"So let me first explain that I got this implant because I'm overseas for long periods of time and was sick of paying for pills in bulk (insurance wouldn't cover more than 3 months). Overall my experience has been AMAZING. I'm not understating this. The insertion? Yes, that was a little uncomfortable, and the recovery was pretty intense (and I have I high pain tolerance), but it was worth it. Now, I'm usually the body type that with either stress or working out a lot (I'm talking about insanity or marathon training) I don't get my period. But, I've been working out normally and with minimal stress have not gotten my period. I repeat...after the initial period...I have not received a period in 2 months. This implant is amazing."


"Not worth the side effects and withdrawal symptoms."


"I started on Bupropion about 3 weeks ago. On day 1 I had more energy and felt happy; I even didn't feel like smoking-the urge was decreased a lot. By day 10, I was down from 2-3 packs a week to 1 pack or less a week. I switched to brand Wellbutrin XL and even though my cravings were nonexistent on Bupropion, the brand name drug, Wellbutrin didn't curb the cravings as much. I also noticed my energy level decrease a lot. I'm going back to Bupropion because I literally smoked the few cigarettes I went down to purely out of habit because I had no cravings at all. It was amazing how quickly it worked. For me, the purple generic pill worked like a charm, and my mood improved  significantly.  I wish I had known about this 9 yrs ago!!!!"


"Had a terrible hacking uncontrollable at times embarrassing cough for 8 weeks was put on 4 different scripts, finally after none of them worked, I was put on prednisone. I took my first dose around noon today, it's now 8pm and the cough is gone. I also have Plantar Fasciatis I'm sitting here amazed that the heel pain is totally gone and I'm able to walk pain free. I know it's benefits will be short lived with the heel pain but at this point I'll take any relief I can get."


"Xenical is great!! On 3 months I lost 30 pounds , never gain it back!!! I'm doing it again , my goal is 30 or 40 more.

Side effects....true , but you lear how to handle it!!"


"I started taking this pill for severe menstrual cramps  (I've had to take a lot of  ibuprofen daily to manage the pain) and to hopefully decrease the amount of clots I was passing (sorry...TMI...I know!) throughout my period which were very large, numerous, and painful. I am very pleased with the results.! After only one month the clotting and PMS symptoms have significantly decreased, the cramps are manageable, and I was able to function like a "normal" person at work on my cycle. I was apprehensive about Estarylla birth control of all of the bad reviews, but it has been a lifesaver for me! Sticking with this pill forever and ever! Amen!"


"I was prescribed this for a sinus infection twice. First time was last year. It worked and I felt better in about five days. However I had nausea and a nasty taste in my mouth every time I took it. This year it was prescribed for the same thing. I still have the sinus infection, and the side effects were worse. My doctor chose this drug because I am allergic to sulfa drugs."


"I wouldn't even rate this oral contraceptive as high as 1 out of 10. I was prescribed this by my doctor for birth control as well as issues with P.M.S.. THIS MEDICATION IS HORRIBLE. Upon starting it my depression was off the charts, I was so irritable that people closest to me asked, "why am I so miserable?", I had acne breakouts, which I have not had since the age of 15, so 12 years later & not sexy out breaks. My sex drive went to zero. INSOMNIA constantly.. When I did get my period Jeezus, heavy flow, fatigue, fever like feeling/hard time getting out of bed and functioning, and cramps worse than without being on this med. The PMS IS HORRIBLE. This website won't let me write more. Hair loss as well. 4 periods a month is not worth this med"


"I have suffered for years without finding a medication that works.  I finally found Relpax and now swear by it!  This work great!!"


"I battle depression, anxiety & severe insomnia also allergies. Knocked me out cold & my allergies seemed under control anxiety a little better. Problem I couldn't shake being extremely tired the next day. All I could do was sleep which doesn't help with depression."


"Rated subjectively from patient assessment s/p administration"


"I got a nasty flu virus when I was 32. During that time, I experienced my first migraine. It hurt so bad!  Afterwards..I kept getting them about once every one-two weeks. My doctor put me on nortriptyline. I have had one dose increase in the first year. Since then I don't them as much.  When I need to take it..it calms me and I fall asleep.
The next day,I  get the migraine hang over..that's when I take ibuprofen. The medication has been a life saver"


"I have had a yeast infection for 5-6 days and was using Monistat until yesterday when I called & got a script for 2 Diflucan150! Took the first one yesterday morning & not much change at all this morning. Will take the second one tomorrow morning & pray it works. I had nor had a yeast infection for at least 10 years. No side effects & drinking lots of water. Having gall bladder surgery on Friday & want this cleared up prior to surgery. Sorry to say the docs offices are not a lot of help. So what else is new???"


"I've reached out to plan b 3 times, the last one i took was about 3 years ago so it definitely works! I have no kids. After the last one i took i still went later to get a PT (which of course came out -) but the nurse told me to try and not take these pills anymore if in the future i wanted kids, not because it would be impossible but it would make it a bit harder for me to conceive. . so here i am, been 7 months TTC and nothing, it might be me who knows but i always think about what the nurse told me... plan b's are great when you think you need them but dont make them a habit.."


"My acne got worse in my mid 20s and after trying every tip I could find I finally decided to go to the doctor and he gave me tretinoin . After several research's I found out that things might get worse in the beginning. And indeed things got worse after a few weeks and I broke out terribly, I cried when I looked in the mirror but I thought “just stick with it” and trust me its worth it! I know its really hard but when its over its getting better and better (took me 3-4 months to see first results). Also don't pick because you will have a giant wound after it. Good thing about that; I am not picking anymore :) ! I I also use BP in the morning and zinc, after 11 months I’m now getting compliments for my flawless skin! Don't give up its worth it"


"I have had Fibromyalgia for 11 years and had Amitriptyline for it, last week I started with shingles and left me with Neuropathic stabbing ice pick pain in my head/neck, yesterday the doctor said try Gabapentin starting dose 300g but not with Amitriptaline, reluctantly after reading the side effects I took a pill as I haven't slept for 6 nights and was at my wits end. I took it at 9pm I went to bed 11pm experienced leg jerking for a few minutes a strange tingling feeling all over, and excessive gas, then I must have fallen asleep I had been asleep 6 hours :) no shooting pains every 30 seconds no restless legs, I'm going to give this a go as first impressions to me on just one dose has been a relief/blessing and worth a try."


"I'm using this for bcc. My areas were small to begin with. I am on week 6 and was instructed to use it 5 times a week. I've used a very small amount and I haven't had severe side effects. My lymph nodes have been swollen a few times. I make sure to wash the areas, let it dry, wash my hands and apply. I have always washed it off 8 hours later. I've also avoided getting in the sun. The areas haven't disappeared yet and I'm not sure what they should look like at this point."


"After starting this birth control I had the amazing side effect of no period for six months. After that six month grace period had ended, I began to get my period once every two weeks, sometimes more depending on how often I had sex. Also, it became a lot easier for me to gain weight once I had this implant. I gained 20 lbs in one year and am still working on losing it. My mood swings have been all over the board and I find myself feeling depressed and anxious more often than not."


"You will read all the bad things about Accutane, but the bottom line is IT WORKS! I had horrible painful acne in my early 20's, that lasted through my 30's. It was depressing, I avoided picture taking all together. Yes the side effects can be bothersome, but it is temporary and if you plan ahead and purchase a tub of Aquaphor you can deal with it. "


"This birth control is a near traumatic experience. I have gained 30lbs. I have had this implanted in my arm since 2013. On top of the weight issue I have experienced constant bleeding, emotional ups and downs, and a fire cracker temperament. I've set up appointments but the timing has been poor considering I have just gotten out of the military, moved across the country and moved into a new house. I did however manage to start using the nueva ring and it did however help a lot with maintaining the current weight and with 1 1/2 hrs of gym time a day was working to get down to a happier weight. Recently I have ran out of the nueva ring and even with so much time in the gym it's like a gained 5 lbs in my sleep. Working on getting it removed"


"Hello everyone, I got my explanon on 7/27/15. Almost a year. I thought it be amazing to get. But now I'm getting g this thing removed. I have really bad mood swings. This thing has made me gain weight. I haven't really changed my diet. I feel like this thing makes you go insane. Your like bi polar on it, but your not. I can't even. Stand myself. I'm making my husband upset the way I act. This explanon is not something anyone show up In there body. It put to much hormones in your body. That's why it causes emotional imbalance."


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"Suprep is much better than the prep I used 6 years ago. At 6 pm the first dose went down pretty easily. I chilled the prep in the fridge and added room temp bottled water. Didn't want it too cold cause I wanted to be able to chug it. The taste not too bad. I drank 32oz water chaser within 2-3 mins and felt pretty bloated, as expected after drinking a total of 48oz. Within 30 mins or so I was "Taking the Browns to the Super Bowl". Pretty steady for about 2hrs or so then it tapers off. No nausea, no headache, however I did have chills for about 1hr. 4am, round two was harder to get down. Couldn't chug it like I did on the first round. It took probably 10 mins including the 32oz chaser. 2nd round kicks in quicker, 100% fluid. Colonoscopy is EZ"


"I initially went on it for depression. It worked great. But years had passed and everyday was the same I was never moving forward. I was forgetting a lot of things. I'm in my 30s I felt as if I was in my 70s when it came to memory. The ability to converse normally decreased over time. I would forget at-least 2 words every few sentences and I would forget obligations and functions. When I went off of it my room was clean for the 1st time my car was clean for the 1st time and for the 1st time I wasn't craving stimulants. I feel alive again.... 3 months off Latuda"


"Diagnosed with hypothyroidism, hypoglycemia, and POS.  I had classic symptoms for over the last 20 yrs (excessive hair growth (most embarrassing), fertility issues, and obesity). I could not loose weight no matter what I did. Only the last 7 yrs, have I received good medical care such as working with a nutritionist. With Synthroid increase to 150 mg over those 7 yrs, some symptoms got better but not the weight. I tried Contrave nervously. It took me a long time to get to the full dose, but the effects have been great: I've lost 20 lbs slowly, my extremities are not as cold (I can eat salad in the winter), my inflammation, energy, and depression has improved significantly.  I am sure some of this is the result of loosing weight."


