"All my life I have had severe acne... I've probably tried any and every cream, drug, wash, etc. that is out there and nothing has ever worked.  So when I got engaged two summers ago I decided to go ahead and start birth control about 6 months before the wedding to see if THAT would work because I'd heard it did.  Well Ocella has DEFINITELY eliminated my acne, that part has been wonderful.  But I've experienced a huge decrease in my sex drive and more bothersome than that, I have been getting migraines at least three times a week regularly since I started taking it.  Also, I have learned now that it is geared more toward treating PMDD which I don't have and therefore is a higher dose of hormones which I don't need."


"This gel is great BUT you have to give it time. I went on it and after four months my acne only cleared a little but then bam! After the next month everything was great and then it's just all good from there. No random pimples popping up, just time for my scars to fade. I love it. And if you're a patient person who wants something gentle and not scary for their face, Atralin is it."


"I have had undiagnosed RLS for years and had huge horse pills Gralise to take and so many of them with a high fat meal which made me gain weight.  Horizant is so much better just one pill at dinner time and I get my rest. Glad Dr explained to me that each 600mg tablet is actually equivalent to  313mg Gabapentin and not to break it but swallow whole with food."


"I have been taking this for 3  months now and I feel we are getting somewhere.  I am taking 15 mg in the morning and 15 mg at 1pm.  I feel I could have the dose increased as I have only one side effect which is dry mouth.  No decreased appetite and no jitters.  I have decreased my coffee in take and am much calmer than I have been in years.  Before I had trouble with focus and gnatting about.  I know we are getting close to where I should be.  I am 44 and have suffered too long and so has my children, boss, friends, etc."


"On Effexor for 14 years.  150 milligrams daily of the IR not the XR so I was taking 75mg 2 times per day.  In retrospect, the medicine worked for me for about a year and the other 13 were just maintenance years.  I also found since titrating from 150mg down to 9.75 mg that I feel human again.  Effexor solved zero problems for me and it simply numbed me to feeling strong emotion.  I also dropped 36 pounds since coming off of this medicine and feel a heck of a lot better.  I have been titrating since July of 2015 and my last titration to zero will be in 2 weeks.  As stated before, this stuff doesn't solve problems, it just numbs human emotion.  Me, like many other folks need to learn how to accept our emotions.  The answer isn't always a drug"


"I was taking FORXIGA for more then 3 months and my blood sugar after any meal was always around
180 -200. I was not happy, so I change doctor. She prescribed me JUNAMET, which I took for the first time this morning, after breakfast and my blood sugar is 126.

I'm happy."

"Well I for one do not know what the big hullabaloo was/is about drinking the stuff..no offense to anyone but I've had worse tap water !! I did put the meds in the fridge but kept my drinking water at room temp.1st dose shot the stuff right down no problem didn't breathe thru nose.. the water - it's just 32 oz of water for pete's sake ! some cramping and nausea 3 hrs all done went to sleep next am-re.2nd dose -much easier took abt 2 1/2 hrs than drank some gatorade

I would never use a straw that just prolongs the agony for those who are so freaked out abt the taste !!! Drink it right done and get it over with !!! I stayed in the bathroom the whole time w/my laptop wouldn't think of getting more than 5' from toilet !  My first colonoscopy-65y"


"I've been on pain meds to treat very serious hip and moderate back issues for 15 years, ~8 years 24/7 and 365 days of the year on them. I've taken literally everything: morphine, fentanyl, opana, ketamine, etc and due to moving I had to find a new pain doc and he asked me to try suboxone. I've been on a 24mg/day dose for 3 days and it treats my pain 75% as well as the previous methadone/oxy combo I took before this. It makes me feel very out of it, have a hard time thinking clearly, get frequent headaches, have no appetite, no urge to use bathroom (#1 or 2, even when I need to), and can go from zero to super irritable in an instant. Overall not working well.

PS: A medical condition requiring opiates means you're DEPENDENT not ADDICTED! Big difference folks!"


"I got my Mirena put in today at my 6 weeks checkup for my C-section and I must say I was terrified at first and was almost reconsidering after every thing bad I have read and searched up on and all the negative comments but I knew the pill wouldn't work for me and I wanted something with a low hormone dose so Mirena was my only option. I didn't feel anything painful whatsoever, the worst part of everything was the speculum and that's like a pap discomfort. It didn't hurt when they measured my cervix, inserted the Mirena, cut the strings. I mean I felt no pain at all and I didn't start cramping until about 10 min. after it was all done. So please don't change your mind just because of horror stories."


"So..  I had sex for the first time ever with my boyfriend .... And I'm on the nuvaring... He didn't have any protection.. But we thought that it would be OK... Because of the birth control.. Well..... I'm pregnant."


"My 9 year old daughter has been on this for about 2 months.  We switched from Adderall XR due to severe weight loss.  This seems to work much better and also does not affect her personality like Adderall.   She has some loss of appetite but not as bad.   Yesterday I forgot to give the medication to her and she had a severe crying spell last night and did not know why.  I believe she may have been experiencing withdrawal symptoms.  She is taking 40 mg.   I may switch back to 30mg.  Be aware that you may not be able to stop this medication abruptly if on it for a long time."


"I was on Restasis (was on it for 8 months) and that not do too much so I heard about Xiidra and my Dr. agreed to have me try it.  I have a very severe case of dry eye to a degree that it has affected my life so I am willing to try anything. I also tried Lipiflow and that did absolutely nothing due to my Meibomian glands being so thick and blocked-waste of money!  So far I have only been on Xiidra for 6 days and both of my eyes are starting to feel lubricated!  If this continues to work and improve my eyes, OMG I will be so thrilled.. I gave it an 8 only because it's just been 6 days so I want to see if my eyes improve even more.  But I think that is a pretty good start!  Very happy so far that I have tried it!"


"Saved my life. I had panic attacks and didn't know it. I lived in CA where I was diagnosed by a psychiatrist. My anxiety and panic attacks also raise my blood pressure somewhat high. Unfortunately, I moved to WA and I had difficulty finding a doctor who would continue my medical dosage of it at all. I just found a doctor now who will prescribe it."


"I am a 32 year old male, 6'2" 318 before I started taking Adipex.  I was a college football player, so I know how to diet and exercise.  However after having a few kids involved in EVERYTHING, a good job, and a wife that is an incredible cook, I packed on the LBS!  Adipex has given me the energy to hit the gym, and stay involved once I get home too, no crash and burn like a lot of those "energy supplements".  I do get dry mouth everyday. The first week or so I would almost forget to eat.  You have to force yourself to eat, so if your going to do that you might as well eat healthy.  I am working out 4 times a week for an hour at time.  If I had to guess I am down about 20lbs, I go back to the doctor next week for a weigh in and refill."


"I've been taking this for almost two weeks now. I chose this form of bc because I am fully breastfeeding. I haven't seen any changes in my breastmilk. The third day on this, I was feeling a bit nauseous for a couple hours. I had a minor headache the first couple of days. I haven't had those problems anymore. A week into taking the pill, I started spotting. Then today my period is very heavy and watery. But its alot! (Sorry if I'm too graphic, I just want to be specific for anyone that might want to look up reviews about this bc). I'm really hoping this heavy period goes away. I'm going to give it a couple more days."


"I was diagnosed with pan UC 2 years ago. My doctor gave me different medication that didn't work for me and made me worse. I lost 20 pounds in two weeks and didn't eat or drink anything because I would go to the bathroom ten times a day.  My doctor finally recommended remicade,  symptoms went down and a year later I've started flaring up again. They increased dosage and I get it every month now. But while I'm writing this my flare ups started again and it's been two weeks of bleeding and my doctor is on vacation. I don't know to do next, I don't want to have surgery."


"Been suffering with anxiety since Jan this year, tried natural products,CBT also citalopram. Citalopram made me worse, sick, crying just feeling awful. Doctor suggested Sertraline to which I was very nervous to try, started 25mg for one week then increased to 50mg, no side effects at all. Day 18 on 50mg feel more myself, feeling better daily. My advice don't read any negative reviews only the positive, give them a go. Def working for me."


"I thought at first taking thsi was going to help me mellow out with my severe PMDD.  My period pretty much disappeared after 2 months, but I began having bad anxiety, tired and hungry all the time, bloated and swollen.  My hair also began falling out more than usual.  I stopped it about a week ago, and have so much more energy and feel bacl on track.  I'm not sure what my periods are going to be like now, but the pills side effects are not worth it to me."


"I got the implant March 2016. The insertion They numb the skin with lidocaine and then you don't feel the insertion at all. After it was bruised and sore for a week when touched. A month after I started bleeding very heavy and clots, lots of bad cramps and nausea. That period lasted 18 days all very heavy my doctor said it's normal So I just waited it out. Then no bleeding for about 8 weeks and 2 days after my gastric bypass surgery I started spotting and then it went from heavy to light flow different every day. That went on for 45 days. Then had a biopsy to be sure it was the implant causing the issue. Normal yay! Now back to heavy bleeding 1 week after that stopped. Doc said give it 6 months so I'm waiting."


"Have been on blisovi Fe 1/20 pill for 2-3 years. I had ups and downs on it, but mostly downs. Had very bad anxiety, mood swings, and low sex drive/libido. Now most recently, have been experiencing bad dryness making sex more unpleasurable. Worked at preventing pregnancy though."


"Last week I had an old fashioned way of Gallblabber removal (20+ previous surgeries had left behind to many adhesions for a Laproscopic removal).
The .5 mg Dilaudid I was given was much better than the Morphine in past surgeries.  Issue:  because I am a middle class lady with insurance seeing a pain management specialist for chronic pain - I was labeled a druggie!!  I was given .5 to 1 mg for my ride home.  I suffered horribly in pain.  .5 is 1/8 the normal dose for most coming out of surgery.  My previous physician (decades) had retired.  He believed NO patient should suffer unnecessarily after surgery!  Not these physicians and not this poor excuse for a hospital."


