"I've had my implanon in for 3 years, and I am getting it removed next Wednesday. I didn't get pregnant the past 3 years, so it did its job. I did however gain 50 lbs in the first 3 months of having it and have kept the weight on this whole time, hopefully after its removal I will be able to lose some weight. I've also had more headaches since the implant, (3-4 a week) but I haven't had a period or any random bleeding these past 3 years."


"This is my second time around on this. I took it about 3 yrs ago for a full year and totally loved it, hence why I got back on it. This time it was a much different experience. The 3 months I was on it was constant breakthrough bleeding pretty much every single day. About 8-10lbs weight gain (fairly active, in my late 20s, eat clean). Sex drive was non existent. No acne, thankfully. I also experienced some depression, never suicide but just down and blue most days. I am switching to Microgestin Fe 1/20 because OB said Lo Loestrin may have been too low of a dosage for me."


"I am almost finish with my first bottle. I had no side effects. My appetite increased instead of decreasing. I am debating about getting another bottle."


"I have found Metrocream to be very effective in combating symptoms of rosacea, especially the pimple like lesions I get around my nose & chin area.  I use only when needed and notice after just a couple of applications a dramatic improvement."


"I have been on Effexor for the past 10 years - I started having panic attacks as a child although I didn't know at the time what was going on - when I was 17 the doctor prescribed Valium that I took periodically when my anxiety got really bad - finally when I was 40 the doctor suggested I go on a very low dosage of Effexor (37.5mg) because he was sure I had generalized anxiety disorder - what a difference this has made in my life - felt"weird" the first few weeks but now I have very little anxiety and really no side effects except maybe lower libido. I had no idea how much anxiety I had been living with all my life."


"I've had acne since 5th grade and at first it was on my forehead, then it spread to my chin and nose and I'm in 9th grade now. I have acne mostly on my cheeks and nose. I have a lot of scars on my cheeks and I tried Epiduo a year ago and it did not work for me at all. It made my skin red and dry and did not clear it. But my brother has had acne since the fourth grade and has tried everything from Proactive to Clearsil, Clean and Clear. Everything. He uses Epiduo and it has completely. COMPLETELY. Cleared his skin. He uses Neutrogena face bar, a moisturizer and Epiduo in the morning and at night. After 8 years of acne Epiduo has been the only thing to help him. I'm still trying to find something to clear my skin, hope this helped."


"I was prescribed Tramadol for back pain because I am allergic to NSAIDs. I was taking two 50mg tablets per day and noticed that my mental state also improved while taking this medication. My anxiety subsided and I found that I did not get upset even in stressful situations (I work in HR which is very stressful for me). It's been a miracle for me since I deal with anxiety issues almost daily. It puts me in state of calm, but I'm still me. The only side effects I've experienced while taking Tramadol have been entirely positive. I wish it was prescribed for anxiety disorders."


"I was prescribed this by both my Psychiatrist and Therapist at age 35 for Asperger's Syndrome.  It works like shock therapy - you will feel better just so you don't have to take this any more.  0.25 mg (Half of the lowest dose) causes, for me: stomach cramps, headache, dizziness, feeling like my heart was racing, the 'munchies' (I go eat lots of potato chips), falling asleep, then waking up disoriented, and dry mouth.  I can't imagine the highest dose.  I'd probably die.  I had very vivid dreams.  However this medicine seemed to cure my irritability and nightmares which is what it was prescribed for.  The side effects it causes, however, are worse."


"I've been on Belviq for one month. I've lost 29.5 lbs, and I'm thrilled. I've also stuck to a 1500 calorie diet.  The biggest thing it did for me was take away the thought of cravings. I would pay any amount of money to have these kind of results."


"Went on Celexa for anxiety/mild depression. I was very emotional. In less than 3 hours my I eyes became itchy, red and irritated. I tried to stick it out for a week, but I obviously had an allergic reaction. Doctor has me on Lexapro 10 mg, so we'll see how that goes."


"So I have been on the birth control for a month. The first 4 days I was so insanely nauseous. It would just hit at random times and be horrible. I've been having my period the entire time I've been taking it but just like a pantie liner a day is what I use. I haven't lost any sex drive. If anything it's increased! The medication overall seems great in writing but I have one concerning thing.. I'm having CRAZY mood swings. I cried the past couple nights for no reason at all and I just get super sad randomly. Or I'll just be super happy and then the next moment sad. I feel like I'm becoming depressed. But I'm just going to wait it out and hope it gets better."


"I had this inserted three days ago and I have to say the actual insertion was very painful but only lasted for a couple of minutes so that was fine.  What I am having difficulty with is are the horrible cramps I am still having four days later.  I want this to work and it to have a positive experience but this is worse than cramps before."


"I was on the ortho Tori cyclin lo all of my high school years. Never had acne, 3 day periods, no cramps, no bloating, and actually believed it was impossible to gain weight on it. Coming to college the price of $110 was too much so I went to the generic. 2 months in I've gained 20 pounds, horrible cramps, and have horrible acne. Switching birth controls after this pack."


"I just started Saxenda and have only taken 4 of the .06 doses. I have already lost 5 pounds. I am about 5'3" and started right at 200lbs. Now 195lbs. Seems promising, so far. Not really any side effects. I've had a little bit of stomach pain, but it was brief. No nausea or vomiting. My doc did say that the weight usually melts off of people, so we will see!
I took phentermine a few times. The first time I lost 15 lbs in a month, but it made my heart rate faster and it gave me very bad anxiety. I'm glad there's another option that doesn't have the bad side effects.

I do know that the cost is astronomical for Saxenda, so my doc is giving me samples for now. My private insurance doesn't cover it at all."


"Causes frequent nightime urination."


"After gallbladder surgery was prescribed this for at home pain management (I can't take Vicodin) and while it definitely kicks in after about 30 minutes it wears off way too fast. Halfway through my wait till the next dose timeframe pain is in full swing again. Ugh."


"Okay so my dermatologist just prescribed this medication for my skin today, however I do not have severe acne. I get breakouts near my menstrual period and thats it but it always leaves behind dark marks. So my biggest concern was having dark marks all over my face. Due to hearing all the complaints on here I will first test out a small area on my face and see how that works out. I suggest this for other people as well so you know what you are getting yourself into plus my graduation is in two weeks and I don't have time for breakouts that I wouldn't normally have."


"I had very good results from Minocin as far as my acne was concerned. My face started clearing up and was looking almost back to normal. I did experience the dizziness and frequent yeast infections while on this but thought it was worth it.  After about 3 months, I was feeling very bad, my joints all ached so bad I had decreased my activities and almost stopped dancing. My parents were having me worked up for Arthritis and I was having blood in my stool suddenly. My mom talked to a Doctor at work and found out it was the Minocin that was causing all the joint pain and probably a lesion in my bowels. I immediately stopped it and am now back to normal and have bad acne again."


"I'm from the UK so I don't pay for it but I had bleeding from April 2016 until the end of December 2016. It affected my life and relationship so much. I hated trying to have sex and feel good while bleeding non stop. Thank god it's finally stopped. Was told I'd have to take a pill alongside it to stop the bleeding or put up with it. The reason I got it was so I didn't have to take a pill so that would have defeated the purpose! Works well at preventing pregnancy though."


"I went through severe panic and anxiety that debilitated my life. I experienced shakes, suicidal thoughts, fear for no reason, fast throbbing heart beat, no sleep for ten days because of fear my body was dying, 38lb weight loss in 1month, vomiting, foggy mind, couldn't speak, and so much more. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I visited hospitals over 6 times with no answers but the doctor telling me I'm crazy smh. Went through gastic procedures and nothing was found but gerd which is a symptom of anxiety. I finally broke down and took the meds prescribed to me. Xanax was the only one that worked for a short time, and I had taken many medications. Clonazepam is working amazing with no side effects. I feel great along with Zoloft."


"This medicine may help but if I missed a day, or tried to get off it completely, worst experience ever.
It's basically pharmaceutical meth, try older meds like dexatrin or Ritalin.
Vyvanse withdrawals are awful so once you're on it it's hard to get off"


"I eat right after I take Byetta and if I stay away from the fatty greasy food I do not have any problems with loose stools. I love the fact my HUGE hunger is now GONE! I lost about 8 lbs but, gained only one pound back after Thanksgiving. "


"I've had the Mirena since 2004.  I had my first one removed after 3 years and was pregnant within a month!  At my 6 week appointment I had another inserted.  Three years later, we wanted another child and were pregnant in a couple of months.  Amazing.  I will admit, after the first one was inserted I cramped and it was miserable for two weeks.  Every one since went in easy and out easy.  I've had no period to speak of for years. I'm coming up on the five year mark and am totally planning on another!"


"The excruciating pain I had been experiencing with my periods, went away almost instantly with Sprintec, but I did have (painless) breakthrough bleeding that hasn't let up so I'm trying a different brand."


"About an hour after taking the recommended dose for a bad cough, I had massive watery diarrhea. Cough seems to be gone though."


"I'm 24 years old and have taken Adderall over the course of 10 years. I know the only side effect I couldn't control is the stunting of my growth. I'm 5'7" and I only grew 1/2 inch in high school. I'm given 90, 30mg monthly. It has always improved my grades, however knowing that tolerance builds I do not take it all the time. Remember you have to take care of your body, especially your heart and liver, because long-term use side effects are still not concisely known."


"First birth control I have ever tried and I love it so far. I've been on it for a few months. I noticed on here it has a lot of negative reviews, like people say everyone's body is different. Just as insight I'm 19 years old and around 155 pounds. This birth control did not make me gain or lose weight. I noticed I haven't gotten as much acne since I started. My skin is almost completely clear. The only negative side effect that I really noticed and that my bf noticed as well is that I've gotten more irritable and emotional around the days I'm about to get my period, something that didn't happen to me before. Honestly this isn't a terrible side effect for me personally it's extremely bearable. I would definitely recommend this pill"


"I only take as needed, and it usually works awesome. Even knowing i have it as backup reduces my anxiety. It works best if taken before a stressful event but having a TBI makes remembering difficult. It also works better for me since i don't have to take daily on a schedule like other anxiety medications"


"As my nickname says I have been very quiet and most of my life. Always worried and anxious since a child, I came to the US when on my 30s and years later, I think the stresses of life and my personality put me in a severe anxiety with depression and several panic attacks. I was thinking I would die!. Went to Psychiatrist did not trust on him first time, I did not want to take the medicine and I got worse! I started taking lexapro 10 mg, it helped me so much, I had that hope on it that I didn't remember side effects. I used also the benzodizepines and ambien to be calmer and get some sleep. Like 3 months later didn't take more benzo ,and/or ambien. I have been in this medicine since March 2014, today is March 2016. Been reduced now to half"


"It made my mania go away. I was less tense and more calm... but it seemed to increase my anxiety."


