"This medicine is a life-changer.  Has reduced my excessive daytime sleepiness by about 80%. I rarely have to take any daytime narcolepsy medicines.  Has also stopped the hypnopompic hallucinations almost completely.  I feel like I got my life back.  I went from considering applying for disability to working full time with no accommodations.  This medicine gave me my life back!  Just be aware that it can take a good 6 months to adjust to it, find your therapeutic dose, and work off your sleep debt (from lack of deep sleep).  I ended up being prescribed an anti-nausea medicine while I was titrating my dose in order to overcome the nausea at first.  But now I can take it just fine. It's tough to adjust to but so worth it in the long run!"


"Have just been diagnosed with Relapsing-remitting  MS have been on Gilenya since March 2017 only side effect at the moment is constant joint pain, wondering if anyone else has experience this? Is there any pain relief for the joints that actually works?"


"I was previously on alese and transferred to this pill to control my acne. I have found many side affects to this pill such as weigh gain, breast enlargement and severe nausea. The nausea is my main problem as I hate feeling like that and throwing up in general so I am sceptical to keep on this pill."


"After being in denial, I completely broke down with anxiety and depression. Went to my doctor and prescribed me Pristiq. After a week I took a big turnaround for the best, so happy! Stick with it, give it a chance to work. Side effects were nausea for the first few days stomach upset, but don't give up! I have been on Celexa in the past but takes to long to kick in..plus 40lbs weight gain. Pristiq cuts the appetite ,and you not hungry, at least if you needs a few lbs off this is the medicine to be on!"


"I've been taking fluoxetine for 6 months now. I started taking at night after my first day due to drowsiness. I wake up periodically through out the night. My dr says it's not the medicine. But it has to be. I haven't had a good nights sleep in months! & I've always loved to sleep. The medicine works awesome though"


"I have been taking diclofenac for 3 years for arthritis in my lower spine.  When the doctor gave it to me he said I would see a difference or not in a day or two.  Immediately I had relief and could rise from a chair, lean over a table, and pick up objects.  Things I couldn't do for a year prior.  If I miss a day of this medicine the pain and stiffness returns.  I am very grateful."


"been on it for a couple weeks and after switching from one at nite and one during the day to one in the am and 1 in the pm (25mg), im doing much better, i seem to peter out near the time of my next dose but maybe i need to adjust a bit--25mg seems low after reading others dosages. been able to keep up w housework without feeling overwhealmed, i have more energy and more patience. Side effects=food tastes yucky, expecially my beloved sodas and rockstar energy drinks. Im loosing too much weight (Ive always struggled w being too skinny). But i feel better than i can ever remember feeling in 20yrs. i hope it continues, the side effects are worth it."


"I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia approximately 5 years ago. I was taking Cymbalta to help with the pain until my prescription insurance no longer covered it. My doctor gave me a months supply (samples) of Pristiq. I've been taking it for 3 weeks now and I've felt like myself for the first time in 5 years! My house has seen more cleaning in the past 2 weeks than it has over the past five years! I was a neat freak before Fibro and I'm all of a sudden a neat freak again! I love it! I do still have pain, but I'm able to control it with Darvocet. Pristiq gives me energy and ambition! I no longer have to take my daily nap(s)! I feel like I have a second lease on life! I could go on and on all day, but I need to get back to my cleaning! "


"Weight gain, severe depression during pms and intense itching. I was on loestrin previously and it was great for 2 months. I had no acne, my periods were better. As of the third month I was itching uncontrollably and was told it was dry skin but the itching coincided with the time I took the pill. I went off the pill for a year then my doctor put me on loloestrin trying to reduce the hormone. I'm not sure if weight gain was connected to that. I was having 2 periods a month. After 8 months of that, my doctor put me back on loestrin. I hoped it was a bad reaction to one Pack before. I had debilitating depression at least one day mid month and one during pms. During the second month, the itching came back. I always itched 20 minutes after"


"I used to smoke at least 2 packets per day for almost 20 years. I severally tried to quit without sucess. It was in 2001 while visiting a doctor friend when I learnt about the wonder drug zyban and decided to give it a try. I took 1 tablet per day for 1 week and has never looked back. No claving and no side effects.  After 1 week of no smoking at all, I gave the rest of the medication to a friend. The way I think zyban has a degree of success is when an individual also desires and is determined to quit. All I needed was 3 days of no smoking"


"Being a survivor of Spinal Cord Injury "lyrica" has literally been a life savor for me. As a matter of fact, I'm not sure if I would be able to live a normal life without it. Now, to the down side of "Lyrica". Who can afford it? A 30 day supply for me is $500 a month. I am disabled and because phizer got greedy and paid off a superior court judge we can not obtain the generic version of the drug. That said, who's best interest is in mind I ask? The people or the man? The sad thing is that I know this will never be seen by the people that all know I'm right and need the help like me but must suffer and live without medication that can change a persons quality of life. Thank you for allowing me to share. And if even one sees this. The riteone"


"So my girlfriend and I were having sex and next thing you know the condom broke. We went to a clinic were they gave her the pill and took it around 22 hours after we had sex. I was scared it didn't work because she was barely having symptoms. Her period was supposed to come the 26 but it never came I started to get worried and today it came. Trust me just wait and it'll come, don't stress or think about it too much"


"This helps with fibromyalgia pain, but I really need to take it 4 times a day as prescribed or still have pain. I still feel the pain, but it doesn't bother me that much."


"I like this medicine.  Even the side effects are manageable.  I get loopy on them, but that is better than the screaming drama queen I once was. I take 600 mg and have a psychiatrist and a councellor, who that helps me through situations that I used to rage through. Also, I'm a rapid-cycling BiPolar II so I think it's wonderful just to be able to be somewhat normal."


"38y old female that smoked for 21 years. I smoked the first week on Chantix and it tasted nasty. Before Chantix I loved the feeling of inhaling the smoke. After starting Chantix and because it tasted nasty, that feeling went away. I only took Chantix for two weeks. I didn't mind the weird dreams, but I could not stand the flu like symptoms. My body ached, I was always tired, and shortly after I took the pill, I would get a bad upset stomach. After all of that, I would do it again in a heartbeat! I love not being a smoker. No more smelly clothes. Smoked a pack a day so saving money there. Prior to Chantix I tried the electronic cigarettes to quit smoking, it didn't work. Now it keeps my hands busy. 3 months no smoke. YOU HAVE TO WANT TO QUIT!"


"Follow up...I'm about 1week and 3 days in and I have lost 12.2lbs! I can notice that my appetite is suppressed but no crazy headaches or other side effects. Today I battled with constipation so I will increase my fiber. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the results and will try and incorporate some exercises to maximize my results! Stay tuned!

#victoza"


"Take the smallest dose possible!  I took 50 mg of this and spent an entire day on the couch feeling dizzy and tired and completely wiped out.  It was only until a family member commented on how my anxiety seemed to be better that I realized it was true. I asked my Dr for the smallest dose and 5 mg. It is enough to calm my anxiety and help me sleep without feeling uselessly tired.  "


"I am 48 years old with osteoarthritis in both knees.  Had my first injection of a series of 4 weekly, then will go to twice a year.  I can already tell a tremendous difference.  Was able to do over 30 minutes on the elipitical machine and recumbant bike each for the past week with no pain.  Amazing.  The injections pinch a little bit, but probably won't this week as the doctor advised me to not over do it the day before.  If you are considering this treatment plan, I think you will be happy with the results.  I am."


"I take Bupropion HCL XL 150mg. I noticed an EXTREME improvement in my mood the very first day of taking it. I still take it with no side effects whatsoever. It helps me so much I cannot stress how much it has helped me for this past month of taking it."


"I have been on Trulicity (.75) for about 6 weeks.  Has lowered blood sugar about  25 points.  Will get A1C in two weeks.  The first shot left me with nausea and upset stomach.  That has passed and now I have no stomach problems.  I take shot at night and am fine by next morning.  It has left me with joint pain in my hands.  This pain started the first week and I still have some joint pain.  I keep hoping it will go away.  I will see what happens in the next few weeks.  I noticed in reviews that other people also had joint pain.  Do any of these people have information on how long the pain lasts??  In talking with drug company and pharmacist, no one has any information on this issue.  I have lost about 10 pounds."


Prevention of Thromboembolism in Atrial Fibrillation

"I am an 91-year old woman with permanent atrial fibrillation on 2.5 mg twice daily.  I have had no problems or side effects and eat lots of green vegetables.  Very satisfied with it, have been on it for two years."


"I had psoriasis start around the age of 20 and was not living a healthy lifestyle. After less than two years, getting healthy and topical treatments it went away (clobetasol was the best and tanning). About a year ago it came back with a vengeance (26 years old). It was all over - scalp (a lot), chest, stomach, back, legs, arms. I was so depressed, scared to date anyone, and went back to topical treatment which did not work at all. I tried oral methotrexate, steroids shots to my scalp, prednisone (worked briefly), but nothing would take me back to the days of just having a tiny bit on my elbows and scalp. Enbrel worked! My skin is completely clear outside of a little on my scalp but it's the best my scalp has ever been. Thank you Enbrel."


"I was on Kadian for a few years and this medicine worked well for me. If the doctors prescribe it the right way (increasing the dosage every month or so) then it can be a very effective medicine. Sadly after several years I was switched to Opana."


"I have tried Levora 28 in the past, an oral birth control that needed to be taken every day around the same hour. The pill made me feel moody, emotional and hungry. I have also been pregnant in the past and it ended up being ectopic and I had my right fallopian tube removed. My husband and I decided to try long term birth control and so far, after a week, Nexplanon has been great. Nothing like what I experienced after a week on the pill. I would only recommend for women who would like a long term birth control, but no matter what you choose you will be fine ladies :)"


"Was on percocets and norcos almost 16 years went to pain management was given suboxone was off all opiates in a week very little withdrawal, 6 -7 week program ...."


"I read plenty of reviews.
I drank a gallon of water through out the day as directed by the physician. I had one 16ounce clear jello, one 8 ounce chicken broth and the rest was bottled water throughout the day. I held my nose to avoid the smell that I read about. As I was drinking it, I gulped it down and the taste was very familiar to me. It was like a cough syrup that I had when I was younger. I had the two sixteen ounce bottles of water. This stuff works very fast. I was in the bathroom for three hours."


