"1st time YI. Bought monistat 3 pre-filled cream. 1st dose burned and itched for bout an hour. I thought my vagina was gonna die lol. 2nd day was a little better no burning but very itchy. 3rd day no burn or itch. It's been 3 days since then and I feel 100% better. Will definitely buy again. I recommend to anyone just sit thru the pain. It's temporary."


"I experienced severe increases in my blood pressure. Had anxiety and panic attaches. Had a small ischemic stroke. Had weakness, numbness and tingling in muscles, muscle cramps, bad taste in mouth. Headaches and confusion."


"This Is An Amazing Birth Control. I've Been On This For Five Years And Counting. I Never Got Pregnant, My Menstrual Last About 3-4 Days(Regular Period ) ,No Cramps, Face Is Clear Of Acne, From Time To Time Ive Gotten Moody But Overall I Love It!  I'm Looking Forward To Getting Off And Starting A Family."


"I was given the pill and symptoms were gone in 24 hours but 2 days later it came back. I'm pretty upset. Now I'm gonna have to go back to the doctors just to get another medication or higher dosage. the only side effect I had was diarrhea"


"I have tried EVERYTHING for my anxiety (my symptoms stem from post traumatic stress disorder, but have also been labeled as generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder and social anxiety). Nothing has worked (aside from Benzodiazepines, which I avoid because of the sedative effect), other than Tramadol. I take 50mg a day. Recently I worried that I would run out so I tapered off of it- and my anxiety resurged with a vengeance. I never developed any tolerance for this medication- it has worked well for me for a year. The only negative has been when I mix it with alcohol. It didn't have much effect on the social anxiety but it worked great in general."


"Horrible! I have done nothing but sleep... I was on 40mg for a few days, I have quit taking it. After 3 days I have literally gained 2 lbs.. I never gain weight, I have been the same weight for the last 5 years.. This is medicine might help some people, but not me."


"Besides the side effects Abilify for Psychoaffective disorder has worked miracles for me. PEACE OF MIND."


"I am 24 and have been on Ortho Cyclen for almost 5 years and love it! When I was on the patch, I felt nauseous and weak and it would never stay on my skin for the entire week, so I switched to Ortho Tri-Cyclen. Every week I would feel horrible, because my body could never get used to the fluctuating hormones. So, my doctor started me on Ortho Cyclen for the constant even stream of hormones and voila! I found the best pill for me. Recently, I have been considering switching to an IUD, as I am tired of having to be chained to my pills even on vacation. But as far as a pill goes, this one is top notch."


"I started on Victoza on May 10th. Took the .6 dose for one week and I'm now taking 1.6 dosage. I've read all the comments and I've learned a few things, so thank you! I take the dosage at night so that the nausea isn't too bad. On the days I'm nauseous, I'll take one or two Altoids mint and after a few minutes, I feel fine. I also take a acidophilus pill to add good bacteria. It seems to regulate bowel movement. I'm only taking this for three months to lower my HbA1c and my doctor wants me to lose weight. I started at 176 lbs and I'm now 175 lbs. As you can see, I haven't lost any weight. My optimum weight is 155lbs. The Victoza has curbed my appetite, but I was never into snacks or late night eating so I guess, no weight loss for now."


"I've been through several medicines including Abilify,  Zoloft, clonazepam, Seroquel, Ativan, and several others. and this medicine it the most wonderful of all of them.   With Paxil I feel so calm and just even toned. Is it possible something actually can work. I'm thinking genius! I can't thank you enough."


"I took this pill after switching off lo loestrin fe for cost reasons and I regret it. I'm much more moody and anxious all the time and I have severe cramps on this pill, while I had none on lo loestrin. I'm switching to a new pill but I wish I would have realized these and other bad side effects were caused by the blisovi sooner so I didn't have to suffer for so long!"


"I have a daughter that was suffering severely with Bipolar Disorder (started at age two and was diagnosed at age 12), which included severe anger, depression and mania.  We had tried her on nearly every other Bipolar medicine on the market, with no results.  We took her completely off every other drug, and started her on Topamax as a solitary treatment and within 30 days she was a new person, and has been stable on Topamax now for over 5 years. We started at 25mg and worked our way up until we had the proper dose. At age 19 she takes 200 mg per day...100mg in the morning and 100mg in the evening."


"I have been on this birth control for 2 months now as was prescribed to me.  My Dr. Put me on it after my surgery for Endometriosis... The birth control was to regulate my period so my painful & continual periods would cease... Well it ceased the constant cramps and I dont take the sugar pills and skip having my period altogether.  I have no libedo, which is not normal. I never gain weight, I've gained 11lbs. I just read a ton of the other reviews and am surprised no one is having this one symptom I have... I am cometely numb to feelings... others - family, friends & my husband say I've acting way different and cold towards them... Its like I have no feeling of love, anger, or sadness!  So I am getting off of it and I do not reccomend it"


"I'm 1 month  in on trying this respimat. It's terrible. I see the specialist tomorrow, and I went back on my morning once a day spariva. I used the combivent inhaler for extremely bad attacks where I might only use it 3-4 times in a month and it was a life saver for me. It WAS my safety net..I hope they go back to the combivent inhaler."


"This drug has changed me back to the person I recall being 20 yrs ago. For the first time in years I've been waking up early with energy ready to take on the day. I have a 1 year old toddler and a beautiful wife and I want to be all I can for them and I don't think it would be possible without the assistance of this medication. I am also a surgeon and lead a stressful lifestyle so I need all the help I can get.

There's been a lot of trial error along the way...

My Advice: keep trying different anti-depressants and by 12 months there is a 90% chance you'll find the right one for you.

If the medication gives you a significant improvement (but falls short of 100%) stick with it and sort the rest out with psychotherapy."


"My experience with the DEPO shot was horrible. I started off the first year on the pill and it was okay but it wasn't helping my bleeding at all and I was tired of taking the pill every day. I started the shot in September and the first two months were fine, I didn't bleed at all but when I tell you I had major mood swings it was terrifying. I would be depressed or really angry for about a week until it calmed down a little. I took the second shot thinking my body would start getting used to it and balancing everything out and the same thing happened again but I started to get more stomach pains and migraines. Now I just found out I have a tumor behind my eye! Thanks a lot DEPO"


"I have had grand mal seizures since I was 9 years old and was involved in a car accident. I have taken Dilantin for over 50 years, with good results. It has controlled my seizures pretty well until recently. I was diagnosed with COPD 2 years ago, and in that time, I have been having seizures every 3-6 months. My doctor switched me to Keppra 6 months ago, and in that time, I have had at least 1 seizure a month. I think it's time to switch back to what works."


"I'm 23 and haven't given birth. Got a copper coil placed beginning of November 2016 and it was one of the most horrifying experiences I've gone through in my life. It wasn't necessarily because of the operation itself but for the fact that I wasn't informed beforehand that I should've had a big meal before arriving BC the first thing they gave me was two pills of Parasetamol to ease the uncomfortness of insertion. That morning I only managed to grab a small bite before running to the clinic so I basically had them in an empty stomach. ( So ladies, make sure you have received all the vital information before getting anything placed! X)

The insertion was quite ok. It was done fast. The doc gave me some intructions for the future and I was ready to go. As soon as I exit the clinic I started shivering and sweating. Back to the clinic, sat on a chair and that's when the world started spinning. For the next couple of hours I was throwing up the parasetamol in the clinic's toilet. Didn't get much assistance but luckily my boyfriend left work to pick me up. As soon as it was out of my body the cramps and the pain started and lasted for a couple of days. 5 days after I only felt pressure. Then finally I went back to normal. Phew.

The pain comes back when I'm on my periods. Around 2-3 days before it starts. I've got mood swings, feel bloated and pressure in my lower belly. Then the cramps start and last time lasted for a day  so I'm hopeful it's the same this time BC I'm on my periods and at this moment it's very painful. Before copper coil I never had much issues with periods. One day it would just start and be gone in 4 days now it takes around 7-8 days.

Good things to say about ParaGard is that there's no hormones which I love and that I haven't got pregnant, so it works. I'll give it another 6 months or so to see if the pain will ease in time when my body gets used to it. If not, will get it removed with no doubt."


"Works great to kick a opiate habit but a f**king nightmare to get off of.  I've had to stop because I'm pregnant and I haven't slept more than 2 hours a night in a week, go back and forth with having diarrhea and being constipated from being so dehydrated, my skin won't stop crawling.  It's a nightmare and I've only been taking it for about 3 or 4 months and was down to a 1/4 of a strip, skipping days when I could.  I wish I just would have detoxed the hard way for a few days."


"Stg 2b or stg 3 according to onc nurse. Invasive lob cancer. One yr on letrozol.just had bone cancer scare but negative bone scan. Hot flashes, sweats, bone fracture, not injury. Some bleeding from genital tissues. Also had 10 lb weight loss. Anyone else with bleeding and weight loss? Lots of back pain, already had osteo earth."


"Ok, we all know that people respond differently to meds BUT this is my story.  I was on the verge of losing my husband of 24 years.  Feeling I had hit rock bottom I decided to see 1 more doctor.  I had taken every antidepressant under the sun in the last 20 years for "anxiety and depression" and I had high hopes every single time.....nothing was working and I was getting worse.  My doctor started me on lithium 300mg twice daily.  I can honestly say I felt a huge difference after the first 24 hours.  My mind was QUIET and I felt calm.  No racing thoughts, no panic attacks, no overthinking anything.....just peace.  I have been on it for 2.5 wks now and I FINALLY feel normal again.  I am more considerate and loving to my family <3"


"I've been on 300 mg shots once a week for six weeks. My plaques are a little thinner but no clearance. I'm also on a topical and mexotrexate. Humira and embrel didn't work either. I'm sad because I got my hopes up 2 years ago when I sought treatment."