"This was my second YI. The first time I used the 3 day but stopped after day 2 because I felt so much better. So this time I decided to go with the 1 day to get it over with. I put it in right before bed and then, like so many others, read these terrible reviews. I braced myself for the worst and went to bed. I honestly didn't sleep very well because I was expecting to wake up in pain. But I didn't. No burning, minimal itching. I peed twice in middle of the night and made sure to wipe back to front. My only complaint would be the discharge, though it's to be expected. Just used a panty liner and no big deal. Woke up in the morning, took a shower and used the wipes and I feel no symptoms. I think it's trial and error but no complaints from m"


"So the first tiime i took half a pill I had no side effects. However, the second time I took 1/2 with an empty stomach and I had to go to the hospital. My heart was racing and I couldn't breath the pain in my chest scared the shit out of me enough to stop using it all together."


"Hi All, I gave this BC a 5 because while it didn't work for me. It might work for someone else. BC seems to be a by-person thing. I have two friends that liked this while my other friend and I did not work well on it. My friend and I both have ADHD and have had previous situational anxiety.   On this birth control I became very nervous all the time and was extremely sensitive. I cried at least 3 times a week over little things. Which is extremely not like me. I actually lost weight because of high anxiety. When I got it taken out, I turned around 180 degree. I can joke around and I feel like myself again. I have been off the medication for about 2 weeks now and have not cried or been nervous once. I feel stable."


"I always fall asleep reasonably quickly but wake briefly at the end of each sleep cycle (which get shorter as the night progresses) until about 2am when I remain awake for about 2 to 3 hours. With Belsomra I still wake at the end of each cycle but quickly fall asleep again throughout the whole night.
It took some trial and error to get the right dose. A 20mg tablet worked but left me sleepy the next day. 10mg (half a tablet) works well for a whole night without next day sleepiness and 5mg was ineffective."


"Made me lethargic and very thirsty. My thirst interfered with my sleeping. I had to drink in the middle of the night and use restroom. So, taken off this one."


"I can agree that the fatigue is noticeable. My biggest shock was the diarrhea. I hadn't planned for it, and luckily I was at home when it hit the first time. It was akin to the flushing out one gets when they are preparing for a colonoscopy. I was noticing my abdomen growling. I am a bit lactose intolerant, and this was similar to if I have cereal with milk. Then suddenly I had THE URGE!!!! I was wearing shorts, and just made it to the bathroom and was able to jump into the shower as I knew there was no way I'd be able to drop trou and hit the toilet, when it hit. It was as if a dam had opened. I just turned on the water, and slowly removed my clothes as wave after wave struck. Luckily, that first time was the worst. Now I'm prepared."


"I can move and reach without pain in my shoulders, I can sleep without pain, and I can be assured that I will not have to take narcotics for pain control."


"I had been so unwell off meds for over a year and vomiting daily due to bipolar. I thought vomiting was from physical illness. As soon as i started this med all bp symptoms left AND my stomach is settled. No sexual side effects. Old me is back. No sides! Miracle drug! Weight gain for me will be a pkus not negative"


"I have only been on Trinessa for 9 days and my skin is dramatically improving. I know that it may seem too early to tell but this is the best I've seen my skin in a loooong time. I have not changed my skin routine or diet, the only thing that has changed is getting on Trinessa.  My only con is that I get abdominal cramps here and there."


"So a lot of people only write about their poor experiences but let me tell you about my good experience. First if all, I got put on Nuvaring after I got pregnant while ON the pill (Saffryl- probably spelled it wrong) despite me taking it for two years at the same time daily, and taking OTHER measures to prevent me getting pregnant. It was with twins, too. I went to planned parenthood for an obgyn appointment because the local obgyn was booked out for over 6 months when it came time for me to start birth control again. They gave me THREE Nuvarings for FREE. I didn't even ask for them for free, I was willing to pay for the script at my pharmacy. And ever since, they've been a wonderful alternative to the pill. Don't let cost deter you."


"Been on the shot for 6yrs Doctor told me I've been on it to long so I didn't get my last shot in July, still waiting for my period and they don't know what to tell me when I ask how long. Never had acne before, now I do and definitely gained weight. As a birth control I love it. Never had a period and don't remember to have to take daily pill."


"This birth control has made my life a living hell and I am hysterically crying as I write this. I had clear skin before this pill and now I don’t even want to leave the house my acne is so bad. My period lasts a month when it used to be bad at 8 days. My cramps have been even worse to the point where I have to scream into my pillow. I gave it some time but it’s tearing down my mental sanity too quickly so I cannot stay on it any longer."


"I have been struggling with pain and fatigue from soft tissue damage after auto accident. Dr. Prescribed numerous medications. This one by far is at the top of the list as far as effectiveness and no side effects. Thank goodness I have it!"


"after 2 weeks of 2 tubes per day, application my blood serum levels did not change one bit. my normal non medicated levels would range from 208ng/dl to 305. after 2 weeks of application of testim gel my blood results came back with 248ng/dl. The constant tack and odor of this product, plus its ineffectiveness makes me wonder why it is still on the market."


"I got my implant in September 2014. In the beginning, I experienced irregular periods, but nothing too alarming. Things started to get bad towards the end of January 2015. I started gaining weight, tired all the time, and my sex drive is almost non existent! I've gained 23lbs since then, and no matter how hard I try, I can't lose it, and just keep getting heavier. I have a ridiculously large appetite, and my acne has become painful and very obvious. I'm not myself anymore. When I'm not working (which I do every day, very physically active job), all I want to do is lay down and do nothing. I never used to be like this. I'm bleeding almost constantly, and my memory is shot. I want this thing out!"


"I started taking lamictal for my unspecified bipolar disorder a few weeks ago. The results have been remarkable, I could feel the medication start work a few hours after the first dose and it was definitely more than just a placebo effect. I was less flighty and everything just seemed brighter and clearer. My thinking has cleared up and my mood is well controlled even while traveling, which is when hypomania usually sets in for me."


"I was prescribed this during a bad mixed episode and it did wonders for me. It worked within the day! My only complaint is the sedation side effect. I get knocked out within two hours of taking it, so I take it at night. I also find that you can't take it with carbonated drinks, or else you get nauseous."


"First of all , if you go to a doctor and request this medicine, he/she will see this as drug seeking behavior. It is an opiate . The only difference between Tussionex and Vicodin is the antihistamine in the Tussionex. It is highly addictive. I should know ...I have been to drug treatment two times for my addiction to Tussionex. I didn't take it as prescribed though - worked my way up to 3oz. Each day - sometimes twice a day. Be very careful."


"This med besides Effexor is the only one which can handle my destructive anxiety and depressiom without making me sleepy and tired through the day. Actually, i don't feel tired at all! I'm sleeping 4 hours per night and waking up really energetic. Migraines, wet hands, suicide thougts

 body ache, tingling fingers, shortness of breath... all gone.

Side effects were: increased appetite, retarded ejaculation, sinusitis, skin problem (bearable). After a month, just the ejaculation problems persists"


"I was excitied to try the Breo Ellipta.. I have severe emphysema & 73 years old.. At first I found that I could breathe longer during the day without using my rescue Proair so much during the day... After 6 days, I found that when excerting myself for a longer period of time, ( grocery shopping) that I would run out of air...My chest felt tight & my Proair didn't seem to rescue me as before...It was a little frightening..."


"Since I graduated high school, I have been on a number of antidepressants.  So far Celexa is the only one that relieved my anxiety and left my sex drive alone. I've been getting better sleep at night, but I feel a little tired during the day at times. But that definitely beats staying up all night with racing thoughts. I like it so far."


"I'm on the fence about this medication, I used it for generalized anxiety disorder which was exacerbated after my mother passed away unexpectedly.
Well I have to say, I was shaky like I was just as anxious, so I though it was the anxiety, so I stopped the medication after 6 months and I am not shaky anymore, I also feel like everything is clearer.
I was on a very light dose 2.5mg three times a day.  Maybe I did not take enough.
So he gave me Lexapro, which I have not started, I am holding out, when I get anxious I take a half of a .25 xanax and it keeps the anxiety away.
So if I was to say I don't think this medication helped very much.  Maybe at a higher dose, I don't know.  I am skeptical about taking anything like this."


"I was originally just on the regular XANAX for year's and at first it helped and then it wore off and wasn't affective. My Doctor searched and searched for another medication that would be very effective especially because  I have "LUPUS" and have been having severe anxiety and depression I really had to be on something before I stressed my "Lupus" to flair up! So XANAX XR was recommended , and OMG this XR is so amazing and very effective.  I absolutely love it! It helped with anxiety, depression and sleep! I t works wonders and I totally recommend it to anyone."


"I tried Qsymia for 9 days. I lost 8 pounds but had too many side effects. I felt like I was going to pass out at church one Sunday. I got extremely agitated. That was just NOT me. I stopped taking it because I got into an argument with the pharmacist and cried all the way home. I turned into someone I didn't like."


"It seems that using Abreva is a hit and miss for me. I always apply it at the first sign of tingling. Last time I used it, it stopped the Cold Sore immediately. This time, didn't have an ounce of affect! My optional cure when I realise the Abreva is not going to work is Carmex. Amazing!"


"I recently decided to get back on this pill, after I was off it for a few months. My experience has been slightly different from the first time I took it. As it has in the past, my skin has completely cleared up, however this time around I am feeling extremely nauseaus, lost my sex drive, and I am constantly and randomly just bursting into tears. This might just be temporary side affects, hopefully it gets better soon..."


"Cymbalta has been the single most helpful medication I have used for depression. It has enabled me to return to work and my clarity of mind has much improved.  My physical pain has also been tremendously reduced and no longer takes all my energy.  Thank you Cymbalta - You really have saved my life."


