"This is my first experience with Suprep.  I read all the reviews, and was wondering how I would react to this prep.  I mixed the Suprep with water in the container as directed.  It wasn't salty, just very sweet tasting.  Very tolerable.  Made my blood sugar spike for one hour.  I drank it in about ten minutes.  Used a straw at first, then just drank it out of the container.  I waited about five minutes, then drank one 16oz container of water in about 25 minutes by taking big sips.  Waited another five minutes, drank the second 16oz container in the same way.  There was some minor bloating but not too bad.  No cramping.  The Suprep produced results about 25-30 minutes after I started drinking it.  I would definitely use this product again!"


"I take this for my Spina Bifida. Helps so much!"


"Took this all throughout high school and I never experienced acne because of it. This pill sure does a great job at keeping break outs away. I'd get an occasional blemish or two but that's better than what I have now. I got off Ortho Cyclen 6 months ago. Worst decision of my life, I'm cursed with acne that's covered my face, neck, shoulders, and back. This is because a hormonal imbalance which I think acne sufferers should look into. I think it's time to get back on this magnificent pill. Side note, it does a great job at preventing cramps and my periods were so light and non existent, I would sometimes forget I'm even on it."


"I had the Mirena fitted 6 and a half years ago, and  was on my second coil up until today when I had it removed. I had been to the doctors on numerous occasions complaining of tiredness, weight gain and inability to lose weight, huge and tender breasts, numbness in my fingers, palpitations, yellowing and dry eyes, shortness of breath, diarrhea, swollen legs, headaches, stomach cramps and an uncontrollable itching all over. The doctor did blood tests and they came back normal every time, and not on any occasion did he mention it could be my coil. I can't believe I have been putting up with this for all this time. I was a 10 and a half stone when I had it fitted. I am now 14 and a half stone. My bra size was 36C now its 38F."


"I am 34 years old and have been a sufferer of cold sores from the age of 9 or 10.  I asked my doctor about treatment and she prescribed Valtrex for me in 2002.  When I get that tingling feeling in my lip I take a pill then take one exactly 12 hours later. I have not had a visible cold sore in nearly 10 years.  Valtrex is a little expensive, about $4.00 per pill, and I use about 15-20 pills per year.  As a long time user I would definitely recommend this medicine to anyone."


"I just got put on clindamycin for cellulitus, and immediately when I took it, started having the worst chest pains as if I was having an anxiety attack. I thought it was my infection until the side effects of the medicine kept occuring into the next two days! I said enough was enough, I stopped taking them and went to my doctor. I couldn't sleep or lay down. Heartburn is an understatement, this antibiotic made me feel like I was dying. Never ever again will I take it, I'll go with the alternative. If anyone is freaking out about clindamycin and these side effects, I hope this helps. Stop taking them, Go see your doctor again, find an alternative. No one should have to deal with these side effects."


"I took adipex in August of 2015. Starting weight 232lb. Lost 16lbs the first month and got off the pill. I kept up my workout routine and lost and additional 17lbs the following month. I kept the weight off until December 2016. Well its September 26, 2017 and I'm back up to 230lbs.  Today is my first day back on Adipex. I plan to eat better, drink more water and exercise a lot more than I did the first time to get better results!!! So excited. My goal weight is 175lbs.... wish me luck!"


"Works good but my co-pay with Insurance is very expensive."


"Was given this medication post hysteroscopy when I suffered severe hip, knee and leg pain. Nothing touched it. Had major painkillers to no effect. Baclofen was a lifesaver. Also have fibromyalgia and the bonus is I can feel a massive difference with that now as well. Am a bit dizzy, hope it will pass in time cause the benefits are worth it! No other side effects at all."


"Provigil worked for my narcolepsy for about 6 months. After that, I began to have bouts of insomnia at night and became ultra sleepy during the day times. I was prescribed sleep medications to help combat the new side effects. Things did not seem to improve. I also gained 40 pounds during the time I took Provigil (which was a total of 9 months). As a woman, gaining weight was my LEAST desirable side effect of all. Finally, I switched off of Provigil and returned to what was working for me originally, Adderall XR 30 mg one to two times per day (depending on what my schedule was like that day). I only switched off of Adderall XR originally because my doctor was concerned about the potential long term cardiovascular effects on my body."


"I've had implanon since Aug of 2015 and I must say, it works really well. For the first 2 - 3 months, I didn't get a period, but I did spot. I spotted about 2 x a week, but after that it went away. I love this method of birth control, however, the only thing I really dislike is the fact that it makes you eat sooo much and then you gain weight. Not sure if it happens to everyone, but that's what I experienced. It made me eat a lot and a lot of weight was gained. But overall, I LOVE the birth control method."


"I've read through a bunch of these reviews and although I know everyone is different, I feel a GREAT need to share what exactly happened to me while I had Mirena placed in my body. When the doctors say "mild" cramping, they are NOT speaking for everyone. I was in EXCRUCIATING pain. I passed out in the doctor's office TWICE and then vomited violently until they gave me a shot of medication to ease the pain enough so my body would stop having such a horrible reaction. "


"This product works great provided that you use it immediately at the first sign of a cold sore.  If you wait too long to use it's like dousing a fire after it has already burned your house."


"This is definitely not the same Differin Gel that the doctor prescribed years ago.  Don't expect the same results from the over-the-counter Differin Gel.  The products are not the same!!!"


"Using Chantix was the best decision I have made! It won't make you quit smoking but if your ready it's a great tool. I followed the directions as it said and on the seventh day I quit and havnt picked up another cigarette. I did gain a few pounds the first 2 weeks after quitting but after that I went back to my normal eating habits although I do chew a lot of gum. I only experienced weird dreams as side effects which went away after a few weeks, definitely not bothersome.  I definitely recommend Chantix if your ready!"


"I been on this patch like 2 weeks and so far it has eliminated my hot flashes. Works very fast and I have felt no side effects."


"At first I took Cymbalta and it really helped me for awhile.  I then tried the Savella, I have so much more energy. I don't lie around on the couch all day. I still have to take it easy and I do have my bad days because I have Sjorgrens also but it has improved my pain and my stamina.  I can even plan ahead a little bit."


"I started Trulicity this week with Trasiba- took it on Sunday and it's now early hours of the following Saturday morning. I was on Lavimeer- 60 units in morning and same again in the evening plus novo rapid before meals- anything from 10-20 units and my blood sugar was always fluctuating but generally above 10. Blood sugar is now at 7.3 all day every day so much better- long may it continue. Off Lavimeer completely and hardly needing novo rapid. Have lost 7lb in 6 days - again long may that continue. Appetite is well controlled but went out for a meal yesterday lunchtime and really suffered which I'm assuming is the side effects of Trulicity- severe toilet issues, abdominal pain and vomiting. I hope this gets better- I'm going to persevere!"


"I've had the nexplanon implant for just under three months. The beginning had some unpleasant side effects but not much worse than any other hormonal birth control; 9 day moderate to light bleeding but then no period for two months.  Effects that still persist are that my appetite increased noticeably and came with cravings for red meat even though I've been a vegetarian for years. I still get a little crampy each month, and migraines. My breasts are usually tender and have increased an entire cup size. I've put on about 12 pounds; thats after slacking off on my once regular workout routine. I'm back at the gym and the lbs are coming off, but don't let it creep up on you.  You absolutely MUST exercise regularly, or you'll gain weight fast."


"Suffered from a YI for about a week now, because you know, hard to get to a pharmacy in the hurricane, and since my gyno hadn't opened yet to call in my normal remedy route of diflucan, I tried the monistat 1 ovule. Store was out of everything else. Now I know why. Woke up 3 hrs later feeling like 1,000 fire ants were stinging me down there! It was awful! A warm bath to try to rinse this stuff out and cold compress provide immediate relief but burning is back if you're not submerged in water or icing it down. Those saying "maybe you aren't treating a YI" or "maybe it's an allergic reaction", consider that over 40% of women apparently using this are suffering the same misery. That is not a misdiagnosed treatment or allergy. That's just a bad product."


"I first took Paxil in high school for minor depression but weaned myself off of it in college. About a year later I began having awful, day-long panic attacks which caused me to take two months off from school. So back on the Paxil I went, knowing that I would probably be taking it for life. I have tried several other medicines as well, but they didn't work for me. Paxil is the only thing that makes me feel "normal" and clear-headed. If I don't take it for a couple of days I do start feeling a little light-headed and anxious, so I wouldn't ever quit cold-turkey. I recommend trying a few different medicines if the first ones aren't a perfect fit, everyone is unique, and Paxil works for me."


"Three days after I took my first pill of the first pack, I threw up. when I started my second pack I got EXTREMELY nauseous for the first 3 or 4 days and this continued until I got to my 5th pack, then I no longer had this side affect. it helps really well with periods and reduced it to 3-4 days instead of 6-7 so that's great. overall it's a good pill once I got past the nausea."


"I have endometriosis and this is the only pill that will keep periods from happening when taking continuous active pills."


"I have MDD severe/recurrent, gen anx w/a big social element, ADD & intrusive thoughts. I was about ready to go to an inpatient facility until my doc prescribed Rexulti. While still on the starter pack, I noticed significant improvement.  I also take Effexor&Klonopin. (Ritilan for the ADD) I have mixed feelings about the side effects.  I was super morbidly obese and lost 1/2 of my body weight. The weight-gain, up at 3-3:30 am and severe am dizziness are starting to wear me out. My doc says no more than 6 months but I have gained 7lbs in 3 weeks so I am not sure I want to see how much I will gain over the next 5 1/2 months...but, I was 1st diagnosed at 16, now 44 & I will say this drug is a lifesaver. Discount card program makes it 0.00!"


"I take 10 mg/day. Before I started taking this I felt as though I had severe PMS everyday. I suffer from moderate to severe depression, anxiety, mood swings, anger problems, and OCD. My therapist has diagnosed me with PTSD. Anyway, the first week of taking this I had a lot of side-effects. I took it in the evening, and had insomnia. Waking up a lot at night. Initially, the first week, I also had decreased appetite and chest pain that would come and go. After the first week I began taking it in the morning. The insomnia and all other symptoms subsided, but then I became extremely tired during the day. I'm now taking it in the evening again. Helps A LOT. No more depression or irritability. Only problem now is increased appetite."