"I went on Prozac several months ago after having been severely depressed for over a year straight (with a few days here and there of hypomania). It's made a huge difference! I'm only on 20 milligrams but I am a lot less depressed and more productive than I was. The only downside is that I am still having some bad mood swings, but overall it has helped my depression a lot."


"I've only been on this pill for about a week and every morning I'd wake up with a headache I caught myself always having an attitude and when im alone I'd just cry for no reason I wouldn't take this pill"


"This medicine can help many people for very short use I've been on it for 4 years and it rules my life so please don't stay on it more than 15 days or you will to be bit by the dragon Ive been off it by choice 5 days now I've experienced super withdrawal effects I was only taking 2mg at jump point with doc on call and my brother helping me through it so please use this very short term there are serious side effects"


"I have been on Trulicity for 4 weeks. Had been in the hospital for a week on heavy antiboitics.  Was taking 5 insulin shots a day  and 2 Levimir and 3 Novalog before meals on a sliding scale with no luck.  Morning blood sugars still in the high 200's to 300's even with a super strick diet. Nothing but protein and vegetables. Got one shot in the doctors office 1.5 dose and my sugar level was 116. I have had no side effects so far except for a minor loss of appetite.  Now on .75 dose and levels run around 120s. Worry about long term use..I go off it for a week and levels creep back up."


"I've been on Aviane for over a year now and overall like it. I started it to get rid of my acne, I had acne on my face, chest, and back. Aviane cleared up some of my back, and my chest is completely clear but it did not affect my face. On the plus side, I did not gain weight, but I do experience a lot of mood swings. I've noticed it is MUCH easier to cry or get upset now. A couple of months ago I started using it to prevent pregnancy as well and for that I haven't had any problems."


"I am new to the anxiety realm, and have already tried a few different meds (xanax, ativan, buspar) and so far buspar has shown the most promise. However, even on buspar I still experience sporadic chest pressure, sharp pains in the chest, brain buzz, and muscle twitches. Today the chest issues were so bad that I had to take a xanax.

I am typically against prescribed meds, and this is really the first time in my life taking them. The side effects and other dangers scare the crap out of me, but I need to figure out how to subdue my anxiety.

Does anyone have any suggestions?"


"I was  taking suboxone for about a year in a half I found new Dr. They gave me Bunavail 4.2 twice a day I get 60 a month and I split it with my lady we both take 1 a day. We are good I love the taste of them compared to subs I don't like the subs. I was prescribed 2x a day for subs too and I did the same sharing so same effect with the medicine. I'm blessed and happy loving life Day by day...."


"This has saved my life. I was on Levothyroxine for 8 years, and it didn't help my fatigue, pain, insomnia, or weight. I've been on WP thyroid for 5 month and have lost 36 pounds and am no longer at risk for diabetes, and feel like a new person. I still struggle with depression and anxiety, but I feel this medication is amazing."


"After swimming at the beach then walking round wet yesterday - today woke up with a YI sucks to be a girl sometimes hate the symptoms horrible so I got monistat 1 and it worked awesome --- such relief"


"I have been taking Dilantin since late 1991. Started off at 300mg nightly and was increased over time to 400mg when fits became more severe anf frequent. While pregnant with my 3rd child in 2007, dose was increased to 500mg nightly. This dose was never dropped back after pregnancy ended. In June 2011, I underwent brain surgery to have the scarring causing my fits removed. So far, it has been successful. At 22, I had 2 lumps removed from my left breast, which thankfully turned out to be non-cancerous. But after finding a very noticeable lump in my left breast this year, I had a mammogram. The nurse found 22 lumps in total in both breasts! My GP is not concerned and tells me they are just little oil sacks, but lump is not shrinking."


"I was referred to get on birth control because of my abnormal menstrual cycle. At first I was on Orthocyclen Lo and after a year, decided that I didn't want to be on birth control anymore as I never remembered to take the pill. I then didn't have a period for about 5 months and finally it returned to my normal 7 day cycle. The next month it was on for a whole month before I decided to go back to my doctors office because it was driving me insane! They then suggested that I take LoSeasonique. I just finished my first pack, but I don't like this pill at all. I feel AWFUL each and everyday! I have really bad stomach pain and I constantly feel like I have to vomit. Please let me know if anyone else is experiencing these symptoms!"


"So many people on here saying how bad it is or was early on. Soolantra takes time but it works. The cycles are flare at 3,6 ,9weeks. The die off cycles of the mites mean that it will get worse but just stick with it. And reap rewards."


"This worked well for my depression and anxiety too, but I was pretty zoned out on it. I slept a lot and struggled with withdrawing from it. Brain zaps for about two weeks while I was trying to sleep. It wasn't fun."


"I am a 21 years old, healthy young girl. I was on YAZ for 8 months before noticing any changes, all was well. One day I noticed a deep blue vein on my inner calf and thought nothing of it.  Today I currently have spider veins and countless thick veins from my feet to thigh. I have countless days where I am in so much pain I do not want to get out of bed, my legs burn and ache to the point where I am in tears. I currently have to wear compression socks for the rest of my life and even with the socks and elevating my feet I am still in pain, I have to have constant Dr appointment to monitor for DVT, (deep vein thrombosis) this is all because of YAZ. My entire life is impacted because of YAZ I have to take ASA everyday now. I will never recommend YAZ"


"I'm 44 years old so not sure if it was the pill that indeed resulted in the negative pregancy test.  First, I ALWAYS practice safe sex and even go over board in making sure its put on properly, etc. So you can only imagine how surprised and devastated  I was when he withdrew and told me what happened. I immediately went in panic mode because I barely even knew this guy. He was very nice and very supportive through it all though. I took Plan B about 4 hours after the incident. It was 14 days from the first day of my last period so I most likely I was ovulating. I did have some side effects but none were listed on the box so may not have been from Plan B.  I had a stiff neck for 3 days and very vivid dreams on the 3rd and 4th day. That's it!"


"I get a cold sore every one to two years. I've tried home remedies and haven't had much luck. It was my first time using Abreva yesterday. Felt the cold sore coming on in the morning around 5am. I made a trip to the store after a 9 hour work day. Thought I would give it a try as it was the most expensive. I applied it immediately when I got into the car and every 2 hours after that. By 10pm it had already blistered and started to decrease in size. I've applied it three more times today and by 1pm you could barely notice it. Abreva knocked out my cold sore like boss!"


"Had beautiful skin. Spent life caring for it. Developed light flushing as side effect from antibiotics. Went to derm (as recommended online). Derm prescribed mirvaso. With 1st use it completely destroyed my life. My skin went dead pale & my ears turned hot & red (didn't apply it to ears). 48 hours later entire face turned red (did not apply it to entire face). Face began developing a rash getting worse and worse for 3 months. For 3 months have had a severe flushing disorder induced by Mirvaso (not better yet). All food caused flushing. Have health problems from weight loss. On a strict diet (there are 21 foods I am able to eat). Can't lie down. Lost job. Nerve pain in nose, jaw, gums,  lips, eyes, ears. Burning soap in eyes feeling"


"This medication is the only thing that managed to keep me functional as a human being. Panic attacks, and severe depression...this seems to do the trick for both problems, and does wonder for my IBS as well! I have started and stopped multiple times (usually just because of the "I feel fine, why bother with it?" syndrome) but the last time, the doctor told me, "Consider yourself like a diabetic; they need insulin because their body doesn't regulate it correctly. You need this because your brain doesn't regulate serotonin correctly. Don't feel ashamed! The choice is to lie around and do nothing all day because you hate pills, or take the pills and live your life."  Effexor XR allows me to live normally."


"I took this medicine for an acute bladder infection and the 3rd dose something happened. I went into a panic attack, had shortness of breath, was hyperventilating and my stomach was killing me so I was racing back to the ER and I was hallucinating. I kept seeing people jump out in front of me WHILE driving but there was no one there, it was dark but not too dark but I made it to the ER and I got in right away just from having a panic attack and hyperventilating. I have NO idea where this side effect came from it was the weirdest, scariest thing ever so the Doctor gave me Cipro which makes you feel awful. "


"ive been taking campral for 3 years off and on i keep drinking for the first week then i just dont want it anymore and if i do have a drink i lose intrest right away like in 3 beers just dont want the booze but theres a catch as soon as i stop taking the pills the cravings come back might have to take the stuff for life but its better than being in the hospital all the time"


"I have been on Aviane for 4 years now and only recently went off of it for about 6 months to try the DEPO shot. I have had zero issues with it up until going back ON it after the interm. I am very sensitive to hormones, and the DEPO shot was not for me (crying, mood swings, feeling off). I even was switched to Lutera two years ago when the pharmacy was out of Aviane and I immediately noticed the difference with mood swings, sadness, and vaginal sensitivity).  For the first month back on Aviane I didnt notice a huge difference, but this second month I am thinking I am sleeping more, gaining some weight, and feeling off. I am also having extreme bouts of nausea. I am going to discontinue and hope that alleviates some of my symptoms."


"Stendra is the best! Fast acting, reliable and works great. Stendra works! My sex life has never ever been better. Thank you, Stendra!"


"I tested positive for chlamydia, right away dr gave me the 4 pink pills to take all at once. She said it will make you very nauseous but you must keep it down for 4hrs so that it soaks into my system. She advised me to try eating after taking it. Once it kicked in, the pain and nausea were very strong. I didn't want to move because combined with the pain in my stomach, I felt I would vomit. This lasted about 45mins. It subsided and I was able to eat/drink some water. I slept fine. Now it's the next day and the nausea has returned, not as strong. I don't believe it will persist past today because it's not nearly as severe as when I took it. Eat before so there's something in your stomach; it'll hurt less."


"I use it every night before bed."


"I just got off "the pill" after being on it for the last 2.5 years because I thought it was causing me to have bad breakouts/acne so me and my bf had unprotected sex one night/morning (no birth control and extra fertile since I had recently stopped taking the pill and not to mention the "my days" app that I use said that I was at my peak fertility day the same day) so panicking, I purchased the generic plan b pill (aftera, about $43) less than 24 hours later and took it. I do remember some cramping. (I took it about 3 weeks ago) After reading the reviews I started to really panic because my period was due 2 days ago and I read that a lot of people got their period sooner than expected but it finally came 2 days late so I guess it works!"