"I have been on Oxybutynin for hyperdydrosis since September of 2013.  It has changed my life.  I went to Mexico this past December and was amazed at how much less was sweating I had.  Prior, I was becoming a recluse as it was so embarrassing to go out in public.  My air conditioner ran non-stop all summer!  Every now and then I "break" out in a sweat, but it is mild and not a big deal.  The one side effect I have with it, is that `after taking 2 x 5mg a day I get extremely tired and feel kind of like  I am "out of it".  I now take it at bedtime, as it actually helps me fall asleep quicker (I had terrible insomnia as well).  Mouth is very dry, but it has forced me to increase my water intake, which is good anyway.  This is such a relief!"


"On it for 5 days and feel like a different person. I'm actually happy for the 1st time in years! Take Celexa and trazodone also but call this my miracle pill. Just hope it keeps working."


"Hi, I'm 31 female. Just shy of 5'4. I started phentermine on 12/28/15 weighing 184, now I'm in the middle of my 9th week and I weigh 165, so in 2 months I lost 19lbs, my goal is 145. I weigh in at my clinic every Monday evening. I do cardio & weights 4 to 6 days a week. The first 3 weeks I ate strictly protein and veggies with some fat, I've slowly added in complex carbs and fruit. I drink at least 90oz of water a day and have 3 meals and 2-3 snacks, the days I don't work out only eat the 2 snacks. The side effects I've had are dry mouth, dry skin and constipation (despite my water and fiber intake). I recommend the smooth moves tea by traditional medicinals, but test it one a day where you can be near a bathroom so you know how you react."


"I was on trulicity .75 for two weeks and was just upped to 1.5...my first injection went fine till I woke up next morning with severe body aches in all my joints and having stomach aches and diarrhea. That lasted for about a week. I took second .75 shot and no body aches but still get the occasional stomach ache and still having diarrhea, have to stay close to a bathroom. I lost some weight even tho only been two weeks, but maybe just because I'm on the toilet so much seems more goes out than in. My sugars didn't go down as much as I wanted but are definitely better. So in a few days I start 1.5 I hope this will do the trick."


"I have been on Aviane for 10 years and have never experienced breakthrough bleeding or had any problems. I actually have lighter periods and get them on the exact same day and time every month. It is great."


"I got my IUD inserted 9/13/17 so yesterday:) and my overall experience was not too bad! Expect that when they insert there will be an overwhelming burning , bad cramp that lasts really over 15/30 seconds, my doctor was amazing and made my entire insertion experience within under 10 mins, just know, the medicine they prescribe you to take the night before WILL cause cramping, I didn't even think of it so I went to bed all peaceful and woke up sweating to very bad cramps, and then the the day you get it expect bad cramps for a couple hours and it'll go away, and then the all today I didn't experience any cramping what so ever and then surprise! Spotting = period on the right time, cramps are back! It's very exhausting but no babies for me!"


"Best product out there however dont buy the pump bottle it is very wasteful .It pumps out 4 times more than you need and the tip clogged  overnight and hardens ,more waste.Its very expencive for the amount you get so no use to be wasteful .Buy the squeeze tube instead"


"I quit smoking more than a year and a half ago after smoking more than forty five years up to and including 3-4 packs a day I have never looked back other that as I go out the door I check my shirt pocket to make sure I have my lighter and my smokes! Not! my life has changed forever for the better now that I a a non smoker"


"NOT RATING IT HELP ME. I started this a week ago. 3 days after I started I woke up horribly nauseated but no vomit so I sucked it up and went to work just to get there and throw up repeatedly for about two hours. Once that stopped I was fatigued. Then exhausted. Then the migraines started. I had minor migraines in my forehead that got worse with light or after waking up. That went on for three days. That stopped two days ago and yesterday I started feeling weird cramping in my left side just below my ribs and it went into the tops on my thighs and hips. Today the cramps are still in my side (not painful just uncomfortable and concerning) and possible constipation. Wondering if any of this matches anyone else pls and thanks."


"With a mild y.i. and in the begining of one a one single dose works wonders and fast at relieving symptoms. With a severe infection more doses are needed and it can take up to 7 days to clear up as in my case. Best choice in treatment for vaginal yeast infection."


"This medicine has been a God send for me. If I miss a dose, my pain is severe enough to inhibit normal daily activities. Along with my DSMO treatments, I am slowly feeling better!"


"I've been using this medication for a year and have seen improvement! My big toenail completely fell off prior to starting the medication due to how bad it was. It has slowly been growing in healthier."


"I had severe depression on and off past few years. This time round it was unbearable and I was literally falling apart mentally. Sadness and torment, that would not go away, anxiety and lack of sleep for over a year etc. I refused taking synthethic meds and decided to give niacin a go.
it worked pretty much instantly. I started on about 300mg (severe flush like sunburn and itchy skin), then calmness. I was upping the dosage almost each time, and flushes eased eventually.
 Now (2 weeks later) I take 1500mg 2-3 times a day and the flush is slight with warm face and chest.
Sadness is gone and I feel much more "with it". It seems to be blocking unwanted thoughts. hands down- a true depression cure."


"The first time I took it, I took one pill upon waking up. I literally stayed in bed the ENTIRE day. I could hardly open my eyes, let alone lift my head off the pillow. Thank goodness it was a weekend and I didn't have to work! I chalked it up to a bad morning sickness day and took two at bedtime that night. The next morning, it wasn't quite as bad but it was still a struggle to get through the day.

I wasn't nauseous, but I was so fatigued and sleepy, and just felt "bad." I realized it might be the diclegis, so I didn't take any more after that. So now I'm back to all-day nausea (no vomiting), but at least I can function!

I only recommend diclegis if you've got major vomiting/HG. Otherwise, the side effects just aren't worth it."


"I’ve been taking Victoza since early August for type 2 diabetes. At a once daily dose of 1.2mg it has been moderately effective at lowering my blood sugar to 130 or less. It’s greatest success so far has been helping me to lose weight. I’m down 20 pounds so far without diet or exercise. My appetite has plummeted since I started Victoza. I simply cannot eat anywhere near what I used to. I often end up skipping meals simply because I’m not hungry.

Side effects, including nausea for a few weeks when I first started taking Victoza and ongoing mild constipation, are easily manageable considering the benefits of taking this drug."


Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation

"I Loved these vitamins, I took them for both my pregnancies and I asked my both of my sisters to take them, they were recommended by a friend, and I think they have a big effect on the baby health."


"I started Contrave & during the 2nd week became so nauseated that I had to stop taking it. About 4 weeks ago I started to take it again, and have stuck with just the ONE morning pill and have been doing great...I've lost 12 pounds. BUT and here is the biggest thing for those complaining they are "NOT LOSING WEIGHT" I'm also doing this with the Weight Watchers program, meaning I am taking accountability for the food I am putting into my mouth, I'm eating more fruits & veggies, I am not going to the drive through of McDonalds or eating medium size pizza's expecting this medication to help me lose weight. YOU have to change your habits or the medication won't do anything for you. I suggest taking this with a 'diet plan' or 'eating program'"


"Fantastic drug. I can take it for ages and come off with zero effects. Everyone is different.
I'd take these over any anti depressants any day.
You only live once and what's the point of suffering I'd stress to a Dr if you're not allowed them. I have them for anxiety/spasms.
Make sure if any brand you get/ask for actavis.. others are useless. Chemists/NHS like the useless ones as they're cheap"


"I just has Distal bicep surgery, extremely painful. The injury that lead up to surgery was painful. Doctor put me on Percocet 5/325 then my surgeon gave me Vicodin after the repair, well this did nothing. Went back to the Percocet, pain gone within 20-30 minutes. Now we are post-op 7 days pain pretty intense after cast and staples removed 1 tab every 8 works great for me."


"DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICINE.  I had one shot of invega two years ago. I have quit my jobs, dropped out of school, and hate myself.  I now suffer irregular muscle movements, inability to resensitize(process new information), hypertension, and slow metabolism.  Don't take this medication. Don't take this medication. Don't take this medication.

Do not take this medication.

If you don't believe me then search keep searching invega sustenna reviews.

Thousands of negative reviews."


"I had depression and anxiety since 2 years . Tried prozac and from 3rd pill it was terrible ! Severe headache ! Changed to zoloft and started increasing dose gradually from 12.5 till 25 then 50 . Noticed improvement in about 1-2 month . I recommend this drug . Tried to stop it 2 month ago and I relapsed so am taking it now again hoping it could work again .. However my insomnia is killing me !!!!"


"Didn't work for me. In fact, made things worse. Caused bleeding at a time when that was no longer an issue for me."


"I've tried a lot of other medications for my depressions an anxiety and they made me feel sick to my stomach. So I would stick to it. I was to busy trying push through my duties as a mother and wife. I couldn't feel sick to my stomach plus depression & anxiety. So when the Dr gave me Zoloft I was hesitant. I did take it the first day and I slept really well  with NO drowsiness the next morning. I felt happy and focused. I was able to do the simple things like figure out what to cook for dinner. I have energy and a clear mind. I started with 50mg but I think I was getting used to it. So I started taking 100mg and so far so good! My husband notices a difference and loves it. It wouldn't hurt to at least to try it. I'm sooooo glad I did."


"I suffered from General Anxiety Disorder since childhood and this medication save my life. I feel calm and collected, and my family and friends say it's nice to see me smile again. I went from being nervous and anxious about everything to relaxed and able to go back out in my community again."


"I had this implanted in late July 2013 and spotted the next week for a day. I haven't had a period since then until today, which is slight spotting. It is now January 22nd 2014. The insertion was painless (the numbing shot hurt more then the actual implant). The week following wasn't so bad just sore in the insertion area. My Acne has increased a bit about 2x as bad as it was (which was like 3-5 zits and very few blackheads per period). The other problem is the weight gain, In the first two months on it I gained at least 10 pounds. Other than that this was incredibly  convenient. I am super forgetful, hate taking pills, and have a crazy schedule so going to the Dr. was hard. It is incredibly effective though."