"I've been on this birth control for two weeks. My breasts are so sore its ridiculous and I'm very nauseous, but the reason I started this birth control was because I had a very high sex drive and I wanted a birth control that would calm it down. Well this definitely works, a little to well. I don't want it at all anymore. But on the plus side I've been craving fruits and veggies, the thought of any kind of meat grosses me out. Weird right, I like this pill if the nausea would go away and my breasts would stop being so tender!"


"My comments will be in 2 parts. Part 1) I've had fungus on my big toenails for the last 20+ years and have tried everything. In 2012, my primary doctor prescribed generic Lamisil (Terbinafine) which I took for about a month without issue. At refill time, the pharmacy changed to a different Terbinafine provider and told me not to be surprised by the difference in the appearance of the pills. After a week, I developed a rash on my upper body accompanied by fevers & chills. My doctor ordered me to discontinue the Terbinafine pills and the symptoms ended. At the time it wasn't clear if I had simply had an allergic reaction to a new ingredient in the 2nd batch of Terinafine pills. Regardless, I discontinued the pills and my fungus never cleared."


"Well, I see a lot of people saying they get nauseous in the first few days of starting birth control. That's normal. But every time I start a pack or miss by a few hours I'm awful nauseous. I've not got pregnant. So that's good. Ever since I started this pill I've had ovary/ vagina pains. But I'm not sure if it is a ovarian cyst or it's something different or if it just happened not related to the pill. I've got bad anxiety now & cry a lot. I was never like this before. But now I am. This isn't a bad pill though. Works differently for everyone. Plus sides is I used to have cramps to where I would like cry. It would hurt so bad. Now I have about none. And period is lighter."


"I was put on Lexapro for 6 months as a trial after having a major anxiety attack (my first one ever) to see how my anxiety would change. I was prescribed 20mg. Because I have never been on medication in my life and heard these things can be highly addicting I took it upon myself (and with the approval of my Dr) to only take 10MG for the duration of the trial period. I definitely feel it helps with anxiety in the short-term. I gained 40lbs, especially in my belly area and head HORRIBLE heart burn. I also had dizzy spells once in a while. I would not count on any meds for long-term. I recommend change in lifestyle than to suffer from side effects of meds. The good almost doesn't outweight the bad."


"No side effects. Long lasting (about 1 year), and was even effective for filling in my jaw line."


"Diagnosed with RA March 2014.  Disease fast tracked through me and rendered me unable to walk by April 2015.  Have had all oral DMRADs plus Enbrel which made no difference. I was suffering immense pain and could barely leave the house.  Had first Rituximab infusion Sept 2015 second 2 weeks later. Zero side effects. It has taken 10 weeks for me to feel any effect but I am now walking unaided and feel so much better.  I can drive, have a bath and live a normal life again.   I live in Scotland and my drugs are paid for by our NHS.  I have great support from the entire Rheumatology team since being diagnosed."


"I took this three days ago and was up all night. I didn't make the connection as I had a cup of coffee later in the evening than I normally would. I took another Xyzal the following day. I still have not slept. I have been up for 3 nights!!! I have a heavy duty sleeping pill that I am going to take tonight and I'm hoping that will be the end of it. I can't imagine it would take longer than 72 hours to make its way out of my system. If you are someone who experiences these types symptoms with certain medications, avoid Xyzal."


"For me it works well, with some caveats. Take it for too long and it's effectiveness wanes around the 2 week mark. However, when you go back it works in full force again. I also noticed it was not needed EVERY day either, skipping days worked pretty well too... the second day just had a much lesser effect but still there.  Sexual effects? YUP! No ejaculate, reduced drive. All that. This is not a big deal to me. I am 50 and my wife works the opposite shift from me during the week so sex isn't happening anyway. When you stop taking them, 24-30 hrs later your back to normal. So I just typically take them on weekDAYS and deal with poor urine flow on day when sex is a possibility."


"Very good results after 6 months of use. Still using it. No side effects."


"I honestly got to say after reading the reviews on this I was scared because I was in the ER and the doctor gave me two for Constipation. I also suffer with IBS I was not able to go for two weeks . I took senekot and nothing happened.  So I couldn't bare the pain of being constipated . I took the two Bisacodyl he gave me in the emergency room . I took them around 2:30 pm and they kicked in around 7am . I never suffered any problems like the many reviews I read . Yes I had some nausea , I would rather have nausea then the pains I do suffer from IBS . I think the trick to this medication is to take on an empty stomach and drink plenty of water and I mean plenty . I went to the bathroom and I feel like myself again . I would take this again :)"


"Yikes! I don't like taking medication of any kind. I've had a frozen shoulder for 8 months and am ready to gnaw off my own arm from the pain and lack of mobility. My PCP prescribed this for shoulder impingement.

 I took half of a 10 at 8 pm and slept all night. I do have a very dry mouth and feel hung-over this morning. I'd reserve this for bedtime use only."


"Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Arthritis, ileostomy to name a few. 10mg slow release morning and night and 15mg 4 x a day of immediate release also take other meds. My tiredness is caused by my condition, but life has been more bearable. Sadly no cure but I have some relief and can do small things like wee short trips on mobility scooter."


"I took this medication for about 5 days and from the start I knew something was wrong. I remember hallucinating in the dark and the very next day I went manic. I had acid reflux issues and it felt so bad that I had a hard time breathing. I passed out and was taken to the ER. Withdrawal was terrible in fact I'm still going through it. I have had the worst anxiety of my life. My delusional beliefs were at an extreme high and I was so scared that I would break out crying. Every one of my worst thoughts was greatly emphasized on this med. I would have anxiety attacks and feel like I had to puke. I would not recommend this medication, TO ANYONE."


"I had an unpleasant experience. I had only used it for a week and it made big red marks on my face like eczema. And it didn't help with my acne at all."


"I will never take this medication again.  I took it around 9pm and woke up around 1am with some light cramping.  About 15 minutes later, I was doubled over in pain.  I have a pretty high tolerance for pain but the pain was so bad with this laxative that I was on the verge of vomiting/passing out. It did clear me out and I felt fine after and the next day.  But the pain was so bad that it is just not worth it for me to take this again."


"Amazing, after 1 use problem had resolved completely."


"Suffered from cold sores since a young teen.  Not only do I break out from large ones that cover half my lips but I will get them on my cheeks.  Without treatment they will last around 9 days.

I take valtrex at the first signs.  I will take 4 pills and then another 4 12 hours later.  I just had a break out and the bump was already big and itchy took my 4 pills before bed and another 4 when I woke up.  Bumps were gone with no cabbing by day 2!"


"This drug made me so sick with flu symptoms that my doctor agreed to stop it after only three weeks.  My MS symptoms became debilitating and improved soon after stopping the medication."


"I just started this, and then read reviews here. I'm REALLY concerned. One guy said that he has good luck taking Flo Max every other day. If he reads this, do you get the side effects of sexual dysfunction, like every single other guy has mentioned here? I decided to try this and it seems to be working so far.
Has anyone stopped this and had their sexual functioning return to normal?
I wonder if this is just an effect of lowered blood pressure.
Besides, I cannot afford this stuff.
I've done a lot of research on natural alternatives. I'm going to try these, and at least right now am optimistic, as user reviews are very positive."


"Awful drug so dizzy all the time cant walk or shower. Has made my anxiety and panic attacks worse. Agoraphobia is coming back now . Sick gut all the time. Put on it in er for afib. Wish to god id never been put on this evil drug. Xanax no longer work on these either. Beware."


"I'm  33 year old female and was diagnosed with seizures at 31. They came out of no where. Had MRI and a eeg no signs of anything they were normal. With not be able to find what type of seizures they are its hard to find help from anywhere. I tried this medication trileptal and it is a nitemare for me. I started with 2 tablets a day along with keppra that I was already on. They may not work well together. But I've been in trileptal for 1 month now and since the seizures has picked up which I didn't like that at all. I called the doctor which is surpose to be a seizure specialist and she said to up the medication And that's when I noticed they were coming more than they normally do and I noticed up set stomach. No success with it at all!"


"Powerful and fast relief from Panic Attacks. I've had to carefully balance benzodiazepines because the higher the dose, the more likely I'll suffer withdrawal related rebound effects. Right now I'm at .5 mg x 3 as needed. I've been as high as 6mg. Less is more. Still, I've not found anything as effective as an alternative. Xanax just works, and fast."


"I am on 100mg dose. Improves symptoms slightly but still prevalent. I suffer a few side effects such as tiredness."


"This medication helps me kick the habit heroin and calm my hysterics."


"After burn-out tech job my thyroid became underactive.  Began on Armour thyroid 1 grain with positive effects for about 15 years. During that time one Doctor insisted I try the synthetic, levothyroxine, (because she believed the 'spin' from big-pharma about dessicated thyroid). I reacted to levothyroxine with dark void spot in the center of my vision. So, I went back to Armour for years until they changed formula when I began to get hypo symptoms again. So I tried Naturethroid, ugh, I got a severe case of hives. So had to go back to Armour even though it was now suboptimal. Discovered they added titanium dioxide in new formula which I am allergic to and is what Naturethroid has. Trying NP Thyroid now, no titanium, will report results later."


Drospirenone / ethinyl estradiol / levomefolate calcium

"I had a pretty good experience with Safyral while I was on it. It helped regulate my cycle to be much more predictable and on time, and helped with my often severe leg-cramps. I didn't experience any weight gain, and though I was sometimes moody, it wasn't anything outside of normal PMS. It did what it was supposed to do, I suppose.
  However, my problems were when I had to go OFF Safyral. My insurance stopped covering it and at first my OB/GYN didn't have any samples for me, so I had to stop taking it for awhile. This is when I started to gain weight and had some crazy mood swings. I felt kind of depressed at times, cried often at work (which is unlike me), and just felt over-emotional."


"I have been taking this medication for a 5 weeks and it really helps. I would really suggest it to anyone suffering from the same symptoms as I."


"After taking the shots It was amazing, 6 weeks and I was cleared up. I had 75% to 80% coverage. After 3 months I quit. It stated to come back so I started again. I feel better. Went to the beach for the 1st time and pool party in years. I am 49 year old man. As far as side effects we will see. For now I am happy."