"I was given 2 tablets the first day followed by 1 tablet for the next four days. I was coughing so hard I could not get out of bed. The only thing it did for me, now on day 10, is it eased up the cough so that I did not lose my breath and vomit phlegm but I just called the doctor again today because I am still coughing up very thick Phlegm. It helped but it did not work that great at all. Now the Doctor is calling in Tessalon pearls. We will see if that works."


"I am on my 2nd Mirena. I am 36 yrs old, no kids and never want kids.  The insertion was very painful, but tolerable. I did tear up a little from the pain and I took deep breathes to help get thru it. I love the Mirena. I did not gain weight from it, however, I am a runner. No acne, no abdominal pain. I am spotting brown, but that's normal after insertion..for the 1st couple weeks. I did not get my period the first time around, so I am hoping the same this time. Not having a period for 5 years is amazing. This alone is worth the uncomfortable pain during insertion. Take 800mg of ibuprofen 1 hour before..it helps a little bit. But you still feel it...feels like the most painful cramping, you can ever imagine. Ugh. Ps. #never been in labor."


"It took around 6 weeks before, I for sure could tell it improved the quality of life. It has stopped me from having a surgery I didn't want to do.  I have noticed no side effects at all."


"Helps me feel normal. Generic lisinopril caused severe dizziness."


"I've been taking Strattera for half a month now, I am 34, and it seems to be doing a pretty good job of increasing my attention span.  I have some, but not many signs of decreased sexual appetite, depression, or suicidal thoughts.  I HAVE, however, noticed that I am biting my tongue on the right side of my mouth and when I forget to take the medicine this stops.  It usually happens when I am concentrating, and while I was typing this review, I found myself doing it again. This is very strange, as I haven't heard about it. Also, when I get the shivers, I notice that they now linger at the top of my scalp. I am assuming this has something to do with increased blood flow in your brain or some such thing."


"I have mild/moderate rosacea with no bumps. My dermatologist recommended I try a new topical gel called Mirvaso and I started using it every day in January 2014. At first, everything was going awesome. Would reapply when redness/heat would start. Side effects gradually took hold. Rebound redness was 10x worse than originally. My face would randomly flush. It would burn so bad and go completely cherry red. My original problem was nowhere near that bad. Eventually, I got weeping rashy patches all over my face. The gel reduced in effectiveness to the big mess it caused. I finally weaned myself off this vicious cycle in September 2014. Had to walk around looking like a freak. Took forever to return to normal. NOT WORTH IT!"


"I was switched to Microgestin last May after years on Yaz. I have extremely heavy bleeding/pain/fatigue that lasted 21+ days with 1 week break, then repeat. Yaz stopped my periods for years, but they started again, so I switched. Microgestin seemed like overkill, but it has stopped the bleeding and I was instructed to skip the placebos. I have gained 15 lbs that won't budge, but as I've never been overweight, dr. dismissed this concern. Mood-wise, I’ve always been laid-back but I find that it’s easier to become overwhelmed. However, I have more worry about in general so I cannot solely attribute anxiety to it.  Over all, it’s doing what I need it to do, but as I continue to sort out my lady problems, I would like to back down."


"Hi , I got Clindamycin 300mg 3 times a day.
I have swollen skin infection on my cheek.
I have read the reviews here before I took the capsule. I was too scared to take it, but due to my infection, I must go through with it. I am on my fourth capsule.
I took some of reviewers advice, in which I drank a glass of water before my meal- eat half of my meal- then took the capsule- with glass of water then finishes my meal. Drink another glass of water after.
Not to lay down for an hour. Better a little bit more time cause it takes time to digest it.
Then about two hours later I ate yoghurt- activia probiotic.
I take my capsule in the morning, noon, and evening around 6-7 p.m.
Then I have plenty of time to rest over night."


"I will be starting my third month on Nuva Ring tomorrow. I'm not in love with this birth control and might discontinue. The first month was great, no symptoms at all. On the third week I took the ring out as directed and started my period the next day. This second month hasn't been so great. I pretty much began having pregnancy symptoms. I have nausea, I vomited once, and tender breasts. I just feel slightly sick and have been for the last 2 1/2 weeks. This week I am off the ring and I was supposed to put a ring in tomorrow but had to go to the doctor to get a pregnancy test because I have completely missed my period. I'm not thank goodness, but these side effects have been getting worse.I have been getting headaches and I am moody brat lately. Not good"


"I got my IUD after having my second kid, by a doctor that was very pushy about it. She told me I was being over dramatic about the pain of insertion and sent me on my way, something felt "wrong" and about a month later, but ultrasound showed that it was in place. I lost my insurance until recently, and I just went to get it taken out after 2.5 years of pain. Turns out my uterus is inverted and too small to fit an IUD comfortably. I wish they wouldn't treat these things like a one size fits all deal and push them up everyone they can."


"It kept me from getting pregnant, but gave me horrible cramps, even in between periods. My mood was out of control. I had extreme anger and depression, I've never felt so crazy in my life. Mild headaches, but they were daily. Lost my sex drive, and got a yeast infection like immediately. Couldn't eat anything, which may sound like a dream come true, but it was really unhealthy. Forcing myself to eat made me nauseous. Also had vaginal dryness, felt really dehydrated, and was constipated. Definitely not the right pill for me. Good luck ladies, I hope you have a better experience on this.
* Take it at the same time every day or you'll get nauseous!"


"I began using this product a little over a month ago. At first it was working I had fewer zits but they were not all gone. Then out of nowhere I started breaking out like crazy again! Epiduo burns my skin and dries it. I tolerated those symptoms at first because the product worked but now it's really no longer worth it.
I've tried Proactive and countless over the counter medication. Nothing seems to work for me."


"I use Frova to prevent menstrual migraines.  I take it when I feel a migraine coming and I know I’m close to my period.  Then continue taking it as directed, usually with some Ibuprofen, too, and it eliminates the migraine.  I used to be in bed for 1-2 days around my period because I got such a bad migraine, but now I have it under control.  Also, I have not experienced any side effects.  I order Frova from Canada Drugs because it is expensive even with insurance.  Local pharmacy co-pay was around $500.  Online order was $240."


"Had total knee replacement 2 weeks ago. This drug along with with other pain killers have done a very good job for my pain.  I highly recommend it for severe pain."


"I started taking this for sinuses, I really love this stuff, my wife does to because I stay stiff and she really loves that, other wise I have no complaint. Call my Dr. about the stiff and she called me in to see her, she couldn't believe it , she asked me if I was taking any kind of drug for my ( you know what I'm talking about ) stiffness and I told her no, she still didn't believe me and wanted to try it out to see if it was just as good as the other drugs for stiffness "


"I took Relpax today for the second time, took it once before. It has given me No relief what so ever and I'm experiencing the same side effects as the first time I took it. Before you wonder why I would take it a second time, I thought perhaps I had just been in so much pain before I would give it another go. I have severe back pain, numbness and tingling in my fingers and ringing in my ears. Also, the migraine seems to have gotten worse. Now my eye has so much pressure, it feels like it's bugging out of my face. I will NEVER take this drug again."


"I rate this 10/10 because I started using it with no preconceptions that I would have a full head of hair within a week. I used this for about a month before I got my first compliment after 3 months use (2xday) I saw my family and they all thought I had had a hair transplant, although the front of my head is still hairless the back of my hair is very much thicker. All in all I would say this works if you are looking to thicken up the hair you have remaining."


"I had been on the pill for about 1 year.  The first 3 months were pretty bad, experienced nausea and stomach pains.  In the following months my acne cleared, my period pains were less and periods were shorter.  I feel I retain water and it shows I gained 10lbs.  I was more moody and worried about things that made me feel crazy.  I just recently decided to stop using the pill I want to get back to my normal self.  "


"I took it for at least half a year but it really did nothing for me."


"Can't live without it! I have at least one migraine a month and this medication is always successful in bringing me relief. The side effect I experience is grogginess while it is taking effect, but once the medicine wears off, the fatigue is gone along with my migraine."


"I have major Acid Reflux which dramatically disrupts sleep/completely prohibits my ability to fall asleep. My esophogus began being negative effected from the the aciid reflux whiich would in turn give me esophogeal spasms thus messing with my heart rate...you ever try to fall asleep while your body is shaking...near impossible. So I went to the ER with an irregular heart rate due to these spasms and the doc prescribed me 30 mg of Temazapam. I had not had a night's rest like that in years....years. Sure, it knocked me the hell out for 8 hours straight and when I awoke, I need a shower and a cup of coffee before having my wits but after that it was all good. This was back in Dec 2014; I have been taking them each night since. It is July 2015"


"I have a bulging disc in my lower neck and a herniated disc in my lower back. My pain level is very high. Percocet started to not work and I was put on the Butrans patch 20 milligrams. Within 36 hours I was so nauseous that I was vomiting. And when I wasn't vomiting I was in a constant state of wanting to vomit. It also created Great Depression and jerky movements in my body when I was trying to sleep. I would not recommend this medication for someone who has a weak stomach. It did help with my pain but the side effects were too great to stay on the patch."


