.  My energy level is okay but not great.  And it's not as easy to apply, it goes on the thigh and does not absorb quickly.  My 60-day lab work had me at 244, actually lower than before treatment, so now I am at 8 pumps.  We'll see how it goes."


"I have a bleeding disorder so can't take NSAIDs. Unfortunately, I also have arthritis and shoulder pain. I was taking Tylenol #3 but didn't like the mental clouding side effect. Tramadol has worked great for me. I take 100 to 300 mg a day, tending toward the 100 side with 300 being for active weekends of running and biking (300 spread out in 3 doses, not all at once, obviously). This works really well. I'm giving it an 8 because of the side effects (constipation and dry mouth).

I've skipped a couple days with no problem and no overwhelming desire to take it (other than I hurt!)"


"First week I felt fatigue and almost stopped taking it. But I wasn't sure if it was the medicine or something else going on? Also almost immediately I had no desire to drink alcohol, I was in the habit of drinking wine almost daily. So this was amazing to me. (reading more, it's also used for stop smoking and drinking, well that certainly happened for me) I've been taking it for about 2 months and I've lost 15 pounds and I'm also following a low carb diet too. I also found that my mood improved too...I feel less moody and just calmer and happier....which is making my boyfriend very happy. LOL, I'm in my early 50's so I think I was going through the change and it was affecting my moods. Overall....it's been working great for me."


"Have had bowel problems all my life. In 2004 diagnosed with Crohns. Put on Pentasa and 6MP which eventually stopped working. Through the generous Abbvie Patient Assistance program I was able to start Humira in December 2015. The change was quick and dramatic. Many symptoms either disappeared or lessened. At times eating certain foods bring on cramps but they can be managed.

My only fear is that one year I will not be renewed in the Abbvie program. Medicare Part D has a copay which is quite high, well beyond my financial ability. This would result in loss of relief which Humira has provided."


"So i developed a YI from a steam room I believe.  I have gotten a few of them recently.  I've taken the monostat 1 day treatment with the "evil egg" and that made it unbearable - worst experience ever. I just sat in the tub and cried a little lol  So when i developed another YI I went to my Dr because I did not want to go through that again.  She recommended the prefilled applicator 6.5 - THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE MONOSTAT 1 CAPSULE... the itchiness is very mild and not nearly as gooey. BUY MONOSTAT 1 PREFILLED 6.5 -- DO NOT BUY THE CAPSULE MONISTAT 1

The 6.5 is quick relief and doesn't torture your "who-ha".

Best of luck ladies!"


"I'm 23, no kids. Had Jaydess (Canadian name for Skyla) inserted about 6 weeks ago, and so far so good! I decided I wanted to get off birth control pills because I suspected they were causing depression and anxiety (they were!). The insertion was really painful, but I later learned my uterus was "8/10 on the difficulty scale", so I'll accept that. I had light spotting/bleeding almost every day, for 5 weeks, but it stopped completely last week. The bleeding was 90% less than what I'm used to for my period. I had my checkup today and everything looks good!

My verdict is if the pill isn't bothering you, it's probably not worth the pain and money. But if you're like me, and have had issues, I highly recommend trying Skyla/Jaydess."


"I have been taking Atripla for just over 24 months. I was recommended to start after my CD4 dropped to around 400 after 2 years of contracting the virus. I was advised to take before bed, did this for the first 2 months and suffered vivid dreams and also insomnia, 3 months later a month of diarrhea. I decided to move my dose until around 5pm on an empty stomach so I could then eat my dinner for around 18:30 each night. Usually go to bed before midnight and have had no further issues with sleep or any other side effects. CD4 on average around 1000  and undetectable. Just weird having to take medicines when you feel fine. I hope I get another 20 years from this medication, by this time I'm sure there will be advancements in treatment."


"I'm a 38 year old married guy in the Dallas area and noticed that over the past few years I had been growing stagnant.  I had been sleeping a lot, not being able to concentrate at work, feeling tired and lethargic and worst of all my sex drive had just about disappeared.  I'm on my second month and have to say WOW.  My doctor started me on 120mg of Testosterone Cypionate and upped my dosage to 140mg about 2 shots ago.  My first few weeks were okay, I had more energy, was able to sleep better at night and improved libido.  Now into my 2nd month I'm as horny as I was at 19 and will probably go back to 120mg since my wife can't keep up with me. "


"The Abilify helped with my major depressive disorder but has left me feeling like I am in a fog. I can't remember anything and my reactions are slow. I actually lost 40 pounds while taking this medication without trying, which I desparately needed to do."


"The mood swings are almost unbearable and I've been getting my period even when I'm taking the active pills."


"This is by far the worst antibiotic I've ever taken. Hours after my first dose I had severe stomach pain and was up all night running back and forth to the bathroom. My fitbit has also been telling me that my heart beat is faster than normal, I've been in fat burn mode while laying in bed.. I've definitely noticed insomnia as I've been up until 3-4am all week. I'm always tired as well. I'm only halfway through the pills, and there is no way I'll ever take them again as today I woke up with more severe stomach pain. My sinuses do feel better though."


"I had my Implanon inserted approximately 2 and half months ago. I have not had a period at all, however, I have had some bizarre side effects which have become unbearable, including acne, weight gain/bloating, mood swings and feelings of depression. I plan to go back to my doctor to get the Implanon removed."


"I have been taking Celexa due to many stessful events that made my anxiety almost unbearable. Tough financial times, stress at work, 3 miscarriages, being away from family, etc. My list is huge. I was surprised I lasted this long without medicines. I always tried to convince myself that I could control the panic, fear, stress, sad feelings, etc. Exercise helped but I finally decided to get help. I hate the feeling of always being worried, always going to worst case scenarios, feeling out of place, fearful of even driving, unbearable anxiety of trying to conceive again after my traumatic experiences. Anyway, I was prescribed 20mg of Celexa. Going on week 2 and I hope this is my answer. Already feeling better, no side effects except yawning."


"I have been taking Pristiq for nearly 2 weeks due to losing my father in October 2010. I tried to fight my depression but it was starting to control my life. I am feeling better having a good day today has been a long time since I have had a good day I have had some nausea and a bit tired but overall see light at the end of the tunnel finally. Don't feel ashamed of taking medication, depression is worse if not treated. "


"I am a 50 year old hispanic male. I have had a constant headache for a week. My Blood pressure was 150/112 so I prescribed Bystolic. I'm anxious to feel better. We will see."


"Prescribed 300 Mg 3 times daily for 10 days. Got a fever, chills, body aches, muscle pain and a pounding headache behind the eyes.  Nobody else reports these type of symptoms so my doctor is convinced that I got sick simultaneously with starting the treatment.  My symptoms would increase and decrease with the timing of doses... And became worse with each new dose. After two days of suffering, and a continual regiment of pain relievers, I decided to stop taking the medication. Fever broke within 4 hours.  Headaches improved.  Slowly improved to normal after about 24 hours.

I have never had a reaction like this before to any dig but Clindamycine is now on the no no list.

Listen to your body. There are other less harsh antibiotics."