"I took acutane for 6 months when I was in high school for chest and back acne. Fast forward, I'm 22 and my chest acne was returning at a quick rate. I had a new pimple almost every day and that left 4 huge red and painful marks on my chest. My friend had tried epiduo but sadly it didn't help her so she let me try it. And in SEVEN days of applying it in the morning and night my chest has completely cleared. I read a lot of reviews that it did not help people, but actually hurt them. My chest suffered no pain but I'm sure chest skin and face skin are very different. I even used it as a spot treatment near my mouth and it cleared up in a couple days. I am so glad I found epiduo because it's helped me so much"


"I have also tried just about everything, both Lunesta and Ambien did nothing at a low dose and at the higher dose caused me to sleep eat. When my physician offered me Belsomra I gave it a shot. This medication did nothing. I didn't feel sleepy I so could have operated heavy machinery. We upped the dose and it still didn't make me sleepy, but it made me mean!  Angry,  for no reason I never felt sedated just mad at the world after 2 weeks I stopped taking it. Totally  disappointed this drug has worked for some but not me. I also had funny dreams which was strange."


"My thyroid was removed in September 1993 due to Papillary Carcinoma.  After removal and treatment, I was put on generic synthroid and could not get my levels regulated.  After a time, I was put on brand name Synthroid and levelled out.  I am unable to take the generic."


"I took Cymbalta for fibromyalgia for about 2 years. I started on 30mg a day and it slowly stopped being effective so I then was boosted to 60mg a day. By the end of the two years I was taking 90mg a day and it was no longer working. I was devastated that it stopped working because when it did work it was great."


"It's been good so far. Doctor put me from 30 to 40 mg. we will see how I feel in about two weeks when I see him again ."


"Horrible. I was put on it right after the birth of my 2nd son for anxiety. It took me 2 years to realize that the Zoloft was the cause of my increased desire to drink (I would drink a bottle of whiskey and think nothing of it, and before Zoloft, that never would have happened), weight gain (over 30 lbs) and overall depersonalized and foggy feeling. I felt like a robot going through the motions. I became very lazy (I am a go-go-go person. Never have I been lazy in my life) and it negatively affected my relationships with my husband and kids. I was just disinterested in everything. I was really unhappy. I never thought it was the Zoloft, I just thought I was a stressed, tired and burned out mom... I've successfully weaned off and will never take it again"


"Started Chantix, set my quit date for 3 weeks later. Week 1 - noticed a reduced craving to smoke, Second week - even less craving. Third week - was hardly smoking at all. Quit date - haven't picked up a smoke since and that was 7 years ago. Have had a few urges since but never enough to make me pick up a pack of cigarettes. Didn't care about the cost, I had to quit and it was easy!"


"I took the 12 week treatment and am fully cured. No side effects could not tell I was on medication. 41 yrs I had it. Thank God it's gone."


"I got this in November of 2008. My doctor said that everyone is different, some people bleed and some don't. I bled for about 4 months off and on. It is now April 2009 and I couldn't even tell you the last time I bled or had a period. I love it. I don't have to think about taking a pill every day. This works for me."


"I LOVE my IUD!  It's so worth the 2 minutes of pain to have 3+ years of not worrying or taking a pill.  Got mine inserted at pp and it was free and they were all very nice and let me lay down for 15 min afterward.  I had been on the pill for a couple years and had not had my period in a while, my first period after the IUD lasted 9 days.  After that I had a couple days of spotting each month and now, about 3 months later, I have no period at all.  I have no skin or mood issues with this IUD, and minimal bloating.  This is so worth it to have no period or worries about pregnancy."


"I have had good results with Reclast, for osteoporosis.  I've had 3 infusions, in three years.  I am scheduled to have my 4th, this May. I have had no fractures during this time.  I have had flu-like side-effects, that lasted 1-3 days, each time I've had my infusions.  However, if you have them infuse the Reclast slower, over 30 minutes vs. 15 minutes, and you get well hydrated before, and stay hydrated well after, it will help.  There is currently a warning letter out in Canada, sent by Novartis, regarding Reclast causing serious Kidney issues, a few leading to kidney failure, dialysis, and even death.  Our FDA has not responded to this.  Make sure you have your Kidney Doctor's blessing, before you take Reclast.  I see mine next week."


"I have been obese my whole life. I have struggled with diets and exercise and eating and starving. I have gone as far as having weight loss surgery. EVERYTHING has only been temporary. My new doctor has recommended Topamax. I currently weigh 282.6. I have started out on 25 in the morning and 25 at night. In 1 month I will go in for my follow up. Has anyone else tried everything else and completely fail? My doctor says it could be my genetic makeup.
But anyway I plan on keeping a record on here of my journey for myself and others to follow. Thank you for your support."


"I am on my 2nd pack on my third month of pills. I have been on the generic brand of seasonique called Ashlyna starting on my 6 months. the first month as soon as I started I thought it was going to be awesome. by the second month I started bleeding and bled like a heavy period for a little over 3 weeks. called my doctor she said that my body just had to get used to it. the third month just fine and the 4th month as well. The fifth month I started spotting here and there but nothing serious.Now I am starting on my 6 month and on  the last pack and I have been spotting since October 6 and just got a heavy period today and I am not due for a period till 3 more weeks. I am going to wait it out and see what happens. good luck everyone."


"I had steadily got worse over a matter of years with sleeping to the point where I had three days with no sleep, even sleeping pills would not knock me out. I was diagnosed with pernicious anemia and things got worse. I now take amitriptyline 50mg before bed and two tablets during the day of Lyrica 25mg each tablet. To begin with it didn't seem to be working and I was so thirsty and extremely tired but that gets totally better after a few weeks. My anxiety has disappeared and my sleeping is 99%/100% better. I would recommend these two tablets without a doubt. They have saved me."


"Very positive about this medication.  No side effects.  Have been on for 9 months and lost 55 lbs so far.  Contrave changed my relationship with food.  I don't have to have snacks, I leave food on the plate, and I stop when I'm full instead of when I'm stuffed.  I have not completely gotten the exercise side of things right yet - perhaps 2-3 times per week when I'd like it to be 5-6.  If I can be more consistent with the exercise I'm convinced the results would be more pronounced, but I'm OK with it taking a while - slow progress is fine by me.  If you are willing to change eating and exercise habits Contrave can be of great assistance - it's like that extra bit of willpower I was lacking all this time."


"I recently got Botox because I could not control my frowning and squinting and forehead wrinkling. I got Botox one month ago and my friends tell me I look like I am 22. I am going to be 28 soon and was not looking to turn back the clock, just wanted to stop the clock. Botox turned back the clock and has slowed it down significantly."


"I have been on Pristiq for 3 months. Before this time, I have been having severe bouts of rage and anger due to PMS. For 2 weeks a month, I was not able to control myself. On this medicine I am under full control! No more screaming or fits of rage. No more shaking from such anxiety. I am on 50 mg. I would highly recommend this medicine. My only side effect is weight gain. I have gained 15 pounds. I'm dieting and exercising to combat this affect. I'm not going off this medicine for that reason. It's the only one that has worked for me."


"I had a very mild case of psoriasis and Taclonex cleared it up within 4 weeks."


"Despite the high cost and the side effects - fantastic. Struggled through teens and then nothing until I hit 40! Suddenly, terrible facial and body acne again. Had to go for private treatment as the UK NHS would not cover the cost but, so worth the cost. Some discomfort, very dry lips, some nose bleeds due to dryness, joint pain in knees and back, hair thin and brittle but no lasting effects at all and would not hesitate to do it again if required. It works. My skin is better now than it has ever been."


"Some emotional ups and downs the first few months, but amazing help for acne."


"Oncologist ordered it for mom's stage 4 lung cancer symptoms. It did an amazing job increasing her appetite which helped her keep weight on."


"I have severe chronic neck pain due to permanent spinal cord nerve damage.  I was given 20mgs twice a day and it didn't give me enough pain relief.  The doctor has increased the dose to 20mgs three times a day and the side effects are too much to handle.  My brain is foggy, I'm more anxious, dizzy, very lightheaded, I have a nagging headache that will not go away and I have an all around ill feeling.  I like the idea of a pain medicine that is timed release and spreads out over time but, this mediciation is not right for me.  I can't wait to get off of the oxycontin."


"Have been on Bydureon for 3 months. It is also the first medicine I've been given for type 2 diabetes.  I was gaining weight, my blood sugar was out of site, and my A1C was sky high.  Since I started using Bydureon, my A1C went from 10 to 7 in 2 weeks.  In 3 months it has gone to 5.6.  I am never hungry. I was a sweet eater but now I can hardly stand sweets.  I have lost 15 pounds in 2 1/2 months."


"I was scared to death of being put to sleep, as I never been put under before, the anesthesiologist explained he was going to administer the drug now, he knew I was nervous so he said take a deep breath, count backwards from 20 to myself or out loud to give everyone something to laugh about, that made me chuckle, I counted 20,19,18 and that's the last thing I remember! It literally felt like seconds and I was opening my eyes in recovery, feeling very relaxed, I was amazed. I am no longer afraid, and I think this is a very wonderful drug, it works extremely fast, and leaves no unpleasant side effects."


"I have been taking Seroquel for a number of years. I have been prescribed numerous other antipsychotics which have had worse side effects than the condition. Love the Seroquel, good nights sleep is the best side effect. Used to get the munchies for chocolate and sweet things. Eat a whole block of chocolate or packet of biscuits. Only take it at night because morning dose makes me a zombie. I don't know if it is addictive but if I miss a dose it makes me all zoned out and crook. I think I will be taking this for the rest of my life but it makes my head clear and stops the hallucinations. I've had some bad life experiences lately and this has stopped me from falling and dealing with what has happened."


"I am diagnosed with severe depression.  Since started taking 25 mg things improved in the first 3 days. I stopped crying and was able to work on my issues communicating with the surrounding in a more positive way.  We upped the dose to 50 mg. The only drawback are vivid dreams that I am having, Night sweats, And I feel extremely sleepy at 10-11 am if I don't get out of the house. I also feel more tired throughout the day. But it doesn't affect my workout routine for example. Of course the drug doesn't solve my problems but it  gave me possibility to calm down and look at things in a better brighter light and enables me to communicate my concerns without agitation, or crying, or screaming or yelling."