"Had hoped it would help with a constant nightly congestion, but it didn't.  Actually seemed a tiny bit worse.  Doctor hasn't found any allergies in what has been tested.  Though I have found anti-histamines to help in the past and I'm going to try those now to see if that helps."


"Viibryd has been great for me as far as taking care of my depression.  It started acting quickly and has been fantastic!  I have nothing but good to say about how well it treats my depression.

However, if I EVER miss my pills at night I am in REALLY bad shape the next morning.  I am extremely tired - but in a really weird way.  I am super sensitive to light - to the point it is dangerous for me to drive as the sun comes up because I can't keep my eyes open.  When I take a nap (because I am so tired) I have horrific nightmares that are really vivid.  It really is kind of scary. "


"I am allergic to penicillin and a few other antibiotics, so this was the best choice to clear my strep. Outside of the terrible metallic taste that I experienced within 6 hours of taking the Clarithromycin, the medication works very well. After 24 hours of being on this medication my throat feels so much better, my dizziness has subsided, and I no longer feel extremely weak and fatigued. My stomach is a little upset but it is not unbearable. I would rather take a minor upset stomach and metallic taste in my mouth over the extreme throat pain and fatigue the strep caused. As far as insomnia I'm more of a night owl so I couldn't say if the medication has contributed to my restlessness. I think this medication is a great therapy for strep."


"This medicine is amazing! It works wonders."


"dr determined that I had reached maximum lifetime dose due to the fact that after complaining for more than a year about severe epigastric pain, an egd showed that at least 60% of my stomach lining was sloughing and actively bleeding- I now have chronic hypomagnesiumemia and chronic pancreattis"


"This medicine made me feel so tired and sluggish."


"When I was in middle school it is hard if you have hyperhidrosis. Your self confidence is way low and I can NEVER wear shirts without a jacket over it to hide the pit stains. It really did suck. I started using drysol in the sixth grade because of my excessive sweating and it's been helping ever sense. The first week of using it, there is going to be itching but after a few days it should be fine. Do not use it after shaving or don't put too much on and that's what will cause the burning sensation everyone's talking about. Use a small amount, dry it via air or a hair dryer and you should be fine to go to bed. There is no point in using this product every single night. I suggest it!"


"lowered both sys and dia by 15 with no side effects"


"totally took the craving for alcohol away.  kept sober for two years - started playing with it after that and stopped taking it - only to start drinking again.  good to take when you are getting some support as well."


"I promised myself (like many others) that if this worked I would write a review just because I know how scary it is! Honestly, I would not worry at all:) Had unprotected sex (not on birth control) and he pulled out. I was still super scared (because I realized I was ovulating) and so I bought and took plan b within 2 hours of unprotected sex. This was on a Sunday. The following Tuesday I went and started birth control, which made things even more terrifying because it completely messed up when I was supposed to start my period. The weeks of waiting for my period were absolute hell, and trust me when I say things will be okay! This really does work! I got my period right on time during the second sugar pill! Ladies do not worry !"


"I have been taking Qsymia for 10 weeks and have lost 30 pounds. It has quietened the I am hungry voice I would so often hear not long after eating what I knew was a reasonable portion of food.  I would suggest to the manufacturer that they get you through the 3.75 phase in a week rather than two weeks because it seemed to me that it was easier to adjust to the 3.7g mg than the 7.5 mg. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who has tried and failed at losing weight."


"I was on it for 2 months and got extremely moody, emotional, anxious, and tired. I went to my OBGYN, and asked her if I should stop it. I was told to give it more time. I am normally a bubbly happy person, so I wasn't sure what was going on. Nevertheless, I stopped the pill because I didn't need it. After I got off it, I had the best 6 months of my life where I was happy   confident. I started dating someone and went on the pill again 5 weeks ago.  I started feeling insecure, anxious, paranoid and started believing and accusing him of not being into me and got mad at him at little things. I had heavy bleeding for 2 weeks straight and a week before my period I went into depression and had severe migraines. Will not take this drug ever again"


"This medicine helped my blood pressure and was used with Indapamide."


"I had taken Aviane for about 6 months straight and I did not like it.  My periods were a lot longer, my cramps were very bad, and I started breaking out on my face.  I also had a loss of appetite, and felt more tired everyday.  I do have to say it did help in preventing pregnancy, but I did not like the side effects.  I am going to see if I can change birth control."


"I was first put on the daytrana patch back in 2005 my freshmen year of highschool. I have been on and off it, due to me not needing it at some times. I am 25 years old now and still only need 20 mg patches. I have not had any issues with this medication aside from the fact that some of the backings on the patches won't come off sometimes. It can leave a sticky residue on my skin but nothing that bothers me. I just restarted this back up and have noticed a decrease in appetite.but once my levels get back to normal appetite also comes back. I highly reccomend to keep communicating with your dr about any thing that feels "off" to you. While on this medicine my grades have always come up from d's and c's to a's and b's."


"Feel relaxed, helps me stay asleep."


"Hi there I wanted to share with the ones that have dry mouth with this I also did if you go to walmart and go to the toothpaste isle find the tooth paste I believe it was called dry mouth in a blue package I used it once and it helped my dry mouth same day and other was able to use my regular toothpaste for a couple weeks before having to brush again with dry mouth tooth paste air wanted to share this because the dry mouth is what almost caused me to stop taking welbutrin but it works so great for me I wanted to try everything possible first:)  really hope this helps also if you don't have insurance good rx will decrease the cost tremendously :)"


"I really want parents to take a good look at what they may be about to give their children before they do so. If dopamine deficient; Vyvanse will initially appear to be amazing. Until a "tolerance" is built up when it will leave a person feeling as low/moody and agitated as they ever have. Recent studies indicate that mood disorders may mask themselves as ADD/ADHD. If you or your child is experiencing any of the major or severe emotional side effects of this or other stimulants; please consider that it could be mood disorders brought on by a dopamine deficiency. This is what happened to me and because I was aware of the symptoms of dependency and mood disorder, I recognized it immediately."


"I have used Topamax off and on for the past 5 years. Off (due to pregnancies.) I am once again on and love the drug. Although the side effects are something to get used to, tingling in the hands, etc., those can be corrected with the correct dosage. The best side effect is the weight loss which certainly helps. My migraines have completely gone away. I have been a migraine sufferer since I was 5 years old (some 27 years). Topamax is a wonder drug!!"


"While I was on this I pushed everyone away, my husband, my friends, and my family. I felt worthless and  felt like  no one cared about me. I was never happy, and almost lost my husband, and I lost almost all of my friends. There was extremely noticeable changes in my personality after I stopped using it. I started to feel like the old me within 2 days."


"Have been on the medication about a year.  Has worked wonders for me.  When increasing or decreasing dose I experienced terrible nightmares.  I am on a steady dose of 40mg and no problems at all.  Major drawback is price and getting insurance companies to cover it.  Needed to make a difficult choice of do I pay the price and feel good, or do I try something cheaper?  After being on other meds that do not work half as good as this , I decided to suck it up and find a way to stay on it."


"The side effects are being down more than I am up.  Headaches, fatigue, joint pain, nausea, diarrhea.  "


"Compared to CoLyte, this was a breeze.  Give me a break...a prep solution you can finish in 30 min vs hours???  I started at 6 pm, and was basically done by 7.  Not the most pleasant stuff to drink but compared to previous preps not bad at all. Mine was not really flavored so maybe that helped."


"I was just put on this medication three weeks ago. I didn't have a problem with nausea, but I'm moody, angry, sleepy all the time, and have absolutely zero sex drive. The bloating is the worse part and the constant stomach upset and gas. My period started two weeks earlier than it should have. This medication just doesn't work for me."


"Loved the patch! Been using it for about 5 months. The first 2 months my breast were super sore but I went up 2 cup sizes! Soreness started to taper off after 2 months. Weight, acne, and sex drive did not seem to be impacted. If anything they got better. Only complaint is that the patch would sometimes cause my skin to itch a lot."


"I have been on this pill for 10 days, purposely did not take it yesterday and already feel better today.  I have had a headache every day on this pill, sensitivity to light, nausea, and heart palpitations. Then the anxiety started setting in, and I felt detached from reality. I have a lot of stress in my life but have always been able to manage it.  I almost passed out while driving and went to the ER and have had every test known to man and everything is normal.  Yesterday I had a panic attack.  I have never had symptoms of anxiety or depression apart from normal stress and a bit of sadness after giving birth to my kids.  I know everyone's body reacts differently, but it took me several days to even consider this could be my birth control."


"I have been taking Klonopin for almost 3 years now. I take this medication for panic disorder, but I also suffer from bipolar disorder type I. Before this medication, I was very close to committing suicide because I was having
horrible anxiety attacks that lasted for hours at a time and sometimes carried over into the next day/morning. Klonopin has eliminated my panic attacks. I still feel anxiety from time to time and that's when I take 1mg. I take half if I feel anxious at work and don't want to feel too tired. A dose of 1mg makes me tired most of the time. I've taken 2mg when necessary, never needing more than that."


"Supposed to be 6 weeks to take effect. I felt instantly calmer, happen the NEXT day! Couldn't believe it. Started at 10mg moved to 20 MG in year of use. My problem now is  its been 7 years of working for me but 20mg doesn't have same effect of earlier years. I want to have  increase in MG use. How to I get doctor to do this?"


"I was prescribed Lyrica (pregabalin) about 6 months ago. I was so shocked by the feelings of unreality it initially caused that I quickly stopped taking it. My fibromyalgia got so bad at the end of the year, that I decided to try it again.

I take low doses, 25 mg 2x a day, sometimes a 50 mg. The effect sets in within hours. My fibromyalgia pain is almost completely gone. A late evening dose allows me to sleep longer.

I do feel strange when I take it and my intellectual capacity is quite affected, but the lack of distraction by the pain and a better social interaction with increased confidence levels makes up for that.

I have to make sure that authorities and decision-making bodies are aware of my reduced competence."