"My 10 yr old daughter had the flu mist for the first time usually she gets the injection,  but her doctor ran out of the injection So I said ok give her the mist. NEVER AGAIN!! We will stick to injections from now on. She got the mist on 10/9/15 & the next day she woke up with pain in her legs and weakness of her body & a  bad cold, sneezing a lot & muccus, but by night she was coughing and stuffy trouble breathing.  The only reason she had no fever was because I immediately gave her motrin 400 that her doctor gave her. I don't like the mist & that's the last time she will get the mist.. If you're here looking for reviews to see if u should get the mist or shot the best advice I can give u is stick to the shot, "


"Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy ETS surgery at T2 to treat severe palmar and facial sweating has been very effective, with about a 90% reduction of hand sweat, and 100% reduction in facial sweating. However, there is a caveat, sweating in other parts of my body increased following the procedure. Also, compensatory sweating on my face and chest (below the nipples) becomes extreme when eating spicy or tart foods. The Catapres substantially decreases this compensatory sweating."


"I have taken this drug for the past 10 years for back issues (discs bulging and ruptured). I have not increased my dosage in the past 6 years and the ER extended release has worked wonders. One 20mg pill in the morning and I am good 95% of all days. Occasionally I need one additional pill if I have been overly active. This pill allows me to live a fairly normal life."


"I am on Carbatrol and Keppra and added 400mg of Vimpat about 1 year ago.  I do not beleive that my complex partial seizures improved over this time period. As side effects go its not a bad medicine at all, but I do not like the fact that I can't remember simple words in the English language and putting together sentences is a little more tricky."


"Lantus is great, but am going to try Levemir as their delivery system looks better.  Lanus Solostar is fine for strong, large handed people, but if you have arthritis or are older, it is a chore to deliver - its too hard to push and too big to stretch your hand to insure it doesn't slip."


"Saw pain Doc went over all my test, MRI results and did an exam. Should have known he was a Nucynta ER pusher by all the posters in the office. Started me off at 150 mg x2 a day , and in the beginning it seem to work alone with Dilaudid fir BT pain. Saw the Doc 2 days before surgery and 3 months on Nucynta ER I told him it wasn't really working for me he said well let's UP your dose to 200 mg 2x a day. I had surgery no issues. Until I started back on the Nucynta ER. I had  hallucinations, loss of memory and violent rage. I don't remember the last two days I was taking the medication. I ended up in the ER 3 days after spine surgery cause I went into a fit of rage. Pain Doc was called he said it was the Nucynta and to stop taking it. Bad drug"


"My doctor gave me some free samples. I researched it and saw pictures. I also took pictures before & after. I was very impressed. About 1/2 hour after application my face looked normal with no redness. I had forgotten what my face looked like before Rosacea. I couldn't stop looking at my face. I could now see my freckles very clearly. My only question is how does it interact with moisturizers/make-up and if the effect is diminished by others creams used on top of Mirvaso.
For now I can say I'm exited about this product and that finally there is something out there that actually makes a difference. Too bad it doesn't last all day."


"I've been on pain meds for 30  years. Changed to Opana ER 20 x 2. This made a large difference but still had breakthrough pain so DR added Opana IR 10mg. These I break up into thirds, halves, or quarters as needed.  I couldn't use Norco because of breathing problems. This dosage isn't perfect but I'm no longer whining every time I get in or out of the car. 2 major surgeries coming over the summer. I hope Opana continues to work."


"Within 1 and a half months my skin was looking SO MUCH clearer. I went from having little bumps and small cysts all over my cheeks to mostly smooth skin with a few bumps and scars. I rated this 8/10 because I still have some reoccurring bumps, as this product mostly just got rid of my open acne versus preventing more from happening."


"Have been on Metformin for years and up to 1000 with an A1C of 8.7 currently.  Glucose at doctor's office 87 one day and at next follow up with family doctor was 186,,,endocrinologist prescribed Actos to get A1C down.  Also on other meds.  Lipitor, Cosaar for BP, and new drug, Otezla for psoriatic arthritis along with UVB treatments.  Taking vitamins to support heart, supplements, calcium, vitamin C, B supplements, acidophilus, co-Q, ear drops and ointments dimethesone and ketacodnisone from dermatologist for psoriasis. Had adjustment period with Metformin. Hands have been extremely painful with swelling and severe joint pain and swelling concentrated in left hand, ring finger.  New Rheumatologist recently diagnosed psoriatic arthritis."


"The insertion I had a awful time with, it really hurt me and I cramped and bled awhile. I have always has pretty clear skin until I got this, I have a new breakout EVERY day!!!! Its annoying and they are whiteheads and dont' go away! So I am trying to get mine removed or get on a face medication because I'm getting married. Other than the terrible acne, you never know its there"


"Worked really well for me, never had an issue"


"I have been smoke free for a little over a year. I used Chantix and experienced some side effects. I kind of manipulated my use of it and would take it every other day... that helped some. Once I had been without a cigarette for an entire week, I quit Chantix. The medicine really works and being smoke free is well worth the temporary side effects."

"My dentist suggested using it regularly after nothing specific could be found with any teeth. It has resolved my problem and feels good everyday and has no unpleasant after taste like some of the off the shelf fluoride toothpastes."


"This medicine worked great for me in reducing my prolacting producing tumor"


"I have had Nexplanon for 1.5 years. After implanting I was bruised for a week but it wasn't very painful. I did gain 15lbs the first 3 months and have yet to lose it (and I'm a runner). I think the weight gain is not common but it does happen. Better then the alternative I guess."


"I've had the worst acne and blackheads since I was 12 or 13.  I use Cerave Hydrating Cleanser to cleanse my skin followed by Epiduo in the morning. I moisturize with Cerave A.M. moisturizing lotion. At night I cleanse and scrub off dead skin, and use Retin-A Micro Gel followed by the Cerave P.M. moisturizing lotion. Let me start off by saying that I got discouraged the first week because my skin burned, started to peel, got flaky and just plain out looked like a red tomato. My first thought was I will not use this no more. I stopped for two days and just moisturized to heal my skin. I started back up again and told myself pain is just a physical feeling that the mind can overcome. I'm pulling through it and guess what? Its working !"


"I tried Chantix the first time and did not complete it.  Tried it a second time with diligent determination.  It has now been 2 years, 2 months & 28 days with 100% success.  I can truthfully say that I do not miss smoking & have become one of those people that cannot tolerate second hand smoke.  I am not vocal about it as I was once one of "those" folks.  I had tried nearly everything thru the years and Chantix was my lifesaver."


"Very sensitive to medication. Can not
take histamines. Finally have outgrown
allergies. Off and on about 20 yrs."


"My young daughter suffers from Tourette Syndrome, OCD and Anxiety. The Anxiety is a recent thing. She has never been treated before for her tics (TS) or OCD (which actually is relatively new as well). They started her on Lexapro and her anxiety was heightened as well as decreasing her appetite. Which is not good since her obsession is NOT throwing up from food. So for her, this medicine did not work. She also complained of being tired, more nausea than usual, etc. She wasn't on it long either. We just made the decision that we could not afford her to be worse. She is now on something else - fingers crossed that it'll work!"


"Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12% oral rinse should also be dispensed in half pint bottles as a pint bottle is way too much for patients to use after many dental surgeries.

After having dental surgery above an implant of tooth #30 due to an infection & deep pockets, I was instructed to apply 1/2 once twice a day for two weeks to the surgical site with dental sponges provided by my dentist.

Following the directions I used 14 ounces out of 32 ounces leaving 28 ounces that I cannot use.

Dispensing more than a half pint was:
~ wasteful,
~ costs twice as what is needed,
~ & using or disposing of what is left Is harmful to myself & our environment

Dispensing  2x of what is needed is irresponsible & adds to our countries ever rising  medical costs"


"I was taking Indapamide for 25 yrs to control my blood pressure until last year when I developed AdFib and my blood pressure rocketed.  After struggling with various beta blocker , ACE inhibitors and an ARB I decided life was not worth living due to the side effects and went back to Indapamide only, where by after an initial large increase of my blood pressure this came down to reasonable level (138/95) but really that is not the best.  My GP has recommended half a 25mg tablet each day together with my Indapamide and my blood pressure is now 125/74 so success.  At present I have no undue side effect but only time will tell, so I am happy at this.  Going back for blood test in two weeks."


"I had my first seizure when I was 13 years old. It scared my parents and I to death. After that I started experiancing seizures every month. Almost all of my seizures (except 3) have happened while I am asleep. I am 29 now and all the EEGs and EKGs come back normal. I have been taking Keppra now for 6 months and I have not had any Grand Mal seizures. I take 1000 mg everynight after dinner and I make it a point to get at least 7 hours of sleep every night. I have not experienced any mood swings or depression.  The good definitely out ways the bad.... Many blessings"


"Oxybutynin works very well at taking the urgency of needing the bathroom away.  I am so pleased with that part of it but the side effects have become unbearable. I am severely tired due to insomnia, I could sleep all day everyday and then the foggy brain seems to be getting worse . I also have the tingle feet which just about drives me crazy - omg - I can't stand it. I am on 5mg twice a day, I have tried taking it at night and afternoon then morning and afternoon. Afternoon and night and nothing changes. I am so tired of being tired. I am thinking a doctor visit is in the best future. Sometimes I think sleeping on the toilet would be a lot better than these side effects."


"I love it, I was on the pill for years before Nexplanon. After I had my daughter I got it inserted about 6 weeks postpartum Nov. 2012. I had about 3 weeks of constant bleeding about a month after but it gradually lightened up then stopped altogether. I spot about twice a month now, each time only being 2 to 3 days. No more cramping, but I am getting some nausea around the time of the spotting, but nothing major. I love it! I would definitely recommend."