"Started taking qysmia in October of 2014 I'm 5'1" weight was 218 45 years old

Took the 7.5 dose for 8 months

Changed my eating habit and exercised more my biggest thing was giving up soda but it needed to be gone as of May 2015 my weight was 135. I was very pleased but after a year I see the weight creeping back on.. I'm back on the pills as of August 2016 lets hope I can keep it off this time. oh and the only side effect I had was constipation"


"I'm 22, no kids and I just got the Skyla inserted yesterday 2/4/16. I read all these horror stories online and made myself extremely nervous! The whole experience took about 15min from signing in to waiting my turn to the actual insertion to walking out the door. The insertion was very painful but lasted only 30secs! I cramped all day after but nothing ibufrofen couldn't help. I spotted for a few hours. Used a heating pad to help with the cramps. I switched to skyla from depo and I'm hoping I made the right choice. Only on day two so I will update when I got back for my follow up."


"I have taken this medicine since it first came out.  I felt the tingle of a new sore the other day and bought a bottle of Abreva (this bottle has a pump to supply the medication which is more liquidish).  After 2 days of use I realized that no only had the Abreva NOT worked, my cold sore had spread to 3 times the original size and was still contagious (tingly and sore).  I mentioned this to my husband who said we had an older squeeze tube of Abreva (paste consistency) in his bathroom and he suggested I try that instead.  After 12 hours, 2 applications, the cold sore is already getting better.  My guess is that the makers of Abreva have watered down the active ingredient so much that it is no longer effective so they make more money."


"I have type 2 diabetes and I have had 2 emergency discectomy's. I was having major erectile dysfunction issues. Long story short, went to doc. He gave me 'truth Serum" injection (my word for EDEX), because he had to measure both flaccid( no problem there) and erect, hence the "serum".  Told me to go into waiting room. Not fully knowing what was about to happen, it felt like the incredible hulk had managed to get into my shorts. It was amazing. Not only was I alive, ALIVE!! I honestly felt 18 again ( 48 currently)."


"As a Medic in the US Army, I see a lot of injuries. I give Toradol IM for most severe acute pain. Toradol is one of the best because of it's versatility; dosage, administration techniques, etc. Plus, it's an NSAID, not a narcotic, so there's a lower probability of addiction!"


"I've had a few UTIs recently and the antibiotics has worked every time but this time I was prescribed Macrobid and after one pill I felt pretty horrendous. The symptoms of my UTI went away but it was replaced with really scary symptoms. I took the second pill not thinking it was side effects considering I've never had a bad experience with an antibiotic but woke up during the night feeling like my breathing was so heavy I wasn't sure if I'd need to go to hospital. The headache was unreal, I ached all over and walked about feeling like I was going to fall down any minute and like I was drunk or something. Called the doctor who told me to get an antihistamine and not take another. I felt poisoned! Still not fully recovered."


"My Dr gave me this medication 10 mg to help get rid of muscle spasms in my upper thighs at night , I have been taking one at night no side effects that I can see seems to help muscle spasms was getting them nightly now I get them  a few time a year..but I'm afraid of long time use,"


"April 16, 2009. I have been taking phentermine for a month. When I first started to take this pill I weighed 220lbs and today I weighed in at 200lbs. This pill is the best working diet pill I have tried and I am only taking a phentermine 15.7mg. If you really want to lose weight try this pill. The only side effect I had was cotton mouth but it doesn't bother at all."


"I have been on all sorts of meds. Wellbutrin was beautiful but my throat swelled up and I broke out in hives. They  have tried lithium (scary rashes that took 4 months to clear) some other ones that made me worse or rashes. Latuda is the first that has been close to the awesomeness of Wellbutrin. I have more energy, eat less, fog like state of not fully "being there" is gone. I feel like a different person. The first week was nauseating but that went away and lasted a half hour at a time. When I bumped up to 40mg the nausea came back. My kidneys seem to be hurting but I am going with a wait and see if that goes away as well. I do not want to be taken off. Meds are hard to find that work."


"I had some weird side effects while on this medication. I experienced gout in one ankle then I had a tooth abscess then I had a sinus infection and then tooth pain. Not sure if these things were actually side effects of Axiron or just a coincidence. I felt incredible in between the side effects though and slept better and had more energy. Not sure if I will continue taking it."


"My sig other was being given roxy 30s  daily by his friend and partner at work. His wife and he were both prescribed 180 a mo. At first my man was flying he worked 8-18hrs a day  on call for weeks at a time on top of his 40-60hr schedule. it was insane. Then his friend started smoking them and didn't have the extras very much anymore. This is where HELL came into our life. My man was addicted no script. He was miserable sick and in fear of the awful sickness that loomed constantly. He was mean. They both deteriated and lost their jobs eventually. It ripped our family apart. When my guy  was let go he payday loans so deep they took his entire paycheck. His friend died on his bathroom floor last year. Our family was torn apart."


"My doctor prescribed me to try this pill as my first time in birth control. Initially I spotted for a good two weeks and when I did get my period it lasted few days and was into the next month of pills already. Side affects I've noticed though is I have not felt good, and as I already suffer from anxiety and depression this made it a million times worse. I don't necessarily recommend this pill but that's just from my results of taking it the last two months"


"This medication does work. I had been through a lot of stress at work for 3 years and finally decided to start taking 50 mg of sertraline. I didn't have any side effects and within two weeks I noticed that I am finally calm and "happy". Nothing bothered me anymore. In a month after I started taking the medication I was laid off. I didn't even cry. It was a shock though so I checked with my doc and she advised to increase the dose to 75 mg. I was taking it for about three months and started feeling emotionally numb and it seemed that the med stopped working. Also my hands/fingers were "falling asleep" at night and from holding an iPhone for more than 2-3 min. They still do. I am on 150 mg and my mood is fine. its been 13 months altogether."


"I was prescribed this for abdominal pain after having a baby. Keep in mind I have a very high pain tolerance, but this helped me a lot. I was in a pretty good amount of pain, and although it didn't take away all the pain, I was able to get up and take care of my newborn and 3 year old toddler. Also I have been breastfeeding and sometimes my newborn vomits. I'm not sure if it's the medicine or that she has just been drinking too fast"


"Before I started taking this I was very easy going and rarely let little things get to me. As soon as I started taking it I got horrible mood swings, which have continued on and off ever since (I give my boyfriend all the credit in the world for putting up with it). Also immediately started gaining weight, about 30 lbs until I basically started starving myself. Plus my breasts grew from about a C to a DD and starting to feel saggy, which wreaks all kind of havoc on my back and stomach muscles. My periods have been very heavy and previous were always very light. It seems like the only days I'm not bloated are when I take the placebos. I only rated as high as I did because I haven't gotten pregnant :p (yet)"


"I've been taking trintellix for 3 months now. My doctor gave me samples for 2 1/2 months to try it out. It worked for me. No side effects, or nausea like some people have reported. At first my insurance denied coverage but after an appeal, I was covered. When I picked up my script it was 470$ I do feel a little extra sleepy at times, could be a side effect. But other than that I feel pretty good. However I still am not on anything for anxiety because they stopped giving benzos. I do take lamictal at night for my mood, but it's not enough. After trying at least 10 meds, I am pretty happy with this one."


"My doctor said the pearls did not work for her but other people said they work great. I tried them and in 20 min my cough was gone!! I see they don't work for everyone but they worked for me!"


"3 1/2 years now on Disulfarim.  I'm a "dry drunk."  Didn't do AA Steps. Don't believe in higher power. I'd love to drop drink with my buddies. But haven't since July 2013. Wife drops 500mg tablet into my mouth each morning. Can't drink for 15 days. If 250mg ain't working, double dosage to 500mg it will drop you  to your knees if you drink.

Allows my wife to send me out on weekends with my buddies knowing I won't relapse. Alcoholics are weak about stopping and restarting. Disulfarim will solve that.

Sexual problems are B.S.  I'm 53 and diagnosed hyper sexual. No performance problems at all. You don't think being hammered affects sexual performance. Also, my Doc says I can take forever. I will."


"I don't have any chronic problems. Last weekend I hurt my neck when cleaning the chicken coop and I was in agony for 2 days. Could not sit or lie down without unbearable pain in my neck and left shoulder blade. Went to my chiropractor 2 days in a row. Finally saw my doctor and he gave me Robaxin. What a relief! It stops the muscle tension completely for 4-6 hours. I will use it for a few days along with resting and warm epsom salt baths to be able to continue with my daily life. No side effects for me. Only used it one day."


"I have suffered from severe depression most of my life (I am 58) 20 yrs ago I was put on Ritalin.  It changed my outlook and life virtually overnight.  In these 20 years I also took a variety of antidepressants.  None very effective.  Psychotherapy and Ritalin were together the cornerstone of my care and made a normal life possible."


"At first before getting the Nexplanon I read horror stories online. But then I was reminded that people that usually don't have good experiences will share their stories more than those that had good experiences. I got this December 2015. So I've had it for about two months as of now. The insertion process was very fast and it didn't hurt very much. The most painful part was the numbing needle. The pain started after. It took me about a month for the bruise to go away in my arm and have no more pain in the site. After getting it inserted I did get headaches but they wouldn't last very long. Aspirin did the trick. I had my period for two weeks and that was it. I would recommend this for sure to anyone that wants long time effectiveness!"


"I'm getting older and my hormones are changing, (I'm 28) but being on TriNessa this time around, my breasts have been sore for 2 weeks, and my normally clear skin has now turned into a breeding ground for bright red painful acne cysts.  I've only been on it for 1 month, but I'm going to give it a couple more months.  On the bright side, I'm not pregnant."


"I have tried many of the other brands.  Nostrilia works much better for me than the more expensive other brands."


"Cymbalta/Duloxatine is evil. I was prescribed it for fibromyalgia. I have had jaw pain and stiffness, 50 lb weight gain (very uncharacteristic, for me, binge eating), leg pain, muscle pain and twitching, lung fullness and coughing, high blood pressure, blurred vision, chest pain, unsteady gait, shortness of breath. My Dr refused to accept Cymbalta/Duloxatine as a reason for symptoms and was upset with me. She increased dosage from 30mg to 60mg to 90mg in 6 months. My health kept deteriorating. She wanted me to do a sleep study, saying I must not be sleeping/breathing well. I am currently looking for another Dr and awaiting Cymbalta/Duloxatine in a bead form (instead of the 6 pills in mine) so I can taper off at a 5% or less rate."