"I have been on Yaz for over a year now. At first it was great, my skin cleared up, my periods were regular, light and short and my moods varied only slightly. After about the first 5 months however, everything started going wrong. I have constant heartburn, I've gained 10 lbs., I'm tired all the time, my acne has returned and I've been spacey and forgetful. Worst of all are my periods. The week before and throughout my period my moods are ALL over the place, I'm irritable and easily upset which isn't like me. I'm getting severe cramps, migraines and I get really nauseous when I'm on my period, which are heavier now than they ever were and last usually about 8 days, last month it lasted 11! Everyone's different, but this isn't for me."


"I take 0.5 mg of Ativan as needed and it works wonders.  Anytime I get "wound up" and tense and can't catch my breath I will place one under my tongue and it does the trick!  I don't seem to get sleepy from them either.  Fortunately, I don't need it very often but when I do it calms me down quick."


"I have had narcolepsy my whole life and for the longest time I thought it was because I was lazy. As a straight-A student, I didn't understand why it was so difficult for me to get up, stay awake, and make my body match up with my motivation. Literally the first day I started taking this medication, I could stay awake in all of my classes and I felt the passion and love for learning I always had as a kid. For the past years, watching Netflix was the go-to rather than homework just because I couldn't muster the physical nor mental energy to follow through. While I have been successful in my academics, after concerta, I could study for longer, I could do more things, and I could finish my work faster. A 27 mg dose works all day (100 lbs)."


"I have tried this medication on a few ocasions. And it had never worked for me. I try to save a few dollars. Now I know better I will stick to the other two name brands."


"This is the only medication that worked for my monthly migraine, my co-pay is very high & and sometimes I cut the pill in half.  "


"This has been a miracle for me. I suffer from extreme OCD that had left me at times in a state of paralysis and constant fear. This medicine gave me back my life. It will not get rid of all of the OCD for you, but it will make it 90 percent manageable. The Dr who gave it to me was old school. None of the SSRIs worked for me. They were like sugar tablets. This one does. Highly recommend you speak to your physician about it as an option."


"I brought it from my country, the insurance does not cover this cream here. I only pay U$27

compared with almost U$400. Finacea is really work to me. I used to wear metroge(didn't work)l, taking  a lot of antibiotic in the past. my dermatologic gave me some Finacea samples because it was expensive. I can not understand why all dermatologic problems are considered "cosmetology and insurance not cover them."


"I fell 25 foot off a roof at work and shattered both heels and ankles, in October of 2008 and from the trauma of the fall and surgeries I got RSD (reflex sympathetic dystrophy). If it where not for the Oxycontins I would not be able to do what needs to be done day to day. And they work well with the other medications I am on. "


"After a year on Femara I am beginning to experience severe hair loss, bald patches on top of my head and the hair is turning thin and brittle. Insomnia for the last 2 months, pain in my joints, I was diagnosed with Glaucoma and am very forgetful, i.e. find it defficult to concentrate.  But, if Femara stops the recurrence of cancer, I'll keep taking it.  If it just were not for the hair loss. "


"I have had Eczema, for my whole life. I am a woman in mid 40's. It seems to be mainly stress related and has been fairly awful the past 10 years. I stopped kenalog shots about 6 years ago, my eyesight and joints were suffering. The past 6 years have been hell.
My allergist helped get me this drug and even worked with the pharm rep to get a coupon for zero co-pay (using commercial insurance). I am thrilled to have had my first 300 dose just a few days ago. Within hours my skin felt softer. I have read all the studies and appears you will see max results between 30-45 days so I will come back and write more. I do see my eczema clearing up -- I am very flaky on my face right now so that is itchy but the intense itch seems to have subsided."


"It's honestly not as as all of the reviews, I have taken dulcolax a few times now. Yes I get the cramps, and I get nauseated, I get the shakes, and the sweats but it's not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. I took one tablet my first time and it didn't make any movement for me. So I took two after a few days and worked well for me. I did take it at night so I woke up needing to use the restroom. You will be caught off guard, my suggestion is to make sure you are home when you take it and make sure you aren't doing anything that day and no work, I think it is the best time to take it on your day off so you can feel more relaxed at home."


"After the birth of my daughter my epilepsy came back full force. Just like it did when I was 15 years old in high school. I was extremely upset since my daughter was barely a month old and I was trying to figure out how to stay seizure free again. I started with Keppra 500mg. Then needed to raise it to 750mg for a year it was twice a day. Stress was a big factor that would set my seizures to join my life again. Started having seizures at work and ended up on keppra 1000mg twice a day. Still could not get the seizures to stop. Wean off the keppra and to vimpat 100mg twice a day. So much better but feel like I am not all the way recovered after all I went through. Did have weight gain and hair loss but way better than keppra for me"


"I have been on Zoloft, Lexapro and Effexor. Effexor has been the one that worked for me, the other two were nightmares. I took Effexor during a particular bad time after high school and it saved my life. I had wanted to die back then. Just recently these past couple years I've noticed my depression creeping back and the death of a family member has added some anxiety in there as well. I told my doctor I needed something or I was gonna spiral downward. I am taking the lowest dosage 37.5 MG I believe. It's been two weeks and I've had some expected side effects. Nausea, constipation, trouble sleeping, and a little bit of dizziness. Nothing terrible. Within three or four days I noticed a change. It's worked for me and I'm glad I'm back on it."


"ADD/ADHD has always been an issue, sure - grades sucked, concentration lacked, motivation gone. But, when the doctor prescribed Concerta, that all changed. I felt a change and saw my grades and concentration get better and better. The appetite loss was a minor issue. I've always been a big eater with a super fast metabolism. When I was told I was a few pounds overweight, I was happy. The solution to the problem is to force yourself to eat. It's not a bad sacrifice if you see a positive difference in your performance. I'm 6"5', 17 years old, and 210 pounds. I'm skinny, sure, but I'm willing to sacrifice quite a bit so I can do better in school. :)"


"I've only been on this med for three weeks; my b/p seems to be adjusting how ever it's normal or low at bedtime for example (110/46) (118/60) in the morning when I take it it's (178/90) 188/84) as the goes on it drops to (142/68) strange things happen to our bodies as we age .I'm going to continue taking it to see if my pressure become adjusted after three months I'll check the progress."


"Our 8 year old son started Intuniv the other day having been recently diagnosed with ADHD. His behavior during the day was definitely much less impulsive than ever, and he napped at 5pm (1mg administration at 9am). He awoke complaining of an upset tummy but ate dinner anyway. 2am & 5am vomiting. Poor kid. He doesn't know it's because of his new 'Vitamin'. Does the vomiting  go away? Is there a way to preempt the nausea? We gave him plenty of water and healthy snacks when he was hungry...not up for doing this to him if this pattern sustains."


"When I decided to get the Liletta it was because I didn't want to have to constantly take a pill every day, then my mother would find out. Also I wanted to finish school without pregnancy scares.
My cramps are usually very heavy, and painful. So when they put the Liletta in, the cramps were mild and nothing compared to my regular ones. Of course for other females it might be a tremendous amount of pain for them, or just mild. It was a little uncomfortable but after the pain was done, I sat up and started to already bleed. I felt completely fine, and only had light cramping which i barely felt. I will say that I have bled everyday since the procedure. It has been about 6 days since then. I don't know how long I will spot."


"At first after reading the reviews I was very skeptical about taking this medication.

I suffer from anxiety and have been taking Xanax PRN to treat the attacks. It seems that the user response to this drug does vary greatly. I am very reactive to mosquito bites and take benedryl frequently. I get no sedative effect from benedryl.

The first night taking this drug it took about an hour for any sedative effect to kick in and shortly after I went to bed. The following day I felt rested and not groggy at all, however I did experience blurred vision at things in the distance.

The second night I took it and didn't notice any sedative effect after an hour. I went to bed and woke up feeling fine. Vision seems to be normal."


"I started taking 20mg daily after losing my job, moving to a new house and town and my Mom was diagnosed with cancer.  It has been about 20 days and I am feeling better already.  Placebo effect or not I am handling the stresses of life much better.   I mainly chose to seek help because I was wrecking my relationship with my true love.  I lost my appetite for the first 2 weeks but it is coming back slowly. I have not experienced any side effects.  I recommend this medicine and I have never taken a prescription medicine for stress/anxiety or depression before. For those of you looking for some relief and calm- I say Do It.  It is definitely worth trying."


"This medicine has really helped me. I've been drinking lots of water anyway, and the Dr. also gave me Mucinex and Tessalon to help with productive coughing. Thank God for modern medicine."


"For symptoms of ADHD (impulsivity, inability to sit still/restlessness, and inability to focus on a task at hand), I give this medication a 10/10. That said, I have Tourette Syndrome, and would caution ANYONE with Tourette Syndrome to stay away from stimulant medications, because they seem to exacerbate existing tics quite aggressively (I have tried 10-40 mg methylphenidate [RITALIN] and 20mg ADDERALL XR). I gave it a 10 based on it's effectiveness for ADHD, but factoring in the aggravation this medicine causes to tics, I would give a 5/10.

I have a "good" United Health Care plan, and they would ONLY cover the brand name; even with insurance, the co-pay for a 30-day supply was $35.00."


"I started Adipex after the birth of my child. It has helped me get to my goal weight and I feel great. "


"I had bad experience with Trinessa so was scared to try another but this has been great. No side effects except breast tenderness first month but went away. After first pack, periods were on track. My moods have been great and no PMS mood swings. Also no weight gain or nausea and acne has finally stopped after years of struggle. That was main reason for this pill."


"I'm 18 I started depo in April 2015. I was bleeding off and on big blood clots and I didn't take the second one. Now it's December I stop bleeding then it started again but now I'm light bleeding and I only took 1 depo shot "


"I have found them to do the job for me so far."


"This so far has been the only pill/birth control  where I don't feel emotionally unstable; I feel like my regular self.  HOWEVER, I have noticed a significant increase in pimples: breakouts on my face. It looks terrible, like connecting the dots.  I feel like I'm just going to deal with it because it's the lesser of the two evils. Also, this is only my second pack of if, but I did have 2 periods in one cycle. I've never had that with another birth control.  Probably going to get another pack at my next appt. I would much rather feel emotionally normal than have perfect skin. Yes, my skin is looking bad. But not many other options!"