"Had to immediately clean it off my lips. The burning from this cream was far too intense for me. I'm 35 weeks pregnant so my immune system is already compromised. This is the worst cold sore outbreak I've had, where pills, supplements, home remedies, and Abreva hasn't helped. I pray that it clears up soon."


"I posted in Oct. My 9 yr. Old has Aspergers and my life was hard.
It is now the last week of month 2 on 10mg. of Lexapro. OMG!!! Is this what normal really feels like!? Please.. if you have anxiety and possible depression give this drug a chance. I feel like a new person. I laugh at shows now, I have a sense of humor again. My spouse is spending more time around me since I am more pleseant to be around. I cooked a small Thx giving dinner for 4 from  scratch in 4 hours without stressing it. I can watch sad movies and feel  the emotions but not cry through the whole show or movie.  Find myself interested in things I used to enjoy but stopped. I am glad I hung in and listened to others who said to give it 6-8 weeks for full effect.They were right.:)"


"12 year old son been using Qvar 80 for 2 years. Been very good with no side effects."


"Works well for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. The obsessions seem to roll off, like water off a lotus pad. Obsessions are less frequent as well. A few side effects: less frequent bowel movements, some tiredness until you get used to it, lowers sex drive, and you have to work harder to motivate self. BUT it really does relieve the torment of the mind."


"I am a 25 year old female who was diagnosed with Crohn's almost 2 months ago. Pentasa has helped to relieve the very severe stomach cramping I was experiencing before my diagnosis. This is the first treatment my doctor has given me but after a month of taking 4-250mg capsules 4 times a day (in combination with Budesonide 9m) I finally feel comfortable after eating.  I'm not noticing any side effects yet. Maybe I'm lucky though after reading some of these other reviews. I wish I didn't have to take 16 of them each day, but to be able to stand up after a meal is wonderful for someone who used to keel over screaming and crying with a rock hard stomach after eating!"


"I have been suffering for years with ibs c and d,I was in Severe pain every day had no social life fed up depressed.until I took this drug amitrPtyline I urge any one suffering to please try this drug it works has totally changed my life all I take is 20mg a night i can basically eat what I want before I could not eat wheat, dairy and now I can please try this drug 10 out of 10 I know what it is like to suffer you feel like life is not fair that you are always feeling unwell when all your family and friends are fine,please try this drug and good luck"


"I've been on Yaz for over a year now. At first, it was wonderful for me because it helped eliminate the painful cramps I was suffering before and I had no side effects. I lost weight and had no acne.
BUT, for the past 2 months I've been extremely moody, depressed, tired and just not myself. I can't wait to go see my doctor to switch! It's affecting my social life big time."


"Been on Tegretol 200mg twice a day for partial seizures. It's wonderful, it's really helped. I'm down from 10 seizures a day to 8. Have tried everything else hopefully getting there."


"I was on this for 4 1/2 years, right up to a very high dose.  I got the side effect of constantly feeling hungry yet never feeling full, no matter how much I ate.  That immediately caused me to gain 10 lbs. a month for 6 months:  60 pounds!  It also gave me the side effects of major depression and a generally unpleasant mood overall.

It was of the usual average effectiveness in controlling my seizures, which began due to neurological brain damage in a traffic accident.

Note:  This medication is highlyY dangerous to pregnant women.  It will cause permanent damage to their fetus."


"Reason for getting Mirena:
I am 40 yrs old, have endometriosis & terrible periods (the kind that kept me home 1-2 days a month in bed with cramps and bleeding), & no plans to have kids. On paper, I am the perfect candidate for the IUD.
Insertion was THE WORST PAIN OF MY LIFE.  Fortunately, it lasted only a few minutes.  My legs got pretty tired during the procedure and started shaking some.  My Dr encouraged me to relax more, so I literally let my legs fall open in the stirrups (imagine knees falling to the sides, towards the floor).  THAT HELPED HUGELY.  Once I let my legs fall open and to the sides, my inner thighs released, and my pelvic floor relaxed.  If you've never given birth it will probably hurt!!!"


"I have been on so many medications that have not worked until I was prescribed Latuda. Everything changed. I feel normal now. It's the best medication for bipolar that I have ever encountered."


"My face, hands and feet get numb and I don't know what to do. I'm in school and freak out. I'm a hairdresser so I can't just stop and breath in a bag. This medicine worked for me. Hope it works for you."


"Love this medication.  I take it with two other mood stabilizers, an antidepressant, and another when required antipsychotic.  This works wonders.  I do not get tired on it and I typically take 600mg, I have gone up to 1000mg before when needed.  Definitely chills me out.  I do not get akathisia on this one, like I do all the other antipsychotics.  Overall just wonderful.  If you have had issues with akathisia before on other medicines, this would be the one to try."


"I've been on Nuvaring for almost a month. The first week I started on my period and it lasted only 4 days compared to 7 days. I felt sick for about a week plus breast tenderness. But I've had no weight gain, no nothing after the first week! I love it. And if your wondering if you can feel it ... Well you can't if you put it high in your vagina it did slip down during my first week but other than that good! My partner wasn't able to feel the ring either. Nuvaring works for me."


"Couldn't open my hand; swelling on part of the hand; extreme tiredness; vomiting and diarrhea last day; some ringing in the ears; had back pain after finishing - hard to get up from low seat, wonder if it's related to the medicine? Wouldn't recommend this medicine for anyone and feel it should be taken off the market"


"Started at 25 for about two weeks, then went to 50. Each dosage change brought back a few symptoms, but all are gone in a few days. Zoloft helped me a lot, I had never taken an anti depressant before so I was nervous. My intrusive thoughts are gone one month later!! Don't read to much into this page, it caused me to have anxiety/panic attacks. My biggest problem was swallowing, but that was due to anxiety, I didn't want to take the anxiety Meds on top of zoloft, so I just waited the attacks out, last max two hours. Just know to gradually increase your dosage and to check in with prescribing person when you have concerns.  Side effects: nausea, fatigue, loose stools, blurry vision in morning, breast felt numb (gone now), dry mouth (gum!!)."


"Started to take Gabapentin for nerve pain 3x100mg daily. Even this low dose gave me headaches and migraine. I increased my intake of water and as the days went by I was able to increase the dosage as suggested by my doctor and the headaches ceased. The pharmacist did suggest that Gabapentin can dehydrate and dehydration can lead to headaches."


"Worsens depression, fatigue, increased appetite, weight gain, bloating, constant mild fever, headaches, unstable mood swings, decrease in sex drive overall but spikes in demand for sex at certain times (unstable). It did work as a birth control and did not worsen or help with my slight acne. I was on Bupropion 300mg for a few months before I started Reclipsen. It countered the positive effects of Bupropion; increased energy, decreased appetite."


"For the past several years I have been trying to find the right balance to deal with the anxiety and depression of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have been on Citalopram for the depression and that seems to work well. It has been hard to find an antipsychotic that works and currently I'm on Latuda. I'm also on a mood stabilizer Lamictal. My Dr added Deplin. Long story I wound up without my Latuda and Deplin for about 6 weeks. In 6 weeks I was off the charts on the ups and my old patterns were popping up. Not good. I went back on the Latuda and began evening out but still had too much up. Now I've been back on the Deplin for a week and I feel completely numb. Trouble sleeping at the right times, trouble being awake or at least alert at the right times."


"I was prescribed 25mg dapsone 1 per day. for LeukosyVasculitis. Took it 10 days. Each day I took it red spots increased all over body. On day 9 and 10 I was at Atlantic ocean on beach 2 hours each day. Didn't know it would have such adverse affect. I developed severe inflamed red spots and extreme discomfort. Called the doctor, he advised to stop the dapsone and prescribed prednisone 15 mg twice a day for 3 weeks, with the intent to stop the spots. I applied Aloe Vera gel which seemed to relieve the discomfort on leg. The spots are darkening and look like the purpura pictures you see if you google it. Am I scarred forever? is there a natural cure?  They did rule out autoimmune disease."


"I have tried MANY different kinds of birth control and had been off for about a year and half when I started up on Chateal.  I am in my THIRD WEEK of the pill and have experienced extreme FATIGUE, mood swings as well as breast tenderness/shooting pain, and constipation.  I am hoping these things will smooth over, but these are the worst initial side effects I've experienced with an oral contraceptive.  So far not so good."


"Where has this medication been hiding? I've suffered from depression for 18 years, having to change medicines every couple years and usually never feeling too good...just pulling myself through everyday. I've been on Zoloft, Effexor, Prozac, Cymbalta with low dose Abilify and Wellbutrin. Finally a month ago a new Doctor suggested the EMSAM patch.  I feel like the darkness has been lifted.  I have energy, can concentrate and actually look forward to doing or planning things. Even the Adderall I had once taken to help increase my energy level didn't do what this patch is doing.  EMSAM has changed not only my life, but my family's as well."


"I also used it while weaning myself off of oxycodone. 10mg three times a day, and am now off. At the moment I am using a 0.2 Patch and it helps a lot."


"Over priced for what is essentially 4 Advil with a Pepcid."


"I have been using Pristiq for about two years.  First year was a whole new life.  Past year has shown a gradual reduction in effect, to the point where we have tried increased dosages to no avail.  Looks like this great medicine has an efficacy life, and I am experiencing the end of it for me."