"IT started in the spring of 1996. I began having stomach pains horribly EVERYDAY. Nausea. I had made a major life change in going into something with a 4 and 1 year old that I did not want to really do but my wife wanted BAD... By September of that year, I had become in such pain and lost 50lbs that my intern put me in the hospital for one week with EVERY test of the digestive system. Long story short, I left the hospital with a diagnosis of GAD and secondary IBS.  Went home and didn't sleep one week, so doctor put me in a private mental home. They put me on 1mg klonopin and 20mg paxil and 50mg Trazadone for sleep. In 5 days, NO stomach problems at all. Ate 3 square meals, played ball, went to gymn. WAS ALIVE AGAIN!!!"


"There's no such thing as a miracle cure for opiate addiction however when Subutex is taken as directed, withdrawal symptoms can be avoided completely and set you on your way to a drug free lifestyle."


"I've been taking 60mg of Adderall a day for 14 years now. It's a miracle! I don't think I would have made it through high school or college without it. I started when I was 14 and starting high school. I loathed getting up early, but shortly after taking my pills I was awake and motivated to get ready and go about my day. It made boring classes seem more interesting. It gives you this focus and drive to be productive.I don't feel like myself without them. I'm cranky, unmotivated, eat and sleep a lot if I don't take it. Just be cautious with dosage. You do develop a tolerance to it over time. If your blood pressure goes way up and you feel jittery or shaky, your taking too high of a mg. People should start with 10 or 20mg at first."


"Ive been taking this medication for 5 days now. My reason for taking it was a skin graft. Though its early in the treatment,I am happy to report no noticable side effects. I will repost closer to the completion of treatment on results."


"Absorica worked right away. After the second month, I was almost acne-free. However, at the end of my fifth month, it has stopped working. Acne is coming back on my back, chest, shoulders and face. I'm on 60 mg a day, so I might up my dosage. I am now very skeptical of the product, and I am preparing to just accept my acne, because there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. Even isotretinoin didn't save me."


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"I have had 20 colonoscopies or so and have had mostly Golytley 4 liters in the past. Hands down this is the easiest prep I have ever had to do. Doing a split prep was awesome and in the past I had nausea, vomiting, and severe pain. With Suprep I didn't even cramp. Clear liquids the day before the procedure helps.
I would pay full price for this, you have no idea how much better it is than what has been available in the past."

"This is a miracle drug. I have diabetes and have had troubles keeping an erection for a number of years. I started taking Viagra about a year ago and the results are fabulous. I started with a 50 mg pill, but me just being me wanted more. So now I take the 100mg tablet and the results are GREAT! I have multiple orgasms and so does my lover. Our relationship has inproved 500% and would not trade it for anything in the world. Thank you Mr Viagra. You are a genius!"


"Went in yesterday for a upper/lower colonoscopy. I'm a very nervous person, I was told if I gargle with the numbing stuff for your throat it saves on getting a lot of propofol. Well I remember feeling weird, off I wen,t woke up in recovery. I couldn't believe how fast I woke up. "


"If I could give this birth control a 0 I would because of the side effects.  I have been on it for almost 3 months and I have developed horrible acne all over my chin and side of my cheek. It is red, bumpy, and painful. Makeup won't even cover it effectively. It looks like I have some sort of skin disease. Nothing helps it to go away. I am intensely moody all  the time and cry almost daily. I have constant bloating and seem to be gaining weight even though I have not changed my diet or exercise amount. Stopping this immediately and going back to Tri-cyclen. I wish I had never taken this."


"I read your reviews before even purchasing the product... I normally see the doctor when having these symtoms but couldn't find the time this week. The previous reviews terrified and tickled me at the same time. I was LOL while reading but didn't want to experience the intense burning described. I decided I would wait for Monday to see my doctor and get the Rx pills until I spoke with a good friend and asked her if she ever tried it. She said she felt tingling but the next morning she was 100% better. My symptoms were mild but I was eager to get rid of them. So after speaking with her I went to buy the monistat 1. A few hours later a felt the itchy tingling but this morning I am 100% symptom free! I would definitely use it again."


"Was given Arthrotec 75 (1x/day) for residual pain following a car accident.  Got to the point I could barely walk most days and, on my best days, would have very little endurance for walking or even standing.  By day 2 of taking Arthrotec 75, I felt like I was made whole again. It is my wonder drug. Found I can skip a day and be okay if not too much physical activity, and at times have taken a 2nd dose midday during more strenuous activities.  No side effects that I have noticed.  I don't like taking medicines so I hope I won't need to take these for too long, but so grateful for them right now.  I can actually do things for myself again."


"Was given this medication for anxiety. Didn't help. Made me sleep all the time. Bad case of dry mouth and extreme mood swings. Had to stop taking it."


"I had a horrible experience I got it done last Friday 6/17/16. They never mentioned anything about it being painful and they never offered me any pain pills and there was no injection of analgesics to the cervix like I've read other people getting (after the fact) It literally felt like I was going to give birth it was very painful and I'm a tough cookie and I'm really upset that they had to open up my cervix to do it. Yes they open up your cervix. I thought they just inserted it through the cervicle whole but no... It's only been in a day and I'm having really bad cramping and headaches. I wish I never got it. I'm getting it removed ASAP.  If you do plan to do it make sure you take 800 mg ibuprofen before hand."


"Great medicine and Abvee/Abbott has great customer service, PAP and sharps Biohazard disposal programs. 50 year old male, diagnosed at 13, Tall 6.3 (6.2 in the morning). Humira has worked for me for many years. However my body became tolerant as my disease progressed my Doc changed it to 1x/10 days but this medicine is less flexible as it relates to dosage as opposed to Remicade. [The only downside to this, thus less then 10.] After trying all of the various biologics for Ankylosing Spondylitis (Remicade, Enbrel, and Humira) in my decades long journey with AS. I have found, it's back to Remicade again because of dosage flexibility."


"This is the 7th day that I'm taking this birth control. I still don't know how will it affect on my period but so far it made me break out on my chin and around my mouth. It gives me bad headaches and makes me depressed. There is no way I will continue taking this birth control."


"Year 1 no effect on my weight, years 2 & 3 I experienced steady weight gain (15kg / 33 pounds). Other main side effects were: somnolence, swearing, electric-shock sensations in my brain and my body, twitching.

However, SSRIs had never worked well for me, and venlafaxine was a fantastic alternative. I became very complacent in general on this drug.

The withdrawal symptoms I had were horrendous - it was like coming off narcotics. . Vomiting, shaking, muscle spasms, everything hurt. At one point drifting in and out of consciousness. But if I hadn't taken venlafaxine I probably wouldn't be here today. I would take it again if I had to.

Dose 150mg. Female, I was 27 when I went on Effexor XR and 30 when I stopped. I turn 31 next week."


"I got this implant 3 1/2 months after having my first child. I had lost nearly all my baby weight and was continuously losing, that is until I had this put in. I have gained 25 lbs and no matter what can not lose it. Also my face started to break out around a month after getting the implant and just keeps getting worse. The worst side effect is I spot at least 25 days a month, sometimes I will bleed up to 3 months straight, stop for 2 or 3 days then start bleeding again. I have also noticed a rapid decrease in sex drive and in the last 6 months less sensitive and I have a very hard time getting turned on,  which is probably the cause of the lack of sensitivity.
I had implanon for 3 years and loved it but I hate nexplanon."


"I just started taking phentermine yesterday 2/8/2011.  When I weighed myself yesterday morning the scale said 273.0 I took the pill and my appetite was completely gone. I ate a very small breakfast and had to force myself to eat anything for lunch.  When dinner came I wasn't hungry but I figured I should eat something.  I drank 9 bottles of water because my mouth was so dry.  I didn't have any issues sleeping and I didn't notice any change in my energy level. When I woke up this morning I headed straight to the scale and I'd already lost 3lbs. The scale said 270.8.  I'm very excited and super motivated to continue."


"It has changed my life it's a miracle I tried everything. I'm a new person."


"I've had auditory hallucinations all my life.  Was on Geodon previously and had to keep upping the dose to keep the hallucinations and voices at bay.  With Invega, I'm on the lowest dose and have an auditory hallucination maybe once or twice a month. Despite the risk of side effects, this is a wonder drug for me. I've had no side effects."


"Hello everyone ,
I've been on brintellix for a year.  Okay, it's great for my mood but terrible for doing activities I use to enjoy like working out and walking .  I just want to sleep all the time.  Seriously, all I've been doing is sleeping, going to work and sleeping some more lol  .  I did stop smoking for 9 months so far so I guess my mood is good to be able to do that!
I am not sure about staying on this drug.  I think I want to go back on cymbalta but my dr wants me to stay on brintellix   I'll figure this out.  I'm sick of being tired all the time .
Good luck everyone
Ps... The first 3 months on it, I threw up and had bad esophagus pain"


"So my first seizure was when I was 13, I have tried many meds but this one seemed to work the best. BUT as the years have passed, my memory has been going a lot and it seems to be getting worse and worse. I took it upon myself to stop the medicine cold turkey (I'd  been on for 5-6 years now so its NOT recommended).. and yet I haven't had any symptoms of a seizure and my memory is starting to come back. My sister was also on it but for depression, she almost lost her eye sight because she missed 1 day of taking it. So please be careful, and do your research on each drug that you are about to go on."


"Lexapro is great. I started when my panic attacks and depression made me unable to function at all and I was too afraid to leave my house. My thoughts would race and I was just a mess. I started on 5mg for a week which was like nothing but then upped to 10mg and after 3 weeks I was beginning to feel less anxious and more stable. After 6 weeks I'd say I felt normal. I'm going to try come off them after being on them for a year and a half. I haven't had a panic attack in over a year so for panic disorder they work fantastically well. I've experienced no side effects with this drug."


"I was on Cipralex for 3 years and it destroyed my life. I lost 3 years of my life leaving school and doing nothing but sit at home worthless. Then I switched to Zoloft, I felt better on Zoloft but still the same complaint of being a “zombie”. I have never felt it is me for the past 10 years. I had tried getting off these drugs so many times but everytime I do it I feel better for the first few months then I collapse, again. It is very hard to be on them, and to be off them at the same time. My advice for you is to try them at last. Never start with antidepressants. Thank you and good luck."


"BEST ANTIDEPRESSANT EVER! I've tried many different antidepressants in the past.  The only one I could ever tolerate was Pamelor.  Although it made me mentally foggy and I put on a lot of weight, I used it for 19 years, but finally stopped taking it.  Amazingly, I didn't fall into a depression for 4 years. Recently, however, I fell into a very deep depression after resigning from a job that I loved.  Being 61, I knew I had no chance of finding employment.  I finally sought the help of a physician who had me try Viibryd, as well as Valium for anxiety.  After completing the trial pack, I had ZERO depression.  The only side effect I had was a little stomach upset, which went away soon.  TRY THIS MEDICATION for one month. You won't be sorry."