"I got on Yaz right when in 2007. I have been on it ever since than. I've thought about switching because of all the negative stories and scary side effects people are claiming Yaz has. But honestly, I love this birth control. I don't have any symptoms during my period. I don't get cramps, bloating, etc. Although, I do get acne during my period, but it consist of 2-3 pimples that go away when my period stops. My period only lasts 3 days, it's light, and before Yaz I'd last up to 7 days and it was very heavy. I have nothing bad to say about it and would recommend it to anyone."


"I take 100mg as a PRN for extreme anxiety/panic attacks. It works almost as well as Ativan but without the unfortunate inevitability of building up a tolerance that happens with taking benzos.The only downside is that my insurance doesn't cover it while it does cover Ativan, otherwise I would just switch over completely.

The sensation is a bit different than using benzos to stop a panic attack. Where Ativan will work very quickly in 20-30 minutes tops and smother and separate you from the sensation of panic in your chest, with hydroxyzine it takes about 45 minutes and the way the anxiety slowly petering-out sort of creeps up on you. You have to be more patient which can be awful when you're panicking but the end result is nearly identical."


"I am classified in the BMI category as Obese. I need to lose 90 pounds and since starting Belviq in October of 2016,  I have lost 42 pounds.  I have started working out because I know that just losing the weight was not enough, I needed to get my heart going again.  I have no medical issue,  so it is just about getting the weight off for a healthier me.  It took about 3 weeks for my weight to start dropping and it has been slow. There are times where I will lose weight and then I might go a week and lose nothing.  The main thing is not giving up and getting out their and trying. I can't run a mile YET, but I can walk it.  Don't stop trying and don't give up on Belviq. It really helps."


"This medicine is amazing and works better than anything else I tried.   It has been a week that I've been sick  and can't breath, shortness of breath.  I take this and feel all better."


"I am in my mid fifties and my anxiety has gradually worsened over the past 6 years or so. I'm now off work. I have tried a few meds but this is the most recent. I only took 50mg for 3 weeks. I found my sleep to be a little better and I seemed slightly less self conscious if that makes sense. The negatives far outweighed any benefits though. Within the first week I had lost my appetite and when I ate I would just bloat. I also got stomach pains. It basically shut my metabolism down. I have extreme headaches and dizziness as well and zero motivation.
I have to say that I am one of those people that are very sensitive to medications so this drug may benefit some people"


"Makes me feel like I have a hangover the next morning.. helps make me sleep very well."


"This is my third day of Ciprofloxacin 500mg twice per day and Metronidazole 500mg twice per day for recently diagnosed diverticulitis.  I am experiencing disturbances in sleep, despite being really tired I am finding it difficult to fall asleep.  I also feel light headed.  I am drinking lots of water.  I have been following a gluten free diet prior to diagnosis and this appears to have eased my worst symptoms."


"I was sick for a few days and the constant coughing was making my chest hurt. I thought I had bronchitis or something worse so I ended up going to the ER. The doctor prescribed Tessalon Perle. I figured it was a "magic" pill after hearing about the side effects. Cool! I took one. I did noticed the cough was reduced but still there. I did sleep better that night after taking 1 pill. By the next day, my cough was gone. I did have a lot of green mucus so I took Tylenol severe cold. I did cough but it was to bring up all that mucus. I feel better after 2 days and 4 pill later."


""I have been taking this medicine for only a few days now and have noticed some things that have me very concerned  because it was given for pain but I have been experiencing major side effects. The first thing that started was headaches then depression , nausea , stomach aches,feeling of swelling of my legs, feet, ankles, hands and it feels like I'm retaining fluid all over my body,I didn't have these side effects when I was taking Morphine without the extra ingredient like the Ebedea has and now am worried that I am going to be in sever pain as this medication does very little for my pain."


"I started on Cylert in 1990 and my brain activity took off.  I was concentrating better, I wasn't as nervous as I used to be. I stopped taking it because my doctor moved from one location to out of state.  I figured I'd give it a try without it.  I went back on it in 1998 for a period of time and felt as I did back in the early 1990s.  I now cannot get it because of hepatic problems, but I am willing to keep taking it because it is and was the best ADD medication I have ever had.  I am very upset and sorry for all of us who do not use it anymore and there are no more alternatives closest to Cylert.  Maybe one day there will be, but until then, with all of the medications I have tried, my mind will continue to spin and constantly be on run."


"Went to the dermatologist after a nasty looking rash popped up. Turns out I had Hot Tub Folliculitis. Taking the ciprofloxacin to get rid of it. Seen a massive improvement in just two days, but I'm not fond of the side effects. My sinuses drain, so I get nauseous. I sneeze more than normal. Nausea if taken on an empty stomach, and just overall malaise. Hopefully I won't be on it too much longer, but I have to say, it works really well."


"suboxone saved my life!! i abused all opiates from herion to vicodin,i have been opiate free for 4 years .i now take 1 of the 2/5 pills dailey.spread the word this is a far better option than methadone."


"Initially, I took the low dosage and flow improved for about a week.  Then the condition worsened.  My doctor then upped my dosage to two pill per day.  Same thing happened initially - flow improved and then reverted back to the prior condition.  But as I continued to use the drug (2 times a day) the improved condition returned.  Sometimes the flow is better than other times - like when my bladder is more full.  Trips to the bathroom at night were reduced to 0 to 1 time.

Side effects.  Initially, I experienced many side effects - runny noise, minor headache, aches and weakness in my back and shoulder, and retrograde ejaculation.  Retrograde ejaculation is the only side effect that seems to persist."


"I thought I'd write a review as I spent months reading these forum's trying to decide if I should try escitroplam or not. It took me months to get the courage up to take it. I started at 2.5 and bumped up to 5.  I've been on 5 for about 5 weeks now and wow what a difference.  Anxiety and panic attacks minimal and depression lifting. It's a very good drug. The least side effects of all I've tried. Headaches,nausea but that's all. Very happy with this. I was extremely anxious about taking this after a bad experience with prozac but I'm very pleased!"


"I have been taking Prozac for a little over a year. I started out taking 20mgs then, switched to 40mgs 2 months after I starting taking it. It helped me with the feelings of worthlessness, feeling like a failure and my thoughts of taking myself out of the pain. I finally saw a mental health Dr who diagnosed me with severe depression and increased my dosage to 60 mgs a day. I feel much better and the little things don't send me over the edge like they used to. I do have side effects such as dry mouth, always tired, increased/decreased appetite and recently diagnosed with lichenoid dermatitis. My Dermatologist is encouraging my dr to change my psych meds. I am unsure on that; the Prozac has helped me to want to live."


"Not a very good experience, severe head pain and throat discomfort."


"I am 45 years old and have taken birth control pills from the time I was 18 to 34 when my husband and I decided to start a family. For 11 years my cycles were always 26-28 days, the reason I went back on the pill was due to painful menstrual cramps and not to get pregnant. Since I have been on this pill I had immediate break through bleeding, it's lasted for 3 months. It's actually gotten worse I bleed everyday! I have also suffered from migraines and headaches daily in the 3rd month. My breast are huge and my weight is creeping up. I feel depressed and have no sex drive. I hate this pill! I took my last pill today. I rather have two painful days of menstrual cramps. I will never take this pill ever!!!!!"