"I started taking methylphenidate six years ago, when I was eleven. I started at 20MG a day in the morning, with food. When I started taking it, I was informed about the side effects and I knew one of them was weight loss. When I was 11 I was about 5'6" and 125 pounds. I ended up losing about 20 pounds in the first 3 months of taking methylphenidate. The doctors tested my blood for celiac disease which came back negative. (Turned positive three years later in my stomach.) The doctors came to their conclusion that my weight loss was a side effect of taking methylphenidate. That was the only bad experience taking methylphenidate, I'm still on it, now at 40MG in the morning, with food."


"This medicine worked to relieve my nasal congestion, but gave me severe insomnia.  I stayed up for an entire night.  I also experienced dry mouth. "


"I've found clonidine does help very much with physical symptoms of opiate w/d.But many Dr's dont want to give more than a few pills at the lowest dose. Which wasnt any help at all. Its unfortunate that I ended up failing cuz I couldn't find Dr. to "trust" & understand I could handle a short term prescription- which regrettably led me to a methadone pgrm. Now I know better I know what I'll need once I finish tapering off the meth. Only thing is I don't hear anyone speak about side effects of stopping the clonidine tho. I gave it a 7 because I always get an uptick in my BP & heartrate. Best to be very careful & use for shortest time possible."


"Bactrim gave me an allergic reaction within the first two days of using it. Thankfully I noticed it quickly so it wasn't too bad. My throat felt tight, I had a rash, and I just didn't feel well."


"Ortho Cyclen made me so depressed I wanted to end it.  I started it when I was young, and it was my first pill.  Nobody told me how extreme the side effects can be, and I was on it for years, just thinking I was a horribly depressed person and that life wasn't worth living.  If I wasn't so close with my family I really think I would have put an end to myself.  Turns out they gave me the wrong prescription and had originally intended to give me Tri-Cyclen.  When they switched me over (after YEARS) the depression lifted.  I don't know how much it prevented pregnancy (I would imagine well) because it turns out I'm sterile anyway.  *sigh*  But it ruined my quality of life so badly I wish I could do it all over again. They don't warn us enough."


"I am taking this for a systemic autoimmune disease. 4 injections so far of 40mg once a week, I can move around. It takes a while to start working, but it's working. Doc said if I take this prescribed overload of folic acid I won't lose my hair. It's a chemotherapy. It makes me nauseous. It makes me tired. But so does the disease. Is giving me infections of the skin, mouth, and eyes. Doc says that might just be because my body is one big infection fighting itself all at once."


"I got on this BC to help manage my excruciating menstrual cramps and it did take away that pain. You really don't get much of a period on this pill. I get maybe 3 days of what seems like just light spotting. I don't really know how healthy it is to not get an actual period though. I've been on the pill for 3 months now. The main issues I have with it are weight gain, acne, & vaginal dryness. I'm 25 y/o & I've always been a skinny girl, and before I started this pill I weighed 123 pounds. I've now gained 6 pounds in 3 months, bringing me to 129. I've never seen the scale at 129 before & I never gain weight that fast. I workout 4-5 days a week & eat pretty healthy. Also having more acne than normal. I'll be trying out a new pill."


"I have used this birth control for over 4 years. This birth control is AMAZING. 4 periods a year maximum. Sometimes I would only have 3 or 2. Recently though I found out that any birth control with estrogen is a health concern for women who get migraines that have vision issues, it can lead to stroke. My new insurance provider refuses to provide me any birth control with estrogen it. I started to cry when the doctor sprung this on me. I am so sad about not being on this birth control now. The only side effects that I have had is 1. I don't lubricate well when trying to have sex, so lubricant is a must. 2. Loss of sex drive."


"I have been on Biacna (Canadian Ziana) for about a month now. For the first couple weeks my skin flared up like crazy and my face was peeling. Now I am finally starting to see my acne, which varied from cysts to moderate, disappear. I am hoping once my face becomes completely clear to see my acne marks fade. IMPORTANT: do not use any astringents or lemon/citrus or benzyl peroxide or tea tree oil while on this because it counteracts the chemicals in Biacna. GOOD LUCK and keep going xx"


"Sober for 13 months now. This miracle completely removes alcohol from your life. After a couple of months the cravings begin to abate. It's not an option, so sooner or later you just stop thinking about it.  "


"Miracle drug."


"I'm a 56 year old female. I started on Forteo March 2016 with 3 vertebral fractures. My t-score was -5.6. According to my Endocrinologist I have had a 40 percent improvement in 12 months. My scan in March 2017 showed t-score -4.0. I have also been taking vitamin D3, hormone patches for menopause but most interestingly also vitamin K2 (one tablet a day since starting Forteo) I urge everyone to talk to their doctor and also google the research done on K2. In my opinion maybe Forteo and K2 work well in conjunction with each other. My Endocrinologist said that if my gains were that significant in the next 12 months I will be in the osteopenia range. If I could I would like to stay on Forteo for 3 years but not sure about government regulations"


"I have psoriasis only on both of my palms. I used Psoriasin gel for the first time last night...saw  and felt immediate relief. I can only imagine what a day or monitored continuous use will bring!

Thank you PSORIASIN!"


"I have been on many mood stabilizers over the yrs for bi-polar 1. I have stuck with Lamictal because it hasn't caused distressing side effects that are difficult to live with, such as tremors and restlessness."


"This is the first pill I've tried as my doctor recommended it as being the safest. My experience was so terrible that I had to discontinue Alesse after day 6. I got bad chest pains, racing heart, anxiety and GERD. The sharp chest pain in particular freaked me out the most as the medication carried black box warning for DVT and pulmonary embolism. Please be very cautious before trying any hormonal birth control, I know stats say that the chances to get clots are small, but I feel that reality is different. Threw the rest of the box in garbage where it belongs and would never recommend it to anyone. This piece of trash could seriously sabotage your health, please be cautious."


"In the sea of negative reviews which I read before starting Paxil, I saw few positive ones even though I know that there are many, many people for whom this drug has worked wonders.  I am one of those people.  Diagnosed with severe depression and generalized anxiety disorder, my doctor started me on 10mg/day and despite minor, minor nausea for the initial 2 weeks, I have not had side effects.  My anxiety and depression were vastly improved within that 2-4 week window and I began to feel like my old self.  I have experienced no discernible effects on my sex drive,  which is a big negative side effect for many reviewers.  This drug seems to have been tailor-made for me, I am thankful for its availability, and hope this review helps someone!"


"I really loved this birth control. I had no side effects, it reduced the heaviness of my period, I had little to no period cramps while on it and it worked well as a contraceptive. Unfortunately it was really expensive even with my insurance so I had to switch."


"Propafenone has been very effective in reducing incidents of tachycardia, though of late I've had an increasing number of breakthrough events (perhaps once a week), especially after going to bed.  My heart rate reaches 120-130 bpm.  I usually return to sinus rhythm following carotid massage.  If necessary, I take a small dose of metroprolol, which works within 15 minutes.  I find it necessary to drink alcohol, coffee, and chocolate in moderation.  Before an ablation procedure, my main problem was periodic atrial fib."


"Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex the second day of my period. 20 to 24 hours later I took Plan B. I had nausea select days over a week or two then everything seemed back to normal. Two days after I had unprotected sex my period stopped. Plan B works three different ways one of them being telling your body not to ovulate. Well 11 days after my period stopped I was due to ovulate. Plan B more than likely told my body not to ovulate at that time because my period was 9 days late. I'm also overweight by a couple pounds to where Plan B effectiveness starts to fade. I think because I was ovulating close to when I took Plan B it told my body to wait to ovulate. Today I got my period. Thank goodness!!"


"ever since I can remember my eyes have always itched and every day I would rub/knuckle my eyes and I did some research to find out that rubbing your eyes everyday can result in permanent vision loss so I went to the clinic and was prescribed patanol and it has worked wonders. I am very grateful for modern medicine. A lot of people are paying an arm and a leg but I'm in the military and Uncle Sam takes car of me."


"My 7 year old son has had these severe headaches, now believed to be migraines, since he was 3.  With time the headaches have become almost daily.

  One month to the day.  My son has had only 1 headache!!

  He has gained weight though, which for him was ok because he was so so skinny."


"Hey all. I began this birth control around November. Insertion was awful; I threw up and passed out. It depends on the person though! I'm not a huge fan of this birth control. It made intercourse painful in certain positions. It did increase my sex drive a lot though. My skin is now a disaster, I'm pretty sad about that. I'm excessively tired all the time. I've gained 30 pounds out of the blue. I dunno guys, this birth control just wasn't for me and I'm switching back to the pill."


"My doctor gave me 500 mg of Metronidazole which was about  four pills to take as a single dose. I went to the doctor after finding out my guy has been having unprotected sex with another woman as well as myself. I think maybe it threw off my Ph balance. I also had a UTI but so far it seems like it worked.  I won't know for sure for two weeks when I go back for my other STD test results. I hope it is gone but I didn't experience any side effects."


"I started out originally on Lo Loestrin FE and switched to Blisovi FE because the first one worked for me for the first few months but then my period became irregular. I put on 15-20 lbs almost right away and I thought it was what I was eating but I hadn't changed my diet at all. Glad to know I am not the only one that this happened to. The irregularity of my period has improved but I am now getting 2 a month which is not okay. Would not recommend and I'm switching ASAP."


"I have found Uloric (80mg) to be slightly less effective in controlling my gout symptoms than Allopurinol (300mg) and it is more expensive but it is good to have it as another alternative."


"Had heart transplant 8 years ago an have been on cellcept & prograf . 500mg cellcept & 1mg program a day and feeling excellent with no side effects .
"


"I'm probably the only one I know taking this for inflammation from a frozen shoulder as I have had serious side effects from steriod shots, so its a viable alternative.  It's not bad, it is working slowly but definitely have to take it with food.  I'm taking 750 twice a day but started breaking them in half which is not easy but overall not a bad drug, for what it is intended for I've heard great things, not just from this site."


"I was prescribe Flomax due to kidney stones.
Other than the pain I felt fine, then started taking this drug, long story short I hate it.
I took it for about a week , I suppose it might have helped remove the stone but I felt like crap
Insomnia ,weakness, coughing, hiccuping constantly. Loss of appetite, foods just didn't appeal at all ,muscle pain, diarrhea,
Thurs was my last pain, today is Monday i stopped taking them last Saturday I could not take another one.
How anyone can be on these for weeks and months is beyond me"


"Controls my allergies better than anything I have taken."