"I had/having a horrible time with this medication. Currently trying to wean off with my MDs help. I've had every listed side effect and subsequent health problems that required expensive work ups. Most dramatically I developed vertigo and severe headaches after being on the med for about 3-4 months. Vertigo was debilitating and required time off of work and multiple doctor appointments to rule out other conditions.  I also had electrical zings and numbness and tingling down my body. The weaning has been the most problematic causing these awful side effects to worsen. I'm a registered nurse and I would never recommend this drug to anybody. I did not feel any benefits for my depression."


"It's great. I get songs in my head or find myself humming, and that hasn't happened for a long time. More random positive thoughts too. And much less of the bad ones. I sometimes feel down, but it's not often and I think unavoidable. The side affect I notice is phases of vivid bad dreams. More nightmares and more stand that are stressful and occupy my mind too much, which makes me feel less rested."


"After 12 days of use there was no change in my pain."


"I am a double amputee with both hips totally replaced. Degenerative arthritis was the reason for the replacements. I am 64 and oxycodone 10mg. three times daily returned my life to me after 11 surgeries. Four months ago, my PCD (primary care doctor said he could no longer prescribe them. I have been in a wheelchair since the removal. Being in a nursing facility was my only option. I get to see a pain management doctor soon and hope I can get my meds back, along with my life."


"I've had this since March of 2010 and at first it was great. I had a period maybe every other month sometimes they would last for a week or a little longer sometimes they would be shorter. Now after 2 years Ive been bleeding for about a month and it is heavy. No pregnancies but I feel like I am. I've had crazy mood swings, sometimes I'm super hungry and sometimes I can't eat and I feel like I'm always tired. Thinking about taking it out"

"I've been on this for about 6 months and the first few months were great. I felt no difference after switching from a different pill. The last few months on the other hand have been terrible! I've been so moody (cry at the drop of a hat, always mad and irritated) and I've been having terrible cravings. I have also experienced in between periods spotting and general discomfort in my body."


"One application on alternating days in conjunction with fluocinonide topical for two weeks. After bath and thorough foot scrub, apply Rea Lo or fluocinonide first, then regular lotion (I use Vanicream), then occlude with wet wrap therapy method (saran wrap was suggested as alternative, but I found wet wrap much more comfortable to sleep with: put damp socks on over treated feet, then dry socks over damp socks to keep). Great improvement early on, I expect improvement continued, but was less evident in second week. Treatment completed until eczema flares up again. Also helped hands substantially, even though I used less intensive application."


"Reading all of these reviews I was a bit scared that I was gonna experience what these ladies have but I must say I was very fortunate not to feel like my vag was being burned off. Perhaps the burning correlates with the severity of the infection? Idk but I did feel a slight burn but nothing crazy, I applied it at night and when I woke up ,my genitals were less swollen. I'm still itchy but not as itchy as before I started monistat. It's not an immediate cure, I will say that. So have patience please and if u can go to the drs instead ,please do so. That would of been my choice but lucky me I got it on a Friday and my drs office is closed so here I am. But I feel better and I can't wait to see how it completely heals in a few days."


"I had COPD with chest pain, also I had shoulder pain due to lifting heavy objects last year. I had started prednisone 20mg x 2 two days back. I shall take it for 5 days. I felt much better on on second day only. Today is third day and I am feeling much better. My COPD symptoms improved very much. Also reduced swelling in my shoulder magically. I had not taken it for shoulder pain but it improved very much. Now I can raise my hand 90 degree which was impossible two days back.
My breathless due to smoking related COPD is getting cured. improved upto 60%. Three more days to go, I shall update you."


"This is the most uncomfortable experience of my life. I put it on before bed and ended up staying up till 3 am. More burning and irritation than before medication. So terrible. I suggest oral pills. Fuck this"


"I have had cold sores since I was a baby. People without this simplex don't understand and are often quite cruel. I have accumalated 30 years worth of inventing new ways to hide my face, and unbelievable lies to explain the sores away. I had tried every method of over the counter medication and ointments to no avail, and every homeopathic trick in the book. Not anymore. The claims are true... Abreva changed everything 2 years ago. You MUST apply the medication at the very first sign of warmth and tingling or it will not work as described. If you wait for full blown bubbly blisters you will not have the optimal outcome. I had the tell tale tingle yesterday, bought a tube of Abreva within the hour, and today it's dormant and invisible."


"I have had my nexplanon for about four months now and I am so happy I got this! The insertion was bearable and I got some breakouts the first week or so but it wasn't too bad. So far my period has been pretty much regular, I  have a lighter flow which is great and I get fewer cramps. It still lasts about 5-6 days but I'm not complaining. I haven't had any spotting in between periods. Also, I never had a history of having headaches but after getting it I do get a few headaches here and there that last 5 minutes but nothing bad. I was nervous because of all these bad reviews, everyone is different but just give it a try, please. So far I am really happy I got it and it could work out for you like it did for me!"


"Qvar works for me...However, for the third time my inhaler quit working before I used it 120 times. A year ago first failure, the inhaler quit working with 12 doses left in it.  Second failure 7 months ago, with 15 doses left. Today my inhaler quit at 17 doses.  I clean my inhaler as instructed.   I cleaned them each time they failed. No help. Cannot find an email address for the manufacturer. They owe me a third off on my next inhaler. That is more than $45.00.  Will complain to my insurance company and their pharmacy"


"Ive been on it for a week now, since switching from metformin I've noticed no more aches and pains and have been able to workout since the 2nd day of changed! love this Synjardy so far using samples so have no idea on price and insurance but ill deal w that when it comes to it."


"My dr put me straight on Desfax/Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) instead of Lexapro hoping that the inhibition of norepinephrine reuptake in addition to the SRI would help with energy and motivation. It was an easy swap, didn't need to ween off lexapro, and didn't get any side effects from stopping lexapro or starting pristiq from memory. The first 4 weeks or so felt relatively steady (placebo effect) then out of nowhere had vivid nightmares, snappy/irritated mood out of nowhere (this was new to me I'm not usually that kind of person),I had dangerous/impulsive behaviours, and then it got even worse and it felt like the depression came back in full swing with horrible low moods and crying. No more pristiq.
Now to try a Bupropion & Valdoxen combo."


"SW: 182 CW: 182 GW: 135 (I'm 5'1"). This is only day 2 for me, so it's too early for me to have a meaningful rating. On day 1, I drank a lot of water and that seemed to keep the nausea away. However, I felt sort of "tipsy" all day and had to take a nap in the afternoon. I had more nausea today, but think that was, in part, because I drank coffee. More water, a Bonine tablet, and I'm okay. Still feeling a little tipsy, though, and had to have a nap again. Thank goodness it's the weekend, but I'm back at work tomorrow and there will be no napping. I'm supposed to stay on this dose for a week and I have no desire to rush it. Oh--and my cravings are gone, but I have felt hungry. But it's true hunger, not my usual eating to relieve boredom."


"I had this inserted at my 6 week check up on 9/18/17. I am 20 with one baby. I have a tilted uterus as well. I took two Advil about an hour before my appointment. I only felt slight cramping a few times during insertion. It didn't hurt, it was just uncomfortable. I have had period cramps that were worse and after giving birth, it was nothing. I had light spotting for the first couple of days after insertion. I just started to bleed very very lightly today with very mild cramping so I'm waiting to see if it is my period. My strings need trimmed back more due to hurting my boyfriend during sex. Overall I love it though."


"Treatment for Restless Legs Syndrome - I was recently diagnosed with RLS (a condition I thought to be psychosomatic until I got it - it's real!) I thought my wife and I were going to have to sleep in separate beds due to my tossing, turning, stretching, etc. to get relief.  From the first dose of Skelaxin the problem was eliminated.  It's a wonder-drug in my personal opinion."


Amlodipine / hydrochlorothiazide / olmesartan

"I tried more hypertension medicines than I can count. They all had the undesirable side effect of a mental fogginess. Tribenzor does not have this side effect and has my blood pressure totally under control. I have no lack of mental clarity related to the medicine.

The only side effect is very intense dreams. Not necessarily pleasant or unpleasant, just intense."


"this drug caused incredible severe nosebleeds that landed me in the hospital, to the point where my bathroom looked like a crime scene.  Had to miss work because of the side effect of the drug.   I had to use two inhalers, one was daily and one was a rescue inhaler due to severe shortness of breath.  This drug should not be on the market, it is dangerous!"


"I'd been taking Cymbalta for about 2 years when I decided that I didn't want to pay $30/mo anymore, so I decided that I would wean myself off. I tried and I started getting the brain zaps, like lightening in my head. So I started back, slowly I just started missing a dose here and there until I was able to stop them without the side effects. I've been off for several months now and I've noticed that I've been in more pain and everything that was hurting me before has compounded. So needless to say I'm starting them back. Appears that I'm not going to be able to do without it."


"Tried a sample from my dermatologist. Worked wonders on the redness on one cheek. My insurance doesn't cover it and it is really expensive. If I could buy a 50 gm tube for $200 I would do it ASAP."


"Just finished my first bottle (30 days) of Stribild.  It is my first HIV medicine.  Before starting my viral load was almost 500,000 and CD4 around 350.  After 30 days (actually less because I had the blood draw a week ago), I just found out today that my viral load is already down to 101 and my CD4 is 450!  I've also experienced no side effects, aside from a mild headache in the morning once or twice, which I've attributed to not drinking enough water. I couldn't be happier."


"Just been on lexapro for 14 days getting anxious for complete cycle of lexapro for or system. So far. No real problem with side effects. Great med so far,"


"Hair loss and thinning good readings with this drug but not come off it due to hair loss. I did urinate a lot and it did smell very sweet."


"I was prescribed flexeril for muscle spasms after spraining my lower back muscles while lifting a TV by myself. It was very helpful as a part of my recovery."


"I went to Urgent Care Center today for a sinus infection. I got a prescription and was told to take mucinex D. I took it a couple of hours ago and I've been feeling weird ever since. It's ineffective so far and I feel kind of dizzy. I want it out of my system NOW."