"I was extremely scared to start taking this pill because of all of the reviews, but I saw one review that made me change my mind. The girl said "everyone's body react differently. The only way to know how yours will react is to try it." So I did, and now I feel the same as she did. This birth control is great. I only had symptoms the first 2 days and that was only nausea and one time vomiting. After that, I never felt nauseous again. I've been on it for about a month now, and I've experienced some weight gain but mostly in all the right areas. (Breasts, butt, and hips). Because of where the weight gain is, I suspect it's the pill because normally my weight fluctuates. If you're worried, just try it. The worst that could happen is you stop using it."


"I would be dead if not for methadone and the clinic. I will never forget the people there that helped me. I was dying they saved me from pills. I thank them every time I'm there."


"I began taking Pristiq 50 mg approximately 6 months ago and as reported by the numerous previous posts, I also experienced exceptionally rapid weight loss.  The first week I suffered from nausea, to the point that I did not think I could suffer through it; but my physician said I should continue taking it.  I also experienced extreme dizziness, but only for the first few days.  I have to admit those symptoms do not outweigh the benefits.  Like many others, I am much more clear headed and focused. I have noticed those negative side effects will return almost overnight if I miss a dose, so my body helps to remind me. I do not want to forget."


"I have been on Asacol, two 400mg pills three times a day. It has done wonders for me. I have no side effects at all and it has kept my ulcerative colitis in remission with to symptoms at all. While my doctor has told me to stay on the full dosage, the bottle says that after 6 weeks one should go on maintenance of only 4 pills per day. Due to the expense of these pills, I am already down to 5 pills per day and still doing great."


"Laying in bed after putting in the first of the 7 day application and the burning is so unbearable I want to itch so bad I thought it was just me so I googled monistat and found these reviews. I'm reading these reviews and I'm glad to know its not just me! .. . If I tough it out will it clear up my yeast infection? I don't look forward to doing this another 6 times its soooooo unbearable !"


"I have taken Paxil since 1999. I have tried other drugs of the same type and nothing works for me like Paxil does. I've used different does throughout the years, as I've been fortunate enough to have doctors who listen to me and recognize that in this regard, I know my needs.

Specifically, I stopped taking Paxil when I was pregnant with my son ten years ago. After his birth, I did not resume because I wanted to breastfeed. My post-partum depression was deeper than anything I could have expected. Paxil brought me back to life.

Five years ago, I took it throughout another pregnancy with no side effects to my child.

I often say that Paxil saved my life, and I mean that very literally."


"I never had "headache" in my life until high school, when I had my first migraine. Beyond the pain, it was completely debilitating; I lost my equilibrium, I was vomiting, had extreme light and sound sensitivity.  After nearly a decade of doctor visits, food/beverage intake tracking, blood tests, etc. without finding an answer, I was finally referred to a neurologist. I had been prescribed Imitrex (had just become available in pill form), but it was never in my system long enough to work for me. At this point, I was having approx. 3 migraines per week, some lasted 1 day, others lasted 3. I was prescribed propranolol 60mg daily for 6 months. I rarely have migraines anymore (only 1-3 per year)."


"I am a 45 year old female with hormonal cystic acne which I've had for around 10 years. I've tried various oral antibiotics, prescription topical creams, face washes, etc... When my dermatologist first put me on Aczone I thought it was a miracle cream. I would have given it 10 stars the first few months because the first 3 months were AWESOME. The next 6 months were okay. Over the last 3 months I have had a tube in the drawer but the over the counter acne creams work just as well now. It is expensive if you don't have insurance. It is worth a try but for me it isn't working like it did at first. I didn't notice any side effects other than dry skin."


"My son suffered 3 concussions back to back which left him in a zombie like state for several (7) years. He was not sad, per se, just in a state of chronic malaise coupled with chronic fatigue, i.e. not being able to stay awake more then 2 or 3 hours at a time. Finally, we were able to find a Doctor who was familiar with head injuries and the low level of dopamine that the victim is often left with. Wellbutrin is a dopamine and noradrenaline re-uptake inhibitor so it is really working great for our son. It was literally like flicking his switch back "on".  Anyone who has not felt like their old self after even a minor concussion should consider using this medicine."


"Used it for two periods after a nervous breakdown. Restored my sleep cycle pretty well after 12-14 days both times. Needed two pills 10mg each for it to work but recommended."


"I would always be in class with wet armpits.  I would be doing nothing but sitting and my shirt and armpits would be soaked.  I never understood why.  When I first got Hypercare, it worked great!  I didn't need to reapply because it was working.  Now my sweat is starting to come back and after re applying, it no longer works.  I do not know why but I really wish it would work again."


"I was hurt on the job back in 2006.Had a disc removed and fusion of L4 and L5 in my lower back.I  have suffered for years with chronic back and leg pain because of this injury.I was on 80 mg's of Percocet  a day for 2 years and was taken off of it,cold turkey as they say,by my Dr.

After 5 days of terrible withdrawl's,my Dr. put me on OPANA ER 10 mg tab's,twice a day.They helped me with my withdrawl symptoms but didn't do much for my pain.

My Dr. agreed to up my dosage to 30 mg's,twice per day.

WOW!!!! What a difference these 30 mg pills make.Pain is about a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10 and I can finally sleep again.

It is known that only 10 percent of your dose is actually absorbed by the body and the rest is eliminated when taken orally."


"Usual story: The condom broke. Went to CVS that night and got Plan B. I took it that same night and the next day I slept for the entire day. No exaggeration. I have never slept so much before in my life. The pill did it's job so I don't care but wow I slept sooo much."


"This drug has changed my life . I take it along with Tegretol CR. I was having continued absence seizures regularly until I started taking this. Since then i have been completely free of those invasive seizures."


"I been taking this medication for about a week and can still feel some pain but other then that it's works really well. I been taking 400 mg three times a day."


"I was having really bad panic attacks,anxiety had me feeling like I was going crazy ! I went to my doctor he put me on bupropion 75 mg 2x a day I started taking this medication 5 days ago and I feel that I can finally get my life back ! I had a lilttle anxiety for about 3 days nothing major but I'm feeling so good I sleep well,I can think without answering myself, I have energy I'm so happy my doctor put me on this. I pray to whoever going through this I hope that you will find comfort as I did."


"I had intercourse for the first time with my partner after inserting the Estring.  I was well lubricated but was a little irritated during and afterwards.  It even burned a little when I urinated afterwards.  Hopefully, this will be a one-time experience.  I'm contemplating removing the Estring the next time."


"This is the only thing that I have tried that helps me sleep a full 8 hours. I love this medication. I have had no sleep walking and I have not done anything that I can't remember. The only side effects I have had are just feeling a little tired during the day and increased appetite. I would definitely recommend this medication to people with insomnia."


"I started off with the mirena and had it for 4 1/2 years with no issues...  Took it out cause my husband nd I wanted another baby!  So now I have the paraguard nd I've had it in for 1 1/2 years with no issues...  First day a little cramping nd spotted for three days very lightly...  This is the best ever nd it's good for 10years , I would recommend to anyone...  Nd it's hormone free..."