"I was experiencing crazy discharge with no odour or other symptoms. Just watery discharge. Within hours of taking this medicine the discharge stopped. I'm so happy!"


"I have had a great experience with Sandexa. My doctor is the best in the world too and monitors me very closely.  I have lost 26 pounds so far and now fitting into clothes I have been able to wear for over nine years.  I have had a little bit of constipation but I take a stool softener every other day and I am fine.  I am working with my doctor to ensure I do not get high blood pressure or diabetes because I already have kidney problems.   Great medication and thanks so much to my doctor for recommending it."


"I've been on it for about 4 months I'm also on depression pills anxiety pills and sleeping pills the only side effect is my bizarre dreams like cows jumping over fences its worth the money its like how much do you spend a month on cigs"


"I started taking taking Q in February of 2015.  When my endocrinologist and I began my plan for this weight lost I was at 350lbs.  I followed all his recommendation and guidelines.  I even joined a gym and started working out 5 dayds a week for 2 hours a day.  Cut out the sweets, sugary drinks.  I admit it was hard but like he told me I could have them here and there as a reward for achieving goals I set and reached.  He was right.  I go back to see him this September 2015 and I can't wait to see his face when I weight in.  I got on my scale and it said I'm now at 297.5lbs.    Not only am I'm proud of the work but this medication does work.  I was really skeptical at first and wanted the weight lost surgery. But now I'm so glad I didn't."


"Wow this cream works I have pcos and after years of plucking every day as the hair was so bad my doctor prescribed vaniqa . The difference is very noticeable after under 2 months."


"Severe, chronic pain with Fractuted
 L3 veterbrae. Given to me for pain relief which caused SEVERE INCREASE OVER AN ABOVE CHRONIC PAIN. It did NOTHNG to curtail severe pain which added to chronic of 40  yrs duration and caused disruption of an entire medical unit. Causing AMA discharge to spare other pts!"


"My blood pressure was 270/120 and had to work through many drugs before this one lowered my anxiety and blood pressure. At 20 mg a day usually take all at night time for sleep to. Side effects sometimes headache. Strong addiction and should be weaned off it slowly or your head will hurt non stop for a month. A nightmare to stop cold. It lasts eight times longer than Xanax or Klonopin they are two brothers not to mess with. At first you may have the sedated effect before you become more resistant to the drug. Where you get the drug also makes a difference. Some stores give the yellow tablet which melts in mouth as clean as water. Other stores have an orange tablet that tastes like paper. Walmart has the good one and some grocery but not CVS."


"Works wonders!!"


"So far so good been on medication for 15 days have not seen a change test but I'm also working out and eating better to help my outcome. Along with taking fiber and protein daily. Only down side I had this far is very minor soreness to the injection area. Oh and follow the direction to stay below the belly button line because anything above will leave a large bruise on the skin."


"I have stage 4 Prostate caner, which spread to my lymph nodes and tumors on my spine. Had no surgery.  PSA started out at 144 after using this medicine and Elligard shots. My PSA is 2. Hats off to this medicine going on 2 years."


"I am happy with the sleep I'm getting on this medicine."


"I am 63 and have used this for years.  Works great for me with no side effects."


"Had unprotected sex with my girlfriend and she took the Plan B pill the day after, like 13 hours later. I couldn't sleep and I was very nervous. She got her period a week later, It was heavy, which I guess is also a good thing haha. If your reading these reviews to make you feel better, I've been in your shoes. Just have faith in it, it'll work don't worry."


"I am 41 and I am peri-menopausal. My GYN prescribed Gildess fe 1/20 for me to "balance" my hormones. I have tried other bc pills in the past, including Gildess but had to stop them because of the crazy side effects. But this time when I tried it I was spotting, I got weird feelings in my head, I had back pains, flu-like symptoms, chest pain and terrible anxiety. I stopped taking it after about two weeks. I feel horrible!  How long before I leaves my system?"


"From my experience Eylea is not as easy to inject as Lucentis, but the results speak for themselves.  I was able to go four months without an injection after only two shots of Eylea.  It completely dried up both of my eyes.  Lucentis never did this for me and I was getting monthly injections for over two years.  I have varied side effects from the injection ranging from eye redness to redness, itching, burning, and feeling like something is scratching my eye.  Giving the injection slower helped some."


"I have severe anxiety and at times, I can't even hold still. I completely avoid going out due to the severity of it.

Tried 1mg of xanax under the tongue, and within ten minutes, I could feel the anxiety getting better. Zero negative side effects."


"I was on Seasonale and switched over to Tri-Sprintec and been on it for a month now. I've been having horrible nausea every day, headaches and feeling irritated."


"Imitrex worked for me only when I could take the medicine at the onset of a migraine. If I had a full blown migraine, it didn't help."


"Worked well and fast, easy to use, no stank, quick dry and GREAT price with discount card."


"After permanent SCI (Spinal Cord Injury), I've had a lot of experience with pain. Hydromorphone 4 mg was prescribed for break-through pain and has worked pretty well. I agree, better learn to live with a level of 4 (out of 10). I don't worry about addiction, I've got this the rest of my life, but every doctor I've talked to warns of building a tolerance; better learn to live with a little more pain now rather than more pain later."


Polyethylene glycol 3350 with electrolytes

"This is the second time I have had to take moviprep since October. After really struggling with the taste first time round to the point it made me sick. The nurse recommended putting lime cordial in each glass. She also recommended making the prep with flavoured water (not red berries) I made it up with lemon and lime flavoured water then chilled it for a few hours. In each glass I have added the lime cordial and ice. I have used a jumbo straw and had water in a glass just in case. I can honestly say the lime is brilliant. Although there is still a slightly salty taste it is no where near as bad as previously. I have managed the first litre and actually feel I can cope with the next one. I hope this helps."


"I've been taking it for a few years, so far it's done what it's supposed to. Only side effect I've experienced is an increase in yeast infections (about one a year) since I started taking it."


"I like the small tubes, easy to carry around if I am out of town, to stop the sticky, you have to rub it in until it's dry. I can't smell anything either, must be me, it works so well I only use it every other day. Testim also gives you a year of free co-pays! Now if they could only add a drug into it to keep my 21 yr old girlfriends mouth shut for a while my life would be perfect."


"The first week was great. My period stopped and I thought "wow this is going to work"... Oh how wrong I was. It has been anything but great. I have mood swings, anxiety, severe depression, don't want to be in social situations with extreme paranoia. For no logical reason I feel like my partner doesn't love me. I have my period twice a month. I spot bleed every other day. Within the first 6weeks I experienced bacterial vaginosis. Lasted a week (never had it before - I was scared, disgusted and embarrassed), thrush on and off for three, a UTI on and off for three (while I has thrush).

I would still recommend trying, I haven't gotten pregnant and every girl responds different. Just be aware of how terrible it can be. I am getting it removed"


"Took this medicine at 7:00pm, recommended by the pharmacist, but still I'm coughing like crazy from a cold and sinus problem.  Not sure if I want to hold my breath for another 10.5 hours?  Hopefully this will help someone else, and I'm going to return this tomorrow."


"For many years, I have not been able to eat out and hardly any restaurant.  In either 15 minutes or up to a few hours depending on where I ate, I would get extremely nauseous and have a diarrhea attack, this after I got extreme swelling in my stomach and belly.  I just discovered by accident that if when I took`Gas-X strips, I either did not get any symptoms or they were mild.  I have been able to add a few good restaurants to places I can eat, (when before it was only at home)  Eating at most fast food restaurants is still a no-no due to MSG and similars.   Taking them 20 min or so before eating produces the best results.  My son found similar results for himself."


"Well just sharing my experience. I had unprotected sex so  I went and got the plan b pill 9 hours later. I didn't eat anything I just took it then immediately I felt tired I took a nap. As a week or two weeks went by my stomach became very bloated and today I just got my period but still my breasts are bigger and my stomach is still very bloated. I haven't had any severe side effects from it and this was my very first time taking it. I hope the bloating will go away soon bc basically it looks like I'm pregnant but I have my period so maybe I'll take a test later on in the month just to make sure. But the pill was pretty decent I didn't get sick at all."


"I was psychotic and aggressive and  restrained and given ketamine  IM in each leg. I went into deep relaxation and lost sense of time, self. I don't remember it all but it was a positive experience and it resulted in me going home instead of a psych ward."


"I had my 1 & only shot in March 2017 and immediately felt bloated and sick so I decided not to get another one.
I had my first period in May 2017 and have bled on and off every few days since. I have currently been bleeding for 17 days straight and I haven't had longer than a 5 day break in between bleeds the entire time.
I'm bloated, hormonal and very tired.
I hate not knowing my body or its cycle and am at a loss of what to do.
I do not recommend this shot to anyone!"


"I was taking 3-4 Lortab's a day 7.5 for 2 years for chronic low back pain. My new Doctor won't write narcotics for chronic pain, so he gave me Ultram 25mg. I was worried about withdrawal from Lortab, but I had none, zero, I don't know how I just didn't because I have run out in the past and had withdrawals. I like Ultram. I take it less than the Lortab and it works just as well. I think Lortab "made" my body hurt so I would take more of it (if that makes sense). I need 50mg sometimes 100mg to get relief and I can not take Ultram ER. If you are taking that, that may be why you are having dizzy spells ... it made my vertigo crazy!"


"I have only been taking Fanapt for a couple of months now and am happy to say it really works well and has less side effects then my previous medicines."


"I told myself I would definitely write a review if this thing worked. I had sex with my boyfriend and we got caught up in the moment, that he ended up cumming inside me. Even after he came we didn't stop. When he finally pulled out, we were both freaking out. He went to the store and bought the plan b one-step pill and I took it 15-20 mins after. I wasn't sure if taking it too soon would mean it wouldn't work and I was super paranoid. I was even feeling symptoms of being pregnant (which tends to happen when you think about it waaay too much) but here I am, a week after taking the pill and my period just came :) plan b works, don't stress about it too much. It will do it's job."