"I was prescribed dexilant for a possible ulcer which caused nausea. It may have helped the nausea a little but not much.  After taking it for a few months, I got severe diarrhea and cramping.  I was not able to leave my apartment or go to work - the diarrhea was uncontrollable.  I have never had diarrhea this bad before.  I realized it was probably dexilant causing the diarrhea and cramping today after searching on the Internet for side effects.  I doubt it is anything other than the dexilant.  Hopefully the diarrhea and cramping will subside fairly quickly."


"I've been on Latuda going on two months now and it's just not working. I'm still depressed crying all the time, and have even been violent towards my boyfriend. Also very angry. The side effects are very bad for me since I don't have an appetite. But I was dealing with it. I tried and nothing. Desperately have to try something else."


"I have used maxalt four times in the last three months. The first time it worked fine and it was gone in a few hours but had heart racing.

The second migraine I was concerned about the side effects but gave a second chance. I had severe throbbing in my head like it was going to explode and then suddenly the migraine broke.

My third attempt my migraine was so severe that I had to take a second dose for relief! I find that if I take it on the onset it works but still light headache and felt numbing sensation.

My fourth today no relief after 2nd dose. Took 3rd after 4 hours but still feeling migraine. Had slight heart racing and throbbing pain.  I may continue to see if this is right meds. If not, then I think there's no hope for me!"


"This birth control is the worst kind I've ever taken in my life. I thought I had a bad experience with seasonique solely because of the weight gain but microgestin fe was 100x worst. The first month I was totally fine then after a while I started getting really emotional. I cried at the most absurd things and I'm not usually a crier. It made me so irritable and cranky with my family, my boyfriend, and even his family. Not to mention it caused me to get a yeast infection which I never had before and haven't had since I got off the pill. And the WORST part it made me go from someone with an extremely high libido to someone that cringed at sex. Getting of it was the best decision I've made"


"This pill works! Trust it. I took it 34 hours after a condom slip. I experienced tiredness, BLOATING and minor abdominal discomfort, not so much as pain. I started spotting then it completely stopped for two days but nonetheless my period came! three days earlier then I expected and a lot heavier then normal but it came! Trust this pill it is a miracle worker. Take the pill between the 72 hour time frame, relax and hope for the best!  55 dollars is nothing compared to the cost of getting pregnant! Best of luck ladies!"


"I have been on Xulane for about 7 months now and I absolutely love it! At first, yes, it is horrible while the body is adjusting to it. There are constant headaches and what look like signs of early pregnancy, but after a while it works perfect! It's worth the beginning experience. I have noticed that my breasts grew rounder and fuller, no acne, no vaginal dryness, predictable periods, light periods, low cramping and best of all, no unplanned children!"


"I asked my pulmonary doctor if I could try Symbicort.  She have me a 2 week sample and almost immedately I started wheezing and I saw no improvement and went back to my previous medication."


"Do to severe bone loss, a fracture in my spine & scoliosis my doctor prescribed Forteo. I seemed fine in the first five months but I began to experience unbearable back pain. I could not lie down in bed at night. This went on for a few weeks. The doctor asked me to stop the Forteo. Four day later the pain subsided. My doctors said the medication was not right for me. I have not had a bone density test yet."


"T used the paint on nail liquid for 18 months with no effect. I was changed onto terbinafine by the doctor, 3 weeks after taking it I have had no difference, have nausea every day and have completely lost all sense of taste. Good side is I'm losing the excess half a stone, but I am starving."


"I went on Doryx almost 3 months ago because I had severe cystic acne. It was awful, I was mortified to the point where I would even call out of work. Not only was it embarrassing, but at times it was also painful. My dermatologist put me on Doryx and I noticed NO change until about the 6 week mark. By the 8 week mark my cysts were gone! It took time, but I am SO glad I stuck with it. I have had people tell me how much better my skin looks. It is not 100% clear as it had been a year ago, but I am very pleased with it so far. The doctor told me it takes up to 6 months to get the full effect. So be patient. In addition to the pill I also wash my face once a day with Neutrogena Red Reducer (Green), Proactive and I use Clinique Acne foundation."


"The drug works well. The problem is trying to get off it or if you run out of pills. Numerous blogs are dedicated to the horror stories of detoxing from this Med! Be very careful and do your research before you start taking this drug!!!"


"My doctor prescribed Sprintec to me because of cramps (like the type that make you throw up, wake you up in the middle of night, etc...). In terms of keeping my period away, Sprintec worked great! When I first started taking it, I kind of lost my appetite, and my acne disappeared.
However! Before I started taking birth control, I had no mental health problems, the only time I felt sad was due to a bad grade or drama with friends. These days, I have severe depression, and have felt suicidal! If you have ANY sort of depression, no matter how severe, or if mental illness runs in your family, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!!!! It will only make your life miserable."


"Grecia--
I hope you'll find this message, even though it's been many years since you posted. My daughter also started Lupron PED at 2 years old. She's now 4. It has reversed her chest development and her growth is more on track now. But I'm just finding out about all these bad side affects. I haven't heard of anyone else starting the medicine so early like her, so I was wondering if your daughter ever had/has any bad side affects from using it. My daughter has the 11.25mg injection every 3 months.

Our insurance just changed how the bill it so now it's going to be over $4k!!! Help!!!"


"This was given to me for a migraine.  Horrible horrible HORRIBLE!!!! feel like you are going to die, increased heart rate, shallow breathing, the need to get up and run, agitated, crying, sweating, had a FULL BLOWN panic attack........THE WORST MEDICINE EVER!!!!"


"I have been taking Zyrtec about 3 months now..and one side effect that i have not seen is i sound like i have laryngitis all the time.  My throat is too dry and scratchy.  Other than that it works great..no itchey eyes, sneezing and such!!!"


"Very interesting drug. I was prescribed Zolpidem by my psychiatrist but found that it did not work (later determined because of other psychological problems) however I still took it every night. I found that I started doing things I would never do normally. I went for walks at 3:00 am, fully cognitive, came home put my shoes away, hung up my clothes, and watched TV for a few hours. I felt perfectly normal, but my wife started questioning me about what I was saying to her (never violent). She said that my conversations always made sense, but they were so out of the blue. Sometimes I remembered them, sometimes I didn't. If this drug does not work immediately, don't take it."


"I'm 27, I was diagnosed with PCOS late 2013 my OB doctor requested to have a vaginal ultrasound to figure out what is going on because no menstration at 3months and negative pregnancy test then she found out that I having a PCOS the doctor prescribed me a pills but I used to it at least 2 months but because I was gaining weight then I'll stopped it. After 2 years, me and my soon to be husband plan to have a baby, I'll go to google to search  what is best medicine to  PCOS the google  answered METFORMIN that time I have no menstration for 3months so I decided to take the metformin at first I take 500mg once a day for 1week, then after 2weeks 1000mg twice a day. I took this medicine almost 10 months from March 2016 to Jan 2017.. and now, I'm pregnant!!"


"I take 10mg Lisinopril & it reduce my bp to the normal -pre hyper range. My doc decided to give me a water pill. Now I have a history of drugs working the opposite on me. For instance, he put me on a Beta Blocker to help my BP & warned it would lower my normal heart rate. In 2 days it increased my heart rate enough to put me in the hospital (where they kept giving it to me). It also caused me to have heart pains. I'm weaned from it but may have the heart pains for up to a year as a side effect. I've taken this water pill at 2 separate occasions & it doesn't do anything but increase my lower bp number. I don't retain water & my output does not increase. No more. Lisinopril, diet & exercise is all I need to control my bp. No additional pills."


"One dose did the trick for me ... only 100mg."


"I got this as a recommendation from my OB/GYN after getting a culture tested and I was told I had a YI.

Directly after inserting my very first tube, my vagina is on FIRE. I showered as I thought the warm water might ease the pain, NOPE. I was literally shaking for an hour and a half because I was in such bad pain.

"


"I have been on Lo Loestrin Fe for 2 years. Prior to taking this pill I suffered from horrible periods that would last up to 2 weeks, go away for a week, then return. They were incredibly heavy with severe clotting. After trying numerous other birth control pills, Lo Loestrin was the only one that stopped the bleeding altogether. For the first time in my life I have no bleeding other than occasional spotting every couple of months. I also lost 10 pounds going from 128 to 118. All of that has been extremely positive except it gave me horrible acne which I have never had, ever. I now use a Retin-A which helps but I still have very large pores where before I had beautiful porcelain skin. My hair has also thinned dramatically. "


"My experience on Zarah was absolutely HORRIBLE. At first things were good. I never carried water weight and my periods lightened up. All of a sudden in these last couple months, my body has been going haywire on it. Everybody swears I could be pregnant, but I'm not. I have gained 20 lbs eventhough I watch my diet and stay active, my acne has not cleared up, I spot 2-3 times a week, crave spicy foods a lot, sweets make me nauseous, I stay with headaches and constant mood swings. My obgyn switched me back to Safyral because I was never bloated, and in fact lost all my excess weight. The only side effect I had was that my periods were a bit heavy the first 2 days. So my obgyn tried me on Zarah. Would much rather deal with heavy periods."


"Do NOT take Aftera. All these people saying it worked is only saying it cause they were gonna get on their periods anyway. "Period came as scheduled".. a day after pill, your period should come 2 to 3 days after taking the pill with lots of cramping. First time I took it, I got pregnant. 2nd time, NO CRAMPING STILL=NOT WORKING. Spend a little more for Plan B."


"I had severe anxiety and agoraphobia. Every time I would get in a car I would wonder if I was going to die that day. These symptoms all started when I had children. I started to wonder what would happen to my children if something happened to me. And I thought about how attached they are to me and how it would break their hearts. So I told my doctor about it. She prescribed Celexa. I've been on it for about 2 months now and the quality of my life has changed so drastically. I'm not always thinking about dying. I'm able to go out in crowds and not be worried. Yesterday I was dealing with something stressful and I was stressed about it, but I stayed calm and I moved on. It didn't consume me like stressful events used to do."


"I have had major stomach issues all of my life and nothing would help me get rid of my chronic constipation except dulcolax and mirolax so when I read some of these reviews I was very confused! Ive never had any problems with dulcolax except that it takes around 15-18 hours to work for me. I take two pills when I feel like I really need a BM and one if I start feeling a little constipated. Ive never had cramping, diarrhea, vomiting, or any other  over dose symptoms. The only laxative I believe to be better is mirolax but you have to have it everyday for it to work."