"Granted this is one of only two different birth control pills I have ever used, but it has been extremely easy to deal with. I have not gained weight, yes there can be a little bit of breakthrough bleeding in the first few months, but that is completely normal for acclimating physically to the pill. This pill is an example of how great it is to take a low dose birth control pill. All the effectiveness without the awful side effects. My periods are regular on this pill to the point where I can predict what day and even time of day each month I will get them. I have been on Aviane for 7 1/2 years now and would never switch."


"Three months ago I started the Nortriptyline 10mg daily to help with very disabling  migraine with aura.  So far so good.  I haven't had a migraine, and I would normally have had one or two in that time.   For a couple of years I have been taking 400mg daily vitamin B2, but I was still getting sick.  So I've added the Nortriptyline.  I also, now, am very careful to not become constipated, and that may be making a difference.  But, it looks like the Nortriptyline has been good for me.  My migraines started at about 13; I'm 61 now."


"Sitting here shaking in my boots this stuff is weak 1mg 3 times a day"


"I have 4 herniated discs and so far nothing helped - this at least keeps in manageable so I can still work and do things around the house."


"I'm on my second week. I have had a headache for the first week and there is times my heart speeds up. I'm now doing 1 in morning and 1 night this was my first night and I couldn't stay asleep and don't feel rested and I'm sleepy but can't sleep. Not sure how I feel about this. I have a Co worker on it to and when she got to a full month she was unable to pee had to revive meds and she is back to 1 pill a day.."


"Because of weight issues, my doctor decided Lamictal was the only way to go because it wasn't supposed to cause weight gain.  While they just upped my dosage to a therapeutic amount, I can say my friends noticed a difference at lower dosages.  It really does make a difference and I'm hoping at the current dosage, I completely even out.  I also take Paxil (my depression was severe when I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder) and Xanax.  I do choose to take the Lamictal in the evenings because it makes me very groggy."


"Doesn't taste too bad for having to drink it.  It is effective.  Doesn't seem to have to have any  negative effects on me. and works quickly especially compared to other pain meds."


"Works great for my Crohn's with few minor side effects. As of 2016 Cigna/Express scripts will NOT cover as a preventative med."


"I feel it is my duty to write a review since I read so many before taking the medication. I'll first say I'm crazy about weight! I was so scared of potential weight gain. The first week I put on like 4 pounds. Increased water intake and it was off by the next week. Also before taking the medication my acne was bad. I'm three weeks in and my face is looking great. I LOVE this medication. The break through bleeding was pretty bad at first and sometimes I feel crazy and hormonal but it is very minimal. Love love love."


"I've tried this pill twice. Both times, my doctor had to take me off and put me on something else because after 2-3 months, it stops working properly. The first few months are great - very little PMS, 4 day light bleeds, and good sex drive. After 3 months, I dried up, lost interest in sex, and PMS symptoms turned into PMDD symptoms. I started to get migraines, flu-like body aches, 5-6 day heavy bleeds with clots. And if I missed a pill! My period would start within 3 days, even if doubled up to get back on track. Basically, I was having 1 good week out of a whole month."


"Is This Antibiotic responsible for the Huge Increase in Parkinsons Diseease??

     There is a Condition that affects a Great Percentage of the Western World an Antibiotic Infection. In most cases this leads to Coeliac Food intolerances Through Disbiosis of the Large Intestine and the resultant Leaky Gut and Possibly Bowel Cancer in later life. However this version of Antibiotic can cause a problem with Trytophan production from the Large intestine and a resultant Dopamine Deficency - "


"Chantix is an amazing medicine for smoking cessation. It completely robs you of any pleasant sensations you got from smoking. That said, I have experienced a lot of the side effects including severe nausea, headaches, extremely vivid but good dreams (when have you ever been able to feel the texture of something in a dream?). I have been using Chantix for 6 weeks, smoke free for 4. Never going back to cigarettes."


"I've been on Belviq since 10/17 and I lost 10 lbs so far.  I started on the sample from the doc.  My insurance, UHC, approved it right away.  It costs $25.  I am supposed to take two pills a day, but I only take 1.  Initially I had a headache for 2 or 3 days and I took Excedrin or Tylenol for relief.  Anyway, I don't have many side effects now.  I am really tired by the end of the day and I am usually asleep by 9 pm and I sleep like a baby.  I typically have sleep problems and have taken Ambien periodically.  I have no need for that now.  I think I would have lost more weight, but it took a minute to figure how to work out my eating plan.  I try not to eat carbs at night.  If I eat carbs, it will be once a day and I don't over indulge."


"I wrote a review my first week and at the time I had gain 2lbs. Today is 1 month and I have lost between 9-11lbs. I was skeptical in the beginning due to weight gain and because I was not experiencing the serious side effects I didn't think it was going to work. I still have minimal side of effects however I am no longer sleepy during the day.  Sometime dry mouth and constipation which I eat prunes and drink water that does the trick. Follow the schedule to take meds. I still have 74lbs to go and I am still excited!"


"I am a 45 yr female who developed high blood pressure 160/100. I took Lopressor for 3 months and hated it.  I am a pretty fit and active person and on Lopressor I became so sluggish and tired I couldn't function at all.  My doctor gave me Bystolic one month ago and I love it!  I feel like myself again.  No side effects at all. My heart rate stays normal all day!  Anyone feeling really bad on medicine they are taking should ask doctor to try this medicine. "


"I have used Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, all with varying degrees of improvement with my ED. Stendra did nothing. Glad I had a coupon for three free pills. It still cost me $7."


"Spent 20 dollars on this stuff! I inserted the egg and 30 mins later my vagina was on FIRE!! I'm so mad I bought this, wish I would have read the reviews before hand"


"I was actually on Lupron Depot for 18 months.  My periods stopped within a week and my pain was gone within the first month.  I almost didn't go on it because of the horror stories I read online, but I'm glad I did.  My skin broke out more than normal, but nothing a little makeup couldn't hide.  The hot flashes were intense at first, but slowly started to subside.  After six months they completely stopped.  I also fully understand night sweats.  The side effects were well worth it to me since I no longer have cramps that hurt so bad I pass out.  I am also enjoying being period free after never having a regular cycle and being anemic the better part of my life."


"I am 58 with diagnosis received over 15 years ago.  I have tried several antidepressants and antianxiety medication with little if any relief.  Upon expressing frustration with my doctor, it was suggested to try latuda.  I am on day 8 of 20 mg.  Almost immediately felt calmer, clearer thinking, interest in my forgorgotten enjoyments.  I am in good health physically.  So far, no signs of any side affects and no weight gain at all (I gain weight easily) and gained over 20 lbs over the years using celexa and other antidepressants.  My diagnosis was changed after 14 years to bipolar 1 same doctor all these years.  I was afraid of medicines but deep depression forced me to try again. I'm happy so far with latuda. Good luck and God bless."