"Reading these reviews, I'm thinking about all the people like me that get the Nexplanon, forget about it, and never write a review! I feel like more negative reviews are common because those are the people that look at other's reviews. But anyway, I got it put in around a year ago while I was still on the patch. It was FREE at the health department. I finished off my last month of patches after I got it put in and avoided the withdrawal bleeding. I didn't get a period for at least 6 months after that. The bruise was gnarly and really sore for about two weeks, and tender for at least a month after that. The only bad side effect I have noticed is increased breakouts, but they're easy enough to deal with if you have a good skincare routine."


"100% accurate."


"I have had pretty bad skin for about four years now; usually just large whiteheads in my T-Zone in particular, but they seem to scar awfully and it was really starting to affect my confidence. I had tried everything and nothing seemed to work, but then I went to my doctor and he prescribed me with Duac. I have never been so thankful! In around three months of use my skin has almost completely cleared up, and my scars have faded so much! I have experienced no itchiness or burning on application; I'm not sure if this is because I moisturize before I put the product on, but I would recommend doing so."


"Its been 3 weeks since my first Synvisc One injection in both knees, left knee unbearable pain since day of injection. Pain in places I didn't have before. Pain behind my knee and down my leg, can't sleep, walk or barely drive without pain. I am a professional dog walker and this was supposed to help not hurt. Will never get again! (I'm 42, severe bone on bone arthritis in both knees, have had 4 years of cortisone injections every few months, and take anti inflammatory prescription daily, have tried physical therapy 3 times)  I guess I will just wait for knee replacements, and put my life on hold until then."


"I was on this pill for only a month, when I started to notice that I was having problems wearing my contact lenses, which I never experienced before. By the end of the day my eyes were red. I was taking Orth Tri Cyclen a couple years before and never had any problems. But with this pill by the end of the month I had experienced a real bad headache, sharp stomach pains, and vision problems. My vision on my left eye started getting blurry and I felt pressure on my eye as well. This side effect even continued while wearing my glasses. So I was freaking out because this is my vision we're talking about. So I stopped taking this pill and within two days my vision was back to normal and I can wear my contact lenses again, without any discomfort."


"I have been taking this birth control for 6 months now and as far as I'm concerned, it works well. I haven't gotten pregnant and I don't use condoms with my significant other. The first few months I may have had a little bit of nausea and bloating, but that's all gone now. My acne has pretty much stayed the same, but my periods are lighter and shorter. They are also very regular. As for changing my weight, I believe Apri has actually helped regulate my weight, so I haven't gained any pounds nor lost any while maintaining the same diet. Mood swings could probably be better, but that comes with all young female adults under stress anyway."


"Good for stomach pains, indigestion and extreme gaseous pains and conditions."


"I have osteoarthritis.  I could not bend my knees. Walking was impossible. My dr. Discussed using the cortizone injections. They would help for a week or so. And then back to pain. Well, my dr. Discussed the Orthovisc injections. I'm on my 2nd injection and what a relief. There is some swelling after but nothing ice packs can take care of. I recommend these injections for me ..they worked. Now hopefully they will help for 6mos. .. but I would certainly have them again."


"Helped the fibro pain completely. But my sleep is totally messed up and I am tied all the time

 Also I feel emotionally flat. No motivation at all. For now I'll keep on it as having total body pain 24/7 was hell on earth"


"Biotin is pure bliss. I have been taking it everyday at 5000 mg. It has definitely made improvement in my nails and hair. I have been taking it for a few months and my hair has grown almost two inches. Reading tons of negative reviews on other sites at first made me think that biotin would barely do anything, but that was wrong biotin definitely helped my hair, skin, and nails! Taking this everyday and sticking with it really makes a difference!"


"It worked! Had brief unprotected sex then used condom for the rest of it, but I took a plan b about 1-2 hours later just to be careful cause of Pre cum. Most likely after ovulation. Started freaking out and reading reviews positive I was pregnant because I overreact like that. I had slight nausea and diarrhea a couple days after but very little side effects. Period came right on time. I'm not gonna tell you not to worry because I did that no matter how many reviews I read, but use this feeling to make sure you don't make this mistake again! Good luck"


"Pristiq was a miracle for me. I was originally put on the 50mg and my mood drastically changed from depressed and anxious to happy and functioning. Do NOT forget to take it, though. I forgot to take a dose one day and I was a mess the whole day, and then when I finally took it again, it didn't work as well so I had to have the dosage doubled. Then I ran out and couldn't get in touch with my psychiatrist so I spent about a week off of it. Was extremely depressed and had to be watched closely by my family and boyfriend to make sure that I didn't hurt myself. Tried going back on it but it no longer worked. I'm not sure if I hadn't had those mishaps with taking it if I would still be on it but it was definitely a lifesaver while it worked."


"I use Tylenol #4 for moderate abdominal pain caused from endometriosis. This medication doesn't completely stop the pain but makes it easier to function normally. The best thing about it it starts working so quickly after I take it. Other medications I have tried like Vicodin does not work as quickly or effectively."


"Taken 25mg nightly for almost 2 months. No change to migraines. Still 2 to 3 per week. Makes me sleep very deeply but leaves me feeling weak during the day, lightheaded, and some heart fluttering. Will be going back to my doctor to try something else."


"I think I made a post a long time ago about my experience with topiramate. But I can't recall if I did or not. Anyway. I was prescribed topiramate for my migraines. At first it was all good my migraines were handled well and I lost 30 lbs in 4 months. It's now 2 years later. I've experienced multiple side affects. My fingers tingle. My hands shake. I frequently feel as if I can't speak , like everything I want to say is on the tip of my tongue. I think of what I'm going to say and it comes out jumbled . When I started i weighed 238 I was at one point 207. I'd never been so "small". Losing weight so quick didn't make me feel good. Ive been off it for a month and now weigh 240.. maybe it was worth it .."


"At first, when I began taking Prozac, I had a lost more "episodes". I just cried in my bedroom for hours; I can't even describe the emotions, if I could even call them that, going through me. It was like a dark part of me took over, and it wanted nothing but an end; I don't even to what. Everything was way worse; multiple suicidal thoughts per a single day were not uncommon. Gradually, I started feeling better; there was no sudden happiness or peace, but I felt normal. Now, I just don't know what's going on with me. Stress and everything is piling up on me, once again. Eating is a chore. I feel like I'm on the brink of falling apart, on the thin line between sanity&insanity. I don't want life or death. I want to not exist. I'm just confused"


"I get a couple of migraines a month.  Not sure if they are aggravated by hormones, stress or sinus pressure, probably a combination.  Regardless I always have throbbing pain on one side of my head along with tight muscles through the neck and shoulder.   Cyclobenzoprine is all that works.  About 30 min after taking it I can feel the tension in my head and eyes lift.  What a life saver after years of pain.  I always back it up with an ibuprofen too.  The ibuprofen alone barely touches it."


"So far so good.  I've been taking it combined with Neurontin and I feel great!  I tell my husband how happy he makes me everyday...my happy feeling is back.  Although I have bad days with Fibro but I no longer have bad weeks."


"Every since I started using clonazepam I haven't had a single migraine. "


"Wellbutrin is a good help with severe grief reaction without the need for prozac, etc. For me, it gave me a break from the grief. No great feelings of joy but less deep gutwrenching grief, but also less ability to cry. No weight gain, no real side-effects.  I've taken it for about 3 months and it doesn't change my personality.  I take a low dose of about 250 mg / day and I'm 165 lbs.  150mg wasn't enough."


"I got Implanon August 2011 and have loved it ever since! I wasn't aware of the method going into the doctor and got the implant with little to no research. After insertion I went home read the reviews and immediately freaked out about my decision, I gave it a chance though and couldn't be happier. I had been on Depo for a year, and due to the potential of bone density loss, my performance as an elite endurance athlete and my history of low iron, my doctor wanted me off Depo asap. I have had zero problems with the implant, the only issue was training immediately after insertion my arm was extra tender. I haven't had a period or bleeding since, I've actually lost weight as well. Highly recommend."


"I have been using it for a month and my eyes are a mess.  I just thought maybe I had really bad allergies all of a sudden and that my eyesight was starting to go bad due to age.  Then on top of the watering and blurriness, my eyes started burning and I finally put two and two together.  I will stop using it immediately and hopefully there is no permanent damage."


"Was feeling horrible for a few days. Thought it was a nasty sinus bug until the blood started coming up. Went to the doctor and turns out I had the flu AND pneumonia. I was prescribed 500 mg for ten days. I am on day 8 of 10 and this stuff is AWESOME. I felt brand new on day 3. By day 4 my breathing was back to normal and the blood was out of my mucus. The only "bad" side effect is sleep! Pop on Netflix and have a "special" brownie or cookie and relax. You won't even feel sick."


"I started using minocycline exactly 3 weeks ago. At first the medication was fine and I did not notice any side effects. Within the first week, my acne got worse. Second week was even worse. Third week was just awful. Not only did my acne get worse than when I had initially started, but my body started breaking out in red dots that became itchy and unbearable! By week 2 I would wake up dizzy and nauseated. I ended up going to my dermatologist today and she switched me to another medication- Septra. Fingers crossed that I DO NOT have another reaction that minocycline gave me!"


"Been on Latuda 40 mg for six weeks. Doctor put me at 80 yesterday and the restlessness I experienced last night was unbearable.   All day I haven't been able to stop moving my feet and legs.    Called the doctor today and she said continue taking it and go to the emergency room if the symptoms get worse.  PLEASE HELP.  Does the restlessness go away !!?????"


"A 51 year old chronic migraine sufferer, Butalbital compound (with caffeine and Codeine called Fiorinal) has changed my life. Once afraid of the addictive nature of barbiturates I would not take this when needed and was down with a migraine for days. Now I take it at the first sign as prescribed by my doctor, even at work and am 100% in an hour. Even when having to take it later by not having some with me when a Migraine presented itself, "Fiorinal" has been a lifesaver, reducing the severity and complexity of symptoms resulting in a severe but manageable headache until completely resolving symptoms with another dosage and sleep. It's important to note that regular checks of Liver functions by blood test every 3-6 months is recommended by my doctor."


"I'm using it for a five day period for a bacteria infection, twice a day. I think its working. It's my fourth day and it was the only day I felt slight irritation. I'm not sure if that means it has stopped working or what but I hope that after my last day that I finally get a full ease.