"I believe the ladies who said they felt better after using this must work for the company and they are lying.
I'm 38 and this is my 1st time using this and I'm on fire.  I thought the 7 day would be better because I've used 3 and 1 day before...all made me absolutely miserable.  Whyyyyyy is it so awful.  I want to use the remaining applicators to flush my vagina with water.  It's taking all my might to write you ladies but I needed to warn the next victim.  Honestly its worth just waiting the next day to go to the clinic and get diflucan."


"It's a great medicine to have especially when you get migraines and sick after a procedure (scope down the throat). Didn't feel much pain after at all."


"Outstanding results after the fourth day using Uceris.  Has none of the typical prednisone major side effects. Works in the lower colon.  I used it for 8 weeks. Held the Ulcerative Colitis in remission for an additional 5 months."


"52 yr old struggled physically for 30 years, fibromyalgia, CFS, widespread joint and muscle pain.
Depressed due to daily pain and effort to do anything.
Took 500mg Naproxen and the pain, stiffness and burning has virtually gone, it took about 45 minutes to work, I feel like somebody else, woke up this morning having had a good nights sleep still feeling much better, I can't actually believe it. Ibuprofen, paracetamol didn't touch it, Zapain helps but worsens fatigue.
I was prescribed Naproxen 6 months ago 250 mg twice a day, didn't do a lot and I over read and over thought the side effects so didn't bother. I'm trying 500 mg once a day for a few days then I'll try splitting the dose. I've had no side effects on either 500mg so far, I just feel great."


"I have had the IUD Mirena for 3 years, overall it has served me well. I don't have to think about it daily at a certain time (like the pill) however, I do miss Microgestion Fe 1/20. ..
I have my second IUD because the first came out within the first month because they did not give me the pill that expands the cervix beforehand (like they did the second time). I have never had a child so at first my cervix was too small.It hurts very badly for a month but afterward it's nice to not worry about it for years. (Although they say to have it looked at every year)"


"I have suffered with anxiety since my early 20's. I'm now 27. After the loss of my father it threw me into a depression that I couldn't seem to get out of. I started Celexa 20 mg about 2 weeks ago, the first two days I could tell I was on medicine, I was a little slow, however the 3rd day I felt like a brand new person. I have no depression, anxiety, mood swings. I feel as if everything that I thought consumed my life was over. I had a new approach to dealing with everyday life. I think Celexa saved me. I did lose my appetite but I wanted to lose a few pounds anyways. So another good thing about it and I have occasional dry mouth HOWEVER I feel great. So I'll take it. I recommend this medicine to anyone."


"Omg never again. Had bad constipation took two of these had bad cramps really bad diarrhea for 14 hours. Had to take day of work. I'm never sick like this terrible experience  don't try it unless u really need to. I was on toilet every 5 ten minutes. Had two hours sleep. Slept in bathroom in the end."


"Like other reviewers, I have used this treatment before without a problem. But today, OMG! Within 15 minutes, itching so intense and awful, I had to get off the train to work, pay for a taxi home, and now I'll have to use a sick day.  I thought maybe this reaction was due to using the 1-day treatment, but seems many others are having similar reactions from the 3 and 7 day treatments. I'll get an Rx for Diflucan next time!"


"I took Chantix for 25 days and stopped smoking once all the meds were gone. I started smoking when I was 14 years old. I am now 62. I started the Chantix last year and was hopeful it would work and it did! I tried many things throughout the years and was never successful. Today I am 14 months smoke free! My doctor was so against prescribing this and wanted me to try other things that I had already tried. Unfortunately she left her group practice before I could tell her how Chantix worked for me. I am so happy about my success and hope that others will try Chantix too. The only side effect that I had was unusual dreams about once per week. But it was worth it to stop 1 and 1/2 packs of cigarettes per day."


"I am 22 years old and I took Provera for 10 days twice a day starting March 7th. 10 mg.  It worked for me. About 5 days after I ended the Provera , (3.22.11), my period showed up. I am trying to conceive with my fiance but first I need my period under control. I hope this all works out. So far so good. "


"I am getting the Nexplanon removed tomorrow and I can not wait!! I started the birth control in October of 2015 and the first 6 months was completely fine. This past year or so has been horrible!! I have been on my period for the past few months on and off. I have no idea when it is going to come or go.  As if that's not bad enough, I have been depressed/ very irritated. I cry every day about the tiniest things that make me upset. Before I started this birth control I was not an emotional person at all. Now I cry ALL THE TIME. It makes me feel like I'm truly depressed but I don't have anything to be sad about. I have zero sex drive as well because I am always so tired and just not in the mood. Can't wait to get rid of this thing!!"


"I have had an overall great experience with this iud. I actually had one placed ten years ago and just recently had it replaced. This has been a very effective birth control. I can't have added hormones so it was either this or condoms ten years ago and I'm glad I chose this."


"I have to say that this has been a great drug that has done so many good things for my Granddaughter that I have adopted. She is 7 years old with ADHD.  She was so unhappy and would even tell me that she knew something wasn't right and wanted to be a good kid like the ones in her class room. She was in tears and asking for help. This is the first drug for her ADHD and it has worked great! Some side effect not eating and not sleeping good at night.

But over all this drug has work great so far."


"I've always had mild asthma, but about 6 months ago, it got really bad and I was using my Ventolin like every 2 hours. Especially at night, I'd wake up almost every hour and need to have a puff of Ventolin. It was bad, I know, but I kept putting up with it. But last time I went to the doctor, I mentioned how bad it had got and she put me on another asthma medication called Symbicort. It's saved my life, makes it SO much more easy to manage. Now I never use Ventolin at all and I only have two puffs of this Symbicort at night... it's amazing. It's made my life so much easier."


"Like some other reviews of this product

I took Ramipril and experienced the following side effects

Mouth so dry that it was difficult to swallow

Headache

Stomach ache

Strange looking eyes, just felt very odd

Shaky

Tingly tongue

Short of breath

Acidic

Hot but clammy

Fidgety, restless, couldn't sleep

Could feel and hear when resting, my heart beating really fast

Awful feeling, stopped taking and have now been given Amlodipine which I will take today for the first time"


"The first few months were fine. No serious side effects.  Obviously I did not get pregnant, so it was effective in that way. The side effects after maybe 6 months or so were terrible. Bleeding for 2 1/2+ weeks out of the month, weight gain (about 30 pounds,) irritable. I dealed with it because I had the mindset, "it's better this than getting pregnant so early." After about a year and three months, I'm bleeding for 3 weeks out of the month. I'm switching to Loestrin 1/20. More estrogen for me."


"I am super sensitive to most birth control, but this pill is perfect. I have been on this pill for a year, and I will continue. I still experience some PMS (a few acne spots on my jawline and I'm extra moody/ hungry), but I haven't had a period the entire time. No weight gain either!"


"I took 1 30mg and it has made me so sick. I've been having flu like symptoms and my anxiety is through the roof. I couldn't sleep last night and this was just taking 1. I normally take Valium 20mg a day and Ativan 1mg and I'm ok but lately with all meds I think my body after so many years is used to the benzodiazepines they aren't working as well. I'm still having panic attacks that are disabling. I need help. Every SSRI or SNRI  doesn't not work at all. I took from my teens until I was 22 ecstasy everyday and when I stopped is when the anxiety started and has never left even though I've been quit for 11 years. I don't want to be on medications any more I just want to live life that's all :( this medicine ruined an entire day for me."


"This medication is very effective in relieving post traumatic stress disorder but has side effects like high blood sugar, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, lack of bladder control. "


"Terrible experience on vraylar, upset stomach, insomnia, felt like the flu upon stopping, would not take again.  Glad I stopped after 5 days easier to detox.   Had almost the same experience on saphris , which caused hairloss as well and rough detoxing."


"Hi , 18 yr old Irish male , started getting mild cramps 1 month ago with no other symptoms , over a while the cramps worsened and so visited the doctor whom suggested I take Colofac as she thought I had IBS. This was of a Monday about 1.5 weeks ago. I took the medication until the Saturday when that night I noticed bloody , diarrhea like stools along with ,which was now severe , cramping.  I decided to head to hospital where I got a colonoscopy (unsedated) and subsequently diagnosed with Colitis (my Father also suffers). The diagnosis occurred yesterday and I am due Prednisone 4 times daily of which, in total, I have been given it 3 times. So far, so good, but, not quite 100% .No real side affects yet on my part. How long before full recovery?"


"I had Implanon put in nearly two months ago; was period free for two weeks then have been bleeding ever since. I was told to expect unpredictable and irregular bleeding but it's been the opposite; just constant and annoying. My sex drive is fine but as a single person it makes it rather difficult to meet people when you're literally bleeding all the time! Went back to the doctors who has prescribed me Levelin on top to level out the bleeding, which sort of defeated the purpose of getting the Implanon in the first place so I wouldn't have to take the pill. The reason I've given it 3 stars is that despite the cost for pads, tampons and additional medications it's far less than that of having a baby, which it has been effective in preventing!"


"Have been off this med for over 6 weeks and still having side effects, diarrhea, headache,dizzy spells, muscle aches and sleeplessness. Will NEVER take this medicine again !!!"


"I am 22 years old, I have been struggling with weight for years. I am 5"8, I do not appear obese but my weight says otherwise. My doctor finally tried me on saxenda, after I had been crying in his office every month I got weighed ( always gaining another pound or 3). I started saxenda 1 week ago today. And I am down 11lbs. I have no appetite what so ever. I started doing slim fast shakes, seeing how I wasn't hungry. I have little to none side effects except a little fatigue and dry mouth. I cannot wait to see what the next few weeks bring me. I recommended this 100%!!"


"My periods are shorter and I'm regular. My face is clear and I haven't suffered from any weight gain, although I do have some PMS mood swings sometimes but I've been on this pill for almost two years and its definitely helped this 22yr old."


"One month into Accutane and I'm all clear! Cant thank my dermatologist enough. My life is so much better!"