"CAUTION with the DOSAGE of this thing. I've seen from 0.3mg to 10mg being sold. Got a really BAD headache the next day when taking 1mg before sleep. Also tried the 0.3mg and got sleepy the next day all, yawing all day long

It really "causes" sleep, you'll feel sleepy, but not relaxed at all. It's not like a benzodiazepine(alprazolam/clonazepam/etc). If you already feel your eyes dry/red and yawning, you don't need this! And try the lowest dose you can find. I'm STILL trying to find something lower than 0.3mg because even that dosage seems too much for me. Have been fighting with my "internal clock" since I was a kid.. it seems my brain always want to sleep later and later... and that feeling that I won't sleep causes me anxiety too"


"I have been on Yaz for a little over a year now. My doctor put me on this pill because it is apparently a good one for PCOS. This pill did keep me from getting pregnant and helped somewhat with cramping. However, while on this pill I gained about 12 pounds and my sex drive was non-existent and I'm 21 so that's not normal. Also, while I was on Yaz my periods never came the day it was supposed to but rather the day it was suppose to end. My periods were often heavy and irregular. Before I was put on Yaz I was on Seasonique and today I am going back on that pill. I was on Seasonique for 4 years before Yaz and I never had any problems."


"I am definitely feeling better as far as not being congested goes. However, I am writing this at 4:52am because I have not been able to sleep all night long. I took the medicine at about 8pm so I probably won't be doing that again."


"I have tried everything, Imitex you name it but I always come back to Fioricet so I'm sticking with itl It works wonders I love it."


"If you are prone to acne, get ready to have the worst acne ever. My bf convinced  me to take it in case after he didn't pull out in time. I was 2 days after ovulation. The likelihood of getting pregnant were slim. Really wish I went with my gut to not take this pill. My skin and my self esteem are a mess."


"I have PTSD with psychosis and for me this medicine was a blessing! I tried many different antipsychotics and a whole host of other medicines but Risperdal worked wonders for me. I have been symptom free (psychotic symptoms that is) for over three years now and the only time they returned was when I tried to switch to another drug. I went back to this one and no problems since. I take the twice a month intramuscular injection now only because it stops me from forgetting to take my medicine, and this drug has truly saved my life. I also never experienced any side effects from it; except for a slightly elevated prolactin level but it never gave me any problems."


"Best nausea medication in my opinion. I use it for nausea associated with my migraine headaches and it works extremely fast and well."


"Works well for me other than the constipation it has caused since I began using it. My blood pressure was 180/90 and when combined with carvedilol, Edarbyclor XL and Procardia it is now running 120/60 average. After 30  years of very high uncontrolled hypertension it's refreshing to have BP this low. One doctor I was going to gave me a medicine that caused my BP to skyrocket to 200/100. "


"I had my second shot last April and have had problems ever since. I now have TMJ jaw bone pain.  Cannot eat without pain and crunch sounds. Have to use a hot water bottle on my jaw area.I have had severe bladder pain and severe acid reflux 2 weeks after getting the shot. I also have hip and bone pain. Itching has been horrible. I don't want this shot any longer. I will take my chances. I have osteoporosis but so did my mother and she never took this stuff and she did fine."


"For 9 months I struggled with anxiety, depression, foggy brain, fatigue, low sex drive, loss of morning erections, and general feeling of malaise. Doctor tested my T and came back at 251. I was referred to an endocrinologist and he retested and came back at 189. Prescribed Androgel 1.62% on a 2 month trail and it has been amazing. Within 4-5 days I noticed that the "crashes" that I used to experience  daily for 4-5 hours now only lasted 30-60 minutes. After 4 weeks of treatment, the Daily crashes have disappeared. My sex drive is coming back, still not where it should be but I'm optimistic that I'll get there. I have a follow up appointment in a month and I'm looking forward to finding out my levels!"


"I was told by my doctor to take the doxycycline 100mg once a day for 3 months. So far it has been 3 weeks and I think my acne is getting worst. The first week my acne seemed to be improving. That was until the 2nd week it started getting worst. I'm starting to think it might be my period causing me to break out again. So I'm hoping I will see an improvement when its over. I have had no bad side effects which is great. After reading positive feedback on this I am really hoping to see a huge difference!! BE PATIENT"


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"Because I was scheduled for early morning procedure, my physician had me do both bottles of the prep last night. Yep, in, done, over with by 10am. So, at 5pm, he had me take a half bottle, mix it to the fill line with, his instructions, koolaid or lemonade, drink it down, repeat, and follow with an additional glass or two, of water. Repeat the whole thing again at 8pm. Now, from having read these entries, I did stop and get a straw to avoid some of the taste. It's not something I want to take every day, as once it started working, it worked really well! By this Morning, there really was nothing left. I also placed myself on clear liquids since Sunday which helped tremendously I'm sure, and I'm down 5 pounds!"


"My husband had just got a vasectomy, but there is a period of time where men are still fertile and we hadn't been cleared yet for zero sperm count. We had a few drinks and forgot to use protection. We knew I had either already ovulated or was about to ovulate at the time of our oops. The next day I took the pill and within a few hours I could tell it was taking effect. I got a lot of cramps on one side which kept occurring periodically for the two weeks after. I had some dizziness and extreme fatigue for a few days. The side effects were all listed on the package though. I think since I took the pill right around my fertile time it didn't mess up my cycle much. I started right on the day I was supposed to exactly two weeks after our oops."


"I had constipation, bloating, chest pains, and gastritis for a few days causing agonizing pain, I took one and amazing it cleaned my entire digestive system, bloating, chest pains, and gastritis cramps stopped.  What a blessing."


"I have had the implant for a little over a year and a half. I absolutely loved it, until recently. I LOVE not having a period, I rarely had occasional bleeding. However, I now have a boyfriend, and after each time I have sex I get my period. I have had three periods this month. I am debating getting it removed and going back to the pill, sadly. I am curious if anyone else has had this happen."


"It definitely helps with cravings and weightloss, however if you have or do experience anxiety or depression already this pill is not going to help. I did lose about 5-6lbs the first couple weeks but I had to stop because it was making me a crazy person. I had the most horrible anxiety and I just felt mean and upset and sad and it really affected my emotions negatively. Just be careful!"


"Severe flare put me in the hospital. Have had no problems in 9 months of taking sulfasalazine went against doctors advice choose this over stronger medication. All labs have been good since. Also got a new doctor!"


"I have had the implanon since February 2012 and I hate it. The first 6 months were okay only had 2 periods on it not got pregnant but ive gained a lot of weight more than I did when I gave birth. Before birth I was 156 now im 198. I get bad headaches and stomache aches. My back always hurts and I always feel tired. I get dizzy alot and it scares me having our little girl while im driving. It has caused me to faint 1 time at home while my husband was there. I just want my energy back so I can do the things I want to with our little girl who is almost 2. I havent lost my sex drive but my husbands job is 1week on 1week off so I guess its hard to tell. I just want to feel normal and happy again. Im tired of the mood swings and depression also."


"This is the 4th medication I've been on and the hardest one to work through. I suffer from mainly anxiety and PTSD not so much depression. I am also extremely sensitive to medication and have experienced all of the side effects. Pristiq made me more depressed than ever, and knew this was not me. I was always tired, then I halved the pill and its worked wonders!! Anyone suffering mainly anxiety I suggest you do this before jumping ship. I have my energy back, and going to the gym almost everyday. I also dropped weight using this medication. I'm getting back my life after losing to this drug for almost 3 months. Please Try HALVING the tablet- best advice ever given :) Now I can go back on teaching rounds without suffering social anxiety."