"I've been on this pill for 3 months and started experiencing the worst acne that I've ever had in a long time. I was taking Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo prior to Loestrin24 and other than the price, it was great.  I decided to switch to a cheaper pill but this birth control does not control my acne.  I'm experiencing breakouts on my chin, cheeks and forehead.  I've since called my obgyn and have switched back to Ortho Lo which helps control my acne."


"I fell back in 2007 and did a lot of damage to my neck and back.  Since then, I've suffered tension headaches that are absolutely debilitating.  I have to curl up in a cold, dark, quiet place and wait for them to end, like others, usually between 3-6 days.  I've tried everything.  Heat, ice, physical therapy, trigger point therapy, visualization, exercise, core strengthening, significant weight loss (100 lbs), relaxation techniques, psychologists, and medication after medication.  I had a doctor prescribe Fioricet a couple of months ago.  My headaches aren't "cured," but I can definitely function if I have to now.  I only take them when I have to though.  No withdrawal symptoms yet at all.  I do get insomnia though."


"I finally got rid of H Pylori after completing Pylera in Dec 2015. This was after 2 courses of other antibiotics combo that failed to eradicate it. Before taking Pylera, I had read other reviews that were scary. I promised myself I would come back and review for others in similar situation. Please make sure you take a really good probiotic(taken at different time) and ask for an anti-nausea medication to offset/lessen the side effects; it will make taking Pylera much more doable."


"I have very high stress levels and panic disorder.  This has helped with my stress some and my anger levels have been a lot less severe.  I take other medications for anxiety attacks so I don't think it has changed that any.  My OCD hasn't changed either but I've never found a medication to change my compulsions or obsessive thoughts."


"I noticed a big improvement right after starting this medication.  I no longer have the urgency to go to the bathroom and/or the leakage I used to have.  I have had no side effects at all.  I love this medication and had tried others before it.  This works the best."


"I love it. I stop smoking for 2 weeks now. It works great."


"So I took the one dose pill yesterday for a yeast infection I got after being on a heavy course of antibiotics. The first time I took it on a full stomach & it made me throw up within a couple minutes of taking it. I called my doctor & he called me in another does. I took it at 7pm last night, it is now 1015am the next morning. I feel some relief but not completely gone yet. I suggest taking it on an empty stomach. That's the only way I could keep it down."


"I am a 33 year old female and started taking qysmia approx 1 and a half months ago. On the low dose 3.75 I did not lose a single pound. About a month ago I started the 7.5mg and I am down 18lbs! I have not experienced any horrible side effects. I have experienced a boost in energy, but that may be related to the weight loss. I have been very happy on this medication and will continue my regimen until I reach my goal weight."


"I started this birth control pill 12 days ago. I'm 18 years old and take it for bad cramps and excessive bleeding. Ever since I started it I've had extremely debilitating nausea, anxiety, and loss of appetite. I stopped taking it yesterday in hopes of the terrible nausea ending. The nausea spread from my shoulders to the bottom of my sternum. I had anxiety attacks for no reason. I would not recommend this medication."


"Works wonders.  In combination with moisturizer(s), has cleared up skin problems."


"Recently diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis. Achy stiff joints in fingers, toes, ankles, knees, and hips. Plaque psoriasis on elbows, knees, behind ears, and above eyes. After several medications, because insurance requires it, my Rhum gave me a couple choices including Otezla. I will do anything to stay away from immune suppressive drugs, I don't want to trade one problem for another and likely worse. Been using starter packs for a month with good improvement in plaque psoriasis and no noticeable difference in joint pain. Doc says 2-3 months to see full affect. Unfortunately, my insurance slammed the door on me and is refusing to pay for the drug, appeal was denied. They have no problem paying for immune suppressive drugs because they are cheaper."


"229 down to 139 in a few months on 40 mg simvastatin.  I had been over 220 for many years.  Shocked me."


"I've been taking carvedilol for three months, it works really good for my extremely high blood pressure. I have experienced rapid weight gain, but I can't be completely sure if the carvedilol is the blame as I am on other medications. It causes sudden dizziness even without standing up to quickly .

I'm going to try something else because of the rapid weight gain and out of no where dizziness. I gave it a 7 rating because it works well with lowering my stubborn high blood pressure."


"This is day 3 for me, I just found out I had Hep C a1 a year or so ago. I have had it for about 30 years. I never had any problems due to this virus, never even thought to be tested for it, I found many of my old friends on face book and was informed I better get checked. Well I did and I have it. It took me about 6 months to be approved by my insurance. I have only had a slight head aches and today had diarrhea, I already have problems sleeping so I do use a sleep aid, I would like to thank everyone on who has shared their story! I am on a eight week program and reading such positive out comes really helps. I am hoping I do not get any more side affects however even if I do it is so worth it! I am only 52 and I love life!"


"I've been on fentanyl for 4 yrs now, have had 3 lower L5 S1 back surgeries W/Hardware, have been diagnosed with RSD, RLS, osteoarthritis, fibromylgia, also have right ankle fusion with surgery on it. Fentanyl is the only medicine. I have taken or been prescribed in the last 22yrs that has worked. I'm receiving the 75mcg X 48hrs and roxicodone 15mg 5 times a day for any breakthrough pain as needed. "


"I've been taking YAZ since 2009 and I really love it. It is wonderful. I feel great and the only problem I have is a light headache when I'm taking the white pills (last 4). But I really recommend this pill for birth control."


"I think Klonopin is the bottom-of-the-barrel of benzodiazepine anti-anxiety/anti-panic medicines. This is from personal experience with it & other benzodiazepines. Klonopin, for one thing, lacks the muscle-relaxant effect that's an additonal benefit of other benzodizepines such as Valium (diazepam). But what's worse is that Klonopin caused me to lose 2 jobs. It has this strange effect of prompting me to 'speak my mind' -- a little too much! Not the case with Valium, which has a much more pleasant effect. With further research I found out that Klonopin was intially marketed for seizure disorders *only*. But, because it didn't sell well for that, the company basically pushed into the anti-anxiety market. There's much better out there."


"Have always had severe allergies since a child, I first used Zyrtec about 14 years ago, worked great but I could barely stay awake at work, it was bad, I'm a dental assistant and I actually fell asleep while assisting(sitting on the assistant chair!) I could barely drive, I confided in a co-worker and she asked me if I was taking anything, I told her just allergy pills, she asked which ones and she said her daughter takes them but she has to take them a couple of hours before bed. I could have easily had a car accident. Anyhow now i'm researching what to take for mango skin allergy, I have Allegra which isn't as good and since I don't work now I'm going to take Zyrtec for it after reading the reviews on it."


"I was diagnosed with Diverticulitis a few months back and ended up having to return to the doctor within a month of diagnosis for the same thing. He seemed baffled as he said I shouldn't have had another attack so soon! I had been having some major anxiety so I asked him if this could be the cause and he agreed. He decided to put me on 10 mg of Lexapro and to be honest I wasn't expecting much. I had been on Zoloft, Paxil and Cymbalta with almost no difference. I took the first pill before going to bed that night and woke up in the morning ready to run a marathon! I finally feel happy, hopeful, almost no anxiety, I can speak my mind now when before I was too scared etc., etc.... LOVE IT!"


"Had a baby 3 yrs ago. Was at my top weight of 225lbs (I'm 4'11"). Lost 45lbs from February 08 to October 09 on Weight Watchers. Did moderate activity, but had weekly binge episodes (could not seem to control the hunger). Been tired and gaining the weight back since. My Doctor just gave me a clean bill of health, even though I'm back to 210lbs and prescribed Phentermine 37.5mg. I start tomorrow... Plan to update here at 2 weeks and after my 30 day check-up. I have started walking 2x a day 5x a week and doing yoga 3 x a wk, and went back to Weight Watchers online to keep me accountable for my diet. Fingers crossed!"


"I'm 15, and four weeks into Accutane treatment. My initial breakout is just now dying down, and for a while I was seriously concerned. My acne for the past 4 years has been pretty horrible to deal with, but during these last few weeks is the worst it's ever been. I was also breaking out on my chest (which had never been a problem before.) I know things are getting better though, my skin looks and feels better where I'm not breaking out and my scars are fading. Despite the extreme dry skin and lips, I feel that Accutane will improve my acne significantly, and I am desperately hoping that it won't return once I get off the medicines."


"Cymbalta didn't help with my pain it only made me feel like zombie, I'm trying to get off of it and it's a nightmare. I'm removing 7 beads from the capsule every day and feel soo sick. I feel like I'm going to die at times"


"I have literally tried everything, aside from Accutane. My doctor gave me a prescription of Spironolactone along with some Epiduo. The spironolactone made me feel weird, and I almost passed out. I gave up on that quickly and began using the samples. I called my doctor to let him know that the Epiduo was working! For the first time in as long as I can remember, I was waking up with NO new zits. After a month of using Epiduo I am 75% clear and even my scars are fading faster. This has been the biggest blessing for me!"


"I was precribed this medication due to having some "type of pneumonia". I was given a shot of antibiotics at the office so not sure if that was levoflaxcin but I immediately starting feeling very anxious and irritated over EVERYTHING. I used to have bad anxiety years ago and 7 years later started experiencing it all out over again. Next day I took my first pill and about 4 hours later the top of my right foot was so tender to the touch I cried. My husband made a comment he could see the tendon protruding up my ankle...? Fast forward to that night and I who am normally sound asleep by 10 was wide awake until after 3. Needless to say I called and asked for a different prescription. No thank you."


"It has helped with minor pains extremely well, but provides little relief for major pain (herniated disc for instance)."


"Best med for those who suffer from constant anxiety. It helps me a lot with my social anxiety in particular. I take 1 mg 3x daily. Been on that dosage for 2 years now. Have had no bad side effects. This drug has been a lifesaver for me. I've had anxiety for as long as I can remember. I think I will probably be on this med for life. Never stop taking it cold turkey or you will go through a nasty withdrawal. It happened to me once several years ago when the doctor suddenly had me stop it with no warning or taper schedule.  It's best to slowly taper off."


"What is available in the drugstores here is 20mg Cialis. I used to take one every weekend. I satisfactorily enjoy the side problems of headache and muscle aches. Just two months ago I started to divide the 20mg bill into three i.e. a third per week i.e. a 20mg cialis for three weeks .. it has been working effectively!"