"I am a 35 yr. old mom of 2. My Dr. put me on this to help with severe period cramps and possible endometriosis diagnosis. I've only been on birth control prior to my kids (husband is fixed now) who are now 9 and 11. Been on this for one month and I've gained 6 lbs! Mind you, I am normally very active (I teach cycle class 5 days a week) and eat healthy, but this the weight gain is crazy! Also, I have had weird tingling feelings, and have been supper unmotivated to do anything! I though I had a weird flu, because I could not figure out where all my energy went?! Stopping immediately, hopefully I'll find better relief with another pill. Thanks for all the reviews! I know everyone reacts differently but it's comforting to know I'm not alone."


"I was on Ativan (Lorazepam) for awhile but found it highly addicting. I switched to Xanax (alprazolam) and it's fast acting and settles your anxiousness, sense of panic, and has a calming effect. I take them as needed. But if I have had a long stretch of taking them, it's not difficult to lower the dose and take them as needed. Your body doesn't go into absolute fits or seizures (as Ativan does). I'll take this forever. It's helped me live more normally."


"I have been on this birth control for years. Originally I started on it for my heavy periods to make them more normal and it did its job, never got pregnant. I thought all was good. Up until about 2 almost 3 Weeks ago I've been off it and I have to say I feel like a whole new person, a happy person that's not sensitive to everything or an emotional wreck and depressed that I've felt for years. I caution this is a good birth control but it does mess with you're emotions and way of thinking for the worst."


"I am 72 it has worked great for me, still taking it no side effects! would hate to taken off it."


"Campral worked as prescribed for me, it gives me relief from the cravings, I didn't feel it was working until I realised that for the first time in years I had reached two weeks with out a drink, the habitual side of drinking is powerful and every time I was triggered it felt on par with a craving. My advice, keep with the Campral even if you feel its not working, give it time, let it do its thing, it will alleviate the cravings which will give you some breathing space to work on the habit itself, my synopsis, Campral will help with half the battle the rest needs counselling, will power and time. Side effects minimal for me, Campral is an excellent tool to stay on the road to recovery, one in my opinion not recommended enough."


"very effective for fatigue related to multiple sclerosis"


"Same as Ne-Con. Took a couple weeks to adjust, but same results! Great stuff"


"I've been on trazodone for three weeks.  I also take Klonopin 2 milligrams and 1 x 100 mg of trazodone.  It does help with sleep no doubt.  I'm a sufferer for over 16 years so this definitely works.  It stops the thinking, the worrying, and eventually it knocks you out.  The problem I have is that I feel so lethargic.  I'm tired after sleeping seven plus hours after consumption.  My eyes are red and hard to open. I want to sleep and this does the trick.  However, I hate feeling tired all day.  I gave it an eight because in terms of sleep and anxiety it does the job.  But the side effect of feeling tired all day is unbearable. "


"I experienced relief within a few hours following application of the medication. It is itchy at first (a yeast infection is also quite itchy), but it helps to focus on something else and gentle wipes with aloe help immensely following application. I used the medication this afternoon, and it is now evening and I feel 100% normal. I used the highest dosage and did not experience any burning or other adverse side effects."


"I dont know what I am doing wrong, but it is not working for me. I am gaining weight. It has not decreased my appetite at all."


"I've taken Lyza for a few months now and sometimes I forget to take it or miss a few days but it still works pretty well. My periods have been getting shorter each time month and I have not experienced weight gain. But then again I exercise and eat fairly healthy on a daily, but I do get headaches and I'm pretty sure it's not from the pills it's more from me not wearing glasses and I have terrible vision! But it seems to be working for me."


"My main reason for using this type of birth control was solely for pregnancy prevention. I've never had any problems with my periods or acne. I've experienced the worst of side effects possible. I'm constantly moody and sad, I have heavy long-term periods, face covered in acne, low sex drive, hair loss, spots on my skin, sensitivity to most soaps and lotions. I'm overall dissapointed with this pill and can't wait to start a new type of contraceptive. Granted I haven't gotten pregnant, but we use condoms so it's hard to judge anyways."


"I have been taking this for 3 yrs now mainly for the Fibro, but also due to the depression and neuropathy that I suffer from The Rhabdomyolisis due to Pravachol use.  The depression is way under control, and the nerve pain also  better. I still get muscle cramping and joint pain daily.  Works great for me and now my insurance company wants to substitute it!  "


"Started taking Dailresp 3 mths ago. Noticed improvement in breathing in 1st week. Then started having nausea and loss of appetite. I also started having other reactions,insomnia, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, bad thoughts about death. Over the last 2 mths it's gotten worse. I didn't know it could be the Dailresp. This morning I woke up at 1am couldn't go back to sleep because of thoughts of dying. It's 2pm I'm still awake(I can't sleep during the day). Got so bad I went to the ER today. The Doctor told me to stop the Dailresp. OK!  I never had mental health issues before. I don't have any clue how long it will take to recover from the mental health issues I'm having."


"So far, so good.  I have earlier morning wake up, probably related to a mood disorder.  Unlike the addictive medicines that cause worsening of depression, so far Silenor, that has its roots as an antidepressant, allows me to get a little more shut eye without worsening of my depression symptoms."


"For almost three years I dealt with major depression and anxiety. After my separation, my life fell apart and I couldn't control my emotions. I was dealing with depression, anxiety and rage. I am very anti medication but knew I needed help. I completely broke down and sought help. I was prescribed Zoloft for the first time in my life and felt that I went crazy. My anxiety kicked in overtime and I lost my job. I will never be able to explain how bad it was but I tried to just survive for another year thinking nothing would help. Three months ago I went back to my doctor's office and was prescribed 20mg of Lexapro. I told her I was terrified but would try anything at this point. It took two months to feel like a human again. It saved me."


"Caused stomach cramping and lots of gas to the point where I couldn't lay down or fall asleep without having to get up to burp or pass gas. I also felt really anxious when drinking this medicine."


"Saving life is most important.  However, so is quality of life. My husband of 30 years, the most stable, peaceful, fun, loving person I had ever met, completely disappeared with this drug. Physical side effects are horrible, but the potential psychological and emotional impact of this treatment can be even worse. And, it is not at all addressed by the medical community. He's gone for support, he's gone for counselling, but nothing seems to get through. The fact that he's alive apparently is not enough. SO, after dealing with this for so many years, I would strongly suggest that couples fully deal with this together. Your husband/or partner will become a completely different human being on this drug - and the impact is not reversible."


"Worst experience ever!!! I had almost everyone's HORRIBLE side effects . Do not use this. I was given through an infusion with 50 mg benadryl and toradol. Never again!!!!"


"loss of vision"


"I've had this birth control for eight months   and I've been heavily menstruating every day since I've had it. Two weeks after getting it put in, I started bleeding and never stopped; with the exception of a month that I took birth control pills. I also have no energy, have developed anemia and my sex drive got so low that I actually developed an aversion to sex. This birth control was the worst decision I've ever made. It was my first time trying any type of birth control and it was not worth it. I haven't been intimate with my husband in several months."


"Lost 17 pounds in 3 weeks with no exercise mild nausea but overall a great experience"


"I got mine put in February 2015 and I couldn't be happier (and im only 18). I struggled daily to remember to take the pills and I just finally said I needed something different. I talked to my doctor about nexplanon and she suggested that it would be a great idea. Im only using for my period because they would be so heavy, painfuk, and make me practically bedridden the whole time but since the nexplanon I have no complaints. I love it and I would definitely recommend it. The best part is you don't have to try to remember to take something everyday, you just go about your day."


"I was on this for the first time last fall when I had H. Pylori. It knocked it out but threw me into my first vaginal yeast infection. The metallic taste in the mouth is horrible and my husband could even taste it when he kissed me. Currently I am on it for sinusitis which I have seasonal."


"My spouse has been on Epivir-HBV for 17 years now. We have a 12 year old who was conceived during the time my spouse was taking Epivir HBV. So far everything is well, we are living a normal life after transplantation & taking this medication."


"I tried this yesterday night and went straight to bed. Woke up with some cramps and a lot of leftover discharge. But I don't feel nasty anymore and I don't have odor. It was nice meeting with you monistat1. My YI is damn near gone in a day."


"I am a college student who was having the hardest time concentrating while reading and writing. While reading my thoughts would take me away from the material in a matter of seconds, and while writing I would usually forget the end of the sentence of which I was writing before I got to it. After taking this medicine, 150mg once a day, for a couple months, I began experiencing a marked difference. I was finally able to be absorbed in my reading and could hold my thoughts while writing in a way I had never done before. However, recently I feel like the effects are wearing off. I am beginning again to not be able to pay attention while reading and writing. Perhaps moving up to 300mg will sustain the effects."


"I have been taking Lexapro for about 2 months now and I notice an immediate change. I suffered from bad anxiety attacks where I would have them two or three times a night. I was miserable by the time I got prescribed Lexapro. My doctor initially prescribed me Xanax to get me through until my antidepressants start working because they don't have that initial "kick" like Xanax has.  I was happy that I had the Lexapro to help me with my depression, and more so anxiety. The only side effects I have noticed is weight gain and lowered sex drive. I think those are nothing compared to feeling depressed. I would recommend this antidepressant."


"I've tried everything from Ambien to low doses of anti-depressants to OTC medications, and none have worked as well as Belsomra.

The sleepiness is overwhelming, but it feels completely natural (think of the kind of sleepiness you'd feel as a child after a long day of playing.) It's not a hypnotic like Ambien, so it doesn't get you high. It just makes you really sleepy.

My doctor told me to take it 15 minutes before bed time. I thought it wasn't working at first because I was expecting a quick reaction. Turns out it takes about 1-2 hours to start feeling the effects. I now take it 1-2 hours before bed time and sleep like a baby.

I've heard you can experience sleep paralysis on this drug. I haven't experienced anything negative yet."


"I have had the Mirena for about three years now.  I have to say that I love it. It hurt at first - but I don't even remember that now.  It works! My periods have been barely there, and are extremely regular. I have had no acne, some breast tenderness, and some weight gain  - about 10 lbs or so.  I recommend it."


"I've had acne for about 12 years now since I'm 13 years old.  I have tried different things including Proactive and Acne Free along with some other prescription medications. Nothing ever cleared it 100 percent. I have been using Differin gel 0.03% for a little over two weeks now. At first my face was dry and broke out worse then normal. The last few days my face has gotten better, I have about 5 blemishes rather then 12 large cysts that I would normally have. I am hoping that the rest clear up soon. I notice my acne scars have gotten better looking as well since using Differin. I am super excited to see the coming weeks progress."