"I'm 52, my doctor prescribed 20/12.5 twice a day. I alternate dosages...take twice a day 3 times per week then one a day other 4 days. My blood pressure is 104/72. I want to be able to take it only once a day soon! I believe it will happen. What makes this medicine work for me is that I am active by exercising 6 days per week (weight training and cardio 4 days per wk, 1 day kickboxing and 1 day just walking). I believe that if you get plenty of cardio work for heart/blood circulation it will do what it supposed to do without really experiencing all of the bad side effects. The only side effect I experienced is a slight sore throat once in a while."


"Pristiq has been a catch 22 for me. The medication has helped to stablize my mood and some thought process, but there have been multiple draw backs. During my first 2-3 weeks of taking the medication I was even more tired, had to sleep for at least 3-4 hours after taking the medication, which prompted taking it at night. The BIGGEST DRAW BACK for myself is that Pristiq has made running and physical recovery double in time. I've added almost 1 minute 20 seconds off of my run time additionally it has become extremely difficult to find the motivation for working out. Because I enjoy competing in triathlons this side effect for me has been devastating. For instance, an 8 mile run that would take me 44 mins took me 1 hour and 9 mins this morning."


"I have emotional regulation issues, and birth control usually causes serious problems - this one has been a dream. Cleared up my acne, made my boobs a full cup size bigger, no weight gain, increased libido, no issues with mood swings. Seriously. Now I just have to petition my insurance to cover it since the samples have run out =("


"I suffered with an extremly stubborn case of mild acne. My dermatologist put me on 4 different medications, either making me extremely ill or just not working at all. I was a little nervous when we started talking about Accutane, because of all the paper work and blood tests. But, I soon realized that there is really nothing to worry about, your lips will be DRY DRY DRY. I highly recommend Aquaphor, that is the only thing that helped me. For the dry skin, it's nothing I can't handle just some dry spots, maybe a few cuts from scratching it but that's all. I did NOT lose my hair nor did I get fatter, like some of the side effects said. The blood work is sometimes a pain, but it is truly worth it."


"After my first month on this pill, I have had non stop acne on my chin like I have never had before. Also, I had my period (5 days) and then continued to spot for another 7 days. I don't weigh myself but it is obvious I've gained weight as well. Don't even get me started about my over the top mood swings. I never had these problems when I was on
Orthocept. Even though it has been only one month and it may balance out after a few months, I do not think I will wait to find out."


"I have had the Nexplanon implant in for a few months now and I seriously love it. It saved me SO much money from the Nuvaring I used to be on. I didn't bruise when I got it implanted and was only sore for a few days. I have not had a period or any of the random bleeding that I was worried about. I have not had ANY side effects! I'm so pleased! I've been on birth control for 4 years (2 years of the pill and 2 years of the Nuvaring) and Nexplanon is so much more convenient."


"I had implanon inserted a few months ago due to frustrations with the birth control pill and breakthrough bleeding. After reading many experience online the insertion experience and what side effect I may experience seemed daunting - however, I can confirm that the insertion process was only the discomfort of a needle to numb the area and then a feeling of pressure and it was all over. The area felt uncomfortable for about a week and now I hardly notice it at all. The biggest thing for me is that after 3 months I am yet to have a period or any break through bleeding. My experience so far is a positive one with no major side effects to note. I am grateful for no longer having to remember to take a pill everyday."


"Extremely effective until I developed a tolerance. The unpleasant aftertaste is due to an increase in the pH of the saliva/mouth environment. I found that taking Lunesta with an acidic drink such as orange juice prevented the aftertaste. Chocolate, the darker the better, will reduce the taste if it occurs."


"I used Axiron at first and noticed an improvement but nothing explosive. I think the absorption was decreased as you put in your armpits and then have to put deodorant. T levels did not really go up. Switched to Testim and I have really noticed a huge difference. More energy, improved muscular definition (which was decreasing before treatment even though I am always active), sharper, much improved sex drive and mood swings are gone. Have not yet done a T level test with Testim, but I expect higher levels. I recommend that you really apply the gel on both shoulders (half tube on each) and rub it into the skin. This sure helps alleviate the stickiness to your shirts. The smell can be bothersome but what is the alternative? Low T?"


"**UPDATE** I have now been on Saxenda since 2-19-17, April 1st ( 41 days on Saxenda) I weigh 190, I started at 208, so this is a total of EIGHTEEN POUNDS loss in 41 DAYS. I am not at 2.4 dose.I do walk a lot at work and do a lot of yard work, but other than that, I have NOT worked out or exercised. I do feel full at about 700 to 900 calories. Some days I can not eat more than 500 or so calories. I also have kept it below 100 carbs per day. I feel healthy , a little tired but not so much it interferes with my day. Occasional nausea, but not often at all. I do have severe constipation and sour stomach. I do not tolerate meats well , especially red meats ( but this is also not new for me). My skin is dry & irritation around injection site."


"Right before and after getting the nexplanon I would lose sleep over reading the reviews on here. I am on a year long traveling trip and my doctor told me this would be the best option. After reading all the horrifying reviews I vowed that if I had a good experience I would come back and share since usually unhappy customers are more likely to write reviews. I think it really just depends on your body. For me so far it's been about two months and I've had zero side effects except for the fact that it took away my periods completely which exactly what I needed. Praise God! I am grateful."


"I have have been taking Viread 300mg for 14 months now. After 1 month of taking Viread, my DNA count was undetectable. I try to stay physically fit and workout everyday doing various things: weights, run, cardo. When I started taking Viread, I noticed a big decrease in endurance when working out with weights. Even with this side effect, I kept taking the drug and split my workout instead.

Recently, I started developing a feeling of nausea and dizziness and feels like it is getting worse and more frequent. I think I have to stop taking the drug.
"


"I have lost extensive weight and have lots of energy but my hair is falling out and is so brittle is  breaking off at the ends. My numbers have gone down but your hair is usually a good indication of your health.  If the medication is doing this to my hair what other long terms effects am i going to have that I am unaware of.

I am thankful that other people expressed their problem with hair loss also. I was told that I probably use too many chemicals on my hair."


"I had a total thyroid removal after cancer was found, five years ago. I also lost 2 out of 4 parathyroid glands in the operation which depletes my calcium intake. Please be aware we need our thyroids to survive if you stop medication and don't have enough supply naturally you will get very ill within a short period and end up getting something like pneumonia and possibly die.  I have been on it 5 years now and have slowly and steadily gained weight, this could be aging, having children, etc.  But have spoken to others who also tried to get weight off and couldn't do anything about it even with a personal trainer!. I am on 200mg a day for 6 days a week to suppress my TSH to stop cancer cells growing again."


"I could not bear the side effects I took half a pill once and was absolutely miserable for two days. I was so nauseous and tingly and I felt out of body. Maybe it would have worked if I stuck with it but it was not worth the side effect. Plus I have school to deal with. Dr is having me try lexapro. Btw I'm 18."


"I've been taking this medication for quite a while for Raynaud's. I was concerned about my naturally-low blood pressure but Doctor said it wouldn't be affected. Seems that is the case. As far as Raynaud's, there are a few medicines I take that I describe as "I'm sure it helps, I'm not sure how much, don't want to find out what it's like without it". Also, my Raynaud's is accompanied by Mixed Connective Tissue Disease to complicate matters."