"I took sulfamethoxazole all throughout high school and my first year of college and throughout that time my skin was crystal clear. No itty bitty clogged pores, no papules, no white heads. Couldn't have been more perfect. Except for the fact it made me incredibly nauseous in the morning. Also it made me constipated, and whenever I did do a BM it was mushy and watery. It also made me quite bloated. But ever since I was taken off this medicine for those reasons in Dec/15, my skin has been a wreck. I was put on minocycline and it hasn't worked the same. If anything, this is the worst my skin has ever been. I'm thinking about asking my doctor to put me back on sulfamethoxazole and to just suffer through the nausea. What we do for beauty!"


"Lexapro saved me! I started this two weeks ago and could tell a huge difference after a few days! My anxiety was getting the best of me before I started this medicine. I was having anxiety while driving in the car. I finally realized I needed something to help me. My doctor gave me Lexapro. It works! I did feel like a zombie at first but that side effect is fading away. Lexapro has given me my happiness back!"


"I started this medication after I basically had a nervous breakdown in June 2013. I couldn't function as a mother, I felt scared & nervous all the time, lights were too bright, sounds were too loud. I couldn't deal with all of the things that needed to be done around the house. Started out at 30mg for 2 weeks then went up to 60mg. Made me super tired in the afternoons at first. (take around 7am). Cymbalta slowly brought me out of the 'fog' I was in, it took about 6-8 weeks before I could say I felt 'normal' again; whatever that is, right? "


"This was the first birth control I was ever on. The first 4 months on it were fine. My sex drive was normal, my moods were normal, then it all changed. I noticed I start to become depressed. I had emotional outbursts, I was moody all the time. Not to mention my sex drive became nonexistent, and I was so dry down there it was too painful to enjoy intercourse. I felt like a completely different person, and not in a good way. In July I went off the pill and stuck to condoms. I'm starting a new brand called 'Lutera' and hoping it's better than microgestrin fe 1/20 was.

Pros: No pregnancy scares. Periods were on time.

Cons: depression. Anxiety. Mood swings."


"Protopic helped my wife in vitiligo treatment. She has been using 0.03% for face, and 0,1% for body, and it reduced vitiligo almost completely within several months, without any side effects."


"I had my first injections today painful but not terrible. My doc gave me Ativan 1mg po next time I'll ask for Valium 10mg po next time. I'm still having bleeding. They did not tell me to stop placix and ASA so if you take either or both ask. I'll call my doc tomorrow sat and check on that. I'm encouraged by all the good comments on this forum."


"I've been taking Trinessa for about 2 and a half months. The first week upon taking it, I had severe abdominal pain and headaches. I was hungry all the time but, due to the warning that I would have increased cravings, I controlled it rather well. It seemed to get better throughout the month, my face was clearing up, I had energy again, but I still got minor to severe pains on a regular basis. My period came after three days of being on the inactive pills and lasted 4 days. My cramps improved drastically and I was still hormonal, just less. I started back on the pills again and the first day I experienced extreme nausea and vomited. The nausea has continued to follow me for the past weeks, now I am looking into the Nuvaring."


"After a diagnosis of Stage IIIA Breast Cancer, 2 separate modified radical surgeries with lymph node removal and chemotherapy, I was then put on Arimidex.  Had major joint pain, body aching, nauseous and anxiety, to name a few.  I tried NSAIDs and many narcotic medications without success.  Eventually, I was put on AVINZA three years ago.  FINALLY RELIEF!  I have no side effects from AVINZA.  I take a capsule every 12 hours.  The dosage has been varied but little else is required for breakthrough.  I don't know what is different about this narcotic but thankfully, it works for me."


"The most effective Parkinson's drug I have tried.  For me, works substantially better to control muscle pain and rigidity than Azilect, Neupro, Mirapex, Ropinirole, Rytary or Carbidopa/Levodopa alone.  It improves my dexterity and cognitive ability better as well.  Too much of it can be sedating, but otherwise, side effects are very manageable.  I would be in a world of hurt without this medication."


"I am 23 and took ortho tri cyclen lo (OTCL) for about 5 or 6 years. I started taking it to regulate my cycle, for lighter periods, less cramping and all the other positives the pill boasts (and got it!). I am a pretty emotional gal and this seemed to somewhat help. At worst I would say it had no effect on my mood swings but at least it did not make them worse.  over the time I took the pill i gained weight and my boobs grew a cup and 1/2, but i would not blame the weight gain on the pill. OTCL even has cute little cases that you can get from the website for free which i liked and used. I would have stayed on OTCL if I was better about taking it on time and if it were not so expensive ($50 retail, $10-30 w/ insurance)"


"I got Skyla just a few days ago. The actual procedure part lasted maybe 2 minutes...those 2 minutes felt like 2 hours though. Worst pain ever! However, I have not spotted one bit since! I was really worried after reading multiple reviews saying that women spotted for weeks right after they had it put in..I guess I'm not quite out of the woods yet but I'm feeling great! I will say that the day I had the procedure I thought I was going to be able to go into work but the cramping was so bad for about 3 hours after the procedure I wasn't able to do anything except lay on the couch with a heating pad! But ever since that cramping subsided I have been 100% normal. I hope this helps some of y'all make the decision! :)"


"After trying numerous medicines for my persistent nausea this one is the most helpful with the least side effects. Main side effect is inability to concentrate so I can't drive on high doses but I do have a very sensitive system and tend to experience many side effects. But with that being about it I'm glad to have it to rely on."


"Works within 20 mins and lasts about 3 hours."


"It didn't help me at all. I craved chocolate all the time. Not worth the 75.00 a month."


"I had Kyleena inserted two days before my period. I'm not going to sugar coat my experience. The insertion was the most painful thing I've ever had to go through. My doctor told me I would feel some slight cramping, but instead I had the worst cramps I've ever experienced. I also almost passed out during the procedure because the pain was so bad. I ended up hanging out in the room for a few minutes before I could even move around. For the rest of the day, I had very bad cramps. The second day was a little better. On the third day, I got my period and also had very bad cramps. At one point I was driving and had to pull over because I was in so much discomfort. My period then lasted for 12 days. I had mild cramping and moderate back aches."


"Been on this medication for 3-4 months for depression and insomnia. Does not help me get to sleep at all I'm up for hours thing to fall asleep every night no matter what dose I'm on (started at 15 now at 45) I can't wake up most mornings have to drag myself out of bed. Hasn't really helped the depression just made me have even less energy to do anything productive, I eat so much then feel so upset about my body due to the appetite change. I get really weird and vivid dreams - sometimes really bad night mares that I can't tell if they are real or not. Changed my personality, even at my deepest depression points I would still be funny and try and lighten up every situation now I'm irritable, can't talk to anyone, angry just can't socialise"


"Works pretty well after using it for several years. Works best on a totally empty stomach. Have had a glass of wine after taking 3 mg and for some reason it doesn't work as well for me. I wake up after only a couple of hours. All in all, I think it works great. I don't have the memory loss that I sometimes experience with Ambien."


"What a waste of time and money!  Easiest prep I've ever done, but no results for 13 hours after 1st dose, then took 2nd dose 6 hours before procedure and got no more results at all.  Had to cancel procedure.  Took 2 more days to get the Prepopik out of my system!  Now I get to go back and discuss alternative preps and do it all over again."


"Thank you Plan B! on May 5th (Friday) I had intercourse with my boyfriend and he finished inside of me! a complete mess! I was sure I would of gotten pregnant off of that! I freaked out and ran to pharmacy and took the pill within 1 hour. On Sunday May 7th the same thing happen again! (I know I know shame on me!) but once again he slipped up and I took the pill within 1 hour again, I had no side effects expect tiredness and today I got my period May 12th! Thank god! I know plan b works because obviously I got my period so I'm not pregnant but I also know I'm very fertile so that fact that I'm very fertile and considering my boyfriend came  inside of me and I didn't get pregnant thanks to Plan b that's a true miracle!"


"Took only 3 pills that were only 4mg each and after the third pill had heart palpitations, my arms felt numb, nausea, felt so very hungry even after eating. Cannot take this med. Too many side effects."


"I am a 26 year old female.  I started Lexapro 10 mg a week ago.  I have experienced nausea, dry mouth, headaches and fatigue.  Rated it a 7 because I don't think I have been taking it long enough to notice any huge differences.  I do feel maybe slightly more calm and a little less blushing.  Here's hoping things get even better!"


"After my teen years I thought I had finally gotten my skin under control. I'm in my early 20s now and Proactiv just wasn't cutting it anymore. I was developing cystic acne along my jawlines and cheeks which I have never had before. I then tried the new Proactiv   which made my skin so unbelievably dry and much, much worse. I finally decided to go to the dermatologist and got a prescription for Aczone. For my first use, I put it on right before bed and the next morning the bumps were for the most part flat. I was amazed! I've now been using it for 10 days and it's crazy how much better my skin is. It's on it's way to being completely clear and not dry at all! This is a miracle product!"


"I have used a Z-Pak several times. I love that it helps clear up whatever bacteria is causing my illness. I don't love each consecutive time that I take it, the side effects are more pronounced."


"This is my experience so far for anyone considering a Mirena coil.
I ummed and erred for months because of negative reviews and my concerns were:
1) Would insertion hurt? The answer was no, I've had more painful cervical smears than the insertion of my mirena coil.
2) Would it mess with my monthly cycle? Yes, it did. I bled constantly, (in an array of colours!) for the obligatory 3 months that the GP told me to wait, until my body got used to it. Then it was another month before I finally went back to my GP and said "Help". She gave me a progesterone pill told me to take it for a month. I only took it for only one week! It did the job, I stopped bleeding and have gone on to a normal cycle. My periods only last a couple of days, do not hurt and are light, (just a smear of blood). I am 47 and compared to the heavy periods I was having before, it's a walk in the park.
3) Would I put on weight? No, not so far. I feel thinner around the middle.
4) Would I loose my sex drive? No, not so far. I was worried about this, however I am happy to say that I have noticed no difference. Sex is just as welcome and enjoyable as before.
5) Would I get spots? No. The doctor told me that this was less likely because the hormonal content is tiny and localised to the womb. She was right.
All in all it was the right decision for me. I am very happy. I hope this post helps others."


"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 first started taking Serzone after a brain injury in 1987 it work great, then they decide to take it off the market.  I then took the generic Nefazodone  and it has help me more then other drugs for depression. I wish they kept the Serzone it did work better, but the only one I could tolerate was Nefazodone every other drug made me sick. PS it is hard to get the prescription filled in the Seattle area."