My only side effect is headache and dizziness as well as nausea which isn't so bad. As for the taste, I don't keep it on my tongue long enough to get a good taste so I can't testify for that."


"Hysterectomy at 26. I've been on HRT for 30 years and medications available have changed with time. This is the best I've tried so far."


"I have just started Levofloxacin for prostatitis that I've been battling for 4 months. I've tried Doxy and Cipro with no luck. I'm day two into Levofloxacin and I'm experiencing pretty back anxiety. Has anybody else experienced anxiety on this medication? Should I stop taking it or try and push through it??

Thank you"


"I got the Mirena inserted 7 weeks after giving birth back in 2011. The initial process was okay, there was a little bit of cramping, but nothing major I took two Advil and the pain was gone. The Mirena itself was great, I had no issues or side effects, after the first two months I no longer got a period, but I would still experience the cramps and breast soreness. I recently got my Mirena removed because we could not locate the strings, after having an ultrasound done, we saw that the Mirena was exactly where it was supposed to be, although that was good news I decided to have it taken out. I would suggest it, no period, no side effects and you don't have to remember to take a pill daily. Its good for 5 years!"


"I just started Linzess last week, and it's already made a huge difference in my life. No more struggling to go or ending up in the hospital. Yes, my constipation was so severe it was called obstapation. I have had 3 episodes this year alone in the hospital. Linzess has turned things around. No more. bloating, stomach pain or stomach distention. I'm happy to say this drug was a miracle for me!"


"A doctgor (I've been to many) tried me on Ultram.  On about the 2nd or 3rd day, I was at work and began feeling very strange.  I got shakier as the morning progressed.  I got up and could not walk without holding on to the wall.  Then I began having breathing problems.  I asked my boss if somebody could take me to the ER.  On the way there, I truly felt like I was going to die.  My coworker got me into the ER and the triage team first checked my heart out with an ECG, etc.  The conclusion the ER doctor came up with is that I was having something called Serotonin Syndrome which can be quite serious.  They gave me some Ativan and sent me home.  My mother-in-law was on Ultram for years and it worked very well for her."


"I have taken Keppra for the last 8 yrs. I take 6-500mg pills and 3-100mg pills a day. It has worked very well for me. I did have a Grand-Mal Seizure a few months back. It was the worst I ever had. They did a blood level on me and my blood level was Therapeutic, Meaning normal. It is a good medicine to take. But like any other medicine it has it's off days. I do recommend it though."


"I was prescribed macrobid for a 3 day course, 2 doses a day. The first day I seemed to be getting better, but then I woke up at 4:15am the morning of the second day with chest pains. Throughout the day I suffered from headaches, chest pains, muscle and joint aches, nausea, dizziness, fever and chills. Now on the third day, and though I'm not feeling as ill anymore, I'm still dealing with chest, back and stomach pains. Can't even tell if treating the UTI because I've been in so much pain. Worst experience I've ever had with antibiotics - would definitely never use macrobid again!"


"Alprazolam offers a "cleaner" anxiolytic effect for me compared to Ativan. The "waviness" in lorazepam isn't present in Xanax, though at the 0.75mg dosage level and above I do get a bit of confusion sometimes. 0.5mg works well in a subtle way, though it can be tempting to want to bring up the dose a bit - I had a panic attack while on the medicine at 0.5mg and I couldn't get rid of it until I had taken 1.5mg - and I fell asleep. All in all, Xanax works for anxiety."


"I have to say that Drysol is a life saver. All of a sudden about 4 years ago I started sweating to the point where it was embarrassing to go out in public for fear that people would see pit stains. I went to my dermatologist and he recommended this product I started using it maybe a week ago and within the first two uses I was sweat free! When I go to work out, I will be dripping wet everywhere but underarms are completely dry! Drysol is a life saver. I highly recommend."


"Nizatidine is by far the best histamine-2 blocker but very expensive."


"I had tried various birth control w HORRIBLE side effects so I decided to give this a try bc there are NO hormones. Insertion was uncomfortable, not painful. I spotted the first few weeks, as expected.
Now I'm back to normal. I've never had kids and don't want them so this was my last resort birth control. I only wish I had known of this option years ago!!!!"


"Originally I started to take birth control for heavy cramps and periods. Having used Ortho Tricyclen Lo for about three years as a teen, I got off and realized my mood swings stabilized, depression lifted, and my cramps, although painful, were actually LESS than on OTC Lo.

For a time I was put on Trinessa, and there were absolutely NO side effects. But then my insurance switched me back to OTC Lo, I realized why I became a crazy-face again. Needless to say, I insisted on Trinessa, and the three dollar copay is WELL worth the peace of mind it gives me.

Plus, my skin is flawless now."


"I have recently been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder.  I have had symptoms of this for years not knowing what was wrong with me. I would go a few years with no issues cause I was drinking very heavily  ( 1- 2 cases of beer a night)  I have tried SSRI's as they would not work with the depression and anxiety.  I recently was switched from zyprexa to quetiapine 100 mg (will be increased to 200mg in 2 days.)  It has been 3 days and I have already noticed a complete difference.  My thoughts seem a lot more stable, I'm not as paranoid, I found my anxiety has lessoned (I was having 4 -6 panic attacks at work a day) and I just feel more stable now.  I am very grateful as to I was so desperate for help."


"I tried smoking a cigarette at age 12.  A couple puffs and it felt like a caustic blue irritating gas.  After receiving my draft card in 1968 I joined the military.  In boot camp just about everyone smoked their special brand.  So it was cool to smoke.   Of course a pack back then was 25 cents pack not 10 dollars today.  With age & time the desire to smoke increased.  A pack a day and shortness of breath got my attention.  So at 63 I started on Chantix and Prozac.  Five months later and the desire is gone!  Thanks Chantix."


"Started on Cymbalta for anxiety & depression fall 2014. It was the first anti-depressant that I'd ever tried (aside from St. John's Wort). Side effects during the first week of taking it were SO terrible that I had to stop. I was constantly dizzy. I couldn't focus on anything. It made my body so tense, I'd catch myself clenching my teeth and fists. Insomnia was terrible; I'd wake up ~5x per night. I work in healthcare and I felt like I couldn't do my job with all of these side effects, so I stopped. The side effects were really worse than my anxiety and depression. I have no doubt that they would have eventually decreased, but I couldn't wait for that to happen. Obviously, the side effects will be different for everybody but that's my story"


"I've been on this for almost a year and I've never had any issue except mild nausea before my period. My periods use to be very heavy and last two weeks and the PMS would take a serious toll on me. On this my periods are lighter and last 4-5 days. My PMS is significantly lessened. I still get teary eyed pretty easily before my period but now I'm not a raging PMS machine."


"This pill did not work well at all for me. I was on it for severe cramping and while it slightly dulled the cramps, its side effects made things worse than they were to begin with.  For the 4 months that I was on it, I had 2 periods a month, one half way through the pack and one at the end.  Both had bad cramps.  After the first month, my skin started to break out like crazy. Not only that, but this pill made me really moody, to the point that I would cry over nothing and get really upset at people. "


"I have been taking Cryselle for 2 years now and I love it.  Haven't had any side effects and the way it helps keep my period regular is awesome.  I know exactly when to expect it and how long it will last.  Before Cryselle I was taking another birth control that made me nauseous, gave me headaches, and would give me 2 periods a month. I love that I found Cryselle and I will continue to use it."


"Started 2 months ago and I lost 10 pounds in the first month, the second month I lost 4.6 pounds. I have combined the pill with dieting something small every 2-3 hours and a decent size meal like chicken and rice 2 hours before my workouts. I like belviq and would do it again. I started off at 181.00 and now I'm down to 165.9"


"The only reason it's not a 10 for me is side effects, which were very significant at first but have gotten well into a reasonable range. I researched heavily before starting, know it can be hell to discontinue, and if the relief hadn't been so immense within days from both pain and anxiety I probably would have stopped it--glad I didn't. Took about 5-6 weeks for depression to get under control, but I feel great now. No cognitive issues like Neurotin, pain meds, and Ativan, no sleepiness for me (sleeplessness was a bigger problem at first). I have osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, lumbar disk pain, GAD, chronic depression issues."


"Tested positive in april 2015 was prescribed triumeq.  Viral load was 55000. T Cell count 199.

After only 9 Weeks on medication with Valtrex in conjunction; Viral Load was 30 (that's thirty, basically undetectable)  T Cell count up to 478.   I had no side effects at all.

With manufacture coupon. (print online...had no problem at pharmacy drug is free)  think cash price is 4K per month normally"


"I was on generess before this.. which was a mint chewable. Very strange. I had zero side effects from that, EXCEPT the dosage was so strong I had these sharp shooting pains in my chest like I was having a heart attack. So I switched to lo loestrin. I don't get my period anymore AT ALL. No spotting, nothing. No more shooting pains. My only complaint is that I've noticed a serious decline in sex drive. If they could somehow fix that this would get 10 stars!"


"I've been on Lutera for about a year and had no problems at all. Then my insurance switched to Orysthia and I've been having mood swings, acne, and what seems like, 3 week periods. I'm going back to Lutera."


"The pain went away for about 2 weeks and then the pain came back strong. I think the Synvisc one doesn't do what they say it does. There needs to be another form of injection without having to go to the doctor 5 weeks in a row that will last a true six months this Synvisc one shot was not worth the money that they charge the health insurance and myself"


"I switched recently to this medicine from Latuda due to akathisia and lack of effectiveness. It has work wonders on my mood. It has paired up with Zoloft to make a solid team of an antidepressant/mood stabilizer combination. I feel like I can do much more now, my sociability has increased, even my anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder have been helped by it! My experience on this medicine has been better overall in the past month I've been on it than the two years I was on Latuda. The only negative side effect so far is sexual side effects."


"After two weeks using Spiriva the wheezing and loose phlegm have all but disappeared."


"I have been on Methodone one for nearly 13 years to manage chronic pain. I have been on 90mg. daily for approximately the last 3 years. I started at 100mg but after 10 years I had an auto accident and quickly discovered that since my dose was so high and my tolerance was great, almost every other pain med. the E.R. tried didn't work!! I was in the most agonizing pain I had ever felt! No sympathy from the nurses, to them, I "had enough med. on board to kill a horse!" Which was only maddening to me because "I" was the one in extreme agony! Its taking a long time but I definitely decided then that I needed to lower my dose as much as I could slowly, safely. I am still working on that. Three years and only down 1 10mg. pill is discouraging!!"