"I just started taking this pill not yet through the first week, and already I'm covered in acne which I never had using the IUD. I decided I didn't want the IUD anymore after the five years were up because it poked my partner and is something I can't take out myself. Anyways Yasmin has caused me crazy acne like teenager status (I'm 25) and has caused me breast tenderness when I used to feel no tenderness at all. I read the reviews about gaining a cup size.. I hope that doesn't happen to me, I already have  DD's. We'll see how the next few months play out, but so far NOT IMPRESSED"


"I was on Cymbalta before this and made me numb. Took this starting at 10mg and on 40 mg now. Been taking since Dec, so two months now. Hard on stomach at first, running to the bathroom. This med like lifted the fog from my outlook. I mean like I actually feel good like I never have. Able to talk to people and initiate conversation whereas before I would give monotone answers to questions. I think clearer and my memory is better. This is a miracle for me. Not really any sexual side effects and I am male. I had bad sexual side effects with Cymbalta. I take it in the morning with breakfast and I find it goes in my body better with protein like eggs or sausage. It has the effect of energizing me. Pricey after insurance without the coupon card."


"I had a psychotic episode -- paranoia, free-floating anxiety, illogical and irrational thinking"


"I've had the implant a year and a half. For most of the first year I had no periods but spotting for months. For the last 7bor so months I haven't had a period or spotting. That's the great part about it. I'm getting it removed because I've gained a lot of weight. I ate and was active the same amount prior to getting the implant and was 130. I'm now at 155. I started eating better, drinking only water, exercise more and I continue to gain weight. I'm covered in stretch marks now and until being on nexplanon I've never had even one stretch mark. Sex drive is non existent. Moods are all over the place. I understand every body will react differently but I don't suggest this."


"2 years on Gleevec with minimal positive effect and maximum side effects. 3 months on Tasigna and swelling-gone, leg pain-gone, nausea-gone, I feel good. Tests show much improvement and my Doctor is now very optimistic. Twice a day regime and eating times are small problems.  My libido is back."


"This works!  I took a break, but am taking it again.  I am a 38 yr old female and started at 222 lbs and am 5'7 size 16.  In 6 month time I had lost 32 lbs size 12.  It calmed my cravings, I even stopped drinking wine.  I stopped taking for 4 months gained 10 lbs back...I've been back on it for about 2 weeks and have lost 5 to 6 lbs ....the weight gain was my own fault and I stopped taking this over the holidays."


"With Zioptan my intra ocular pressure fell, in one month, from R15 L14, to R12, L11. My ophthalmologist is delighted. He says that, if this result holds, I will be his third patient to experience a dramatic drop. He says that some people -- with hopes that I am one -- seem predisposed by heredity to an excellent response to Zioptan. No side effects."


"The product is an effective bullet as I tend to get pneumonia bi-annually due to a compromised immune system (Lupus). I have been diagnosed with Osteo-necrosis caused by the steroid usage. In addition, it tends to make me extremely jittery and anxious, extraordinarily dizzy, unable to focus, nauseous, and to have blurred vision. (These might be an allergic reaction to the product, but am unsure).

It HAS saved me many a trip for an extensive stay in the hospital and feel comfortable stating that while I have multiple side effects, the benefit most certainly outweighs them. "


"Used Clonidine Transdermal for 3 months, brought BP of 169/114 down to average of 135/90. Had swelling of face, redness/swelling/itching of eyes and blurred vision. Made it extremely hard to function with tiredness and inability to think, and worsened feelings of depression. After 3rd month, developed painful itchy rashes at patch site even with application of Benedryl spray before application. Became allergic to jewelry, deodorants and some foods. Trial of Lisinopril was a nightmare, so had to go back on the patch with worsened symptoms. Have been off for two days and pressure is spiking. I am to try another med, but am experiencing prolonged allergic reaction at patch sites and am nervous about the consequences."


"I started taking this a week ago and I have also been very sleepy. I had about 12 hours asleep and felt the need to take a nap that afternoon. I also have been feeling like my ovaries were tender and somewhat sore. It's not very painful but uncomfortable. I was also very moody."


"I started this medication on 3/4/16. Starting weight was 208. After a week of taking it, I've lost 10lbs. I weigh now, is 199. This pill works! Ive been eating small snacks and working out. So far, the only problems I've experienced is; dry mouth, dizziness, restlessness and slight tremors for the first few days. I'll hive an update, in about a month."


"Disclosure: This is just one person's experience. As such It does not have any scientific validity. However, I hope some scientists will consider some actual research on this.
     I have been taking Guaifenesin in 400 or 600 mg tablets at the first sign of a cold, and my frequency and duration of colds has decreased from several a year to one or less.  I am 68 years old, and in general good health.  Your results may not be the same.  Remember, one person's claims/results are pretty close to meaningless from a scientific research viewpoint."


"Well, I am back for my one month results. Starting weight 6/20/17 - 324. Today's weight -297. That's right!!! 27 lbs!!!. I have started to watch my calorie intake, I walk 3 -4 days with my kids, then the other days I am at the gym doing cardio and toning. I stopped drinking pop. I am up to a gallon and half of water a day. I cut the carbs way back. I have tons of energy, I feel great and everyone tells me that they see so much of a change in my appearance.
I would recommend this to anyone, as long as you are looking for a lifestyle change. Not just a quick weight loss. (I have had friends who took it for fast weight loss, lost half the weight I have and gained it all back when they stopped)! This is meant to help with changing your life."


"I got the implant October 31, 2007 and kept it in until February 2009.  I BLED the ENTIRE time with this implant.  I cannot say whether it's the best or worst, but it wasn't for me!  I was told to give my cycle at least 6 months to adjust--it never did.  So just be sure to discuss the pros and cons with your physician."


"I've been on Yaz for five months. My periods are regular, great! However, regularity isn't worth the side effects. I experience crippling cramps, nausea and vomiting, horrible break out/cystic acne around my period (I've never been acne prone), and insane mood swings... :( I don't taking it and it only got worse AH! Talk to your doctor and don't do it on your own!

Also, can I just say I think it's ridiculous the medical system labels menstruation effects as 'disorders' - last time I checked it's pretty natural. Is my uterus really that diseased, doc'?"


"I've been on this at 10mg for a few months to fight my hay fever. It has had some effect, my nose isn't running as frequently, but my eyes are watering and are itchy. If anything it has made my eyes worse. At 10mg it doesn't really do much."


"Administered an IV bolus of 600mg of Paracetamol to a patient in severe to moderate pain and patient suddenly started sleeping off but that was not expected so I checked and found the pulse unrecordable and BP not measurable. Quickly gave and IV bolus of saline and restored vitals and subsequently monitored patient for the next six hours. I think the effect of rapid administration IV should be hammered on."


"After taking this cough syrup, I woke up and I experienced the most awful panic attack. Fingers tingling, feeling 'weird' thinking I was at deaths door. The only explanation was the cough syrup, I was pondering whether to call 911 and didn't because I KNEW it was the Delsym and it probably would pass with time. Drank a lot of water to hopefully flush it out faster. I will NEVER take Delsym again. Would like to know what ingredient gave me such a violent reaction."