"This was great for a preventative, I really love this medication- but I'm always so incredibly tired and fatigued.  I recently started a morning boot camp at work and am unable to finish a few minutes worth of exercise without muscles cramping up or my endurance just plummeting and I'm wiped out for the rest of the day.  After some research, I switched over to a cocktail of feverfew, magnesium, and riboflavin and will see how this works out.  I've been off of the Inderal for 5 days and have a bad headache today, but I'm not tired for the first time in months!"


"I've been on Gleevec since Aug. 24 2001 for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia. I've had no side effects with it. The only side effect I had is when the doctor had me on both Gleevec and interferon it caused my heart function to drop. They took me off the interferon and heart function was normal. Been in remission for 11 years."


"All I can remember of taking this drug are the side effects. It became difficult to walk two miles in the morning, the distance I could swim comfortably slowly reduced and my legs started to swell. Between starting treatment and my next visit to the doctor was three months. He was very surprised. This drug has an excellent reputation for the treatment of type 2 Diabetes but take care."


"I had Mirena for 4ish years.  I had no pregnancies and almost no periods, which is exactly what I wanted.

I did have to make an OB appointment and have a quick ultrasound to check it once.  I felt it move somehow during sex and then had a bit of bleeding.  OB confirmed that it was just a scratch and not a uterine puncture or anything major.  The other downside for me was sexual side effects, most notably "diminished arousal response"

Even with those two negatives, I would get Mirena again if I were in a position where preventing pregnancy was essential."


"OMG took 2 pills at 6pm woke up at 2:30am and thought I was dying from the cramps. I spent about an hour rocking back and forth on the toilet and nothing happened for about 45 minutes. But the cramping, faint feeling and nausea were so unbearable I was crying for my mom. I have never had cramping so bad... definitely NOT gentle or subtle, it got the job done but I will never take it again."


"Taken at night with a common yeast infection pill worked great!"


"After being allergic to all mesalamine drugs, remicade, and built up antibodies against Humira I was hopeful after my 4th treatment that I was finally in remission. Then the morning of my 5th treatment I go into the doctors office. About 15 minutes after my IV started I began to feel really light headed. I had a tight chest and my whole body felt heavy. This out of body feeling came over me and I was fixated on one spot of the room. Next thing I know I wake up to EMTs over me saying I had unresponsive pupils with hives. They said I was unresponsive to everyone around..I don't remember anything else until I got to the ER. If you start to feel dizzy-tell the nurse right away! Good luck to everyone."


"I've taken these as needed and every time I have to prepare myself for being "uncomfortable" and prepared by not leaving the house for at least 4-5 hours. I have to say it will make you go however the next 3-5 hours are unpredictable.
I've experienced some withdrawal type feelings as well as anxiety/ restlessness.
I keep this medication on hand incase I really need it to "go".
I may take 1/2 of a dose and see if I can get a more gradual BM."


"I  get sick, angry and depressed from the medicine.   I get migraines, I can't take it but through my research I am going to ask for Armour , it is natural but it replaces two hormones and you do need a prescription"


"I am 17 and have been diagnosed with PCOS since December 2014. I started Metformin 1 week ago and the side effects have been fairly uncomfortable. The biggest and most surprising size effect I've encountered has been sleepiness. Today I had 20 oz of a cappuccino and 2 Dr. Peppers but I was still tired throughout the day. I gained 20 lbs since 2013 and am hoping i will lose some on metformin since a lot of reviews say they lost some pounds on it. Keeping my fingers crossed. Definitely encountering decreased appetite, upset tummy, and discomfort, but nothing I can't handle. Too soon to tell if there will be many positive effects."


"I was on this medicine for over 35 days. Started with the 10 mg and did feel better, after that 7 days I was taking 20mg and just did not feel great, than 7 days later went up to 40mg and once again did not feel right.  I had more anxiety and started to feel like I was getting ill. I lost 15lbs and and no appetite. The thought of eating made me sick.  So, unfortunately for me this medication did not work. I'm off the medication for 4 days now and I have my appetite back and feel like myself. I do suffer with bad anxiety daily and it does control me but I realize I have to be the one to take control of my life and work at it."


"Helped to relieve some of my depression and anxiety during a very tough time. Was used in combination with wellbutrin xl and seroquel."


"United Health would not cover it. $80.00 a month !!!!!  and it made me so much worse. I started to have at least 5-10 anxiety attacks a day after I started taking it and my depression got worse. Evil pill."


""Birth control will relieve cramps!" she said. Initially she put me on a combination pill and all was fine until I had an allergic reaction. She thought putting me on this darn shot would be a better idea and I trusted her. All was fine for about a month until I started to feel physically repulsive. Mind you, this has never been an issue with me. My breasts look like nubs i. e. lost their perkiness and my stomach looks like I ingested an entire inflated balloon. I also have chest acne which has never been a problem for me, even as a teen. I constantly feel disgusted with myself. Is it in my head? Maybe, but I hate feeling gross all the time. My boyfriend is still weirdly attracted to me.   I refuse to get this again."


"Had my Skyla IUD inserted on the 4th and the insertion part for me was very uncomfortable & painful... I cried while having it inserted. But was comforted the whole time, which made things better. After having it inserted, I went home and rested with my heating pad. No pain meds taken before or after my insertion. Cramping took place several hours after, would stop and return shortly again. On a scale from 1-10, the cramping was a 7 the 1st day.

Week 2: occasional strong cramps in my admoninal area, light bleeding/spotting, feeling nausea, bloating  (common side effects)

Will try this out for a couple months, if no sign of improvement or better comfort will have taken out. FYI everyone's experience will be different. Be your own judge :)"


"horrible horrible horrible. insterted the cream (which I had trouble doing) and after about ten minutes the inside of my vagina started to itch & burn, at first it was a little bit and I could handle it but then I was in instant tears from the pain. I didn't know what to do, so I ran to the shower to try and rinse it off. I still have some inside me, which I can tell since there's still a slight itch & burn, but omg never again. worst pain of my entire life!!"


"I had my implant removed today after two years, as I’m moody all the time and my hair has thinned out. It took half an hour and three different nurses to remove the implant as they couldn’t get the tip of the implant out. I won’t be getting another ever again!"


"Recently switched from Paxil to this because I was gaining a lot of weight. But I found that this made my IBS Symptoms worse. It also did not improve my mood for depression.. I will probably have to switch back on Paxil but don't really want to since Paxil is one of the top highly addictive and hard to get off antidepressant."


"I have been taking this for a few months and am satisfied. A little moody sometimes but satisfied."


"changed my life - I now stay asleep 7-8 hours and zero side effects"


"Seemed to help at first but now it doesnt seem to work as well. I've been on it 3-4 months now. It's very expensive. I'm with United HC and its $60 a month."


Monistat 1-Day or Night Combination Pack

"A man must have invented this because a woman surely wouldn't do this to other females.  Omg, the itching and burning is terrible."


"I've been on NuvaRing for 3 months.  I chose Nuvaring because I knew I couldn't be trusted with taking a pill everyday but wanted birth control to help regulate my periods, ease mood swings, and clear skin.  On Nuvaring still have mood swings, more headaches now, at times feel very tired, still have bad breakouts and also an almost non existent sex drive.  I assumed all this was because I was home with 3 little kids, until I noticed a pattern while on the Nuvaring.  Three days after I take the ring out, I have a surge of sexual desire (also this is when my period starts, figures).  I'm going to stick with it for another 2 months to see how it goes, meanwhile I'm going to talk with my doctor again about better options."


"I have had migraines my entire adult life. When I got the most recent pain, the doctors were quick to call it a migraine. I felt like my head would explode, and I had none of the other side effects attributed to migraines. My doctor instead now calls it "severe head pain". I had it every other day for about a month. I actually called "911" at one point because I thought I was dying the pain was so horrible. When I was first given elavil I was skeptical since it was touted as an "anit-depressant". I took it, and the first three days I actually had to take naps because it made me so sleepy. On the fourth day I realized that although I still felt a little sleepy, I was now officially four days head pain free. It has been a Godsend."


"Well I'm on my first pack in my 2nd row  bleeding still my doc say I just started so give it time I just wanna stop bleeding, my boobs are sore, other then that haven't notice any other side affects. Yet I do have some light cramping in my  uterus.  Can someone help me should I give it a chance since it's my first pack or give up"


"Taken alongside Lithium, Quetiapine for bipolar one. This medication is old but very effective against anxiety associated with bipolar disorder. No side effects apart from feeling a little drowsy at times."


"To get rid of the bad taste I tried candy. Something sweet that dissolves slowly. That worked for me."


"i took two last week and my stomach hurts now with a throbbing headache i don't like the side effects my whole body was in pain. i stopped taking it."


"Taking 20mg of Feldene with a small snack to lessen any irritation and has helped the inflammation of osteoarthritis in my spine. I have had pretty good results by paying attention to that. That said, NSAIDs have their limit as far as advanced OA goes and I have had to add other things but it does what it's supposed to do, reduce inflammation pain. One happy side effect, reduced monthy pains at that time of the month."


"I'm 15 and I started taking Tri-Sprintec about 8 days ago to help with my acne and horrible periods. I have been reading all of the reviews and so far I don't think it is as bad. Yes, I have breast tenderness, nausea, and intense stomach pains, but it's nothing I can't handle. Others say those symptoms go away after a few packets, and I'm willing to go through with it. "


"After three days of being on this medicine I started breaking out like acne all on my lower neck, blood pressure was very high stomach started cramping and oh my word the back pain was way worse than any period pain I ever get - and trust me cycle pain is thru the roof but Aygestin put s new meaning on that "


"I was off of work for two weeks. I figured I would quit smoking as I have a high stress job and quitting while working would be a nightmare. I tried quitting at the beginning of the vacation, but as happened with most previous quitting attempts, I failed after day 3 (My hardest). I started taking Chantix two days later and after 3 days on Chantix I just stopped smoking. It was not easy. It still takes some will power but it only took a fraction of the will power it took the past few times I tried to quit. I have been smoke free for 14 days now. The cravings still come from time to time, but after the 3rd or 4th day they have not been nearly as bad. Just get through the first few days. I smoked a pack a day for 18 years."