"Opana ER was the absolute best pain medication for long term use that I have ever used.  I was on the medication for approximately 21/2 to 3 years until I developed a severe itching problem (head to soles of feet) from its use.  If that had not happened I would still be using it and be virtually pain free 24/7."


"I'm a 28 year old guy with erection difficulty, mostly I think from performance anxiety and just life anxiety too. I've taken Viagra when I need it for over a year now and it is AMAZING. It will give you firm and lasting erections an hour before taking it..I take 50 mg but find sometimes I take 75 mg if I know I'll have a longer night with the girlfriend ;)

Now, it is expensive...even with insurance it costs about $30 per 100 mg pill. So splitting it would be $15 per 50 mg dose but it is SOO worth it being happy with my girlfriend..it has improved confidence in my sex life immensely..not always worrying if I can get and maintain an erection.

The side effects for me (but manageable): stuffy nose, headache, bloodshot eyes, heartburn."


"I was prescribed a 500mg 3x a day dosage for 10 days. I always have issues with antibiotics but this by far is the worst side effects I've ever had! The metallic taste, diarrhea, headaches and overall feeling is horrible. I just completed day 5 and it was so bad that I wanted to stick my fingers down my throat and force myself to throw up! I also started to developed oral thrush! The medicine does seem to be working but I'm not taking all 10 days.  I feel like I can barely make it to 7!!"


"I was using Mucinex DM and just wasn't doing the trick for me.  I wasn't sleeping at night.  So got this and I am slowing getting back to sleeping without being interrupted with coughing."


"I was a little skeptical to try a new drug but when my Daytrana went on backorder, I listened to my doctor and glad I did.  I HATE to swallow pills and didn't want to carry around any syrup with me so this works perfect for me.  Actually taste like orange! Which as you know most drugs don't actually taste like the flavor they say it should so I was pleasantly surprised.  I got to try it out free for the first month and will be continuing to use in the future!"


"Day 20 no smokes can't believe it.  Have had most of the side effects but just keep on going and think they won't last forever.  Been smoking over a packet of 30 a day for 40 years.  JUST KEEP GOING"


"Third day on Movantik. No difference at all. Does it take a while for it to begin working? I wouldn’t see why? Disappointed!"


"Plan b doesn't work! I literally took it four hours after unprotected sex with my boyfriend! That was last month on the 22 of last month and I found out I was pregnant today!"


"I was put on  Glipizide ER after having bad side effects from Metformin ER. Had the diarrhea with it.  Have had no problems with Glipizide."


"So I take this on and off. Well I am back on. And first off, I struggle with weight issues CONSTANTLY! Last week 5-11 I weighed 143. Today 5-20 I weigh 151!!! Haven't changed eating habits, drinking habits. Nothing. Needless to say it's nice to go to the bathroom. But when I have to fit in a wedding dress in 29 days I think I'll pass on the medication. The weight gain, water rent entire, severe bloating stomach. Think I'll pass."


"I've had acne since I was 12 years old. I used a lot (and I mean a lot) of acne products, even Accutane and Tactuo, and none of them worked for me. I am now 20 years old and after using Benzaclin, my acne completely disappeared!! My face is really smooth now! The only things left are my scars that I'm working on to remove. :)"


"On maximum dose with Keppra, and still having some break through seizures.  Still less then I was having before.  No side effects.  Had a full term pregnancy while on medication.  Baby is very healthy."


"If you are prescribed Bactrim, take a probiotic with each pill and the side effects usually go away. Probiotics are over the counter. Before I could not take Bactrim or Keflex. Now no problem. I am on Bactrim for boils and taking the probiotic. "


"The medicine really works, which is great!!!! If you take it with a glass of milk, you wont even taste it."


"Just had a hysterectomy last Wednesday, I have been having "very little" if at all bowel motions. I woke up this morning in excruciating abdominal pain. I took 2 doses in orange juice and I produced my first bowel motion in 1 hour! Wow! More fiber, water, ambulation and Miralax should keep me regular."


"Using this product was an awful experience for me. Granted it was how my body reacted, not the drug itself.. but when you can't take it out or stop using it.. it's miserable. So ladies.. if you hate having your period.. don't get this put in.. because.. I'll have mine for MONTHS at a time. I've had a heavy flow period now for over 2 weeks. Literally the whole month of November so far.. and today is the 16th. HEAVY. Not spotting. Just keep that in mind while making your decision! Only good thing is sex but you can only have it like ... once a month. Ruins vacations. It's awful. If I could cut it out myself I would."


"I have a very bad cold and not getting much sleep. Took two Benadryl and feel much better. "


"This is ridiculous!  I wish I read all of the bad publicity for Monistat prior to using. I hate this. Each night I apply the cream and each night I am met with excruciating pain. Tonight I even had trouble inserting the applicator.

Do not use!  I bought monistat 7 and after three days, I quit. I will not be using the 4 subsequent days. I can't take this anymore."


"I originally got prescribed the Nuvaring because I had horrible menstrual problems but I also now use it as actual birth control as well. It was strange to me at first because of the insertion, but now it's easier and nothing new. The only thing I'd have to say that I didn't like at first with this birth control was the nausea, dizziness and mood swing I had within the first (about) three months. I still have mood swings sometimes, but I think it's just an age thing. I also have not gained any unwanted weight from using this contraceptive, which is a huge thing for me. Overall, I'd have to say I really like this birth control and would recommend it to anyone that can handle it."


"Mobic didn't do anything for my pain from meniscus tears in both knees  but it did take my melon size swollen knees down to almost normal. Once I recover from surgery enough to not need to manage swelling, I will be happy to go back to pain killers till."


"I began taking this pill in May, after having my second child. The nurse at the clinic told me to wait at least three months, as the symptoms would subside. They didn't. I have experienced irregular bleeding, heavier than normal bleeding, cramping, my skin looks worse than it ever has, the bloating is TERRIBLE - I have gained 15 pounds since starting this pill, I've had more headaches, severe fatigue, and have been just down right moody. It has done the job of preventing pregnancy, but then again it has given me the sex-drive of an elderly woman. Would not recommend."


"Horrible side effects (virtually all the ones listed) and did not cure my acne.  In fact, it made my acne about 10 times worse than before.  I find it strange that an "initial breakout" could last well over a month and be continuing to get worse, leaving scars that I never would have otherwise had.  This drug was a total disaster for me and I stopped after a couple months.  My face is still not back to how it was (which would be comparatively awesome and I had moderate-severe acne before), and to be perfectly honest this was the worst decision I could have made for my health and emotional wellbeing."


"Took Contrave for one day - the nausea/dizziness/vomiting  was unbearable.  I will not be taking it anymore which makes upsets me considering it cost me around $100"


"From day one  really bad headaches, lethargic, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion
Tired no energy, really bad skin rash,
Throat closing up, trouble sleeping. All around bad medication, joints aching
Itchy eyes only took medication four days."


"I've been taking Lo LoEstrin for 2 years now. This contraceptive is expensive if you're paying out of pocket but really amazing, definitely the best I've tried thus far. I highly recommend it, especially if you're petite or susceptible to nausea, acne, and other side effects associated with higher dose pills. The last time I checked, it was the lowest dose BC on the market so if you've suffered from side effects on higher dose pills you should consider switching over. I've had zero side effects other than a slight increase in breast size, which is a HUGE change considering how bad I felt during my years on LoEstrin, Ortho Tri Cyclen, and Yasmin. Glad to have found this one!"


"After getting pregnant at sixteen while faithfully using the Depo shot tri-monthly,  I was a little worried about what my next birth control method would be. Well, while in the hospital after giving birth to my son who is now two, I decided to get the Implanon.  I haven't had a single problem yet two years in I don't think about it at all. All I need to remember is on my sons third birthday, it will be time for a replacement!  That simple. This is perfect for me. Would lose my head if it weren't attached me. Don't be afraid because of bad reviews."


"I can't take it on an empty stomach. I have to take it every four hours. Makes me sleepy. My dentist prescribed this for me yesterday."


"This medication may be good for Fibromyalgia, however, it did absolutely nothing for chronic pain. I had an astounding increase in appetite, and gained 30 lbs within 4 months. I had severe swelling in the hands, feet, and legs. I have heard the same remarks of other people more often then not."


"Had a Synvisc One shot about 2 years ago and experienced ZERO relief so I almost gave up on these types of injections. My right knee was hurting so bad that I had to reconsider. My new doctor  told me that he has had the best experience with Euflexxa. This medication is a once per week injection for 3 weeks. I go in to get my first injection and the doctor told me to not expect much however, a day later, I could 100% feel a significant improvement in my knee. While my knee will never be 100%, I rate this product so high because my knee pain has reduced at least 60-70% which to me is a miracle. I have 2 more injections to go and on my last injection they will also be doing PRP therapy to my knee."


"I have had my Nexplanon implant out for about a week now and WOW what a difference!! I experienced bad mood swings with this birth control as well as changes in appetite, weight gain, acne, and random bleeding. I expected the appetite change and bleeding, they didn't bother me too much but the mood swings got me, I thought I was going crazy. Since the implant has been out I've noticed my mood is totally different, I'm not hungry all the time and my face has been slowly clearing back up. I loved the simplicity and ease of it, and stuck with it for about 7 months but glad I had it removed."


"I take 45mg of mirtazapine! It helps me fall asleep but I still wake every 1 1/2hours or so, it has helped with my depression but like other users my appetite has gone through the roof."


"I took this medicine for 6 years and it helped my depression. Allergies became much worse over time and I assumed it was just seasonal or food allergy. Suffered a lot with allergies over the 6 years I was on Cymbalta and was unable to do much of anything even though I have 4 school aged kids. When my Doctor recently increased dosage, my allergies went haywire..... prickly feeling in fingers arms back, itchy nose, throat and private region. Because the allergies came on slowly, I didn't realize it was Cymbalta causing the problem. I really suffered with this and would hate for another to do the same. If you have weird allergy like symptoms, check the Cymbalta. It helped my depression, but I still was not able to live comfortably because of the reaction."


"I use Fioricet on regular basis and most of the time it seems to help."