"I was prescribed this to help with an inflamed joint in my foot.  Historically, I had taken Aleve, but didn't like the drug because I felt it didn't really work.  Last time I took it, it work in the 11th hour of 12 hurt effectiveness time range and was gone by hour 12. But the doctor insisted I take it this time.  I took it for a little more than a week and on the 10th day, I woke up to horrible chest pains.  I'm 36 years old and don't believe I have a heart condition.  I stopped taking the pills and the pain in my chest lessened towards the end of the day.  However, my blood pressure was through the roof, when I'm characteristically low, and my resting pulse rate was 114.  I also spiked a fever in the same day.
Days later, still symptoms"


"I have been on many different birth control methods for years now. None of then have worked for me. But when my doctor prescribed me Levora I was like "hmm, but I'm not a pill popper. Okay I will try this." Levora is the best thing that has ever happened to be. I now get my period for 3 days versus 7 days! I love this pill and I get no side effects."


"So far I love this product!
I've had mild but persistent acne for years. After finishing one round of accutane and seeing minimal results with terrible side effects I decided to stop treatment. Soon after my acne came back again with a small amount of cystic acne but many, many small red bumps all over.

Finally my derm gave me Clindamycin 1.2% and Tretinoin .025% gel. After one and a half months I see great improvement!!

I recommend gel, it leaves a nice, smooth finish.

I BARELY had an initial breakout, which is uncommon for me. Yes I did break out but nothing worse than how it was before. It is drying so I highly suggest using it every other night and using it as a spot treatment on very dry days. 60% or so of my acne is already clear!"


"I had my nexplanon inserted 3 years ago from October 2016. Our experiences are unique to us depending on our environment. For me I had the implant inserted a few months before I left to college. College alone is an emotional roller coaster and having this implant just inserted did not mix well. I became very moody and depressed. I visited with a therapist weekly. However I was also in an environment that was new to me and away from friends and family. I too spotted for many months, but within the last 2 years I began to regulate every 28 days. As a birth control it does the job, no pregnancies/scares, however if you're an emotional person or get agitated with spotting I would not recommend it. I will have a nexplanon reinsertion soon."


"I've been on birthcontrol for 15 years. I stopped to get pregnant and my doctor started me on Loestrin after I decided to start birthcontrol again. I developed two blood clots within 45 days. Blood clots are very serious and once you have then they increase your risk of having more. I'm currently on a blood thinner and pray I don't get a PE."


"It helped in the beginning. The first 6 months were great.  I started cramping more after each period though.  And now I have pain every day even when I take my pill.  Still worth a try, plus it's nice not to have that many periods."


"I get chest colds and asthmatic symptoms in the beginning of the winter for my entire life. This inhaler works better for me than the older ones I'm glad I have it even if I only need it once or twice a year..this is by far the best inhaler I have ever used"


"After trying 4 different birth controls, I was ready to give up when my doctor recommended this.  I do not get migraines.  I did gain 5 lbs and it does make me very bloated. The cramps were very painful but anything over those massive migraines I used to get with the previous pills."


"Parnate is the second-greatest thing to ever happen to my brain, second only to ECT. I started it in the hospital. Before Parnate I was spending about 22 hours per day in bed. Now I am in bed just at night. I have started to laugh again. I'm looking for work after being unable to hold down a job for over 2 years. My parents see the improvement too and they are really pleased.

Just be careful. Everyone talks about the food interactions, but you also got to be aware of the medication interactions, those can be deadly. I had a hypertensive crisis as a result of a drug interaction that nearly ended things. Before Parnate I would have viewed that as a missed opportunity, but now I want to live again!"


"I have used this for at least 10 years and is the only eye drops I can get that truly works!"


"I think it's making my symptoms worse. I went from going to the bathroom most frequently at night to all day after starting Salofalk enemas and suppositories."


Acetaminophen / caffeine / isometheptene mucate

"I have tried every over the counter medicine and nothing worked. My Dr. even prescribed me 1000mg ibuprofen and that didn't work either. I got a migraine so bad that I had to be taken to the ER, after numerous tests and head scan the Dr. told me to try Prodrin. It was amazing that after only 10-15 mins of taking only 1 pill the headache was gone! I recommend that anyone who suffers from severe migraine and or tension headaches should talk to their Dr about getting this medicine. It works wonders and I personally didn't experience any side effects."


"Was on day 5 of a left sided migraine, after been given tramadol which only made me faint every time I stood up was taken to emergency room. Given Toradol through injection only slightly touched the excruciating pain in my head. Was given morphine which proved more successful. However the next day I am back to a full blown headache with pins and needles down face. Zilch results ehh.."


"I'm on my second week of Accutane 40mg. So far no side effects or initial breakout. My lips are dryer but easily fixable with Chapstick. I've been using jojoba oil as a moisturizer as well. I've had extremely minor pimples appear and then go away immediately and no scarring. So far it's been great and hopefully continues to do so!"


"I have been taking zoloft for years to treat  OCD Depression and anxiety. It works great for these however  my orgasm take forever and are significantly less stimulating. Should u try to go off these med from time to time to see if you even need them anymore? Or try a newer med with less sexual side effects."


"I'm still new to this medication, but it has been life-changing! I am able to do things that have been impossible the last few years, thanks to Vimovo.  Methotrexate made me sick, Celebrex caused heart palpitations, but -- so far -- no side effects from the Vimovo. I highly recommend anyone with rheumatoid arthritis ask his/her doctor about using it as a possible treatment method!"


"I would have to agree that Vyvanse has helped extremely with my Adult ADHD and Social Phobia. It is a lot smoother than Adderall XR and doesn't upset my stomach like Concerta used to do. I also take it with Lexapro for my generalized anxiety disorder and have yet to experience any contraindications."


"I am a 38 year old female.  I had my thyroid removed about 7 months ago because I had thyroid cancer.  I have been on Synthroid for about five months.  My endocrinologist has a great deal of experience, so we found my correct dose after only two tries.  Once I was at my correct replacement dose, I felt great.  I feel just well, if not better, than I did before I was diagnosed. I am counting off a point only because Synthroid (though this is the case with all brands of levothyroxine) is a nuisance to take everyday, and it requires some planning if one must (as I do) take calcium and iron supplements every day as well."


"This is the second time that I have used Chantix to quit smoking.  Both times it worked great.  The dreams are vivid and strange, in my case they were not scary dreams but unusual settings and occurrences.  I did however have profound and voluminous gas.

I am now 40 days smoke free and have stopped taking the medication by weaning my self off slowly.  I am experiencing much more intense psychological cravings centered around triggers.   These cravings are very intense albeit short in duration.

I may have come off of the medication too early or may have weaned myself off incorrectly.  I am able to control these cravings for the time being."


"have had nexplanon since 12/11/12. It was fine for awhile, until my boyfriend started complaining that we never have sex anymore. Then I realized that we really didn't. I have always been a tad moody, and already had depression issues. Nexplanon made them worse. The worst thing of all was that unfortunately my boyfriend started becoming extremely jealous thinking i was having sex with someone else. I couldn't figure out what happened to my sexual appetite for the longest time. Then it dawned on me, it had to be the implant. i didnt have much of a  problem with implanon, just moodiness. I can honestly say if i were not in a relationship, it would probably be great, but starting nexplanon ruined my relationship, and my selfesteem. Too bad."


"After falling ill with major depression this past Spring, my doctor prescribed Lamectil.  I noticed a positive change at 50 mg , and am now up to 75 mgs.  I'm looking forward to titration up to 100 and hope that will be the most effective dose, as with fibromyalgia, I am very sensitive to meds. This med has also changed my life as I became non functional, prior to taking it.  I pray the positive effects last, as I was in a very dark place without it.  I take my dose in the morning, as I was having difficulty sleeping at night ( and take melatonin and benzos) for that. My appetite has also not yet gotten back to normal, but I am taking in enough calories to maintain the weight I lost during the depression."


"I've had the worst acne and blackheads since I was 12 or 13.  I use Cerave Hydrating Cleanser to cleanse my skin followed by Epiduo in the morning. I moisturize with Cerave A.M. moisturizing lotion. At night I cleanse and scrub off dead skin, and use Retin-A Micro Gel followed by the Cerave P.M. moisturizing lotion. Let me start off by saying that I got discouraged the first week because my skin burned, started to peel, got flaky and just plain out looked like a red tomato. My first thought was I will not use this no more. I stopped for two days and just moisturized to heal my skin. I started back up again and told myself pain is just a physical feeling that the mind can overcome. I'm pulling through it and guess what? Its working !"


"Scary!!! Was only able to be on this drug for a few weeks.  It gradually increased depression to such a degree that I  almost admitted myself to the ER for depression watch. I've never felt depression like this. It peaked in the morning and let up by the afternoon. (3-4pm). It's now the third day since I took it and it is lifting more and more every day. Never again!"


"I've been on Trinessa for 2 months now and I seem to be nauseated all the time! I've noticed that I'm getting mild acne and experience minor fatigue. Thinking about switching."


"I am about to start my third pack of Chateal. Background on me: I'm 27 years old, married, and have had one child (almost 6yo), no other pregnancies. Before I had my daughter I had a very regular cycle. For the past few years things have become very irregular. My Dr. Has run many tests and doesn't have  an explanation for it, but decided to have me try b/c pills to regulate my cycle. The first month was not great. I spotted for 2+ weeks. No other symptoms to speak of. This past month I got my period 24 hours after taking my  first green (placebo) pill. Had an average period in terms of length and flow. No spotting! So I think I've adjusted to it. Hoping this month goes smoothly as well."


"After months of dry cough, finally ended up with severe allergic reaction including urticaria (hives) over most of my body for four months and got angioedema - tongue and face swelled up."