"I've only been on it for a week now and I have some side effects such as moodiness, breast soreness, hair loss, bloating, diarrhea. It's not too bad though and I hope it subsides. I like that it is more convenient than the pill. You don't have to remember to take it everyday. But don't listen to people saying they hate it because some birth controls work for certain people and people complain about them all. Just experiment. Also my boyfriend said he couldn't feel it so that's a plus."


"Am 45 on blood pressure medicines. Have tried samples of all three erectile dysfunction medicines.  Viagra and Levitra both give me headaches.  Cialis, however, gives me no side effects whatsoever, except of course for a great erection (even if I've been drinking).  And it lasts for the 36 hours as advertised.  Nice to be able to take one on Friday night and be good for the whole weekend."


"I found this drug to be quite problematic for me.  It caused such severe dehydration after shifting to the 300mg dosage that I could not get through a night's sleep without awakening to excruciatingly painful leg and foot cramps that thoroughly awakened me.  I would also awake at night and in the morning, feeling as if someone had poured sand in my eyes.  Even my eyes were dehydrated.  I attempted to address the dehydration by drinking as much as a gallon and a half of water per day, with a lot of water before bedtime.    Constant urination (of course!) No real effect on my glucose readings.  Prior to starting Invokana I had started a no sugar/starch diet, and returned to daily exercise which brought my numbers down more than Invokana."


"I was on Abilify for 3 weeks total. On the 3rd day on the drug I started to feel shaky, like something had to be moving at all times. I figured it would just go away so when I got no sleep that night from this I thought tomorrow will be better. But on day 4 it was worse so I called my doctor and he told me to take a half a pill and by this time my legs were visible shaking out of control. I would have to push on them to make them stop. On days 5, 6 and 7 I had the same thing: shakey and no sleep. Everything hurt from the shaking. It was so bad at one point I broke down in the middle of my in laws home. That day my doctor took me off this medicine and 2 days later all the shaking was gone."


"I can't open this bottle and will probably have to return it. It is so frustrating. It looks like many people are having this problem with the Afrin childproof caps."


"I'm on 200mg Lamictal and 150mg Wellbutrin for bipolar II with mania controlled and depression affecting my daily life. Added 20mg of Latuda 3 weeks ago and I've seen massive improvement. I went from sitting at home on the couch all the time to going out and applying for jobs and completing many projects around the house. It does come with drowsiness, works better than my prescribed sleep medication, and some nausea but food solves that. I don't know if my dosage will be increased but I feel great now with all my other medications plus the Latuda. Overall the pros make the cons nonexistent in my eyes."


"So far my experience is everything that I knew it could do...FASTER INSULIN is what we need and afrezza is here!  Afrezza works in 12-15 minutes and todays meal time insulins (Humalog & Novalog) work in 45-60 miniutes...So I NO longer have the post meal highs. Having a higher blood sugar after every single meal long term does a lot of damage to ones body. Afrezza works right away and I no longer spike high after a meal. I used to be afraid to eat because I knew that my sugar would start to rise. Having a blood sugar that is high is only something diabetics would relate to and let me tell you this, I wouldn't wish is upon my worst enemy.  Afrezza also leaves in the body in 45 minutes! Did I mention NO NEEDLES ?"


"I have taken Ambien CR on a nightly basis for nearly two years now and have found that it is truly helpful. I have found that after a year or so on a 6.25 mg dosage I had to go up to 12.5 mg in order to achieve the same result. Other than developing a tolerance to it however, I have found that Ambien CR is extremely effective. I am able to fall asleep easily and my sleep is a very peaceful one that leaves me feeling well rested in the morning."


"I have been taking this med for about a month, and absolutely love it!  It has been the best thing that has happen to me in a long time.  Before Brintellix I was extremely moody, angry, impatient.  Since Brintellix I feel like  my  whole life has changed. I have been better dealing with my husband and children.  My husband  and I had a horrible relationship before... Arguing all the time.  Honestly, we haven't had one argument since I've been taking  this med.  For me, it makes me less irritable.  The only not so great thing about this med is that it keeps me up at night.  I have a HARD time sleeping all night.   Besides that, its absolutely great!!"


"My psychiatrist utilized every combination you can think of and finally Nardil. While I am very careful about foods and wear a medic alert bracelet and carry an alert in my purse that NO Demerol can be given as it can cause death, I finally feel better from a deep depressive state since October 2008.  My memory state however has not improved but my physical state has and I can at least get out of bed and be somewhat sociable with friends and family. I have had a very positive experience with it so far."


"Hi, I'm trying to find a new medication to try for my GAD because lexapro isn't working anymore. I've been on that for 5-6 years now. Went from 5mg to 20 mg. Please share some experiences with me. Bad/ good. I despratly need to know I do not trusty doctor he is a pill pusher and I want to know what I'm getting into before I start anything and I'm thinking Zoloft sounds good."


"Absolutely hate it had it put in in Nov 2014 and by March 2015 I was 85 pounds heavier .I had bad breakouts to the point they became open sores. I was retaining water like crazy and my hair is falling out to the point that I have a patch on the back of my head about 2inx 1inch that is completely bald and smooth like it won't grow back in. Just got it cut out today and was told that it could take another 9 months for my hair to. Start growing back in. Also so irregular with periods I would never know when to carry tampons with me and the one time I don't it comes full force.Do not get this unless you want to go from a size 8-10 pants to an 18w... :( hoping the weight comes off so I can go back to normal)"


"i have had 2 incidences with DVT and PE in 2012  first one both, leg and lung,  leg swelled was being told everything but DVT, went to hospital they found it. all the hospital things interventional radiology went in and shot PE with clot busters,  icu 4 days  heparin drip then lovenox shots came home on coumadin for 9 months,  3 years later massive PE only symptom with this was SOB,  seen all the Dr's heart, hematologist, vascular,  pulmonary, can't find the WHY this happened, taking Xarelto now for 10 months will be on it for life, i do not have any side effects that i am aware of, or that bother me,taking it religiously every night , only scary thing is no antidote as of now, and afraid it will come back, cat scans showed it has improved"


"I first got on Jolessa because the menstrual cramps I suffered each period were HORRIBLE. I haven't had any cramps or spotting since starting the pill, other than the obvious period related ones when that time finally does roll around. I'm mostly happy with this brand! However, one thing I have noticed since meeting my boyfriend and becoming sexually active with him is that this pill kills sex drive dramatically. I gave it a good rating because I'm pleased with it's performance, but I'll be switching for a more healthy sex life with someone that I care deeply for."


"I love this medicine. The only caveat. The difficulty in filling the actual prescription. I have all the side effects you have all mentioned but as everyone said, well worth it.  I'm a teacher and in my last two weeks of school. I need the insurance issues to clear up so I can pick up the rest of my medicines."


"Sweating stomach upsets joint back hip pain and leg pain weight gain sleeping problems  headache"


"Really has done wonders for me.  Have nothing bad to say."


"I had unprotected "sex" meaning there was no penetration but parts still came into direct content if that makes sense, so I took plan B one step about 38 hours afterwards just to be on the safe side. I was pretty scared to take it because of the list of side effects but my only major symptoms were extremely tender breasts and mood swings. I also experienced slight cramping occasionally and a bit of nausea but neither were too severe. I had to wait a little over a week for my period which was agonizing. I got it exactly on time and the cramping was very painful, but definitely worth not being pregnant. Super happy that plan B worked for me!"


"I have spondalopathy and My Enbrel was not as effective anymore and not long after taking my first dose of methotrexate in conjunction with the Enbrel the pain in my lower back was gone."


"It's always been effective.  However, every so often I get a bottle that smells odd.  I took it to the pharmacy and he noticed too.  I told him I'd never noticed it before and he seemed puzzled by it also.  I worry there are bad batches or tampered with prescriptions.  It's not all the time it happened in 2014 also."


"I really have a love/ hate relationship with Quetiapine. Here goes...

Love- keeps moods stable, helps with my psychosis and disassociation linked to Bipolar and EUPD. I feel like it keeps my more volatile mood swings back and helps me to be calm in situations I would ordinarily struggle with.

Hate- Man, it makes me eat. I've been on it for 9 months and I've put on just over 2 stone. I hate being this heavy but it seems no amount of gym sessions (I'm extremely physically fit but can't loose the weight) and diets help. Every night I go the fridge after I've taken 200mg of it. It also makes me super tired and I REALLY struggle to get up in the morning. I also feel like I'm trapped in a cycle- if I come off it, my moods are awful."


"Abilify has worked wonders for me. I told my doctor that I just didn't seem to care if I did things or not, and that things just didn't bother me enough to make me want to fix them. She gave me Abilify and even though I had my doubts that anything would work, 3 days after starting taking them, I found myself not wanting to stay still long enough to watch a whole TV show, because I felt there was better things I could be doing. I have been cleaning, rearranging, and packing away things every day since it took effect. I have never been one to want to do stuff. I would do what needed doing, but nothing more. Now, I just want to do it all. Love this stuff."


"Spent a week vomiting and with diarrhea. Couldn't keep anything down and was getting worse instead of better. I ended up driving to the ER with a vomit bag to my face trying not to crap myself. When they gave me the Zofran, I felt better in 5 minutes and was able to eat a little plain chicken and rice with broth a couple hours later. I didn't realize just much nausea I had until the whole room suddenly stopped waving. Slept better than I have in a long time and this morning I didn't throw up! Crackers and Gatorade for breakfast! Every 6 hours and I love this little pill."


"When I first started taking Lexapro it made my depression even more severe. Then after being on it for several weeks I became a zombie.  No, I wasn't depressed anymore but I couldn't feel happy either. And it also made my night terrors much worse."


"do not take unisom NEVER! Its dangerous. Increase heartbeat. I could not move in the morning. it was so fast! I thought I'll be dead. This pills should be forbidden to sell ut for some reason they are free to buy. I took them twice. after that they went to garbage. now I using melatonin. no problem with it and i can use it every day. UNISOM IS DANGEROUS FOR YOUR HEALTH"


"My doctor wrote out this pill for me and I lost 9 pounds the first week. After taking the pill everyday for a week I had shortness of breath and the following Monday I had a huge panic attack that landed me in the ER... The pill does work but I can't handle shortness of breath!"