Acetaminophen / dichloralphenazone / isometheptene mucate

"Been taking Midrin for 6 years, migraines are getting worse with age. Auras, numbness in arms, cluster headaches. Can't take Motrin anymore, doctor says I've taken too much. Midrin makes me feel like I've taken a muscle relaxer after I wake up the next day. So, the day after I take this I feel like a zombie.  Still looking for something better!"


"sever headaches and nausea.
Awaiting the phone call from my doctor to get me off it!"


"Was diagnosed with HIV Sept. 2014. Began Complera a month later and three weeks later, my viral load was undetectable. In addition, I've suffered little if no side-effects. I'm a 48 year old, white male. As this is the only HIV medicine I've ever known and have noticed nothing different in terms of body changes or flatulence, or whatever, I'd give Complera two thumbs up--good luck, everybody."


"Started this a few months ago and the first month I had a 4 week long period which was not fun, however I've had no weight gain whatsoever, increased sex drive, and less acne! I really like this birth control and now my periods are completely regular after that terrible first month."


"I'm 14 years old with OCD. I tried Prozac and it just made me make decisions that weren't like me. Ive been on Zoloft for awhile and it's really helping. I haven't obsessed at ALL. I just don't overthink and I live a great life."


"Just mixed my first bottle with ginger ale at 4:45 finished it 4:50 record time for me plus chashed it down with one of the 16 oz of water !! If you guys think this is bad you would have died drinking the golytly from 20 years ago!! The second prep was 2.5 years ago movieprep I just pretended it was a shot at bar lol but this one was a breeze.... 52 and this is my 3 rd colonoscopy I have severe diverticulitis so I know what to expect. I have a very soft diet for the whole week before test because remember what goes in must come out :) Good luck everyone<3"


"I've been taking Pristiq for 2 full months now.  It helps me get up and out of the house and I don't feel as hopeless.  People aren't getting on my nerves as much either. Continuing side effects for me are sleepiness, headaches and a rise in blood pressure.  I'm seeing my doctor to taper off as the side effects are too much.

In the first few weeks I noticed a dramatic loss of appetite which has unfortunately gone away.  I have some weight to lose.  For a while there I was eating like a "normal" person, which was really nice.

I've been on everything, most recently Prozac and Cymbalta.  Just don't know if there's anything left to try."


"Been on Lortab for severe nerve pain after trying Cymbalta & Lyrica. Works well."


"My experience with Hetlioz has been very positive. I usually sleep 6-7 hours of sleep every night. Every now and then I still have a night I can't sleep very well as I think my bodies clock is still adjusting to Hetlioz. That being said when I wake up I actually feel rested (even on my bad nights). I feel like I have more energy. My digestion issues are getting better, my mood is better because I don't feel like I am exhauster. Before taking Hetloz I would wake up in the morning feeling exhausted, even if I slept thru the night. I truly was not functioning well before Hetlioz. I struggled for years with INSOMNIA. I tried many different sleeping medications with no luck until one of my doctors prescribed Hetlioz."


"Very good experience I had tried many other pills and this is the only one that doesn't upset my stomach, I was so happy about that because I have gastritis, also my mood stabilized which was the main reason I was put on this medicine because I have extreme PMS. I gained 4lbs the first 2 weeks but I watched what I was eating and went back to normal weight, no extra pimples, some blood in the middle of the cycle and tender breast. Overall good"


"For several years I had been using a corticosteroid nasal spray to control my seasonal allergies, the spray worked great but I would wake up every morning with a very dry nose and occasional bleeding. My allergist said the spray should only be used for breakthrough allergies and that I should be taking an OTC antihistamine every day during allergy season. His recommendation was cetirizine but it made me so sleepy that I could barely function for the 24hrs it was in my system. I then tried loratadine but experienced the same thing. I moved onto desloratadine but was skeptical since it's the activated form of loratadine that it would also make me drowsy. Surprisingly it doesn't!"


"TookHarvoni from March-June2015.  Had blood work in Sept 2015 every this is back to normal range. I did not have any side affects like others.  I am a baby boomer Hepc is epidemic in our age group. My PCP just randomly a test on me.  I did not have any symptons related to having Hepc.  I felt normal before I knew I was infected with the virus"


"I have been taking invokana for about a year and a half now after taking 1000mg of metformin daily and levemir and humalog daily. The metformin and insulin was not working as well as Dr. wanted it to so I was switched to the extended release metformin 1000mg twice a day and added invokana 100mg. I have since been able to go completely off of the two insulin pens and my sugars have been in normal range. I have lost a little bit of weight but I have developed a horrible  itch and yeast infection that will not go away. I was given diflucan a while ago but it didn't help. I have also recently noticed that I have been losing a ton of hair. I literally get handfuls of hair after a shower and am pulling handfuls out of my brush every time I brush."


"Ritali doesn't work for me but Concerta does. My dosage is 72 mg of Concerta. 200 mg of Seroquel and 20 mg of Ritalin."


"I got on the depo shot from recommendations. I've been on it for almost 2 months and at 1st i loved it, but now it makes my 3rd week spotting badly one day brown and  one day blood!! I been vomiting everything I eat. Also its makin my sex life complicated I get tired for no reason and really moody"


"At first it was extremely helpful but after the first year or so of extended use, the effects begin to diminish. Not dramatically but enough to be noticed."


"I have been on Lo Loestrin for almost 2 months and was extremely nervous, since the last birth control I had been on did not work at all. Lo Loestrin has been absolutely great for me. I weigh 120 and am 19 years old. I have experienced NO mood swings, heavy bleeding, head aches, nausea or vomitting. I would definitely recommend anyone to give this birth control a shot!"


"I was worried to be on a medication such as lialda on its strongest dosage (4 pills a day). My doctor told me to have all 4 in the morning with food. The combination of the Lialda and Canasa suppository at night helped my symptoms within days. I was blood free for two weeks but now notice some blood again. I'm really frustrated and hope this is just going to take more time and not mean that I have to try something stronger. "


"I have tried several prenatal vitamins over the past year as we have been trying to get/stay pregnant and I was either nauseous, extremely dizzy, had a metal taste in my mouth or all of the above! PreNexa is the first prenatal vitamin that did not have any side effects at all! I feel great and more energized!"


"Air bubbles in tube cause loss of medication."


"I've been on Yaz for almost two years now and I wouldn't change it for anything. It was my first birth control and I love it. I take it at night at a set time and it doesn't cause any side effects such as nausea. I reccomend Yaz to everyone. It really does work!"


"I've now been on this medication for 8 weeks. I've lost 20lbs. No side effects except dry mouth sometimes and being tired sometimes. The weight is just falling off of me. I look great again. I will continue this drug until I lost another 20lbs. I've tried a lot of medications for weight loss and non worked. This is actually working. My insurance covers most of the fee. Have your doctor call in the needles also and you get those cheaper."


"I have taken this medication for over two decades and it works well. Without it I wouldn't be able to hardly eat anything. If I run out and have to wait to get my refills .. It usually takes several days before any horrible symptoms come back. I try to get my meds before that happens. It really does help in making life so much better. You can eat in a normal fashion but sensible. I try to drink plenty of water, so my meds won't be to much of a strain on my bladder & kidneys and all my organs. I know without this medicine I couldn't even drink water without suffering the consequences.. it was that bad."


"I recently was diagnosed with Complex Migraine. I feel like I am having some kind of seizure that I am awake for: numbness and facial twitching, slurred speech, ocular pain and all kinds of bizarre visuals. Sumatriptan definitely takes the edge off. It only works if I am already having a severe migraine though, and takes some time to work as well. In addition, I cannot take this medicine if I am at work, because it makes me rather tired. However, it is quite helpful for when I am at home and does significantly reduce the disorienting pain and eye pressure. It does not make aura disappear but it makes it less bright. Not perfect but pretty good!"


"I have been seeing my doctor for the last 3 years starting from back pain and fibromyalgia. I tried so much medication including 6 epidural injection in my lumbar and sacroiliac joint, nothing seems to work. Finally I was referred to an internal doctor and after reviewing my case she asked me to try Cymbalta. I finally get relief from it, my life is back to normal and I'm very satisfied."


"The medication works, but the spring-loaded horse tranquilizer-style delivery device is barbaric.  I'd rather get a regular syringe and inject it myself than using their prefilled ones."


"After suffering 75% coverage for 25 years and various medications and creams which helped a little for a few weeks or months, Humira has totally cleared all my skin. I still have dark scars from where it used to be on my back and legs, but they don't bother me in the slightest. I have been on Humira treatment since December 2009.
No more vacuuming the floor every day for dead skin flakes, my princess thinks that's the best result!"


"Not impressed with doxycycline at all.

Been taking it for about four months now and my skin has never looked worse.

I've been sunburnt terribly, gained weight, bruised more, and everywhere on my face has more pimples.

I'm coming off this in a few days, can't wait."


"It's not a miracle cure, but it definitely helps.  First time I was prescribed it, my jaw had been locked for a little over three weeks.  Needless to say, I was pretty desperate to have any kind of fix.  After yet another failed appointment with the TMJ specialists, I went to my primary doctor hoping that she had been able to find something new.  This time, she prescribed Cyclobenzaprine.  No joke, four hours later I could open my jaw.  Works like a charm.  The pain goes away with it too (no more tension).  Only downside, is it makes me sleepy and a little loopy.  No driving on this stuff (for me anyways)."


"Have suffered from very labile bp for over 45 years. In spite of renal stent 2 years ago, bp occcasionally hits 210/ 110 in the evening.  Had to stop Avapro because of dizziness, and sleepiness (was taking it in combo with Norvasc and Cardura) the problem has persisted.  Just started Bystolic 10 days ago and most of the time my bp is good BUT night time highs still occur.  When they do I use Nitrostat to bring it down. I'm taking 10 mg of Bystolic in the morning and 2 mg of Cardura in the evening, however am still suffering the same dizziness and sleepiness as I did with Avapro.  My doctor wants me to reverse and take the Bystolic in the evening (to sleep off the side effects) and the Cardura in the morning.  I'm getting discouraged!"