"I am 22 and have suffered from migraines since I was 11. I finally got a primary doctor who would actually listen to me, I was prescribed this medication. The first night I took it I felt nothing so I figured no side effects. The next day I still was in pain and took my medication that night I had a very severe reaction to it and was taken to the ER... I felt like I had a million bugs crawling through my skin and I couldn't see clearly. I have friends who this has worked for but for me it did not"


"It makes my eyes very dry but I sleep very well when using it."


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"I tasted the suprep this morning an in-service - doesn't taste the best in the world, but I can drink a small amount of almost anything. Much better than the 1/2 gallon or the FULL GALLON as I took for my prep. "


"I have been using Axiron (60 mg daily) for two months now. Before I started my testosterone level was around 430, which is a little low for a 40 year old male (has been as low as 190). I was doing the injections, but the constant ups and downs were terrible. Needless to say I was optimistic when told about Axiron, but it's proven to be short lived. I  had my testosterone level checked again last week and it dropped to 217! I suspected something was wrong when fatigue started setting back in. Anyway, I went back to my doctor today and he increased the dose to 120 mg daily. Will have my level checked again in 10 weeks, Hope it starts working. "


"I'm on Sucralfate now for over a month but my problems seem to come and go so I can't say it's really working (yet). Also, my stool is sometimes dark green which had me worried. The only place I'm reading about this side effect is here so I hope it's the medicine that's causing it."


"I have been on this product for 6 weeks. It is wonderful I started out at weighing 163 i now weigh 140 my goal weight is 125 I'm almost there!! I usually exercise 5 times a week. Cardio everyday with drinking at least 7 bottles of water a day!"


"On 50 mg and have seen a huge improvement in my migraines. Down to 5 per month."


"I took Actonel for about 6-8 months several years ago.  No gastrointestinal symptoms but I had such very severe joint pains - first shoulder, then elbow, then wrist (joint still enlarged) that I thought I had injured myself.  Each would subside after several weeks.  My physician did take me off Actonel after I complained of this, and I have been taking Fosamax (or generic) for 5 or 6 years, no ill effects."


"I have been using it for 3 years already and I love it. I think it depends on each person, we are all different. I first started taking pills, but I had to stop since the headaches were horrific! and did not want to experience that pain again. The patch has been great."


"I have generalized anxiety disorder. I had only been on Buspar before and it gave me horrible side effects. What I find with Vistaril is that it takes the edge off my anxiety, which means I can actually relax now sometimes the anxiety is not as chronic when I'm on it. I can handle high-stress situations better now, too, because the medicine makes it manageable and diminishes the physical symptoms of anxiety. It's been especially helpful in combination with therapy. And no side effects! Although it's not as effective when I start to feel panic symptoms, it has kept me from having full-blown panic attacks on multiple occasions."


"I've tried several of the common ADD medications, and Concerta works the best for me. I was on it for two years a few years ago. When I am on this, I produce better work in school and in my job. When I am not on it, my mind has significant difficulty compartmentalizing information, storing it and accessing it when I need it. Often I wouldn't even hear what was being said. This creates major anxiety when I can't think clear enough to get more challenging tasks done. What Concerta also does is makes me hyper- focus on small things like constructing a simple email to send to one person - it'll take me 15 minutes to write the 30 second email because I'm overly focused on my every word."


"Am taking Metformin and Glipizide. That was not getting the numbers under 7 so Doctor added Actos. I gained 20 lbs in 3.5 months. Doctor has switched me to Januvia instead of Actos. Only second week but side effects have been minimal (some sleep issues). The big thing is no longer feeling hungry all the time. We'll see how the numbers turn out in 2 months."


"I've had GERD since I was 14 and I had tried all sorts of OTC and prescription medicines. Most of them worked ok, but I would still have to pop a few Tums before I went to bed. After starting on Nexium I feel great! I've yet to have any signs of heartburn and I haven't had any side effects. This is the most expensive prescription I've had but the cost is well worth it."


"I've been taking Topamax for about a year now. I started at 25 mg twice a day and I currently take 100 mg twice a day.  IT IS WONDERFUL. I have had only 2-3 migraines since my Dr upped my dosage 3 months ago. I still get "regular" headaches 4-5 times a day but I can handle those. I was gearing 5--6 migraines a week before Topamax. The side effects are all there but I don't care as long as the migraine pain stays away."


"Phentermine is the only pill that works for weight loss.. I first took it back in the 90's and I went from 251 to 143 yes over a 100 pound weight loss. At the time I saw a Dr. weekly and also got a B12 shot. I had to weigh in weekly so that kept me focused.. Sadly I didn't change my bad eating habits and by 2002 I was back at 211. June 2011 I was 273 pounds.So I jumped started with Phentermine again but this time I only took it for about a month and use it off and on. I changed my eating habits so that I hopefully keep the weight off. The Dr.I went to in 2011 James "Michael" Anchors.gives me Prozac as he says that it helps the drug to work better and last longer (PhenPro). I went from 273 to 173"


"I have intermittent AF and have been using this drug for about 5 years and have done very well on it. Some breakthroughs and I use Metropol to calm things done when necessary. I do not have heart disease as such, just an electrical problem.

Recently, last couple of weeks,have noticed more frequent break throughs and it is taking a lot longer for the heart to settle down. I have done so well on Multag and hope I can work out the issues whatever they are.

I am also on warfarin and home test which has been a godsend.

AFib on line patient groups have been very helpful!"


"Maxalt is the only migraine medicine I have tried, and it works well for me.  When I take it early (before it becomes a full-bloomed migraine), it works within maybe 30 minutes, completely getting rid of the pain.  I do have some side effects: most of the time, I feel a tightening of the throat for about 15 minutes after taking it (my doctor had warned me about that), and if I happen to be a bit tired when taking it, I feel a bit dizzy for a couple of hours.  But it sure beats a 24-hour migraine."


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


"This medication gave me a rash and hives. Also did not relieve my cold symptoms."


"I’ve had YI in the past but they usually went away on their own ( I was a healthy eater then) now I have what I believe to be a YI and it’s been about 8 hours since insertion of Monistat 7 day treatment. I had to pee and now my vagina is itching and burning worse than ever I’m not sure if it’s because the cream also was leaking out or not but I’m not going to continue usage I’ll wait until my doctors visit in 2 days. Btw, I am typing this from the tub because I needed a fast relief."


"I've been on Atripla for 3 years now.  According to my test I am undetectable.  When I discussed medication options, Atripla was the one that caught my attention right away.  A once-a-day pill that is to be taken at night before going to bed. I've not conditioned myself to associate bedtime with my medication. I did notice how much more vivid my dreams became. And that if I take my dose and stay up, that I feel awful. I've cut out going to bed a 3 am.  I've been told that missing one dose is like missing 10 days of the medication. So, be sure to ALWAYS take the medicine.  DO NOT MISS DOSES!  I'm having a great quality of life."


Drospirenone / ethinyl estradiol / levomefolate calcium

"I am 27 years old, and started taking Beyaz a few months ago.
I was extremely hesitant about taking this because I was so, -SO- afraid of gaining weight. I have taken other pills in the past that have caused weight gain, nausea, bloating, etc, but this pill has proven me wrong, I have had no side effects, it's actually a bit shocking. So glad my doctor recommended this to me."


"I've been using epiduo for only a few days it drys your skin out but all you need is some lotion and it's fine I've been seeing good results already I recommend epiduo for people with horrible acne to not horrible it works quick and for anyone my friends tried it and liked it"


"I took this along with a beta blocker,and although the mechanism of the medicine seems very desirable, for me the dilation of the blood vessels caused an unacceptable amount of facial flushing, although this is not a listed side effect. Furthermore when I stopped taking it (after a year or so) there was only a small increase in blood pressure, whilst on the same dose of Beta blocker."


"I'm very allergic to certain pet dander, my eyes swell shut and itch. I also get an itchy rash on my forehead, neck, inner forearms and sides (probably I'm causing it to spread when I itch). When it gets bad I get a corticosteroid shot and prednisone. Within 24 hours all the inflammation has subsided. I would take it more often if it weren't so harmful for my body."


"Allegra works really well for hay fever. I don't like the side effects though. I haven't experienced insomnia but I feel super hot (body temperature) when I take it. I also feel thirsty as well. I do suggest taking on your day off to see how your body acts on it."


"I was on celexa for a few yrs.n when I started feeling "well" again decided to stop taking it. Within a yr. I was constantly crying n went back on it but it affected my ability to Fully enjoy intimacy so the mental health nurse told me ask my Dr.for pristine, which I did n he prescribed my cymbalta instead which I took a long with my celexa. When I went back to c him he said that he told me stop the celexa n prescribed me 60mg.of cymbalta a day which I now have been on for about a yr. To say it's a godsend is an understatement. I actually went to an outside concert with approx.5000 people in attendance. Although I was still a little anxious a couple drinks helped me to somewhat enjoy myself. Normally crowds cause me unbearable anxiety."


"Taking this version of clonidine and Restoritol helped me finally get off of oxycodone and hydrocodone after 4 1/2 years of use! Glad to share my review. Hope this helps!"


"I suffered depression and anxiety at a very difficult time in my life 5 years ago and have been on efexor 75mg since then... it took the edge off highly stressful situations and helped me to cope in a calm and positive way :)  Life has been good since then, even though family problems have endured (thankfully to a lesser extent)... side effect of nausea was to be expected during first few weeks but after that no problems at all... effexor has been a wonder for me... :):):)"


"For over a year I had dark marks on my face from the sun.  I used several of spots remover cream and nothing worked.  I went to the Dermatologist and he prescribed Tri Luma.  I used for 2 weeks and my spots were getting cleared.  I have use it for 3 weeks and I love this cream.  My cheeks are red most of the time but it really works.  It doesn't dry my skin, it just appears as if I wear blush.  I use sunscreen when I am out of the house."