"I suffer from severe pelvic and abdominal adhesions and severe pelvic pain as a result. It was from a combination of several surgeries, GI issues, endometriosis, bleeding ovarian cysts etc. I am going to be 30 this year and the condition has robbed me of most of my twenties. For years I have tried Percocet, Dilaudid, Lortab, oxycodone, dihydrocodeine, injections in my nerves, Lyrica, topimarate. They only work for a short time and then I have to pretty much live my life around my pain medicine schedule. Then after my last 2 surgeries, the pain got better and was slightly okay with Lortab but not good enough. I started MS Contin 15mg twice a day last week and I have been virtually pain free. I even forget to take the second dose sometimes."


"I've been on Prolia for just over 1 year. Just had my 3rd shot. It is so much easier than taking pills which I did have problems with. I will get another bone scan this fall and will find out how I am doing on Prolia. I love that it is just every 6 months. Pretty much painless shot. No side effects at all."


"I've had Skyla in for a little over a year now and although there is cramping that comes with it I would definitely recommend it! The insertion was really painful! I had to go back a second time because the first time it was unbearable. My OBGYN prescibed me some pain meds and a pill that widened my cervix so it would go in easier. That night I began to bleed a lot and have horrible cramps that lasted two days. After the first week I was completely fine, occasional cramping but I have always had really bad cramps. It has been effective and seems like the easiest most cost effiencient form of birth control!"


"Nardil was definitely my wonder medicine. From being scared to go out my door, or have visitors I eventually worked in a large secondary school moved house achieved many things I never dreamt I would do BUT then I was informed it was being discontinued. I was then put on isocarboxazid and problems getting those so then put on Menerix and my condition returned. I have just tried CYMBALTA but having bad side effects so told to come off. Wish I knew what medicine was as good as Nardil."


"This medicine really works. After trying multiple things and getting frustrated with seeing no results, this finally cleared my skin. It took me about 6 weeks (I'm on a three month dose), so it does take a bit of time. But stay consistent with the medicine and it does wonders. I'm so appreciative of this. Doxy did nothing. Tried new washes and all the home remedies I could find. Even though there are marks left on my face that I'm working to get rid of, my face is smooth and feels great again."


"I took the standard dose as prescribed. And not even 30 minutes later I'm sneezing like crazy and nose is running like Niagara falls. Its claims of 24hr relief is garbage."


"After 15 years of being diagnosed with high cholesterol, Crestor did the following for me in three months - dosage 20mg:
Before: Total Cholesteral 379, HDL 64, LDL 286
After using Crestor: Total cholesterol 226, HDL 74, LDL 107.
My doctor had never seen such positive results in his practice - ever!"


"Has been working great for me, I am currently taking this with Klonopin and have been getting the best nights of sleep I've had in years! I have tried them all to, Ambien CR, Sonata, Rozeram, Restoril and lorazapram to help calm me down before sleep. For some reason with everything but Lunesta, I would always end up waking up in the middle of the night and never be able to fall back asleep. I don't wake up groggy with this medicine either, am literally feeling the most rested and energetic during the day that I can remember filling since I was a kid."


"I am 17 years old and Loestrin is the first birth control I have ever taken. I have gained a little weight, mostly in my breasts. Also got my period for a week and a half the first week I started on it. I have now been on it a month and a half and I have not gotten my period and worried I may be pregnant although I have taken multiple pregnancy tests that came back negative."


"It worked great for my pneumonia but it caused my heart rate to go up, chest pain and anxiety. I would ask for a different one if you have heart issues or tachycardia."


"The worst thing that ever happened to me!! I hate this type of contraception ! I had my baby in June, so I was bleeding for about a month and a half, then I decided to get this depo injection, which was the biggest mistake ever! So after one week after injection was done I started to bleed (again), already for 2weeks. I am feeling dizzy, weak, anxious, depressed and ligh headed! Waiting for my blood test results, to see if I am not aneamic.. Because after giving birth usually women's are bleeding and already loosing some blood, and now this terrible  injection just made it worse. However my doc prescribed me some drugs to stop bleeding, it calls tranexamic acid 500mg, so I am taking these tablets, it's already third day but still the same"


"I have been a sufferer from what was thought to be very bad headache 'attacks' but as I later began to doubt this I was told by my GP that my headaches could actually be migraine attacks. I was given sumatriptan tablets to see if this would help in combating the onset of my headaches and stop them all together and not just preventing a headache from developing into a migraine. I used to suffer from full blown migraines from time to time (once or twice a month) and less severe attacks in between. Now as soon as I begin to feel any kind of eye or neck strain or light sensitivity I know am going to be okay. Ask your GP about Sumatriptan medication. Highly recommended"


"This medication sucks. I took 20mg Adderall XR, which worked wonderfully for my ADHD, for a month, but had to get off of it, because I have Tourette Syndrome and Adderall aggravated my tics. My physician then put me on Strattera. It is extremely expensive, since it is patented until May 2017, and I was given a sample 6-week starter titration pack (from 25mg to 80mg). I took a 25mg capsule last night around 7 PM, and an hour later, I was nauseous/lost my appetite, and I experienced sexual dysfunction (it took over an hour to reach a burning, painful orgasm). The next day (today), I am constipated and depressed. I'd recommend clonidine or guanfacine before trying this garbage for ADHD."


"This drug is the devil. The first few doses work like magic. After 1 week a hellish withdrawal starts kicking in about 2 hours after taking each dose. Impossible to ween off of without a doctor who's familiar with this highly addictive drug."


"This stops the bleeding.  I have been bleeding heavy for 4 weeks. This worked and i actually feel better! ? Happier and more energetic!"


"I have tried Singular three different times. Each time it has caused suicidal tendancies in me. This happens soon after I take it. My mood was very scary on this. I was prescribed this for asthma and allergies. I stopped taking it since it seemed to just depress me."


"I suffer from restless legs syndrome since 14 years ago and been taking Sinemet since. The only medication that works for me but only lasts for 2 to 3 hours then need to take again. For about nearly 2 years I came to realize that after eating food or drink contain msg/monosodiom glutamate - 621,627 which will contribute my suffering so if I eat less of this and will be less suffering. "


"I got it put in early July and after a week i started spotting then bleeding and stop then spot ik its been over a month since i had it but i hate it i spot it all the time i am ready to already get it out i don't recommended it i haven't gained weight yet i did have minor cramps when inserting it they do numb u so u cant feel it"


"My Doctor prescribed this for anxiety. 10mg. Although it seemed to help my physical affects of anxiety it made everything else much worse. Tired, anxious, head aches, brain zaps, ringing in ears, spacey, edgy, and not myself at all. I was turning into a walking zombie. It was awful. I couldn't tell if it was my anxiety or the side effects. I thought I was going crazy for 6 months. I finally talked to a Therapist and he took me off of Zoloft and put me on Lexapro. Which was much better but still pretty awful. I finally found the courage to ween myself off over a period of two months and I feel GREAT! So thankful to be myself again. Please make sure you really need to be on these before you  take them. Do your research and good luck!"


"I am 21 years old and I have high blood pressure. I was on hydrochlorothiazide for approximately 2 weeks when one night about 3 hours after I took it, I had an allergic reaction. My hands, face, lips and feet swelled up.  I was itching and had difficulty breathing. My mom rushed me to the ER. If you have ANY of the previous symptoms please go to the ER as soon as possible."


"This drug has saved my life at least once.  I took it when I was pregnant and had unrelenting morning sickness that wasn't helped by any other medications.  I'm now taking it again for nausea caused by severe pain (as well as the nausea caused in turn by pain medications, as I seemingly can't win on that one).  But perhaps most importantly, it was the only drug that got me out of opiate withdrawal when I had the stomach flu.  Without this, I would have been in the hospital because I couldn't otherwise keep anything down and without opiate therapy the withdrawal and the pain combined could easily have killed me.  The only possible drawback is cost; even the generic would be completely out of reach for someone without insurance."


"I took Levaquin and think it should be banned.  I went to bed and had horrible racing thoughts...a terrible terrible experience.   My Dr. insisted I come to office when I called in the morning.
I would have liked to rate it as 0 but I had to select and the only option was 1.    I will never take this family of drugs."


"The birth control definitely works . However , in six months I gained 13 pounds while eating fairly clean and working out . So I went on a 3 week body cleanse and got a trainer - lost 10lbs. I went on a cruise and gained 10 pounds back within a week .  I still eat clean/workout and still the weight will not budge . I have horrible acne now . My skin was almost flawless before nexplanon . I just scheduled to have it removed next month . Me and my partner use protection , so I feel like this birth control with all the weight gain and acne is not worth it . Plus , my cycle used to be 4-6 days every month . Now my cycle comes when it wants : spots , comes on , spots some more . I'm usually bleeding 2 weeks a month and I'm at month 7."


"It's only been a month and its been horrible for me. I've tried another birth control that was also very low dosage and never had any problem or side effects. With Lutera its been so different. I started spotting on the second week of starting the pill and it lasted till it was time to get my period. I've had mood swings and really bad depression and emotional. It's not normal for me because I haven't felt like this before. I also get really hungry at 2, 3,4 am. Those are my major issues with this pill. I'm going to give it one more month and if things don't change I'm going back to the birth control I was taking."


"weight gain; tinnitus"


"HORRIBLE! Paying $50 for this stuff was a waste. Dont waste your time"


"I'm still taking, on day 2 & have already notice my symptoms for trichomoniasis clearing up. I opted to take the 2x day, 500 mg vs the megadose. So far, no side effects."


"I've been on this pill for a week and a half. So far the only side effect increased libido, and I mean it's increased a lot. No period ,no breast size changes. I will keep taking this pill until I'm ready to settle down and have children."


"I have only been on this for a few weeks after switching from Lo loestrin. So far no mood changes which has been great because that was one of my biggest issues! No cramping or abnormal bleeding. So far I am extremely pleased with Ortho Cyclen."


"I suffer from major depression and was placed on Cymbalta 6 yrs ago. I took myself off against my doctor's advice. Life became hopeless and all I though about was wanting to die. Now I've been back on it for 18 days and I'm on top of the world. The future looks bright and I'm certainly enjoying the present!"


"Wow. I've had mild rosacea for years and had heard about this medication but was unable to take it because I was pregnant then nursing.  I saw results in just over a week. I don't even need to use the Metrogel anymore. I take it at night with a glass of water and have never had any side effects. I definitely recommend this. Luckily my copay is only $25 month. I was told to be careful with sun exposure while taking this but it's winter so I'm hoping this isn't a problem in summer."