"I've had terrible anxiety and stress problems for a few years. I've been on this medication for 2 weeks and I can feel the difference all ready .. The first week was weird... Trippy . I'm on 10mg and I'm so happy my constant worry is going.. I'm free to live again"


"Hey all - I felt as though it was my duty as a woman to review this medication for the rest of you ladies out there. I was diagnosed with general bacterial vaginosis & was TERRIFIED to use this.. considering the awful reviews I read through - I was prescribed the 7 day cream, as well as a general amoxicillin... I am only on 2 day but I have not experienced ANY side effects at all.. I also heard negative things about leakage - but I have not experienced this.. except for when I first woke up and went to the bathroom - which I expected. A quick shower did the trick and I am now sitting at work on my 8th hour with no discomfort or problems!"


"I had tested a number of non-steroid anti-inflammatory medicines and either they had very limited reaction or intolerance. I was proposed Humira as a potential miracle. Unfortunately it was not at all the case for me and so I reverted to Indocid. "


"This product is a life-changing miracle. I wish I would have found out about it sooner but I had to spend years of being very self-conscious. No deodorants would work for me, and the appearance of "clinical" deodorant on the store shelves was very disappointing for me because it didn't work any better than the regular ones.. I would only wear dark shirts, never bright colors, and usually a jacket/or hoodie over them. Always had very embarrassing pit stains and could never act freely and raise my arms in front of anybody. Well now, all those problems have just completely vanished overnight! I can wear anything I want and am very comfortable around people, worry-free! I use this product once every 2 weeks or so and it works like a charm."


"Geodon has been the best antipsychotic for me from a physical point of view - I lost ten kilograms that I had put on while Zyprexa. Concentration is not very good on it though - I cannot study as well as I did on Zyprexa. I lowered the dose to 80mg and suddenly it was not sufficient and I started getting symptoms again. Now I am on 120mg and symptoms have gone away but am a bit hazy and unclear, struggling to concentrate and wanting to sleep late in the mornings. I want to try 100mg to see if I will stay stable on this dose."


"While I was taking Evoxac I had

severe body odor, and my genitals smelled like onion. I tried everything to clear it up, over several years and nothing helped. The day I stopped taking Evoxac, the condition cleared up immediately. For the last 10 days it has not returned. I'm grateful my new doctor refused to subscrjibe a refill for Evoxac when I requested it. She told me the side effect was fatigue and she asked me to try other ways to address my dry mouth. After I stopped taking it, I noticed the very next day, for the first time in years, my strange body odor was gone.  I do not recommend this drug for anyone who cares about how they smell "down there.""


"I used to have panic attacks every time we went out to eat, I couldn't sit in the movies without a panic attack, I couldn't travel without anxiety and eventually a panic attack. I was always in a state of panic. I went to the urgent care with heart palps, and was given a script for clonazepam .05mg and I take it once at night. I finally sleep through the night, I don't wake up groggy, and it lasts throughout the next day because I can do the things I Never was able to do before. I use it with caution because I don't want to become dependent but at the same time, I wasn't really functioning very well before. I am thankful for it!"


"This medication made me feel like I was going crazy. I slept all day and my bones felt all mushy, could barely walk and had severe back and neck pain which I still do and prevents me from living life normally. I never know medication could do this until I experienced it for myself."


"Personally after reading these stories & not knowing if everyone (besides those who stated) was taking Meronidazole with something else. I have had a few flare ups and I cannot take a combination of Cipro/Metronidazole as this causes the weird feelings and extreme lethargy. Metronidazole alone ( besides the bad taste when you pop it) no problems. Occasionally slight nausea & bloating but nothing else. I just don't take the combination anymore which was horrible. Straight Metronidazole now 500 mg 3x a day 10 days..done."


"I started Klonopin 3 weeks ago. I take 0.5 mg 2 x day. I feel much better on Klonopin. The only side effect I've noticed is slight unsteadiness on feet."


"I've had implanon for a little over a year. It's been pure hell. I have gained 60 pounds, and NOTHING I do helps me lose weight. My depression is extremely bad from the hormones. (I had depression before, but it's 10x worse). For the first FOUR MONTHS I was bleeding, with a 2-3 day of not bleeding. My periods are now, about 9 days long. I have irregular periods, so it goes from period with 3 weeks off, to period with one week off. It's just all over the place, with extremely painful cramps. I'm getting it removed tomorrow, thank God. I'm terrified of hormonal birth control now, this being my first one that releases hormones. While I have had a horrible experience, I hope that others do not. It might work for you, it might not."


"Literally could only tolerate it for three days before removing it. Was getting headaches, couldn't sleep, had an anxiety attack out of nowhere and the brown discharge was gross plus it made my vag sore and itchy. I guess it's one of those things that you really like or just can't stand. If it works for you run with it but if you have symptoms from what I've read be prepared to have those symptoms for at least a month. Can't say it doesn't do it's job but are the side effects worth it?"


"I had found myself spacing out and getting very easily distracted in school. I would always talk and anything from a noise to something moving out the window would distract me and get me off task somehow. I also had trouble staying focused on assignments that took a descent amount of time to finish. I finally told my psychiatrist about it and he gave me Vyvanse 30mg. It helped me out A LOT. I stayed focused, and if I started an assignment I finished it but he gave me a script for 1 a day every morning but I found myself taking 2 a day sometimes so he gave me the 60mg Vyvanse. So now I take one 60mg Vyvanse a day and am fine. I don't get distracted anymore like I did. I find myself getting all my work done then talking instead of talking 1st."


"I started Linsezz and within about 5 days, it worked for me. Actually I got very loose bowels, but it was working. Within a couple more days, I felt sick, very weak and tired, I almost felt like I was drugged and could feel my head moving back and forth. This happened for two days.  I stopped it for a day or two and was fine. I took it again, and the same thing happened. I had to get in bed and sleep it off. Tired, felt weird. I stopped taking it."


"I had severe headaches, blurred vision and I could NOT produce a bowel movement without laxatives, while on this medicine."


"Been on this shot since June 14. Started experiencing abdominal pain on July 2 and spotting on July 4. SEVERE abdominal cramps as of July 4 that continues. I turned up anemic, when I had not been just 1 month before. As of today, I am still experiencing abdominal cramps periodically, continue to spot or have what seems like a full fledged period, alternately, without any pattern. My Gyno placed me on the shot to stop my heavy bleeding due to Uterine Fibroids. I will not take a second shot, as along with the heavy bleeding continuing as before, I have severe pain, extreme fatigue, weight gain even after increased physical activity."


"I have been depressed and have anxiety for years since i was 6. im 55 now. No one new anything back then why I was a nut case out of control thoughts actions major moods swings and instant anger. no remorse no empathy nothing just hate and pure panic.

I have tried all kinds of different meds for the last 15 years and some were OK but nothing like these. My god I do 60mg twice a day. no side effects, no anger, no mood swings, no depression or anything, its all gone everything. you have no idea the great feeling it is to think normal act normal be polite and thoughtful, caring understanding, just incredible difference. I was taken off them for 5 weeks to try something else to see if it was me or the meds. back to the old me instantly. lifer.."


"Claritin D did help my nasal congestion, but the side effects I experienced just weren't worth it.  It made me nervous, jittery, and with extreme insomnia.  I did notice that my nasal congestion improved, but I can't tolerate the side effects."


"I have been taking VOLTAREN for about two weeks now. I have found that the medicine works very well. What an advantage to be able to apply the gel right to the affected area, relief comes rather fast.

It doesn't last as long as I would like, but when you are in pain, any relief is welcome. Used in conjunction with my other medicines it has helped me to put together a medication regime that helps me to live with this condition.

If you have tried oral medicines with negative side effects, please give VOLTAREN a try. I hope you find the relief that I have."


"Im currently taking this and the first two entire packs were fine some minimal spotting that went away within a few days. This 3rd pack was fine until the cycle was supposed to start, I had breakthrough bleeding for 2 weeks. It has finally slowed down but hasn't stopped completely. Other than that this has worked decently but I feel there are too many other options for me to suffer like this."


"I have been dealing with Major Depressive Disorder for 9 years of my life, along with PTSD, and severe anxiety. I have been on so many different medications for depression, and have found that Prozac is the only anti-depressant that works for me. I have been as low as 10 mg, now currently on 20 mg. I am considering going to 30 mg. I have to see how I feel in the next number of days. I have been on this medication steadily for 6 months or so. I do have face twitches, but they are very minor and don't come very often. It really does help me get out into the world, and not be so affected by things emotionally. It's crucial to my well being and emotional state, and has prevented me from hurting myself for a long time."


"I got this implant in August 2016 , at first it was terrible!  My period stayed on for 9 days , I was depressed  all the time and my cramps were the worse . But after the 9 days my period went off an just came on in October, but it's been on for 3 weeks now and it's driving me crazy !"


"I'm so glad I didn't read these reviews before getting the iud inserted---I would have been terrified! Everyone is saying how it's so painful....umm? No. I'd say minor discomfort for a few seconds and that's it. I've had a little spotting since it was inserted but nothing crazy."


"I am s 36 yr women that has had M.S. for 15 years. I had back pain severely, and part of the problem was fatigue and I was very heavy. My neurologist put me on Adderall 3 years ago and I must say that the weight came off. I started feeling better physically and emotionally! I feel like a productive member of society when I take my medicines. So I guess I needed it for not just the weight loss, but for depression also. If anybody with M.S. that has severe fatigue and weight gain, I suggest this medicine to you. It's a proven fact that people with Neurological disorders should be on this medicine if you don't have high blood pressure! Try it, it works!"


"I just got it today so I can only review the insertion itself. I took one 800mg Ibuprofen and a natural cramp reliever called

Cyclease, which I got from a health foods store, 30 minutes prior to my appointment. I was nervous, but the whole procedure took only about 5 minutes total, with 2 minutes of distinct discomfort and 3 severe cramping moments that lasted about 10-15 seconds each and caused me to grit my teeth, but nothing else. The doctor did not numb my cervix beforehand.  I have not had any pain or cramping for the rest of the day. I do not have kids and am pleased with the small size of this IUD. I am hoping that the side effects effects are not severe and that I can continue to use this method of birth control long term."


"I use this medication for the herniated disc in my neck. Severe pain went down my right arm. Couldn't deal with it, but ketoprofen made 95 to 100% of pain go away. Great stuff."