"This is my 3rd month on this birth control and so far my breast has gotten bigger, they have been sore, I happen to be hungry all the time and have gained a good 10 pounds. Other than the weight gain, being hungry all the time and soreness in my breast, this birth control is pretty good. Hey, only 4 periods every year! I think I'll stick to this for a while. I'll just have to exercise and have self control on what I eat!"


"Clobetasol solution works best when I put it in a spray bottle, and spray my areas and rub it in. I have plaque so it takes a week on a daily basis. Yes it does contain steroids and steroids are good for you to heal. I'm not hitting 60 home runs a year But along side with stellara I'm clear and that's all that matters..."


"Almost instant relief of joint pain and inflammation on first injection, no reaction to needle. Great help from Cimzia Support. Still taking methotrexate weekly
injection twice a month, still have inflammation."


"I went to the dermatologist almost a year ago and she prescribed Acanya. At first it dried my skin and peeled it very badly, when I went back to the dermatologist 3 months later I told her but she said continue the use. But then one day I ran out and I realized my skin was the best it's been in 3 years I would get compliments so when my new bottle came in I decided not to use it. Then about 3 months later my acne was the worst it's been so I did research on Acanya and realized I use it wrong. I would put it all over my face causing it to dry, now I put it in my problem areas only and my face is getting better. But makes my skin itch a little but that's okay. I'm not saying it will work for everyone but I wanted to share my experience."


"In 2012 , was having black outs. I would get up in the morning and pass out, I would wake up and loss 10 to 12 hours. Did not know what was going on. Was out with friends and was having trouble talking, thought I was having a stroke. Was taken to the hospital, I was there 4  days, found our I was HIV +. Viral Load was 4 million.  Organs were shutting down. Was given Atripla. Within 3 months I am undetetable and TC count was 750. I do have the Dreams, and some times night sweats. But Atripla saved my life."


"Had Brachy Therapy for Gleason 6 prostate cancer a couple weeks ago.  Am on the generic tamsulosin to relax the muscles and improve urinary flow.  Side effects for me have been diarrhea, and stuffed up feeling.  Sometimes the bowel issues and being stuffed up make it hard to sleep.  I suspect that tamsulosin exacerbates minor allergies and have to be super careful what I eat.  Am trying to avoid bread, sugar, and vitamins to see the impact.  Not sure it is doing anything for my urine flow, as I seem to be getting up the same number of times during the night, but I will stay on it."


"This medication has been a life saver. I had terrible all day nausea, was losing weight from throwing up. As soon as I started taking it, my nausea decreased about 90% if not more. It does make you a bit sleepy, but i'll take that any day over nausea. Downside is the cost. They tried to charge me $750 for 100 pills.. Luckily I found a coupon online that got it down to $250. Pricey, but well worth it. Went from feeling like a sick zombie to feeling like a normal functioning human again. I was very hesitant to take any medication and do want to try to cycle off soon. I am almost 16 weeks now."


"My sister was put on a seemingly low IV push dose and let me tell you it was not good. Within a day she was delusional and honestly steps away from psychosis. The first day she slept so hard that they thought she had severe brain damage from her accident. I know everyone is different but I would try something else if given the option."


"I'm on 2.5mg twice a night. It puts me to sleep for two hours but it's the best two hours of sleep I get. Unfortunately, I don't sleep long while on it and I am wide awake after four hour for about two hours in the morning."


"This drug is amazing and can finally keep up with my boyfriend at last"


"It completely worked for birth control. Even if I forgot to take it for a couple days, I never had a pregnancy. But the past 2 1/2 years i started to break out badly and I would feel a pain in the opening of my vagina during sex. It literally felt like I had a cut in a certain spot. I had it checked out immediately by my gynecologist and he couldn't figure it out. I stopped sex for up to a month to see if it was something that needed to heal and it never went away. It was so painful I would almost cry every time and it made me scared to have sex. I never once thought it could be the pill but I recently stopped taking it just to take a break and that pain went away in a week! And I also got pregnant within a month of stopping too."


"I was prescribed this medication last Monday. Immediately, I was experiencing side effect. I noticed that my sex drive decreased tremendously. In addition, I would nausea throughout the day. Within the first few days I was spotting lightly then by day 7 I was HEAVILY bleeding. It required me to wear a tampon. My breast were super tender. I couldn't wear regular bras no longer so I switched to sport bras. By week two I was experiencing acne..my skin has always been clear due to my regular skin routine and vitamins. The worst side effect of all I had depression. I was noticing I was upset for the smallest things from my kids misbehaving to my boyfriend stating a fact about something."


"Working for me. Do experience the nausea, gas, wild dreams (but hilarious and extremely vivid), lower right back pain is bad and a concern. Will continue second 3 month course of treatment. Do still smoke 1-3 per day occasionally, sometimes none. Stubborness I guess. They were my best friend or so I thought for 30 years. Am 45 and logically realize they will kill you or you will be dragging around an oxygen tank when retired instead of walking the beach. I will conquer this task by June 30th !"


"I got Liletta inserted in June 2016 and I've had it for about a year with no problems. The process was quick with minor dizziness and cramping right after, but a little relaxation and ibuprofen handled that. I did experience a lot of bleeding for about three weeks after, but from what I understand that is fairly normal. I still get periods, but they are somewhat lighter than they used to be and don't last as long. I did notice a change in my cervical mucous, but it's been great in helping me prevent pregnancy especially when having unprotected sex. I recommend this birth control to anyone who cannot keep up with the pill or may forget."


"I was diagnosed with PCOS 5 weeks ago and have been on Metformin ever since. So far I haven't lost any weight (Luckily my condition was caught before I gained too much, I only have about 25lbs to lose) I am a registered dietitian and exercise daily so the not losing weight is a bit discouraging but my Endocrinologist has assured me that I will, apparently with some people it can take up to 4 months to start losing. The side effects were horrible the first two weeks along with horrible cramping and a constant period for 3 weeks. However, now I have no side effects at all, you just have to stick with it. My doctor was great and recommended taking the metformin at night so that I would be at home for the side effects. I take 1500 mg daily."


"I've been on Cryselle for 2.5 months now. I've had acne all my life and had finally gotten it under control before starting Cryselle. It's out of control again. Additionally, I've had some serious anxiety/depression/mood swings. I cry all the time and have irrational obsessive/anxious thoughts. The benefits definitely did not outweigh the costs. My GYN is switching my prescription."


"Seroquel is amazing for me, I take 100mg in morning and 300 at night"


"Great for the actual issue (sciatica pain) but side effect on me was severe night cramp in both calf muscles and 'hangover' the following day. Stopped taking them - leg cramps were worse than the back pain."


"I was on generic for about a year. Didn't really do anything. I recently (a little over a month ago) went back to get a different prescription. Doctor decided to put me on name brand, at 300mg. Night and day difference. I can't remember the last time I didn't hate everything about life. It's been at least 6 years I've had major depression. I've been suicidal for about 4. It sucked. But this drug really has helped me. I actually enjoy things now, my life has color again, and I have more energy and a less difficult time focusing. It's really great."


"I just started taking Sprintec not too long ago. So far it has been good. The only problem I have is that it seems like I have more acne than I did before I went on birth control. I have also skipped a couple days and then by taking the pills I missed I felt sick and I felt hungry all the time."


"I took methotrexate for a while without much benefit. Once I started the Humira in combination with methotrexate, I noticed a huge change. I didn't have any pain or stiffness. It has been great! I haven't had any side effects. Just make sure you double check your prescription, once I accidentally got the syringes instead of the pens. Oops! The syringes are much more difficult."


"I got one shot, September 2013. its now almost January 2014 and I haven't stopped bleeding in over a year! "


"I have been on Lexapro for a year, it is fantastic, I feel so calm. I didn't want to go on anything but I'm so glad I did. Depression and Anxiety runs in my family, my 20 yr old who has tried to commit suicide has recently gone on it too, he is a different boy"


"What I liked best about this medicine was that it made me sleep perfectly.  No trouble falling asleep and no waking up during the night.  I slept a full 8 hours and felt completely refreshed and ready to go when I woke in the morning. Then at a dosage of 80mg, instead of putting me gently to sleep, it gave me waves of paralysis in my whole body and had me hysterically crying for my daddy and hallucinating. I was immediately instructed to stop taking it. I don't take it for my mood anymore because of that. I just take the smallest dosage to help me sleep."


"This drug put me in hospital with dka.. Was taking for about 5 weeks when I started going down hill fast. It didn't matter how much sleep I got I was always exhausted and felt like I hadn't slept for days It dropped my sugar levels well that's cause I couldn't eat anything couldn't even lift a spoon of food to my mouth all I wanted to do was sleep what I did manage to eat in the first few days of being I'll I couldn't keep down. This medication made me feel like I was knocking on deaths door. Will NEVER take it again and nor should anyone else. Worse few weeks of my life"


"This medication worked great the first time I was diagnosed with Crohn's.  No side effects that I noticed and started working very quickly.  Several months later I had another flare and tried it again and it did not work for me.  It was certainly worth a try to avoid the harmful side effects of other medications.  I took this medicine along with Pentasa, which I use every day and still like."


"my experience with risperdal started when I first started seeing my psychiatrist for about a year now. I first started with 1 mg for two weeks and then started taking 2 mg for a month, and then three for another month before my doctor prescribed me 4 mg for a month which I didn't finish because it was intense for me and it made me really somnolent and overall sleepy all the time. my mom asked him to get me back on 3 mg which I've been on for seven months now. the only flaw that this medication has is that it causes some severe weight gain, and I can't sleep without it. risperdal has initially helped with my bipolar depression, and has successfully put my racing thoughts to rest."