"I've had the mirena IUD for 5 months now and so far I've loved it!! I haven't had any weight gain or acne symptoms that everyone talks about in their reviews. I bled for maybe three days after the procedure and haven't had a period since. The procedure sucks but its bearable. It felt like intense cramping for maybe a minute then it's over. I suggest taking 800mg of ibuprofen before and after because I did have cramps and dizziness for the whole day. I switched to mirena from oral BC because oral BC made me absolutely crazy (crying at every little thing, irrational, emotional, blowing up at people for no reason, ect) ladies DON'T LET THE REVIEWS SCARE YOU because every body reacts differently.. you truly have to try it out for yourself!!"


"I had my infusion on Friday.  My doctor gave me Tylenol at that time and said take one twice a day for 3 days.  On Sunday I woke up with some leg muscle pain.  Took 2 Tylenol and an Aleve Later on in the morning.  Felt fine all day and I resumed by gym workouts on Monday.  This was a breeze."


"I am a nineteen year old woman taking Concerta for ADD. It really helps me. I can focus a lot better and I feel a lot more relaxed. My boyfriend and I went from fighting every single day to not fighting at all. It has absolutely worked wonders for me. The only side effects I have had is no appetite and I have lost six pounds in less than a week which I am not complaining about since I am five foot three and weighed 155 pounds beforehand. I have also experienced a terribly dry mouth but my doctor said it should go away when I start my second dose. Overall, I love it and I would recommend it to anyone!"


"This product is AMAZING. For my whole life i thought the condition I had was rosacea and spent literally £100's of pounds on these worthless moisturisers thinking it would work Its magic.. But no. So I had enough of my bad skin and went to my GP. She actually said I had acne and prescribed me epiduo gel.. Which was £8... Oh my God i cannot believe how amazing this stuff is. So for the first few weeks my face was RED and dry and so sensitive it hurt! I literally couldn't put any products on my face and had to buy the most moisturising moisturer from Clinique which helped alot... However, the results, even after few weeks were so noticeable! I'm so HAPPY this has worked wonders for me."


"Recently diagnosed and put on this ~ has helped considerably. I know from my doctor that nothing will be 100% helpful, so with that in mind I feel it has taken me from being unable to do ANYTHING to giving me a few hours a day to function (cook, laundry, paybills, etc) which was more than I had, and gives me hope. I take the time released formula (300 mg)."


"I am on my 9th day today , and only quit smoking yesterday, was on 2 for the past 3 days before my quit day (to be completely honest , unless it was social pressure i wouldn't even had them ). I woke up today excited about life. My sense are going through a new phase as well, I can finally enjoy the taste of my food and smell the wet grass in the park. Its all new for me but i am just loving it , and since champix is blocking all your cravings you start wondering why didn't I do this earlier? There are side effects for sure, its completely worth it. I realized that the side effects that i had are the same ones when I tried to quit not using Champix, I did have terrible dreams back then , and would wake up sweating."


"No noticeable difference with Januvia, which was added to Metformin, Glipizide, and now Victoza. I have been taking the first three meds for a few years.  My question is that I often see the entire Januvia pill, undigested, in my stool.  Why is this?  I tend to be constipated but do not take laxatives.  I told my doctor, but she did not seem concerned.  If this med is just passing through my body, what is the point?  I take my Januvia, and Glipizide before dinner, and my Metformin before breakfast and my night time snack. ( I have high morning sugars.)"


"I bought the 3 day one from rite aid . The first day i inserted it just gave me sum itch but the second and third day i felt nothing and my yi symptoms are gone.... so im happy with this product .."


"A total waste! It was way too expensive, but if it worked it would have been worth it! Got it took two the first night. Could not keep my eyes open the next day, Day two took one at night and didn’t work at all, so the next day took 2 before eating dinner  and went to sleep super early.... it landed me in the hospital! My heart was rushing, I was throwing up, I was dizzy, and almost passed out! This is just a fancy b6!"


"I've been breaking out since I was 13 years old. I did a round of accutane (which had horrible side effects) and it only worked temporarily. I've always had cystic acne, chest, back, It destroyed my confidence. I tried every product on the market and finally decided that I would grow out of it. I never grew out of it. I'm 28 years old now, and I decided that enough was enough. I went to my dermatologist who tested my hormone levels and decided that spironolactone could benefit me. I cleared up dramatically within the first month of taking it, and only experience the skin purge for a couple of weeks. Only side effect was twitching. It was determined spiro was depleting my vitamins, and with supplements I'm back to normal and my skin is CLEAR"


"I took the depo shot twice, one shot every 3 months, right after highschool. While I did not get pregnant i gained 50 pounds. I had always been a tiny person. I was 100 pounds when I graduated and after that 6 months I was 150. No change in diet and I was actually more active. AFTER I decided to get off of it I was unable to lose the weight and I didn't get my period for 9 months and was not abe to get pregnant for a year and 9 months, which actually was failed (blighted ovum) and I finally am pregnant 2 and a half years later. All from 2 shots. My whole life I had very regular light periods.  After the shot they were random and fluctuated in flow from heavy to only spotting.  I would never recommend this birth control."


"First two weeks, arm was sensitive and painful. Could feel the implant but after two weeks,  I didn't notice it at all. But I have lost my sex drive, am moody and have had 7 months of spotting and bleeding. Have to constantly line my panties. Lighter periods. No weight gain. Had UTI recently but not sure if that's related. Hope it gets better."


"My pain, following 3 back surgeries and a badly arthritic knee, caused me to be taking increased amounts of opioids yet not relieving me of my pain enough so I could totally function.  4 days of being on Suboxone (8mg x 3 ) has given me the relief I have never had.  Thank you!!"


"I have always been moody. Sometimes more than other times.  My menstrual cycle, children, jobs, school, work, driving, husband, and everything  else not mentioned made me mad for no reason.  I hated the way I felt when I responded negatively  but couldn't do better.  This medicine allows me to finally be somewhat normal. I am excited  about all the things go above  now. They are full. Like I once had hoped"


"I had ParaGard put in on March 28 of this year. It is now October and I could not be more pleased with this birth control. After deciding that I no longer wanted to use the pill, I tried other options such as the arm implant and the patch, neither of which worked for me because they made me fat, emotional, and took away my sex drive. ParaGard gave me really bad cramps and heavy periods for the first two months. After that my cramps went away completely and I have not had them again since then. My periods have gotten lighter and lighter until they are now back to my normal flow. My sex drive is also now higher than ever before. I would recommend this to anyone that can bear through the cramps for the first few months."


"Epiduo was prescribed by my dermatologist and I have to say that it really works! I still get a pimple or two at times but nothing that I can't tolerate. I don't know how I can manage without it! Thank you epiduo :)"


"A life saver!  I was crying all the time, hot flashes, insomnia, night sweats. Everything blissfully went away pretty quickly after I started taking 0.5 dose in pill form. At first I noticed a bit of breast tenderness and headaches but after a week or two they were gone.  My breasts have filled out a bit which is a bonus! My only regret is that I didn't start this 5 years ago instead of suffering through it.  Wonderful stuff!"


"I was with a guy for a pretty long time and this one time the condom broke and he had came  inside...  slowly he pulled out and that's when we knew that it broke. Well at that given moment, I freaked out and then a lot things were going through my mind. But my partner was there to calm me down. We then rushed to our local CVS and purchased the Plan B Formula. I took it an hour later after the incident. After 3 or 5 days I started experiencing some kind of brown/reddish color coming out my vag which was one of the symptoms I experienced. I also experienced headaches,nausea & minor cramps. But nothing I couldn't take. At the end I got my period a day later from usual."


"I thought I was too far gone. I have Pure O - every second of every single day was torture. I didn't want to live any more, I couldn't with the obsessive thoughts that were so antithetical to who I was. Constantly I would tell myself who I was but the OCD would always trick me out of my logic; but OCD has your whole imagination at its disposal.  I got a lot worse before I got better on Sertraline: REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE AND STICK IT OUT. One day you'll feel like you've been punched and woken up from a bad dream. If I can do it when I was on the verge of suicide, you can too. I believe in you."


"I've read many people have been gaining weight from this drug.  This is why it is SO important you care about your health from day one and it should be a part of your lifestyle and regimen, no matter what.  This way, whatever the side effects are of the medicine, you're on top of your game and won't get hit as hard.

I've been on many bipolar medications which make you gain weight, but I barely noticed because I work out and eat very healthy.  It's of utter importance that you lay down a solid, healthy foundation before and during therapy.  The healthy lifestyle will also make the medicine work better.  It's common sense."


"I started Victoza later in 2013.  I am on Medicare, since I am a Senior Citizen and in Nov. of 2014 I was told I would have to pay $249 a month for it until January.  Not wanting to pay that much, I just quit using it for the last two months of 2014.  Initially, I had no side effects to the Victoza and had lost weight and the A1C went down to 6.8.  But now after starting the Victoza again since January, I am having those awful burps, to the point that I nearly get sick to my stomach.  Would it help if I took the shot at night instead of during the day?"


"I have had to use this product a lot more than I'd like to admit. Over the last year I have gone through about 6 boxes of 12 if not more.... works in about 2 minutes for me so it works almost instantly which is why I love them so much however they only clean out the lower section of your bowel and not all your bowels. Which is good and bad. For severe constipation I'd recommend also taking an oral medication as well

"


"I have been on this pill for over a year now and hate it. I used to be on an estrogen one but my dr said my blood pressure was a bit too high so she switched me (every other time I get my blood pressure checked it's completely normal). I have heavy periods which in my job where I can't just get up and go to the bathroom when I need sucks. I didn't have my period at all during the summer but then it came back with a vengeance. I have had it roughly every two weeks for the past 5 months. I also never know when it's going to start so I am wearing a pad more often than not now. I am going to be telling my dr to take me off this pill when I next go in."


"After 8 weeks on Lialda, it did not clear up the blood, still had abdomen tenderness, and caused me to have diarrhea. I did get a discount card which brought the cost down to $10. If you like this medicine, you should go to their website and see if you can get this card. I got it from my MD."


"Great for congestive heart failure."