"I tried this medication when I was a teenager but did not stick with it because the irritation it caused me was unbearable. I wonder if it because my acne was worse and my skin more sensitive at the time but I can't remember how long I stuck with it. I started my current try with it about nine moths ago. I had about one-two months of redness, itchiness and a lot of skin flaking but as soon as this wore off (which it did completely) as my skin adapted to it, I started noticed big improvements:

I have had almost no blackheads which were causing me lot of scarring.

For most of the month I get no spots and when I do, it's just a few and they are MUCH smaller, less painful and disappear quicker and my skin overall looks clearer and more youthful"


"Dazidox is instant release oxycodone tablets, and works very well. I take the 20mg tablet for breakthrough pain, haven't needed a dose increase in over a year, and actually works every time!! No complaints at all with the medication!"


"I've had migraines for 30 years and was increasingly relying on Zomig - taking about 12 per month. Propranolol doesn't agree with me and was very sceptical about trying amitriptyline but it has been miraculous. I used to wake every morning with a headache at about 4am often developing into full blown migraines. Now I sleep like a baby and have been virtually headache free. I hope that it continues to work as bad migraines are so debilitating and were ruining my life. I've had no real side effects apart from felling a bit sleepy in the morning but that soon wears off."


"My psychologist originally suggested Lexapro to treat my anxiety and panic disorder, then my doctor prescribed it. I was told that it is not habit forming and that it has low side effects and works well to treat panic disorder. I started out on 10mg for 3 weeks then went up to 20mg. My side effects have been mild and have included nausea (the first few days), weight loss (which I don't mind) because of decreased appetite, mild increased sweating, and recently trouble falling asleep. All in all I am very pleased with it and have had only one panic attack in over a month. I used to have multiple ones weekly. I feel like I am finally getting my life back and I would recommend this medicine to anyone."


"Doctor recommended this. No prescrip needed in Canada. Excessive sweating in armpits. Used 3 evenings at bedtime. Itchy during application, but not insane. I Immedediately quit sweating.  Lasted about 3 months before needing to reapply. Use once every 3 weeks and keeps sweat away. I love it."


"I started taking this pill and within the month my urine was much darker.  I thought I was dehydrated and getting pneumonia as I also had a cough.  I went to the Dr and they gave me Augmentin.  Suddenly I was vomiting multiple times a day and nauseous all the time.  After running blood tests they found my liver was "very angry". I asked about the Sprintec and was told it wasn't a contributing factor.  After a month I quit taking it and immediately started feeling better.  After a liver biopsy I was diagnosed with Drug Induced Liver Damage.  Sprintec is terrible!"

"I had it put in place in January of 2008 and I love the way I don't have to remember to take the pill.  The procedure was painless just don't look while it's inserted.  I have had horrible periods since though which is the only fall back but a big one.  I have periods for 3 weeks now and it's completely unexpected periods where before when I was on the pill I was regular.  Now I have to decide whether the long periods are worth it, to keep it in place."


"Nasacort made my nose run like a faucet. It was almost like something in it triggered my allergies instead of helping them. I used it for a week before I realized it was what was causing me problems. Also caused blood to be in my snot. I would try anything else besides this. On a scale from. 1 to 10 I would rate Nasalcrom at 10 and Nasacort at 1."


"I started Contrave 1 week ago. I am 5'5", 230lbs and 40yrs old.  I'm tired of being over weight. I am so happy my insurance finally covered this medication. I was told to start with two  pills twice a day. At first I didn't because I was scared. I was taking 2 once a day. After day 3 I went up to four a day and besides needing to take some benedryl to help me sleep, I have had no side effects. I'm peeing like a mad woman, my appetite is way down and I feel good. I went to weigh myself this morning and I've lost 7lbs. I think I finally found something that's going to work for me. Super excited to see where this takes me."


"I took cortisone injections in my knee for 2 years the last few injections the pain was getting worse. Was tired of taking pain pills I found Euflexxa with my search. Very glad I did I took the print out to my ortho Dr. and ask him about what I found. I'm afraid of needles so they used numbing solution. I definitely did NOT feel any pain. Friday was my 2nd injection."


"It changed my life"


"I don't usually comment on things like this but I felt I needed to. I've been suffering from pain for as long as I can remember, along with chronic fatigue, stiffness, depression and a general loss of zest for life. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few months ago and started this medication (30mg for a month then upped to 60mg). I have to say it's been a miracle! I knew I was in pain but I didn't realize how much of me was in constant pain until it was taken away. My fatigue levels have improved drastically - I still need to nap in the day but it's not the crippling fatigue I suffered with before. I'm happy, mobile, pain free and full of energy thanks to this medication. I have also lost weight which is a great side effect!"


"This was a god send. After suffering from RLS for years I was only sleeping for a couple hrs a night. No matter how exhausted I was. The first night of starting ropinirole I actually managed 6hrs of sleep. It felt amazing. I was actually on the brink of committing suicide.  I couldn't function during the day.  Lost all joy in my life. Thank goodness for this drug. Have been on it for almost 10 yrs. Any side effects have been minor."


"70 yrs old. Have suffered from depression-bipolar since 17. Have been treated with tens of medications to no avail, except lithium for 43 yrs which no longer works. 4 yrs ago I was treated with Gabapentin, which seemed to decrease the depression already after initial dose of 300mg. Increased to 3*300mg to which I reacted well until general anaesthetic in dec 2015 for operation threw me into a deep depression. Any info on effect of anaesthetic on depression and any antidote?"


"Started Aug 18,2017 weight 227lb. Today October 4,2017 weight 199lb. So in a month and a half roughly I lost 28lbs. No excess skin issues with the rapid weight loss.
I have not really exercised, I tried one ran/walked 1.7 miles. I felt like crap for 2 days. So not trying that again for a while.
Every time I eat it feels like I just had Thanksgiving dinner. 2 spaghetti meatballs (seriously). Minimal appetite.
First week was brutal with side effects but I am glad I stuck it out. The only issue I seem to have now is sleeping. I wake up a lot in the night, but am able to go back to sleep. My appetite seems to be coming back a little. I noticed I can eat more than before but its still not much.

This medicine works for me 100"


"After total knee replacement and now the other knee is painful, nothing worked like tramadol. I had oxycodone, hydrocodone, did not work at all. One tramadol 50mg in the early morning and one at bedtime works wonders for me, makes pain more tolerable and helps me sleep at night. I don't know ehst I'd do without it."


"This medicine does what it's supposed to do. A 50mg capsule usually is enough to dispel panic attacks and return me to baseline. I don't take any more because I can't deal with the drowsiness during the day and I take something else for sleeping at night. No benzodiazepine-like euphoria, just simple no-frills relief."


"It helps with everyday activities and I stay attentive and more focused."


"With all medications my G.P. gives me daily, is a good reason to try Prozac, I have no days without stress, scared of some health problems, that might kill me, such as brain aneurysm, had 2 surgeries for it, and survived both, first one had less than 50% of surviving, as aneurysm started bleeding, was under for 5 hours, to a coiled process, taking 8 different medication at night and 5 in morning, to help combat diabetic type two, to chronic leg wound open for past 21 years. Scared of everything I do, as stress alone can trigger another brain aneurysm, and I need to stress out, my G.P. freaks out every time I want to try different drugs to ease tension, I smoke marijuana, was licensed by Government, but quit after a year, could write more,.."


"I know I'm still on my first pack, and onto week 9, but I've been nauseous, bloated, very moody, and depressed for most of this time. And honestly that would be bearable but 20 days of moderate to heavy bleeding with full on cramps that make me want to curl into a ball and cry has pretty much made me homicidal and I now hate all men. I wish I were exaggerating and if it wasn't for my fertility hanging on the line for me giving this an honest shot, I would've stopped after day seven."


"I'm 24 and I've been on this for about 2 years. I had quite a period which lasted about 3 weeks during the first month. I haven't actually had a period for about a year and a half now which is great. I haven't had any mood swings or anything. I haven't gotten pregnant yet so it seems to work well."


"My sleep doctor, I use a CPAP every night, gave me a sample to try as I work a "baby owl' shift from 5:00pm to 2:00 am. Best way to describe this medicine is a slow release caffeine pill. However, zero jitters and zero over active bladder. No buzz, no altered feelings of any kind. I can focus better with this in my system. If I can get a full six hours on my CPAP and take a 250mg pill an hour before my shift I can get my job done with an amazing amount of focus. My insurance was slow to cover, and even with them covering over half of the cost these little pills cost a bundle. Worth it for me, as I was spending close to the same amount per month on Red Bull and coffee."


"I had severe neck pain diagnosed as Degenerative Disc Disease. My doctor's PA prescribed a "Steroid Pack" (I don't recall the brand name) and some Oxycodone that I asked for.  The Steroid Pack worked practically instantly; and even though I got the Oxycodone script filled at the same time, I did not have to take even one!  The steroid pack was a decreasing dosage that lasted about a week and worked great."


"Both my boyfriend and I have taken this after a car accident and it does nothing for pain and gave him withdrawals and gave both of us disturbing nightmares."


"I have been on a 75mg of Elavil for over a year now for degenerative disc decease and 2 bad knees, it helps me sleep but the pain is still bad even with a morphine patch and oxycodone, but maybe my case is a rare one."


"I've had asthma all my life and after 14 years, montelukast was introduced to aid my other medication. For a year and a half my asthma was controlled, and then my dosage was doubled because I turned 16. After the increased dosage, my mental health worsened, and after dealing with terrible anxiety and depression for 18 months, I realised that it fitted with the time period that I'd been taking this and was worsened with increased dosage. It had all been side effects. The extra montelukast was a tipping point in my mental health and I became suicidal. I stopped using this immediately and my parents got me help, after 6 months I had recovered. I share this in the hope that it prevents the same thing from happening."


"I was prescribed it for a sinus infections infection but I'd gone to the doctor for a UTI. He dismissed the UTI for lack of any positive test results. This medication cleared up both after 8 days. I also felt well for the first time in years. I had energy, no joint paint, and my urethritis was completely gone. Now three month later the symptoms have slowly returned -except for the sinus infection- but having no positive test results for bacteria, I can't get any more of this. They need better tests!"


"I've been fighting the pain management battle for about 6 years now, and I can finally say that I might have finally won. Just really don't understand why doctors waste peoples time with anything else for actual chronic pain. Methadone is a God send! If anyone is reading this and is in pain, do yourself and your family a favor and find a
Dr that will prescribe this for you."