"I am halfway through the tritation pack of Savella.  I haven't cleared the insurance hurdle yet.  I was relieved to learn others have experienced hot flashes and sweating.  No nausea, no sleep problems, but I am either fanning myself or changing out of drippy clothing!   From others' comments, I think I will give it a little more time because my energy level, motivation and pain reduction have definitely been better!  I can actually complete one or two chores per day!"


"If you have lost all hope over your acne, give TriNessa a patient try! I have always had moderate acne, but for the past half year my face broke out tremendously. I would constantly fret and cry about the painful and ugly cystic acne on my cheeks and when my gynecologist proscribed birth control for my hormonal acne, TriNessa was a godsend. It took time like many others mention, but as I am finishing my third month the acne I had several months back is now a nightmare along with scars to remind me. Along with taking this birth control my dermatologist prescribed a topical cream called Epiduo which helped in the process as I waited for my hormones to balance with the medication. THANK YOU TRINESSA!!!!!"


"My son is 13 yrs old and has been on Concerta for a couple of months for ADD.  He is doing great on it.  He is able to focus and his grades are back to A's and B's.  One thing I like about this medicine is that he is not losing weight on it.  He still has a great appetite.  The first two weeks his appetite was affected a little but now back to normal.  I would recommend this medication.  I even get positive feedback from his school."


"I had my very first infusion of Rituxan today, I feel like I have tried EVERYTHING. I've had Enbrel, Orencia, Humira, Xeljanz, Methotrexate, Remicade. All thumbs up so far. The infusion experience was great. I feel better but we also pushed Solumedrol steroids so that could be why. Crossing my fingers for no latent side effects and good results. Will try to check back in two weeks after second infusion."


"My life from the verge of collapse as the medication a previous doctor had me on for over two years made me want to sleep all day not get out of bed terrible mood swings and if I did not take the clorazipam as did not want to feel sleepy I would have severe side effects.  With my new doctor I have been on this medicine for just over a month and I cannot tell you how it has transformed my life rescued my marriage and being able to deal with my children again.  Thank you escitalopram for saving my life."


"I have been using Yaz for 1 year and still can't get regular periods. In fact sometimes I have my period for 2 weeks. It is horrendous and after reading these reviews will be changing. It is crazy expensive too!"


"I initially had Mononessa prescribed for PCOS but switched after 3 months to Sprintec. Of course I experienced the usual side effects with both i.e. nausea, mood swings, hot flashes, breast tenderness and headaches but only for the first week or two. However with Sprintec I am now experiencing depression, my skin on face and chest area above breast is not as smooth as it used to be and worst of all a yeast infection, which I have never suffered from before (awful itching but Monistat 7 is helping a lot). I'm still quite new to Sprintec and hope all this goes away."


"I absolutely love this medicine. Was so constipated that all I did was sleep. Was miserably "full" with Bowel Motion maybe once every 1 to 2 weeks. Nothing else worked for me. Slight nausea sometimes (which is nothing). My energy level is restored. I thank God for giving man the knowledge to make this medicine."


Prevention of Thromboembolism in Atrial Fibrillation

"I just started this on Sun (today is Tue)-I notice that I stop bleeding quicker with this (150mg X 2 daily) when shaving than I did with warfarin (7.5mg X 1).  I am taking the Pradaxa at 10:30am and 10:30pm.  So far have only taken 5 capsules with no problem except for last nights dose that woke me up with pain in the lower abdomen at 3am.  Lots of flatulence with the pain that eventually went away. "


"I have had an anxiety disorder and panic attacks for about 35 years. Prior to the medication the best medications were the benzodiazapines but I have a high tolerance to them now. This has been very helpful- no pounding heart, no head ache, no feelings of dizziness and that I am going crazy. Not sure yet if this medication is causing weight gain-too early for me to tell. I do have a little insomnia but overall I feel 100% better."


"Have been experiencing mild Erectile Dysfunction for several years, but never been a major problem until recently. Mainly because of a high stress level with work and some other things. My doctor gave me a prescription for 20 mg Levitra. I didn't feel like I needed the whole 20 mg, so I cut it in half. I took it about an hour before bedtime, and just a few minutes later I could feel it kick in. We went 2 rounds last night, and I could have gone a few more, and I'm still feeling it working this morning. The only side effects was some stuffiness but nothing too bad, and a mild headache that went away with some aspirin. "


"Sometimes this medicine (Percocet) 7.5/325mg takes away 90% of the pain in my legs, but sometimes I have to take two to get there. When it works it works well. Also makes me very tired. "


"This is a good over the counter Pain drug but I have to watch for side effects."


"Seems to be helping after the sudden loss of my son."


"Safe drug but slow motion , delay processing, but not fully controlled"


"Diagnosed with 2x3mm stone in ER on a Friday night. Given antibiotic, pain medicine, and Flomax. Passed stone within 48 hours! Amazing as I am a skeptical female RN. Side effects- only mild dizziness with first dose. Do I attribute ease of passage with this medication- certainly.  "


"I used to take clomipramine for many year for mild depression and anxiety and it was working excellent for me ....this last year i was in swinging mood and off and on ..my doctor suggests to try new medication...first day i took it i felt dizzy and upset stomach with headache but at the same time i felt soooo energetic and focus ...i was happy and willing to tolerate the side effects ...the 4th day everything change ...my body reacted badly to the medicine..had sever itching all over my body , increase heart rate , short breathe with numbness.....i called my doctor and he said it is OK ....we have to give the medication more time .....now after a month on this mediation i feel so tired and irritable and feel like my brain is freeze"


"I have taken Adderall 30 mg XR for a little over a year along with a 10 mg boost needed after lunch to get my attention and motivation going. Since it only helps a little to calm my thoughts down and only jump from starting 3 tasks instead of 5 and slowed my thoughts down a little bit the Dr thought to try this new medication Adzenys XR 15.7 mg. Started it 6 days ago and it does nothing for me. I have zero motivation to many thoughts are swimming around. also have a constant headache for the majority of the morning and dull one later and then a crash at midday. at least with Adderall my motivation was great, I thought about a few things at the same time instead of being bombarded and no crash."


"I have run through the entire wringer on SSRI's, an MAOI, and an SNRI. Lexapro in combination with low dose tramadol has been the most effective duo for me. Low dose 100mg once daily tramadol, with intermittent 'breaks' (from acclimation to the medicine) has worked well for me over the past 5-6 years in mood stability, energy, motivation, and concentration with no euphoric effects. All of these are very important in my line of work. I do think that an XR formulation might be more useful in stabilizing plasma concentrations and perhaps mitigate some issues with medicine resistance and tendencies to take higher doses (not a good idea). At any rate, use should be monitored. "


"This medication absolutely changed my life for the better.. Stress has always been something that has effected me all of my life, but one day it got the best of me and my anxiety attacks/stress led to depression. Being from a fortunate family, I had never gone through many hardships, so when I had a big struggle in my life I had no idea how to cope. I would sleep hours and strangely for the first time in my life, I did not want to interact with anyone and didn't want to even be active (I grew up playing all sports). Thankfully, I went to my family doctor and got the help I needed. After only 2 weeks on the medication, my overall mood and demeanor has improved dramatically and my anxiety/stress level is immensely lowered. :)"


"I have bad insomnia and have literally tried every sleeping pill currently available by prescription.  Restoril is the only one that gives me relief from the insomnia. "


"Before this I was on the Lo Lo estrine (which I'm back on). This pill was way to strong for me it would cause me to miss a period every other month. Also the side effects were so BAD. I was super emotional the entire month I would be taking it. I also had so much anxiety and I would even wake up anxious frenquently. That never happened so often before. The bleeding was irregular. I also was bloated all the time. I definitely wouldn't recommend this pill."


"I have been taking Carbatrol 200mg for 13 years and I can only pin point me being tired from the medicine. When I take it like prescribed I do not have any episodes."


"I've been on Nexium off and on for about ten years now. Depending how it was covered under my insurance, I had to go off it at times since it was not covered. I have tried Protronix, Prilosec, Prevacid (30 mg daily and 30mg 2x a day). Prevacid gave me horrible diarrhea. Nexium has been the best. My latest insurance company wanted me to try Dexilant for a month before covering Nexium. Basically one 60 mg Dexilant is like taking two 30mg Prevacids. Didn't do anything but give me a cold after a month, and lots of diarrhea. I always come back to the Nexium. When things improve I ween off it taking it once every other day for a while to get off of it. I have been getting my calcium and magnesium levels check every 6 months, always normal."


"(2017)
completely cleared my skin. I've had acne since I was 15 and I'm now 26. I did 6 month course. Side effects- dry lips, dry skin and hair. I took 40mg daily. It certainly did wonders and I am very satisfied!"


"This medication is a real life saver for aviaphobics/clausterphobics with panic disorder. I find .25 mgs prior to boarding an then an additional .25-.50 as needed stops an attack in its tracks. This medication (coupled with relaxing music on my iPod )has given me the ability to conquer the anticipatory anxiety and the panic itself. I cannot recommend this medication enough for true panic disorder/panic attacks."


"Not much help for my cold and cough.  Similar to horrible tasting liquid couch syrup my parents gave me as a kid.  My doctor prescribed it for my cough/ sinusitus.  I took a few doses per directions.  It did not help, but gave me a headache."


"I was skeptical of both this medicine and the depression diagnosis, but I had to try something to break the cycle of low motivation and anxiety. I've only been on 150mg for three days and the change has been incredible! My writing muse is back and I've gotten fantastic feedback from my new job. I hope it stays this way!"


"I'm another, I don't normally write reviews, but I need to for this. 40 Y/O NP.  I received the Skyla 20 days ago, while on my period.  The insertion- weird, painful, almost stopped, but didn't. Afterwards was crazy. I had taken 600mg ibuprofen  an hour before the appt.  I was almost terrified by what I had read.  After the insertion, I got up, went to the front desk to make my follow-up appointment, and started to feel queasy.  My home is only a mile away and I thought, just need to get there.  Got out of my car and fell flat on the ground /, face first.  Crying, it was AWFUL.  That all said, 20 days later, no issues at all. At this point highly recommend, even after passing out!"