"I have been on this birth control for 8 years now. I take it for acne, birth control, menstrual disorder premenstrual dysphoric disorder.  I love this birth control they tried to put me on something else and I said no! I love this BC and I want to stay on it. Regulated my periods, took away migraines, took away me throwing up whenever my period came, and I never gained weight from it. I recommend this BC to anyone."


"I have had very severe chronic constipation for over two years that has just seemed to get worse and worse over time.  I've tried Amitiza on a few occasions over the last couple years and each time has been a awful experience.  It works but it takes about 3 days and those 3 days are unbearable.  Horrible gas and bloating, headaches, cramps, nausea, not to mention the pain in my back and sides from the severe bloating.  I gave a friend some of my samples and it worked wonders for her, she had none of those side effects. Everyone is different, it's always worth a try."


"This medicine is a lifesaver! I have Lupus and have been having extreme hip and back pain lately. I have been on numerous medicines and am allergic to codeine, Vicodin, and Percocet so its difficult to find adequate pain relief without other side effects like nausea, vomiting, light-headedness. Nucynta does not give me a "high" feeling and I have not experienced nausea with this medicine. The only downside to this medicine is its expensive! I encourage people to call the company and apply for the savings card. I'm awaiting mine, and if it goes through you will pay no more than $25 a refill. Hope some others get relief with this medicine like me. Right now I could kiss my orthopedic surgeon for prescribing me Nucynta!"


"It causes side effects like headache, nausea."


"I took Contrave for approximately 3 weeks.  I did not lose any weight.  I felt uneasy the entire time.  Nauseous, lightheaded, vertigo symptoms and wobbly legs.   My mind said I was hungry/starving even as I was eating a meal.  I did not like the fact that you had to 'ramp-up' to four pills a day.  My experience was not good and I would not recommend it."


"Have been taking the delzicol for 7 weeks and still not working as does ASACOL. 700 dollars later, who do I complain to...I need Asacol after all. Has only calmed things, still unable to eat most things and see no future for me and delzicol."


"I first started latuda at 40mg and it had zero effect.  My dose was increased to 80mg and within two days, every single last bit of noise in my head disappeared completely.  My focus is excellent now and my life has literally changed because of this drug.  My energy is put into things that are important like a clean house and a clean body and I am so happy all the time now.  I can't believe how excellent this drug is and I am so happy I was given the right dose to help me live a better life.  I'm actually ready to face the world again and get off of disability and go back to work!  I CAN'T DESCRIBE HOW MUCH THIS DRUG HAS CHANGED MY LIFE POSITIVELY.  Complete 180 degree turnaround!"


"My father had a head injury 3 weeks back, had mild sub-arachnoid hemorrhage, no surgical intervention was required, was being treated conservatively. But he developed persistent hyponatremia, his serum sodium level gradually went down to 104 mEq/L. After a battery of investigations, it was diagnosed as SIADH. Despite all efforts to correct his serum sodium level, it was seesawing between 104 and 108. Strident fluid restriction and aggressive hypertonic saline therapy even baffled. Then we started Tab Demeclocycline 300 mg thrice daily and it magically started causing its much desired adverse effect of producing more watery and less saline urine on its second day! Kudos to this wonderful gut-sterilizer! My father is getting improved."


"I have taken Savella just under 2 years and it has helped my pain and anxiety levels much better than expected.  It has cause some weight gain, hot flashes and swelling but is far better than the alternative."


"I am taking Arava for rheumatoid arthritis and it's causing a terrible cough. Tessalon worked great and allowed me to sleep all night."


"Wow. It sure did the job.  No pregnancies because I lost my sex drive and became dry. I don't do any drugs nor smoke.  And I had mood swings that were insane.  Once, I got to the point were I couldn't go to sleep at night and went through my boyfriend's phone and accused him of cheating. So just please beware and if others are noticing symptoms, I hope they speak out because I didn't come to terms with it until I reached a scary point."


"It never lost potency been on it a long time It works everytime pefer this restoril to xanax"


"It's the best for pain and I had no problems at all for stomach or anything else."


"Funny"


"Wonderful for my fibromyalgia. It helps reduce pain and helps me get a solid nights sleep. I take 50mg 2 hours before bedtime. Recommend this highly."


"I got pregnant on the pill so I do not recommend unless you wanna get knocked up. Lol"


"Cipralex seemed to be my lifeline for the first 4 yrs....the last 4 years was another story. It seemed to have really assisted with my sluggish, tired and empty feelings. I actually felt so consumed with depression and anxiety and stress over weight-gain this last year. Now, against my doctors wishes I have weaned myself off 20mg in a month. I've asked her to help wean me off numerous times. Instead, I would be told its not the right time....ie: going through divorce, custody battle,  deaths in the family or financial hardships. So I put up my dukes and went for it. Mind you, she added Wellbutrin to my mornings 9 months ago. I am positive that it has helped with my withdrawal symptoms. A big cry baby...but I'm sure that will settle itself."


"I've been taking Sprintec for 3 months now. I have experienced some side affects. My hormones were unstable so my body had to adjust. When I start a new pack I notice I become sensitive and cry over anything. My periods are lighter. I have not gained weight. My breast have not gotten fuller. I notice I do get nauseous sometimes but rarely. But the beginning was horrible. This is the first birth control I've ever taken so my body was not used to the hormones and had to re-adjust (I'm guessing), I would have major mood swings, cry for everything and get really nauseous. Not sure how my boyfriend handled me when I first started taking the pills. But they are super effective and I rarely get mood swings."


"my experiecnce with the patches is that they work amazing if you get the right dose and the correct brand. The matrix patches are junk you are lucky if they stay on after 24 hrs if you take a shower and happen to have oily skin. Now the gel patches work extremely well - the adhesive for some reason is way better. I read over some comments also about what classifys 48 hr to 72hr and that would be your physician also if you really read the papers that come in your boxes of fentanyl you will notice that the pharmakinetics of the patch over the 72 hours the first 24 are ok then from 24-48 is peak working condition then they start to taper off and this is what you need to explain to your physcian show paperwork & pain diary hope that helped"


"Made me very sick to my stomach, couldn't eat anything without wanting to vomit.

Sedated too much to the point I didn't want to get out of bed all day.

Also gave me insomnia.

(30 mg)"


"I started taking Singular generic brand about a week ago when my allergies got really bad to the point of not being able to function.  I was constantly sneezing, running nose, congested at the same time and watering eyes.  I am on once a week allergy shots for the past 25 years, run the air filter and keep a clean house with hardwood floors.  I have been taking half a pill of Xyzsal for the past couple of years.  Now, I took the Singular with the Xyzsal and started having nightmares almost every night.  Before, I used to dream often, occasionally had nighmares, but not that often.  Now, I have nightmares every night instead of random dreams that I can remember them even when I wake up.  My allergies are still bad but tolerable."


"Works GREAT. Take it once a day and I'm done. Cost is outrageous though."


"As a former Firefighter who suffered a back injury 17 yrs ago. The surgeons said surgery would not help and that I should stay on pain medicines for relief. I've tried them all. Norco 10/325 has been the best. I have been able to get a job and hold it, which has done wonders for my self esteem. To be able to return to the work force and lead a relatively normal life. I can't do a lot of things but since being on Norco 10/325 for 4 years now I no longer suffer any depression and family and friends say I'm my old self again. I still suffer times where I have to slow way down but overall this medicine has been life changing for me."


"I was considered a light smoker, a pack every few days. I had regularily smoked for five years. I didn't think I would ever be able to quit. Chantix worked so well with blocking out the headaches, anxiety, loss of sleep, and all the moodiness that accompanies quitting. I took it for about two weeks total. I actually quit smoking around the 8th day. Pretty painless."


"I started Harvoni in September 2016 and as I started the second month of this medication I ended up in the ER with congestive heart failure. As to this date March 17 2017, I am still no better. I was healthy before this medication had no problems besides Hep C. Wish I would had never took the medication."


"My experience has been very positive: a complete elimination of sleep attacks, at least until the medication wears off (I take it at about 7 AM and usually around 2-3 PM I can tell it's worn off). When I first began the medication, I experienced fairly severe insomnia at night for a few days and suffered from headaches (generally dull, low-grade ones) for a couple of weeks. Those problems have long since ended and I have no trouble falling asleep at night.

My doctor suggested not taking the medication on weekends, when I do not have to work, which seems to have helped prevent it from losing any effectiveness. I am fortunate enough to have had no trouble getting my insurance to pay for Nuvigil. My cost is $27 for a 3 month supply by mail."


"I have been taking 75mg/day of Avapro for 2 months. It has been effective at lowering my blood pressure to 130/80 in the morning and 120/70 in the evening. The only side effect I have noticed is some mild, occasional heart burn. I had been on Atacand for several years before; I had to stop it because of dizziness. Then I was given Lisinopril; it made me cough and destroyed all sexual interest. I much prefer Avapro, it is more effective than the others and has milder side effects - for me."


"I used this for about 3 months and it jump started my healthy diet and exercise plan. I lost a totally of 60 pounds in 6 months and kept it off for four years. I just needed the extra help."


"I've recently stopped using Spiriva because I was worried about the side effects.  The final deciding factor was my optometrist telling me that I had high eye pressure (possibly a precursor to glaucoma).  I have also had red eyes ever since being on it.

Other symptoms since being on it are trouble urinating with force (not able to pee fast when in a hurry),  chest pains daily, muscle pains in front lower legs, constipation and losing my voice or hoarseness.

I value my sight above all else so I will make do with salbutamol instead.

Since quitting it two weeks ago my eye pressure is now normal again, my eyes are not red, the chest pains are gone, the hoarseness gone, and am gradually getting my bladder muscle control back."


"I had been smoking for 42 years. I have tried different ways to stop smoking and it seemed that neither one of them helped. I would always cheat and smoke one here and smoke one there. Chantix is the only medicine didn't help me quit smoking . When I was smoking I was smoking 2 to 2 1/2 packs a day. I can now stay with Chantix I have been smoke-free for nine years. Thank you Chantix"


"This worked great for me.  We went fishing on a small boat in the ocean for three days (going out each day) in some pretty choppy seas, and I never felt nauseous, nor did I get sleepy. I hate the drowsiness I get with Dramamine, so this was very welcomed.  One patch lasted for all three days, so it was economic, too.  The only challenge is ensuring the patch stays on during showers."