"I have experienced HiV related Neuropathy for years finally getting to the point I had to address the illness.

My doctor recommended this drug even though I thought it was not a good idea to use a antidepressant  for pain since I had been on Lexapro for years for depression and panic disorder.  The Lexapro works well for my mental health issues. But since the doctor knows best I caved and made the switch.

At first I did not notice anything good or bad but with in the first couple of weeks I began waking up in the morning almost in a state of panic. I contacted my pharmacy and they recommended taking it in the morning and that this was fairly common.  In about a week or less I posted a suicidal post on social media I don't even recall."


"Made me too "hungover" and groggy the next day.  I was even breaking my 50mg pill in half."


"I've been having constant bleeding or just huge blood clots since I got the shot 2 weeks ago. Also, it's caused me the worst anxiety and depression I've ever experienced in my life. I would not recommend this to anyone ever..."


"This medication addressed inappropriate crying and laughing that has plagued me since a right frontal lobe aneurysm rupture 10 years ago. Took a few weeks to adjust to the side effects but well worth the effort!"


"I have always had issues with irregular periods since my first period at 17 years old.  I summed it up to my body just being complicated.  When I turned 25 my periods started getting farther and farther apart.  I'd have a 25 day cycle and then he next would be 90 days.  I ended up in the ER with two ruptured cysts and one the size of a baseball.  After years of feeling tired all the time and strange hairs on my breasts and random places I was finally diagnosed with PCOS.  I had also been trying to conceive for one year. My doctor started me on metformin 500mg once a day. Just 3 weeks later I conceived and 9 days after that I had a positive pregnancy test.  After a entire year of trying!!!  I feel so much better on this medicine."


"I've been taking Cafergot / ergotamine for over 25 years and it's the only med that actually relieves small cluster headaches to full blown migraines. I don't even want to try another because this works so fast with no side effects. I see where the pharmaceutical companies are trying to take it off the market. Please don't. I honestly don't know what I'd do if it were no longer available."


"Cataflam is a life saver but it takes about an hour after swallowing to start working. I take 2 at a 6 hr interval and can take up to six at the end of the day, but that's only for the first day of the period. "


"Experienced rapid heartbeat and bloodshot eyes on second day as well as blurred vision on the fourth day."


"Was having some anxiety and depression issues due to many life factors. Was told that Wellbutrin would be a good option and that it was fairly mild. The first few days had the euphoric feeling everyone talks about, but this ended in 2-3 days. After that anger kicked in to the point where I was taking walks at 1am to calm down and relax. From there the weirdness kicked in. A feeling that's hard to describe but life got very flat. Didn't feel anything, just flat. I felt like I had a lobotomy or something. At a party last week a friend asked if I was stoned as I looked out of it. Then I forgot to take it one day and I felt great that day, joy, emptions, had fun. I then took it the next day and felt horrible.

Cold turkey and happy, not for me"


"I've been taking TriNessa for about 3 years now, and I was prescribed Trinessa because I had a long history of moderate to severe acne. With my experience every new method of treating acne usually makes your skin worse before it gets better. For those quitting after a few months, I know the pain I've been there. But it took a solid 6 months to year before it worked for my acne. At 6 months my skin started to gradually clear, and after a whole year, I had 99% clear skin. It's been a miracle for me. You just have to be patient. If you are willing to wait that long, it's worth it. I wonder that if you've never had a history of moderate to severe acne, Trinessa might not be the best bc option."


"I have been taking them for a week and have been dieting for 5 weeks previous. I wanted to share my experience after reading the reviews, this product already is  working for me and I see weight not going on after eating high calorie foods. There is a side effect that I totally agree with but I laugh about it, its the toilet visits. The smell is hard to beat!, just laugh it off its working. It's like having a curry from the night b4 so bit runny, its like that most of the time now, just get used to it. It looks like the fatty oil you have at the top of a delivered curry that you spoon off, when you wipe it feels like a thin cooking oil so don't be surprised when it happens, just laugh it off"


"Weird vivid dreams feels like I'm paralyzed  and can't move.I do feel rested though"


"This medication is a miracle for me! I have had migraines for 26 years and tried just about everything. My neurologist prescribed this in an attempt to get rid of a 3 week migraine. I took the spray as directed and within an hour I was headache free. I have no side effects, no bad taste, nothing. It is truly my miracle!"


"It works good, you will feel the congestion breaking down. It does make you cough more to loosen up mucus and yes you probably will stay up a bit a night. I took the pill not liquid. Have to say I was surprised."


"I was literally terrified to insert this on day one because of reviews saying that the pain was excruciating. Just wondering if you guys had a severe infection and irritation down there or something when you used it cause I felt 0 pain or discomfort at all. And I had really worked myself up before inserting it cause I was so scared about the possible pain. Monistat 3 worked wonderfully for me. Hope this helped."


"Overall I feel that this birth control does a great job. I've been taking it for 3 years to regulate my period and prevent pregnancy with out any problems. I've never experienced any of the sides effects, or at most they were on such a small scale that I didn't notice them. The only thing I dislike is that I don't usually start my period until 3-4 sugar pills in. I don't know how common this is with other women, but that has been the case for me since I began taking it."


Atropine / hyoscyamine / phenobarbital / scopolamine

"I am a 45 year old male who has suffered from IBS since my teens.  Nothing has been successful until I went to Italy and learned about Donnatal.  When I returned to the States i asked my Dr. about Donnatal and he said it was an old medicine, which he hasn't prescribed in years. He gave me a prescription and my pains, and loose bowl movements have stopped.  I have been taking this medicine for 3 months and now I can function normally.. now I have my life back.  I reported this to my Dr. who was surprised and has started to prescribe it again with some great feedback.

I find the liquid Donnatal works best.  I can even drink Coffee again."


"Causes dizziness, dry mouth."


"I had good results with this in using it for 1 month as directed.  I found it easy to use. I didn't experience any negatives like others mentioned.  The only problem was the cost.  $95.00 a month and that's with insurance.  I asked my doctor if there is anything cheaper and she told me to used Crisco 2x a week and Yuvafem once a week. I have and it works!  I have not experienced pain during intercourse and I cut the cost of using Yuvafem in half.  It sounds weird, but I thought it was worth sharing."


"I been using these pills for 10 days now it's really amazing.  I had tried many different before. None works. These pills works great. Sleep really good. Just worry maybe sleeping to much!! ):"


"I started taking this medicine within 72 of possible infection as a condom broke during sex and I totally freaked out as the other guy was positive .. and no side effects at all .. It's only been 2 days and I'm glad that this medication is helping a lot of people who are positive with the ease of the med"


"Just starting taking this last night. Got a really bad back spasm the night before. Pain level was an 8 but became a 10 (couldn't move) so went to the ER. They gave me a shot (pain reliever) and twp ills (one was a pain reliever & the other a muscle relaxer. Can't remember the names but ended up with a prescription for Methocarbamol 500 mg every 4 hours and also Tramadol (pain reliever). Between what they gave me at the ER and then the two prescriptions I took last night, it allowed me some relief and also a decent sleep. Taking them today and it's 5:00 pm. Feeling much much better. pain level is down to a 3. On a side note, no one in the world can possibly imagine the pain of a real bad back spasm. wouldn't wish it on my worse enemy."


"I had it put in in September 2011, had one period a couple weeks later but after that one, nothing since. I'm in the military and even with all the hard work and physical demands, it has had ABSOLUTELY ZERO negative side effects and sex is way better now because we don't have to worry about getting pregnant! It was surprisingly easy to insert into my arm too...try it!"


"I'm 20 years old and I've definitely gained weight and my breasrs have gotten bigger since I started this medication, but I'm not too worried about those things.  The only problem with it is having an extremely long and heavy period.  At first I was using Ortho Evra, but had to switch to Xulane because of insurance.  Other than the heavy periods, everything is fine.  They are regular and even if my boyfriend and I don't use condoms, we've never even had a scare.  It works perfectly."


"I am NOT new to HIV or HIV treatment. I've known my status since 1994 (1st test). I have been through all of the initial Protease Inhibitor drugs from the mid 1990's & the plethora of severe side affects they provided.

I was switched to Triumeq in late Feb, 2016, NOT due to having a detectable viral load, but due to increasing diarrhea on my last drug combination which included Epzicom, Norvir & Prezista. I wish I never complained about the diarrhea because I am still suffering from extreme headaches nine (9) days after stopping Triumeq. I am on continuous pain killers because these headaches are CONSTANT. Triumeq for me is a complete disaster. I took a full month of Triumeq."


"What I have is a recurring ovarian cyst; what I need is an oophorectomy. However, no one will do it until I try, and fail, to control the condition with birth control. (disclosure: 45 years old, been sterile since 2002 after tubal ligation.) Was prescribed this form of birth control - caused the worst headaches I've ever had in my life. DEBILITATING headache - spent days on the couch with a heating pad on my face. Flushed the pills down the crapper - cyst pain/irregular cycles/heavy bleeding/ anemia is better than taking these."


"I took Lo Loestrin Fe for 2 years and honestly loved it. I switched briefly to the generic version for a month, and it was freaking awful, so I switched back to Lo Lo right away.
Only issue I encountered on it was that I ovulated over the BC.. which resulted in extreme breast tenderness & growth (for about 2-3 weeks) and weight gain. When this first happened to me I really thought I was pregnant, after a test came out negative I went to my OBGYN and she explained that it was too low a hormone level to properly regulate my cycle. Hence the ovulation. So then I switched to generic and ended up just switching back again.
I finally stopped taking Lo Lo after the 2nd time I ovulated over the pills and got an IUD.
Overall though, great BC"


Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation and Deficiency

"I was told to take PreserVision AREDS 2 after an eye exam where the Dr. thought he saw early possible macula degeneration   in one eye. I took them every day and was noticing that my sight seems to be deteriorating and I had more floaters. My eyes seemed tired more after playing piano or reading. Then I ran out and spent a few days without them. My vision improved greatly! Less floaters and more able to focus on different tasks. I just played piano without my glasses! Go figure. Gotta talk at my appointment in June but I don't think my body Likes them."