"I'm taking this for morning sickness, I feel like it has given me my life back. I lost over 6 lbs in 5 days due to nausea and vomiting, and was too sick to do anything for my toddler, myself, or my home. I can tell when it's starting to wear off (at about 6.5-7 hr.) because the nausea comes right back. I'll take being backed up and a little drowsy as a side effect... it allows me to eat and keep things down and be present in my family's life. Never thought I'd be so happy to take a medication, but I'm SO thankful for Zofran."


"I have been on benzodiazepines for several years..unfortunately  i had recently upped the dosage   to 2 mg due to  family stress and felt more depressed and panicking , craving for benzos... i then switched to amytriptiline, an unbelievable tiny dosage 2 mg, 1 drop a day..i have been taking it for aroind 10 days before going to bed... it helped a lot and i was able to discontinue benzos from day 1 (when i actually took 4 mg amytriptiline, 2 drops ,slept for 12 hours and woke up in the morning feeling...new, with a clear mind,  no more tortured by anxiety and panick attacks.... i know this seems incredible at such a low dose... i  m just wondering if this has a scientific explanation because im sure it is no placebo effect"


"It made me incredibly sleepy, which was a bonus. I took the medication combined with Lexapro, and gained 20 lbs in my first 3 months on both. Since I got off Seroquel my weight returned to normal."


"I was given this medication to treat anxiety and panic attacks. It has not helped me despite increasing the dosage to 900mg a day.  It's always so disappointing when the hope of relief from a new medicine leads nowhere."


"Bad mood swings on accutane. We couldn't  control him and vision problems began once he was on the 2nd dose. Dermologist took him off now we are trying minocycline."


"Good alternative to oral NSAIDs. It does get the medicine into your system and that helps."


"I have been on Arimidex for 4 years 4 months. I have had the hot flashes, vision issues, bone density weakening, joint pain and stiffness, depression, mood changes, insomnia, back and bone pain, thinning nails (of already thin nails), weakness in hands and now, my hair in breaking off and drying out. My doctor wants me to hold on to the end of the 5 years. Not sure I can."


"Hi everybody, Sweden's calling:
I've been on Otezla for more than 9 months and most of my Plaque Psoriasis have cleared up!
It seems like the scalp is showing some resistance but I'm not giving up.
Had some side effects like diahrrea and poor appetite in the begining but it's all fine now.
Take care!"


"I have been taking Inderal 80mg for about 10 years for migraines.  It has been a tremendous miracle for me.  My migraines were severe and I was getting them about once a week with an extra severe one that lasted for days at the onset of my period.  Since I've been taking Inderal I still get headaches, maybe 1 a week but nothing close to what I was getting before with the vomiting, nausea and being unable to function.  I don't believe I have had any significant side effects.  Hope this helps. "


"On day 9 of 14, 750mg, still sick but 75% feeling better. No sides effects so far."


"I have severe sciatica in my right leg and horrible back pain due to two herniated discs, and severe spinal stenosis from an injury. I've seen 3 doctors and have tried everything out there. Today my doctor prescribed 300mg gabapentin 3 times a day,  5 hours ago I took the first one and AMAZING! I can feel the pain going away!"


"I have used this medicine for inner ear problems, dizziness, that causes anxiety  for 15 years 1.5 mg per day along with 100mg of Zoloft  with very little side efects. It has helped me live with stress and anxiety that I had with my ear problem. Yes the Doctors don't know why this helps with inner ear problem, but that is O.K. it works. I know that Doctors are concerned about abuse and that sure can happen to a addictive person. I have never used more than what has been prescribed to me.  This may some day come back to hurt me, but I am 72 now and it has significantly improved my quality of life. Any questions you want ask me. At rutoft64@gmail.com"


"I've dealt with anxiety for the past 7 years, but about 2 months ago it got really bad. I started having at least one panic attack a day and it was really scary. I'm not a depressed person, but the anxiety was making me feel that way because I didn't know if I would go back to "normal" - I finally decided to see the doctor and tried Zoloft. I didn't have any side effects, just mild anxiety that got better day to day. A couple of high anxiety days in between, but all in all... I was getting back to myself. Here I am, a couple of months later and COMPLETELY back to normal! I feel so happy and thankful that I decided to try medicine."


"I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis since I was 17 had a colonscopy done and that's when I was prescribed Asacol. It was terrible my diarrhea was just horrible, it also came with a a lot of blood. I started taking Asacol about 9 pills daily after about a couple of months the diarrhea was completely gone. That's when I thought it was okay to stop taking them so about 4 years later the flares started happening again. So I don't recommended delaying the pills. "


"I have tried so many medications for my numerous manic episodes and nothing even came close to the benefits I have experienced with Saphris. It reduced my anxiety and agitation profoundly. I have not had another episode after being on Saphris for over six months. I have an overall sense of well being and much more functional. I've lost 50lbs after being on Zyprexa. Saphris is a wonderful medicine and has given me hope and I am slowly rebuilding my life. It might taste really bad but it is all worth it."


"my blood sugar was 300 to 400+, last week I got a fast pass to the Hospital because it went up to 500+, my doctor put me now on Victoza and my blood sugar is around the 166, I know is the first week, but yeah, Nausea, Headache, the feeling of fever and pokes on the stomach are there.  What I did was instead of the 1.2 doses I'm supposed to be, I started from about .6, hopefully I'll be on 1.2 by next week, .

be ready for pregnant side effects,

Monistat 1-Day or Night Combination Pack

"The itching is very very intense about 5 minutes after you use it. It goes away (I've used it before) this same reaction happened last time and I'm sure this is how the product works. After my 1 day treatment my infection went away! It's a good product and gets the job done. Although I could do without the mad itching feeling... It really does help, you just have to get over the few hours of pain and itching."


"I just want to share my experience because I'm pretty impressed with this pill. I was on another pill previously and it was okay except for the fact that I would spot ALL THE TIME, which got annoying. So my Dr suggested I try this to see if my spotting would stop and at first I was hesitant to try it due to bad reviews I've read but I'm glad I tried it anyways because so far I don't have any negative reaction to it. No headaches, no increased appetite, no weight gain, no breast tenderness, I don't find myself really emotional, no pmsing which is great. I would recommend trying it, it take about 3 months for your body to adjust to bc pills. I'm glad it's working out for me, better than the previous pill I was on :)"


"June 2, 2015 was the date that I first received the Nexplanon implant. When I first got it, my period was way off. I would bleed for about 2 weeks and stop for only a day or two before bleeding for another couple of weeks. This happened for the first month or two, and I haven't bled since. I do enjoy not having a period, but I can't help but wonder what negativity that is doing to my body. It seems to do its job as far as birth control goes. Cons: weight gain/excessive appetite, nonstop mood swings, anger, depression, lack of motivation, random severe cramps. I'm getting it taken out tomorrow because I can't handle the emotional stress any longer. I don't recommend to anyone who already suffers from mental disorders."


"Great results on this medicine. The first couple of days I was a bit tired but that went away quick. My doctor prescribed it to me for general anxiety and not depression. So no crazy thoughts or ideas. I take it in the morning and that's it. No disruption of my sleep patterns. Actually I sleep like a baby. Very positive experience."


"I dunked it with out ice, awful taste, But when I put ice and lemon in it, it was awesome, just like lemonade. I strongly recommend ice in your glass. By the way those powders that comes with it, they are very sweet and doesn't taste good but ice and lemons is the best. It is a lot of drink, I did it in 2 days after 5."


"I'm 41, using for cramps and excessive bleeding. My doc gave me 3 months of samples. First and second month, spotted for about a week, then got actual period, for a total of about 10 days bleeding, granted it was lighter, but still had some cramping. Also it all started during the third week of the pills, not the fourth. Terrible mood swings, fatigue. Now halfway through third month, terrible acne. It's like puberty all over again."


"Amlodipine besylate 5mg is soooooo EVIL. IF I had known about this medication before I started taking it. I WOULD HAVE NEVER AGREED TO GET IT. This medicine makes you feel like you're having a heart attack and stroke. Trying to stop taking this medication is like you feel like you have an addiction. It's  like the medication tries to FORCE YOU to take it because of the harsh side effects. I had to basically dumped the medication down my garbage disposal. For 5 days I felt HORRIBLE. I felt throbbing sensation around my jaw. The pressure moved down to my neck. It felt like someone  was squeezing my neck. Also I felt tingling sensation  in both arms. I immediately told my doctor I can't take this medication anymore."


"I've been taking methylphenidate (Ritalin) for years. I started during my professional career, because according to my psych, I am "too smart to sit still", and that because of that, my brain gets bored easily then my attention span fades. With Ritalin I can focus like a laser on tasks, get much more done, stay organized, and it also helps with that afternoon sleepiness. Added bonus is it revs up your basal metabolic rate, and reduces appetite so you can lose weight easily.

Downside, it increases BP. If you have high BP you may want to avoid it.

I take a 20 mg pill 3-4 times a day, never after dinner if you want to sleep."


"This pill was great for regulating my periods and making them lighter. However, I constantly felt I was walking around in a cloud. I had ZERO sex drive, and the anxiety and anxiety attacks were getting out of hand. This medication also caused my chest pains. I went to my primary and she without a doubt said that these birth control pills were causing the anxiety attacks. I also gained weight. The worse part was it started to make me feel extremely depressed. Anyone already on depression meds or struggling with depression SHOULD NOT take this pill. Won't ever try birth control pills ever again."


"I used this for 2 months, it made no difference, the cream is absolutely useless, don't waste your time, don't get it"


"I was prescribed Tramadol for depression a year ago (50 mg, 3x day).  I felt like I had the flu so I stopped after 3 days. About 1 1/2 months ago I started to take it again (only 1- 50 mg per day in AM).  I currently take adderrall and xanax as they are the only meds that help my depression /anxiety without the terrible side effects. Since on Tramadol I have been more motivated and productive then I can ever remember!  I stopped for a couple days and experienced the flu like symptoms again, but I have gone back again on a regular daily schedule.  Not sure if I should up the dosage to 100 mg but this has been the best med for me, and I've taken many. Definetly a life changer and I'm optimist about the future for the 1st time in my life."


"I had 2 different nexplanons in my arm thru a 4 year period. This is why I regret ever getting the nexaplanon.