"My doctor has prescribed this medication for migraines. It works great if you take it at the onset of a migraine. If you have a full blown migraine, it may take several doses. All other migraine medications do not work on me. Stadol is the only pain reliever to help with the pain. Just make sure when you take it, you are some place you can lie down."


"I'm 38 years old and perimenopausal. I started this pill to regulate my horrific bleeding and cramping.  The first two months were AWESOME, but since that time I have been bleeding for six weeks straight.  My doctor advised that I skip the sugar pills and try a couple more weeks of the second pack and see if my cycle regulates. Into the second week of the second pack and I'm still currently bleeding and cramping and am stopping this medication today.  Also I gained 10 pounds,  feel "blue", randomly cry for no reason and have had extreme mood swings.  I would not recommend seasonique or any generic equivalent of this drug.  My next step is an ablation procedure.  : ("


"First day was not good at all. I felt paranoid, had a day-long headache, excessive thirst and dry mouth.  But, I did not crave my usual fast food. Day 2 was much better; push through until your body becomes accustomed.  Fabulous results and increased energy.  Also I am getting a caffeine detox which is very beneficial."


"I got this birth control thinking great no period for three years. Honestly I would rather have my period everyday for the rest of my life than have this thing in my arm still. At first it seemed fine I felt great and then a week or so went by and I was overthinking everything, became extremely stressed, and keep having anxiety attacks. I'll be fine for a few days at a time but then something small happens and I want to cry and yell at everyone. It has ruined my relationship and I feel crazy. I would not recommend this birth control. I get it out in a little over a week. Hopefully my mind can remain stable enough to make it til then without another crazy mood swing of depression. Also I feel like a pregnant lady craving food constantly."


"My son has been taking this for about 2 years and it has helped to decrease his hyperactivity. He had very adverse reactions to stimulant type medications."


"I bled for 7 weeks out of 2.5 months on Previfem. I also gained 7 pounds. I'd lose half of it during the placebo week, but it came back when I started the active pills again.

I threw out my 3rd pack halfway through the active pills. It's been 4 days, and I'm 0.3 pounds short of my old, happy weight. Granted, it was probably just water weight, but my self esteem really is affected by my weight."


"Threw up constantly on the fourth day of using this. Day two I already didn't feel well. I took off the patch on the fourth day because of all the vomiting and also I had a hard time breathing. Cold sweats, etc. I felt like I was dying. Horrible feeling. I don't recommend this."


"Had the worst upper respiratory infection I have ever had.  Took ambulance to hospital for first time in my life because I thought it was a heart attack.  Could barely breathe.  I had let it go for over 2 weeks and it had gotten that bad.  I have not been sick in over 12 years and never went to ER for an illness before.  I was prescribed Amox- Clav in addition to a steroid for inflammation.   Day 3 started to feel 60% better, Day 5 80%, Day 7 95% there.  No side effects, I do eat a good sized meal 20 minutes prior to taking it.  I never was so sick and I am very fortunate that I was given this medication with no side effects and was back at the office in 2 days after taking."


"I am 19 years old, and have tried all four of the most popular benzodiazepines for my social, general, and nighttime anxiety when several SSRI's failed: Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, and Valium. Klonopin made me angry and Xanax didn't last long for me. Ativan did zilch. Valium is like Xanax's effects with Klonopin's long duration! It's the only medication that I can take effectively with no side effects! I take 5 MG only as needed and have no urge to take more. It's mild, kicks in quick, and lasts long. I don't find it addictive at all! Sometimes the oldest medications are the best. Lifesaver!"


"Started using gel for "frozen toe". Had pain about 75% of the time ranging up to 7 or 8. Had difficulty putting on shoes due to bending of big toe. After using Voltaren gel 2-3 times a day, after just 2 days pain was greatly reduced. And if there is any pain, it's only about a level 3 or 4.  Have recently started using it on knees.  Seems to help but not as dramatically as toe.  I really like that fact that very little of the diclofenac goes systemic."


"*UPDATE* I have now been on Saxenda since Feb 19th and on March the 9th, I had lost a total of 12 lbs in 19 days!!! Now March the 13th Day (23 days on Saxenda) I am still at the 12 lbs weight loss.. but I am sure by Friday I will have lost at least 5 more lbs , I ate the most today that I have eaten since I started and that is 1116 calories and 95 carbs. This is still very good, I was just more hungry today than usual, I believe I will up my dose to 2.4 tonight, I have been rotating between 1.4 and 1.8. Look forward to giving more updates soon!! Also if your insurance does not cover it, you can go to the Saxenda web site and get a coupon, even if your insurance covers it, this coupon savings card will have you pay only 25$ a prescription!"


"I have two kids - both born vaginally. Needless to say, my cervix is used to being stretched. I decided on the paragard (due to it being hormone free and my pre-existing mental health problems) shortly after I gave birth a year ago, but it took me a year to overcome the horror stories.

I'm here to tell you that yesterday, I bit the bullet and got it done. It. was. easy. In in less than a minute. The little tube the IUD slides through to deploy into your uterus looks big and painful, but take 800mg Motrin before hand and you shouldn't feel anything more than a scrape and a pinch. I had a minuscule amount of spotting, and a day later I still have mild cramps, but it's nothing I can't handle. Highly recommended!!!"


"28 years old, smoked for 15 years around 20 a day, already had heart attack at 25 and tried to quit on patches etc that didn't work I've now been smoke free 60 days because of champix. Yes I have had mood swings and some nights very strange dreams but I
 would recommend champix to anyone that wants to quit."


"50 yo and 1st time taking indomethacin for a bone infection, works great, strong fast acting, sometimes it leaves me with a buzzed sleepy feeling which I enjoyed. The whole body ACHE /PAIN is gone.  My wife took one and she said her knee pain was gone."


"I have taken plan b twice in my life. The first time I took it, it was just two or three days after my period had ended and then five days later I started my period again. I was a little concerned at first thinking there's no way it could have made me start that early. Two periods within three weeks is crazy. So then the month went on and I started worrying if that really was my period, but in the end it just reset my cycle. The most recent time, I had sex on day 10 of my cycle and took the pill about 11 hours later. 6 days have passed since then and I'm having some bleeding and bad cramping. It's not normal period bleeding for me but it's more than just spotting. I'm waiting now to see if this is my period or just bleeding side effects."


"I've been on Sprintec for a few months now, and for the most part I find it to be a pretty decent birth control pill after having tried a few other brands previously. My biggest issue with Sprintec is that is has caused my skin to become more irritated and I have started to have issues with break-outs, which is something I have NEVER had an issue with before and I always had clear skin in the past. This is frustrating, but something that I can manage as the break-outs aren't too awful at this time. I thankfully haven't noticed any kind of significant weight gain or mood change...although at times I may tend to be slightly more overly-emotional, but it isn't severe like it was in the case of some other medications."


"AMAZING, AMAZING.
Ditch the antibiotics and start this treatment. Your skin will get worse over about 4 weeks before it gets better. I have pustular rosacea so it has certainly helped the bumps and lumps (I also use it as a spot treatment for bad ones on top of the once daily application) I also suggest researching "Oregano Oil" for rosacea - I'm taking this internally at the same time - but have got rid of the antibiotics after 10 months of use - hooray!"


"I started getting fever blister in my late 20's when I was on chemotherapy. They were usually in my nose and I just suffered through. I few years ago I had a huge cold sore on my lip that caused my lip to literally swell to my nose. I went to the doctor and started on Valtrex, absolutely amazing I never get them anymore. It was to late for this horrible episode but now when I feel an out break I start the tablets 2,000mg 2x day. I have recently started feeling a lot of tingling and itching and numbness across the nerve path after is take the medication. I tell my husband it is like the drug is fighting the virus on the nerve has anyone else experienced this weird side effect?"


"I had the implanon after my first child. Then took it out, got pregnant with my second & back in a couple weeks after birth. I love it! Personally, it works great for me. I don't have bad side affects w/ it & my husband and I never use other forms of contraception & no scares. My period is still regular. I've gained weight but I'm also not the healthiest eater lol. My insurance covered it both for insertion & removal! & I'll definately keep using it. Its already in your arm so you don't have to remember specific times like with the pill. Or have rejections like w/ the IUDs"


"I used Epiduo for about 3 weeks, the reason why I started using it is because I had small little dots on the sides of my face. The first couple of days my face felt like it was burning and it went so red. It caused so much acne on my face! Now I have a lot of big pimples on my face which scar.
I have used a few acne creams but this one has been the worst by far."


"For two years urologists tried six different pill-form medications to try to help me with my 24/7 discomfort, pain, bladder spasms and need to use the bathroom a dozen or more times daily. It was horror, and nothing came close to helping until I was finally given the Oxytrol patch. Over a period of less than one week, it was as if my life was given back to me. Period. I was able to visit places without stopping to "go" continually; again we enjoyed marital intimacy; and I no longer went sleepless or suffered terrible pain-- or a single side-effect. Thank you for your joint efforts in the launch of this medication. You have given many back a Life. I will be glad to boast your praises anytime, anywhere--for free."


"Got this for my really bad migraines about 10 years ago after nothing else worked - an absolute miracle drug"


"I used to have cold sores all the time when I was a child, either when exposed to too much cold or when exposed to too much heat. Finally, I found a doctor who gave me a prescription (just a few years ago, I'm already an adult) and the Doctor prescribed Zovirax 200 mg 5x a day for 5 days. When I am able to take the medicine as soon as I feel the blister forming, the blister will only last for a day; it will grow and then burst and crust over within twenty four hours, so I've never really had to take the medication for more than 2-3 days. Very thankful for this medicine."


"I have been using Ziana for about nine months.  I will admit I was extremely frustrated in the beginning because my face was seemed to be worse than it was before.  But nine months later, my face is acne free. I will occasionally get a tiny tiny pimple but it will usually go away in a day or two.  My confidence is back where it needs to be and all the wait was frustrating, it was worth it."


"I got the Nexplanon in January of this year (2015). I have been bleeding ever since-8 months later. I've also been experiencing some pretty bad acne, which I never had a problem with previously.  Exhausted all of the time. Needless to say it's been a terrible experience."