"Passed a 6 mm stone.  It was stuck for 4 days, I went to the hospital and was given Flomax and sent home.  It passed in 2 days.  It worked for me."


"I have adult cystic acne that was very painful all along the chin and around the mouth. A week on the doxycycline cleared up my face and I had only very minimal pimples (and not cystic) for a few weeks after. But after three months it is completely gone. Not sure what will happen when I come off it! Keep your fingers crossed for me."


"I'm a 16 year old girl. I have been on tons of medicines for migrane pevention and nothing seemed to help. One day ended up in the E.R. and missed much school. When I started on Elavil 10mg seemed to do not do much but when my dose was increased to 30 mg I tend to have less frequent (2-3) migranes a week. My migraines are less intense and I'm able to do my studies. The dry mouth is much less when I chew gum but I tend to be tired all the time. This medication has worked the best for me, although not perfect."


"Xanax is amazing! In 2010 I was overwhelmed with emotions. My mother had a stroke in March of that year and at the same time me and my wife were expecting our 1st child. All these emotions led to me having depression and anxiety I was finally diagnosed in 2012 with anxiety disorder/panic attacks. They prescribed me Xanax 0.5mg one a day and it works miracles in my daily life."


"My doctor prescribed this for inflammation in my lower back area, I have been on it for one week. My shoulder and neck pain is gone almost completely and my back feels a lot better.  As of today its been 5 days I have been on this product. The info says it takes two weeks..am hoping it just gets better. Very impressed."


"I was switched to this after being on Ortho Tricyclen Lo (loved it) and Gildess (loved it aside from hair loss). Blisovi led to painful and embarrassing breakouts, especially along my jawline and chin. I've never had perfect skin, but this was unbearable! I usually don't write reviews, but I had to share this one. Also, my hair was shedding like crazy--I was practically going bald! Awful :(

Also, I was on Ortho Tricylen Lo all 4 years of college and it completely cleared my skin and gave me semi-heavy periods and caused some mood swings. Maintained good weight though..

I was on Gildess for 6 months until it was recalled. I did have hair loss, but I was happy all the time with clear skin! Also, lost about 5 pounds (I'm 5'4" & was 110lbs)"


"I am a 29 yo female and have recently been diagnosed with dry eyes. I have had the worse time in the middle of the night and while looking at my work computer screen. I even got a humidifier and eye covers to no avail. I've only been on Xiidra for literally 4 days and I've noticed a big difference already. Does it have a weird taste? Yes. Only lasts 5 min. Taste is so insignificant I can't believe people are even mentioning it. People also wrote in the reviews that the plastic containers are too hard. Like, what?! Nope. There is about 6 drops in each container. I had no burning or itching. $60/mo w/ insurance, but w/ coupon it's free the first month and $10 after that. I hope it continues to help! 6/10 bc it's too early to tell how it will work."


"I've been taking Alesse 28 for just over a year and its dramatically changed my period, for the better. My flow used to be heavy and 7-10 days with EXTREME cramps! I am now down to 2-3 days with a light flow and manageable cramps. My cycle has always been on schedule so it didn't change that aspect much. I should add I'm 19 and this is the first and only birth control I've tried and I think it works great."


"I had a miscarriage and went to my OBGYN and he prescribed me LoLo. He didn't tell me how or when to use it, so I tried to read up on it before I did. My MC started on august 2-11 and I got my ultrasound to check up on everything and they said I passed the baby so I started LoLo. I bled for a month but towards the end of the month (last week and a half) it started turning brown like old blood. I was taking the pill at exactly 9:30 everyday and when I started my new pack, I did good for two days then on my third day I was an hour late but still took it and the day after that, I took it six minutes earlier. But now I'm on day 7, and I took the pill at 9:30 since day 5.

I haven't had any S/E but a couple days ago my back started to ache"


"We have used Ornex for over 30 years and find it to be the most effective remedy for sinus headaches and the like.  The non-drowsy formula allowed my husband to take it when operating heavy equipment.  It is easy to use but very hard to find these days.  We have never experienced any adverse side effects from its use.  Please put it back on the market!"


"A+++"


"I was diagnosed with ADHD in 6th grade and have taken Stattera ever since. I am a college student now and its worked so well for me that I continuously make good grades. I would recommend this medicine to anyone who is having problems finding one to work."

"Zanaflex is "the best" muscle relaxer besides Xanax.  It will dry your mouth out but the good outweighs that.  This will put you to sleep in  30-45 minutes.  No hangovers and memory loss and getting up in middle of night and eating like Ambien makes you.  Can take 1/2 during day when required for tight, knotty, hard muscles that hurt so bad from multiple bad surgeries."


"I have suffered RLS since about 5 years of age.  Now 78.  Nothing would stop it - neurologists tried all usual medication, permoglide, rivotril, etc.  Then saw new GP in 60's who also suffered badly and he had in desperation tried oxycontin with great relief.  Suggested I tried one
10 mg tablet before going to bed or when travelling as passenger in car - this was intolerable.
Found tablet worked like magic and although reliant on it still take same 10 mg but one tablet first thing in morning and one prior to going to bed - about 1 hour before.  Found it does not always work at night so I can be up until 3 am walking the floor nearly going insane as pain in legs is so bad.  However, 90% of time I do get incredible benefit."


"After taking amolodipine 10mg daily for 18 mos. my doctor and I decided to try to kick my bp down another notch.  He prescribed benazepril 40 mg. Worst five days of my life; Literally.
I couldn't eat.
Felt awful.
Didn't want to move, think, or be awake."


"Getting started on this medicine can be tricky.  It comes in doses from 75mg immediate release up to 300mg extended release. Due to the stimulant effect it has, you may need to ease into it! Everybody is different. I had to ease into it.

For Major Depressive Disorder, it has worked great. I lost weight, my sex drive is through the roof (I'm 54 and feel like a teenager in that respect). I have lots of energy, (sometimes, too much). It doesn't help with my anxiety; I still need Klonopin now and then. It also gives me insomnia, again, the Klonopin helps there. And as other have said, it doesn't "build up" in your system so you don't get the withdrawal SSRI's/SNRI's."


"I had some anxiety in college, then graduated, and the anxiety stayed. I used medication as my last resort, and after my doctor decided taking clonazepam everyday wasn't cutting it- I went on Zoloft.  I expressed my concern about the weight gain aspect of this drug, and my doctor told me this was weight neutral....HA. a year later and I am 25 pounds heavier despite strict diet and exercise. The drug does wonders for anxiety, but I cannot deal with the weight. I am now considered obese. I've tried everything, and the only thing that seems to work is simply not eating (which obviously isn't practical). I am in the process of getting off this drug."


"I've had a child via C-section. So I found out the day of my appointment the doctor is not comfortable placing IUDs in women who haven't given birth. Any how it was resolved & another doctor placed it that day. I took ibuprofen before, I was REALLY scared. I had Mirena before and the doctor had trouble getting it in and I had trouble with the hormones, so this is my only option left. The doctor was great and she finished within 10 minutes, I felt 2 cramps, and I was fine after I left. I rested the rest of that day and I haven't needed any pain medicine since the day I got it placed. I'm just so shocked and I feel like there's nothing in me. I have minimal bleeding to my surprise. Have to get an ultrasound to check it and a check up in a month. So far so good!"


"So I received the Skyla around Feb 3 2015. It hasn't been that long but it is very relieving knowing its pretty impossible to have a child right now. The insertion was EXTREMELY painful. May have been worth it for that time but I won't be doing it again.I have tattoos and a high pain tolerance and it was horribly painful. It felt like someone was scraping my cervix with a knife. Anyways , everything seemed good. I started off with some spotting here and there but it was so little that it didn't bother me. Now this last period is never ending. Like I said it hasn't been months or anything of straight bleeding, but I can tell that something isn't right. Skyla is new, so do your research."

"I used to have canker sore pain for two weeks that was so bad I could not talk or eat without constant pain.  Now, as soon as I feel a sore or more that hurts a lot, I start my treatment of 1 pill per day for 5 days and the pain is reduced to a very tolerable amount.  The pain goes away in a few days altogether.  I only use the pills for the very painful outbreaks. Some sores don't warrant the need to risk unneccessary medicine.  I know when it is time to start medicating when the pain consumes."


"I had Implanon inserted in July of '09.  I didn't have a period at all until Mother Nature showed up...ON NEW YEAR'S!  Not the way I wanted to start 2010.  I have gained 10-15 pounds since getting Implanon and have acne, mood swings, and I have bad moments where I don't even recognize myself. I don't like being moody. It's tearing my boyfriend and I apart."


"I was prescribed 200mg 2x day, and two days in I stopped taking these tablets-that was two days ago and still my entire body is a mass of burning red itchiness- looks like measles and is getting worse."


"Abilify, along with Prozac has worked amazing for me. But there is a downside to using Abilify. WEIGHT GAIN! Once I started it, my appetite increased like crazy and now I've gained about 60 lbs. It's like do I want to quit taking it and go "crazy" but be thin or keep taking it and be fat and happy, literally!"


"I had Skyla inserted February 2016. Yes, as all the other comments and reviews have stated, it was the most painful experience 'down under' that I have ever been through. I am a 26 year old with no children. I had spotting for the first couple of weeks with extremely harsh cramping. My first period was normal, with every cycle becoming lighter and lighter. I am now 4 months into having the Skyla inserted and I couldn't be happier! The cramping has subsided, only arising around the time when I am on my cycle. I haven't noticed any weight gain and my sex drive is through the roof! (I don't feel it during intercourse either!) The only reason I didn't rate Skyla 10/10 is because of the painful insertion. Otherwise, I am completely happy!"


"I had sex with my boyfriend, the condom broke. He went to buy the Plan B pill right after that happened. After about an hour I took the pill. I'm still waiting to get my period. I'm so worried."


"I started Ziana one month ago. I am 26 and have had severe cystic acne from the age of 16. I haven't worn makeup for the last two weeks because I DO NOT need to hide anything anymore. Wooohooo!! It made my skin red/peel for a week and half but not so much that I needed to hide. I can wear the gel during the day because it doesn't flake or peel like most gels do. My pores are much smaller and I couldn't be happier. I now only need to use it about twice a week. Love this product!"