1.) It made me have awful acne

2.) the hormonal changes made my hair thin and cause great hair loss.

3.) it made me a CRAZY BEEOTCH and very irrational.

4.) I would spot all the time

5.) I had scars in my arm from getting the first one removed.

6.) Made me gain a lot of weight.

7.) Made me depressed.

Its not worth it. at least for me."


"I am only on day 1, and took 1 pill this morning and 1 this afternoon (not knowing I was only suppose to take one daily for the first week)  I feel fine, although I fell asleep at work, I got extremely tired after my lunch meal(gumbo) and my legs feel like they need to be stretched every time I stand up. No dizziness and nausea as most have said. thankfully, and hopefully this works for me. 245weight, looking to drop 45lbs."


"I discovered this site today while looking for other answers to the generic versions of Effexor XR.  I was on Prozac for about 4 years due to my MS and caring for and losing both my husband and mother to Cancer in a 18 month time frame.  I asked to switch to something else as Prozac didn't really help. It took a bit to wean me and put me on a low dose of Effexor ER 75mg a day and I eventually got bumped to 150mg a day of Effexor XR.  It's been a real life saver for me, I feel normal and do not have days of tears for no reason. "


"Worked well after 5 days. Best if taken with cup of yogurt to avoid abdominal cramping."


"I think Yaz is a good birth control pill overall. My doctor switched me to this pill b/c it is one of the lowest doses out there- I needed to go back on bc pills because I suffered from hot flushes as soon as I went off the pill. It took two weeks on Yaz to stop the hot flushes (I'm only 42, by the way) and I feel so much better. I do agree, however, that it does make me a little tired and I do have some headaches (during the period week)- but nothing like the monster headaches I got on some other brands. All in all-a good product. I will be on it as long as my doctor allows me to- hopefully to 50."


"38 year oid female - within three days of taking this medication (1/day at lowest dosage) I was suicidal. Depression, but NO previous history of suicidal tendencies. There were no other changes in my life other than this medication. I recovered quickly after stopping taking Focalin. I also had strong negative reaction to Vyvanse. Doc said there was something unusual about how my body metabolizes this particular medications. Concerta has done well for me, considering Ritalin SR due to cost."


"I have been on this pill for about a year and a half now... At first, my periods were heavy and irregular but now I am down to a regular cycle of one really light period every month (lasting about 2-3 days max). Before I started the pill, I had problems with acne and now I have virtually none at all. No weight gain. The only negative side effects that I've experienced are some weird mood swings every now and then. But for me, this pill is everything I could have hoped for, just wish it were a little cheaper."


"Ok my wife has been on this zobsolv for over a week now. At first it seemed, to help her yesterday she woke up with a rash on her lower arms. She has gotten really depressed her anxiety has gone thru the roof she snaps back at the slightest things. It is not helping  with her cravings, its seems the longer she takes it the further my wife becomes a different person she was doing pain pills. I'm starting to think it was better she stayed on the pain pills. Has anyone else heard of anything like this before I'm at a lost for words and idk what i need to do or what to do at this point other than start cutting her dosages down and ween her of this garbage......"


"In April 2010 I was went into Grand mal seizures which was found to be due to brain cancer. After surgery and sent home I was put on Keppra. As of Feb 2012 I have not had a seizure since but I have found this medicine makes me very tired and I itch all over all the time. I was taking 500mg in the morning and 500 in the evening. Then we changed it to 1000mg in the evening and none in the morning. I find it very hard to get motivated in the mornings. I want to stay in bed and sleep. I take antidepressants but I'm not depressed or crying. I had been and they felt under the circumstances I need to stay on the antidpressant. We tried changing it and I still stayed very tired and that is why I am sure its the Keppra making me so tired. Otherwise Kuddos."


"I've always been hesitant to use acne medication in the morning because I felt like it would do nothing for me. Also I have to wear makeup before I leave the house so the only thing I usually have underneath my foundation is a moisturizer. I've added Acanya to my regime for the past week or so and my face has improved almost instantly. My pores look smaller and I haven't gotten any new bumps and the ones I already have are going away. I say stick to this product even if you don't see improvements at first! Hopefully I'll see more improvements"


"I had the worst experience on this medication. First, I recieved 2 shots. Secondly, I was on my period for 3 entire months, non-stop, heavy bleeding. Third, I gained roughly 25 pounds on the shot. Thankfully, I have changed birth controls and have been off the shot now for over a year, but as soon as I stopped the injections, the weight melted off without any change in diet or exersise."


"If you want to torture yourself, than take this. Seriously, it is the second time that i get an infection, and the first time i took canesten 3 days treatement... this time i tought.. hey why not try this one instead, the pharmacien said it could cure it too.... BIG MISTAKE... my VaJayJay was literally on fire... it has been 4hrs since i took the first pill, and it is still burning... it is unbearable... the itching got 100X worst than the infection itself... it shouldnt be in the market... pure poison..."


"The best drug ....I felt almost normal on 15 milligrams ."


"After taking Chantix for only a week, I was able to stop smoking completely without any horrific withdrawals or anxiety. The very first pill I took made a noticeable difference in the taste of cigarettes - they started to become disgusting, and after awhile I was smoking just because I had them around rather than because I really wanted them. Once I ran out, I just didn't buy anymore and still haven't. It's been almost 16 days now without a cigarette, and I honestly never think about them anymore. The worst side effect is nausea, which made me vomit only once, but after reducing my dosage by half I do not have anymore side effects. I also don't take the medication twice a day. I only take half of a pill at night. It works wonders!"


"Waking up sweating bad in the night, tired all the time. I'm takin 30mg but apart from that I feel ok"


"I broke my jaw in two places and had to have my jaw wired shut. My teeth were pretty banged up as well and I'm probably going to have to get some root canals or teeth removed once my jaw heals up, but I can say that for as long as I was taking ketorolac, I wasn't experiencing basically any pain, nor was I groggy or tired. Now I have to switch to ibuprofen, but ketorolac did the job for my time with it."


"In reading the reviews, I take my 40mg dose of Viibryd in the morning with a light breakfast, as I am also type 2 diabetic.  The titrated dosage worked to perfection, and I an focused, energetic, and not gaining weight.  Perhaps the error is evening dosing.  I once accidentally took it at bedtime, and was awake for the whole night.  My feeling is evening dosing is an error on the part of the practitioner."


"I have been using Loestrin for about 5 months now. The first 3 months I would get a bit of nausea and cramps, but the doctor said to keep taking for three months because it is supposed to resemble pregnancy! I was fine after the 3 months. I haven't had too many problems with it for the past 2 months. This month have been having really bad stomach aches and cramps. I'm not sure if it is the pill or something else? "


"I had my first seizure when I was 17 (now 23). I always wanted to be on a medications that was safe so one day when I had a family. And now have my family with a healthy boy. I do have to say I was having the depression, I was having dizzy spills and really bad headaches. But I talked to my doctor he lowered my dose and gave me Topamax to take with it. And now my headaches are gone. It is very hard to actually to find the right medication for yourself. I wish you all the best!"


"Best drug for me so far.  Very few side effects;  I don't drink nor smoke so maybe that helps.  Very happy I don't get the nightmares I used to with Luvox, Zoloft and Paxil.  It's more effective than Wellbutrin too.  Slight nausea, and at night every now and then a little tingling in my legs , but nothing I can't deal with.  Very happy...."


"This medication is by FAR the most effective one I have ever tried to relieve my ADD/ADHD/Narcolepsy/& Obesity issues.  This medicine certainly causes less anxiety than phentermine AND other amphetamines.  Sadly, people are ignorant and choose to attack a very safe and effective medicine that probably saves many lives. Desoxyn is the only sure-fire medicine to aid in treating attention deficit and fatigue!  At doses of 30mg-60mg a day, the medication is effective.  Don't think that 1- tablet is going to help - the effective CLINICAL dose is in the 20mg range-70mg. "


"I am trying to register on the 'Saxenda Care' online support program, but, cannot, because it wants me to register with an American zip code and state, and I am Canadian.  Can you please direct Canadian's on how they might register for this program, so we can receive guidance and support."


"I started out on Differin, Duac and an oral skin antibiotic, which improved my acne about 90%.  About 2 weeks ago, my dermatologist took me off the oral antibiotic and switched me over to just Atralin.  So far, I am breaking out again but I am hoping it is just the initial adjustment period causing it to do this (getting better before it gets worse).  I will give it another week or two and then I will probably go back in if it doesn't improve.  The upside is that it does not cause a lot of peeling or irritation, as did the other creams.  I have very sensitive and maturing skin so I thought this would be a great choice for me."


"After years of thinking life was over and I would have to live with paranoia in public, voices in my head and uncomfortable horrific feelings for life I tried this and within a month it evenly spreaded what I was once missing in my head from being traumatized by the death of my grandpa. At first my tounge was numb and anxiety was high the next day after taking 40mg at night with food but taking serequel or hydroxzine every 6 hours frequently they coordinated perfect with each other and through out my experience I forgot about the thoughts, delusions, and was able to live my life care free as my psychosis being a bad memory"


"I have had post nasal drip for almost two years. I was first diagnosed with acid reflux and put on Zegerid. I took it once a day with no results. I was tested for allergies, with minimal results, endoscopy, etc. and they couldn't figure out what the problem was.  I even went to the head of a hospital in NYC for a second opinion and he said to increase the reflux medication.  Still no relief. My ENT suggested Patanase and within a week, the nasal drip was gone. It is amazing,  I would recommend this medicine to anyone suffering from post nasal drip.  No side effects whatsoever and I am a happy person."


"Very effective. Incredibly expensive."


"I love Ambien - it slows my racing, worried mind and lets me sleep through the night. I just take 5 mg tablet and that works great. I am a Type 1 diabetic for 43 years, and notice no side effects."


"I'm about 10 hours into my prep. First time colonoscopy. First sip of Suprep at 6 PM seemed fine. Now merely typing the word makes me gag. Took 40 minutes to get down the first dosage. Took effect fairly quickly; spent the next four (!) hours in my bathroom. Dreaded second dosage, which I began choking down at 2 AM. Had to just do it while on the toilet because my body was still reeling from dose one. About 45 minutes into gagging down the second dosage, I began salivating profusely and proceeded to projectile vomit three to four times, effectively spewing out the medication. Managed to get down the remaining 4 ounces and anticipate I'll be on my toilet til I have to leave for the procedure in 90 minutes. Wish I had bought adult diapers."