"It took me a long time before I had the courage to use this product. My Dr mentioned mirovosa to me. I wanted to find out more about it and began researching. After reading all of the horrible reviews I was very scared to even try this. But I was also tired of my red and makeup does not cover well. I was desperate and decided to give it a try.  After the first couple of days I was amazed. Though I kept waiting for the bad to come. So far my face has done pretty good. The mirvosa takes away most of the red.  For once my face looks like it used to before I had rosacea. The huge downfall is it only lasts for about 6 hours. I hope they can improve and make its effectiveness last a lot longer."


"Chantix was the best thing that happens to me, took it 3 months and I feel great smoke free after 35 years."


"Eyelashes are beautiful! You must be careful where you touch the brush, I was hitting outside of face (by eye) after applying and I grew hair there. No biggie, if you stop it goes away, just like eyelashes, if you stop, they go back to how they were pre-latisse."


"i've only been on this for a day or so now (40 mg twice a day), but i can already tell that it's helping to control my anxiety and delusional thoughts. i've been very tired and everything has a fuzzy/dreamy/dopey feeling, but i'm hoping these side effects subside with time."


"This stuff is a miracle worker. Had indigestion and was just really backed up for a days and was nauseous so I decided to get this to just clean my system out and boy did it do the job. Literally started working like 30 min after drinking the whole bottle. Drank it at about 10am and now it's almost 1am and I still been running back and forth to the toilet. I feel like I've used the bathroom about 25 times today LOL. I'm feeling refreshed and much better. I feel like I'm never gonna stop pooping. Make sure you're free for the entire day and can be home when you take this stuff"


"This has been a lifesaver for me. Due to a genetic problem that doesn't allow me to metabolize almost all SSRIs, I'm really limited in terms of what I can take to help with my panic disorder. I was on clonazepam about 13 years ago for 6 months. I went to therapy, got better, and weaned off without issue. I just started back on this medicine because of health issues, I've had a relapse of panic disorder. I take 0.25mg once per day, and I am no longer panicking and agitated all day long."


"I find it hard to say if it has really helped my pain and find that my anxiety level has increased as well as having suicidal thoughts.  "


"This is Betty Lue 2017Just to follow up on my post a couple days ago I got admitted to the hospital yesterday April 3, 2017 for a critical low blood level . Had to get transfuse 2 units now the doctor wants to give me more because it is still critically low.  Level went down to 6 .Still bleeding from depo.  This drug need to be off the market. All other birth control if you stop using it it will start to ware off but depo can linger in your body for weeks and months. This is very sad. I saw my GYN  on April 20th and he decided to do a D&C  . It was best decision ever after procedure  I bleed out what was left the  3 hours later it changed to spotting then light red spotting now today is April 8th no spotting . So get D&C if ur still bleedin"


"I have taken other reflux medicine.  My gasteroenterologist suggested I try this one.  This was a colossal mistake.  I'll try to tell you what happened yesterday and you can judge for yourself.  So I woke up the next day after taking it the previous night and felt  awful.    I felt like I was going crazy and my brain was a little bit messed up.  I couldn't think straight.   I felt like I wanted to crawl out of my skin.  My  fingertips were hurting. My muscles were aching.   I had a hard time talking.   The side effects were genuinely horrible, mentally and physically.   It was one of the worst days I've had in a long time.   I didn't take it after I went to bed and the next day and l woke up feeling fine.  Avoid this drug."


"I've been taking dulcolax for years now. Like everyone else I usually take two or three sometimes. Depending how badly puffy I feel that day. I also had severe abdominal pain that made me want to curl up in the fetal position. A good trick to this horrible pain is having an ice pack handy in your fridge. The moment I wake up with this pain (even though I don't always feel it) I rush to grab my ice pack (my first time was frozen peas lol) and placed it right on my abdominal and soothed the pain down until I was able to let my bowel movement lose. I sat on the toilet with the ice pack directly in contact where I felt pain. It works for me and iIhope it will work for you. Constipation is no fun but relieve is!"


"I've come to realise that the burning and itching is from the wipes and cream the oval insert is awesome, I just dont use the other stuff"


"The patches caused a severe rash leaving spots like I'd been branded. Diagnosed as Latex Intolerant."


"Had no side effects and found it extremely effective--maybe more than Oxycodone.

Is expensive, even with insurance, but worth it in my opinion."


"I contiued smoking while taking the starter week pack.  By the 4th day, it was like sucking on a straw.  I got no more pleasure from smoking, but I still wanted to smoke.  The only side effect was very vivid dreams.  I quit smoking when I started the 2nd week of Chantix.  I did crave cigarettes for the first 3 days.  Day 3 was very, very tough.  I was a miserable person to be around.  Day 4 brought NO cravings.  Side effects were vivid dreams of people I knew 20 years ago (pre-cigarettes??), foggy headed-ness, and the normal healing discomfort.  I finished the second week as perscribed even though I didn't feel the need for the drug.  The 3rd week, I took half a pill, morning and night.  The 4th week, half a pill in the morning. Smoke-free!"


"It took six months to my skin to get clear. The first 4 months were the worst, but now, I don"


"Before starting buspirone I read some awful reviews on it which made me not want to take it. I am now glad that I did start taking it as I've had zero side effects and it is slowly making me feel a little more human."


"I have found that it works great for my flare ups. It is to be retained all night, which isn't difficult as long as you do a full tap water bag enema first, empty, wait an hour or so and then inject the Rowasa enema.  If you just simply use the Rowasa with a full colon, it becomes quite difficult to retain. If you do the Rowasa immediately after the big enema, you have absorbed too much water and not the medicine of the Rowasa. Bottom line is this: It's no fun, but clean yourself out with at least one full bag enema first, wait and hour and then put it in. This always works for me. I hope it helps."


"Before taking this medication, I was progressively getting worse with bouts of diarrhea 3 or 4 times at least per day. The abdominal cramping was so severe I was bending over in pain. There was urgency and accidents which led me to not want to leave the house. It was getting difficult to work because sometimes I had an accident before getting to work and the embarrassment was beyond belief .After taking this medication 1 day, there was no more diarrhea, no more cramping, things were normal! I love the relief this has given me!"


"I have suffered anxiety for 10 years plus and for the last year had suffered from jelly legs whenever I'm in a shopping area or anywhere there's crowds of people, Lyrica has changed my life for the better no more worries, loads more confidence and no feelings of anxiety, would say it has improved my life 100%. "


"Going cold turkey I experienced insomnia ,sweating ,anxiety and very high pulse then I decided to get medical help. They gave me Librium 25mg for 4 times a day first three days, 25mg 3 times a day for the next 3 days 25mg , 25mg 2 times a day for the next 3 days , 25mg at bedtime for the last three days. Librium sure saved me from convulsing and ending up at the emergency or dead ! PS always add a good supplement of vitamin b complex 100mg, very helpful when you detox, alcohol prevents your body from absorbing vitamin B. Good luck !! One day at a time  :)"

"I have been having stomach problems and my doctor gave me a month sample of this. It doesn't seem to have any effect on my stomach, I have however been having mood swings. I stopped taking it and my mood was back to normal. Strange but true. This may work for others, but not for me."