"Weight gain, no positive aspects for me."


"Topomax combined with Melatonin have prevented me from waking up and eating in middle of the night. Has allowed me to diet and make progress. However, side effects have been challenging, mental fog, reduced sex drive are just a few."


"I took 40 mg of Paxil for about 2 years over 11 years ago for panic, anxiety and moderate depression.  It worked very well for me.  I did take Xanax while the Paxil was building up in my body.  After about 4 weeks I didn't need the Xanax any more.  About 6 weeks ago my anxiety and panic began to increase to a point I knew I needed help in addition to my exercise, healthy eating etc.  I went to my doctor to get Paxil.  I started on 10 mg for a week and had increased anxiety, which I controlled with 0.25 mg of Xanax once a day.  I went up to 20 mg on day 8 and had severe anxiety and bad thought for about 36 hours.  Suddenly, just like that it was all gone.  I now feel great!  Some side effects, but worth the sanity!"


"I was prescribed Genfura (Nitrofurantoin) after a previous antibiotic was ineffective in curing a UTI. UTI symptoms were completely gone within 3 days, but I had major side effects within hours of taking the first pill.

Side effects:

Worst flu like symptoms of my life and I nearly went to A&E I was so sick. I had a high fever for 2 days, chills, shallow laboured breathing, no appetite, nausea, constipation, extreme weakness, severe headache and I couldn't leave my bed for 2 days.

Strangely the side effects went away as soon as they came on, and 4 days into the medication I feel fine."


"I started at  25 mg and slowly increased to 100 mg my appetite is much decreased . I do still crave sweets but find I have more control. I have went from 175 to 153 in 5 months and am still losing weight. I don't exercise and try to eat healthy which I do believe helps"


"I started using this product about a month ago and I started seeing results immediately! I suffered from coarse chin hair and would often get ingrown hairs that led to scarring from constant tweezing and irritation. I barley have to tweeze anymore and when I do the hairs are thin and come out very easy. I do not know if this product has skin lightening agents in it but I have also noticed that my scarring has faded as well! After suffering for years and not being able to leave the house without make-up I am happy to say that because of this product I am starting g to feel confident in my own skin again! I absolutely would recommend this product to anyone who could use it. I am consistent with applying twice a day and am very happy with it!"


"I got immediate improvement switching from omeprazole 20mg and 40mg to prevacid 30mg for my long term struggle with severe acid reflux. I still occasionally supplement with a Pepcid Complete at bedtime, but overall I'm much better."


"I have been on Gianvi for over a year now and I love it. I lost some weight, but with that my breasts also got a bit smaller. The headaches I was getting on my previous birth control are completely gone, and I get my period for 2 days and its extremely light, compared to my 2 week long extremely heavy period. On my previous birth control I gained some weight, my breasts got huge, and I got terrible headaches, but none of that with Gianvi. I know a lot of people have terrible side effects, but honestly I love Gianvi. (I was previously on Ortho Tri- Cyclen Lo)."


"I've been on Tegretol for 4 days. It has taken me from excruciating pain to dull soreness. It's a wonder drug. I'm sleepy but almost pain free. I'm lucky that I was diagnosed after only six weeks. I'm praying it lasts!"


"I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 17 and was prescribed Dilantin. I was having grand mal seizures and it was working ok. When I was 22 I moved to Florida and saw a new neurologist and he said Dilantin was an old drug and put me on keppra. I'm taking 1500mg twice a day and I'm having more grand mal seizures and partial complex zone outs. Keppra has not helped at all and I'm going to a new doctor for a different opinion on what to take."


"I was diagnosed 6 years ago with Supraventricular tachycardia.  I am a 49 year old female.  Since that time I have been taking a 50 mg tablet of Toprol every other day.  I have had no other attacks since then and I used to get them about 5x a year.  Once in a while I can feel one coming on - my heart starts beating very fast - but apparently the Toprol is doing it's job because I have not had any attacks.  I am so thankful for this medication as I suffered for many years thinking I was going to die, my heart would be so hard and fast. One time I could actually see my chest moving and it went on for about 20 minutes."


"Well I had unprotected sex and an hour later I took the plan b pill, I looked at reviews online of women saying they got pregnant even after they took plan b, but they also didn't mention how long after their incident they took it which was probably not soon enough. Plan b worked for me I got my period 2 weeks and a day early and I can't be more happy. I do recommend taking plan b the day of the incident or even the day after but I felt better by taking it the day of! The best way is to not have unprotected sex stops you from wondering and worrying! Hope I was helpful!"


"If your face doesn't respond to over the counter products, you don't need to try everything out there.  ProActiv, SkinID, OXY, they are all the same!  Don't hesitate to try this miracle drug.  Pay attention to the side effects, of course, but this is not just a treatment, it is a cure.  I had severe acne from 16 - 20 and I tried everything!  Doctors were so reluctant to use this Accutane, keeping it as a last resort.  Once they were finally convinced I wasn't responding to anything else, and that I wouldn't just outgrow it, they finally put me on it, and the results were dramatic.  Within weeks, I could actually feel the change in my skin.  My skin finally felt normal, instead of greasy and painful.  I wasn't afraid to touch it anymore."


"I have not started yet. I actually found out I had Hep C genotype 1a last year with a viral load of 16,100,000, yes that is right 16 million 100. I tryed to get approved for Harvoni and Zepatier, but I was turned down 16 times, because I was not sick enough. My doctor did my viral load again about a month ago and it went up to 19,568,000, which means in little ova a year it went up more then 4 million and I was not getting more infected by Hep C, because I've been sober 16 months. So we finally put it in for the 17th time, and I got approved. So i will have 8 wks of treatment but I know I will need more cause my viral load is so high, so it better easier to get the second approval a lot easier. Wish me luck."


"On May 21, 2017, I shared a review, and want to add something that happened to me recently.  I always take my Movantic 25 MG, in the morning with my coffee.  Within a half an hour, I have a bowel movement enviably.  The only side effect is flatulence (gas).  The other morning, I ate first, then took my Movantic 25 MG; around a hour and a half later.  I NEVER had a bowel movement that day, and my stomach was really bothering me badly.  The next day, I took it as I normally do, and once again had a bowel movement, without any issues; except for flatulence (gas).  Hope this helps!"


"When I first started taking this medication I changed from Lovan, and for about 2 weeks I felt on top of the world! I was motivated, full of energy and was actually laughing after a long period of depression. It was all downhill from there... I reached the point where my brain just didn't feel "right", I was more depressed than ever, feeling desperate and looking for a way out of feeling so low. I stopped taking the medication, initially to piss off my husband, and it was then that I realized this medication was the cause of my depressive moods, anxiety and anger. I would not recommend this medication to anyone without close psychiatric monitoring."


"I stopped after a week due to significantly decreased libido; I'm giving it a few stars because I'm not sure if it would have eventually helped my anxiety and depression since I wasn't on it long enough."


"I have been on Seroquel 300mg for over 5 years. I suffer from bipolar disorder, with this you don't sleep. Also am a recovering drug addict, due to pain from back surgery. If I didn't have this medicine I don't think I could live.
This drug is taken with other medicines."


"I began Suboxone a week ago while in quite bad withdrawal from heroin. I was in a detox facility and lying on the dirty bathroom floor crying, because of so much pain in my abdomen. The nurse gave me a Suboxone and within an hour to an hour and a half I was up and eating and felt no pain whatsoever, even my arthritis didn't hurt.
While I am afraid of withdrawing from the Suboxone, I know it can't be as bad as that day on the bathroom floor.
Not only has it helped with my addiction to heroin, but I had to stop taking my Xanax in order to take the Suboxone and I haven't had a craving or desire for the Xanax either. I have been taking Xanax for 5 years or more and found Suboxone removed the withdrawal from them also."


"I've struggled with fibromyalgia for 15 years. I was prescribed prednisone for bronchitis and in one days time I was pain free and had energy thru the roof! I struggle a lot with daily things and not having strength or energy to do them. It's very depressing. I've considered asking my doctor to give it to me on a daily basis but I'm a little unsure. The bone weakening and weight gain concern me. Especially since I'm a mature women at age 42. Anyone that takes it, I ask do the pros outweigh the cons? Btw I'm a recovering addict. Was addicted to pain pills. All prescribed by pain doctor for the fibromyalgia. I chose to come off them but had to have help. Will prednisone do me the same way?? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks and God Bless!"


"Best antidepressant I've tried. On 225mg, also on 5mg Olanzapine for BPD (helps with mood & anxiety). Best combo I've had to date, but doesn't make me energetic, but alleviates the C-PTSD, BPD and IBS, so it's a winner."


"My boyfriend is an alcoholic. He has been to treatment multiple times. He has suffered innumerable consequences.  For the last year I have been on the roller coaster of trying to find a way to be understanding and so on. It's been so, so, so hard. For the past month he has been taking this and so far it's been amazing! No drinking. He says his cravings are drastically reduced. His libido has taken a hit, but I'll take that over living with an active alcoholic any day."


"So I promised myself if this works, I have to write a review to put someone out of their worrying misery because believe me I WAS SCARED FOR 2 WEEKS STRAIGHT. So I had sex with my s/o on August 1st, with no condom or form of birth control (yes I know dumb but hey I'm human ya know) and he came in me, completely. On this day, my period tracker app said I was fertile so this was completely worst case scenario to me. I took the plan b 3 hours after the incident, but boy let me tell you! I was nauseous for the whole week! In my head I was like "yup, I'm done for. I'm pregnant."

Fast forward to August 17th, I got my period a day early and it is HEAVY and PAINFUL. Plan b works. RELAX PLEASE!"


"It was really good medicine for people with anxiety and panics disorders. I been taking sertraline (Zoloft) 100 mg and Buspar 20 mg total morning and evening and it was really helping me out with general anxiety and reduce panics from my daily life. I had this thing when I go in to any store myself I feel like everyone is watching me like I am going to steal something. That triggers my anxiety and my stomach aches and breathing pattern switch to worst situation ever. Facial all red and it was really painful life. Buspar took care 70 percent of that problem for others was 9 out of 10. I say Yes to Buspar. I suggest talk with your psychiatrist about acute anxiety and consult about having Buspar."