"I've got the Implanon in Feb 2013. The first day I had nausea but the doctor told me that would be expected. I was on Depo before this. My first period was 3 days. My next period was 2 weeks long. My side effects are cramps, headaches, depression and sore breasts. I like the fact I haven't got pregnant but the bleeding part drives me crazy. If the periods didn't come often and the side effects weren't so big I would love this but periods are the negative."


"I am 19 years old and have been on this pill for 4 months. before starting this birth control I had no acne and relatively heavy periods with no cramps and slight bloating. since starting this pill I have developed acne and severe mood swings and gained about 10 pounds. I also bleed almost constantly, about 3 weeks per month, very lightly and now experience cramps when on the placebo pill. I visited my gyno and he told me to finish the 3 month subscription I had possessed to see if my symptoms improved and they only worsened. worst decision ever going on this pill and I would not recommend it to anyone."


"I was on Topamax for 6 years and it worked very well until this past winter when I realized the migraines were starting to increase in frequency again, so my doctor has switched me to Bystolic and I'm tapering off the Topamax. But for a long time Topamax was wonderful. The first 3 months were hell and my boyfriend almost left me but I started taking a small amount of antidepressants and that seemed to calm me down. Or maybe it was a coincidence. Anyway all of the side effects did go away except for the difficulty remembering words. I am looking forward to not having to fumble for words any more, but it was a small price to pay for no migraines."


"I took 1 pill and had rapid heart beat and elevated blood pressure hours after taking. I did not take another, but day 2 I had a horrible headache and nausea, and I was also seeing things. I felt like I was going crazy and I wanted to do anything to get it to stop. It has given me four panic attacks in three days whereas I only ever had 2 in my whole life. This isn't worth it and I'd take depression over this nuttiness any day."


"I got the implant May of 2010, for the most part I have loved this birth control. I was on the pill before. I wanted to have something I didn't have to worry about or stress about forgetting. That is probably the biggest highlight for me. Now nearly two years later I am starting to see differences, and things I didn't notice before that have changed. I have insane periods, regularly I would have a period that would last about a week starting off light, getting a bit heavier and then tapering off. Now it is like SUPER heavy for at least 10 days if not more, and it seems like I am having a period every couple of weeks. Which makes life miserable, also my sex drive is non-existent. Now I'm not sure what I think of Implanon..."


"Spotty and long/weird periods at first. Now have regulated and seem to be on schedule - my last period was truly two light days! Yay! I used to completely soak through a super plus tampon in 3 hours before starting this pill and now I can wear light tampons without a backup pad!!!

I've noticed some breast tenderness and I do feel that I tend be more sensitive emotionally or feel like crying more easily than before. I am not normally very emotional. However, it's nothing to a significant level. Totally manageable emotions for me and only last a couple days at a time.

Seems to be working as far as no babies go ;)

No affected libido, no weight gain, no skin issues, no nausea, etc."


"It did not work, wasted over 200 dollars on this. Will stick with Levitra and Cialis as they both work great just expensive"


"The side effects are everything that has been described. For me headache stomach ache (mild) but with each dose increase they return and then subside as my body adjusts to the dosage. Very tired but can't sleep more than 6 hours. But the real success 21 lbs in three weeks..amazing. I am also following intermittent fasting (16/8) with this, only small amount of carb 25g in the morning and then fruits veggies and protein for the remainder of day. Blood sugar better. NOTHING ELSE has worked for me. I love Victoza!!!"


"Puts the kabosh on anxiety pretty well indeed.  Nice because you can dissolve this medicine under your tongue (even with the "normal" type pill) if you get into a situation where you need it's effect quickly.  Very potent anti-anxiety medicine."


"Great birth control! I have been on 3 different ones until I did my own research and came across Natazia. I have been taking this for 2 months now and feel as though I'm not taking anything at all (no felt side effects). Periods are only about 2 to 3 days in length and very light. All my previous menstrual issues have subsided. Only issue is the 10pd weight gain..."


"I started on 10mg 4 days ago after a long love affair with cannabis brought on depression.I had my doubts about taking anti-depressants but these have been life saving!I have mild bowel problems in the morning and a bit of a headache a couple of hours after dose, also jaw clenching and dry mouth, but its worth it. It more or less started working immediately and I can socialize again. My boyfriend gave me the push I needed and we can now look forward to a bright and happy future together. I owe him and citalopram. I couldn't be happier, just worried after reading some of the feedback that once I stop the treatment I will regress, fingers crossed it doesn't happen to me!"


"Took two 250mg pills and had no problems at all. You should take this on a FULL stomach. Everyone saying they do not want to throw up so they make sure not to eat anything ?! The medication effects are lessen by food I promise! My infection symptoms were gone in 2 days and the STD was gone when I went to the check-up appointment 2 weeks later! :)"


"I have gotten Botox for migraines for three years now.  The migraines went from every other day to one per month, the shots are not fun but quick and worth it.  I do have some drooping of both eyelids and occasional blurry vision that lasts about 30 min.  I am on the lower dose- 18 shots.  I tried twice the dose one time and my neck and back of head were tight and sore for a week.  Went back to the lower dose."


"I'm not the biggest fan of Skyla. I screamed during insertion and had to stay in the office 30 minutes afterward for my anxiety levels to calm down. I get cramps a week before my period and during, and I used to only get cramps about once or twice a year. The IUD gets bumped a lot during intercourse and I bleed a small bit afterwards on occasion. Insurance covered the procedure and device which is why I opted to get it. It's like having free birth control for three years and that sounded awesome. I probably wouldn't do it again and I will probably have this removed before 3 years. It's okay, but after a year I'm still getting my periods and I was really hoping they would go away."


"I just started using Prozac a couple of weeks ago and it has been life changing. I am a combat veteran who suffers from severe anxiety and sleeping problems and this drug has completely abated those symptoms. My mood is much better, I can concentrate for longer periods of time and I don't have the social anxiety that was plaguing me since I left the Marine Corps.

All in all, this is a great drug that has helped me move on from my anxiety. I take 20mg per day (minimum dose) and that is working fine."


"I am a junior in high school who was just diagnosed with both severe ADD and ADHD. I go to a pretty good high school where I achieved around a 3.2 last year (generally get a 3.6 but last semester of my sophomore year I got like a 2.7). After I got on Vyvanse my GPA went up to around a 4.0 and I am in mostly honors and AP classes. Although I was always thought to be smart and nobody ever denied that, they would say I was lazy and unorganized and simply didn't apply myself. Now I get A's without effort, my teachers love me, I hardly have to pay attention, and I also have a love for school/my subjects that I didn't have before. I am now excited to go to school and function on a much higher level. I would most definitely recommend Vyvanse."


"IF YOU WANT TO AVOID NAUSEA, HAVE YOUR DOCTOR TO PRESCRIBE A TABLET THAT YOU WILL TAKE 20 MINS PRIOR TO STARTING THE SUPREP%u2026IT WORKS WONDERS."


"I've been on the pill for 4 days and so far, no side effects. My period is still normal and I feel great. This is the first type of birth control I've tried, and I'm really happy with it."


"When I turned 40 I started getting cysts on my chin and jawline (a lovely side effect of hormones) and dealt with it for 6 months before deciding to finally see my Dermatologist.  She prescribed 55 mg and the results were immediate and remarkable.  I've been on it for 4 months and have had no side effects (I take NO other medications though) and have had ZERO breakouts.  As other reviewers have mentioned, it is expensive so be sure to get the discount card from your Doctor which is good for 3 refills.  I see my Doctor every 3 months so she can monitor my progress and give me another card.  I have paid only $10 a month for this medication since I started it.  My confidence has skyrocketed and I'm saving a ton of money on makeup!"


"I have recently been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease.  My Doctor first prescribed muscle relaxers (Flexeril and Skelaxin) to no avail.  He then tried me on some anti-inflammatories, no help.  Then, he gave me Tramadol.  No help.  I saw him the other day and he gave me Percocet 5/325.  This gave me lots of relief.  The nagging pain is still there but I can do a little more than I could on the other medications.  There is no way I could do physical therapy with it."


"I am a 66-year-old male and began noticing erectile dysfunction problems when I turned 65 last year. I had been using Viagra for the past several months. I had a routine once-a-year physical last week and asked about a prescription for Viagra and my physician gave me the 2-pack of Staxyn. Wow. I took it home and the next night I used it and wow-like a rock! Staxyn works very well, better than Viagra! Staxyn makes my penis very hard and happy, so my lady is very happy too! And without any noticeable side effects."


"I tried them for 4 months!! It was the worst experience i ever had!! I got brain zaps and could not sleep at all. I have mild severe frontal brain damage from a fall. Coming off them is worse than any benzo I have tried!! In fact there just as bad if not worse than a benzo. atleast the benzo drugs work for anxieties!!!! . If you read about antidepressants like i did on google. You will see that they are nothing more than a addicting placebo . Don't let anyone get you on those medications. Just google the fact that the drug companies are handing them out like candy and they do more harm than good. If you like sex than don't get involved with antidepressants!! Because you will not have any sexual wants whatsoever. I wish they did work!!"


"Went to dermatologist 3 days after first sign was only using Abreva with no results. He suggested 1500mg Famvir now, and gave me 3 more to take at the first sign of additional outbreak in the future. Within one day the swelling had gone away and the blister was starting to clear up.
I have used other treatments but nowhere as fast and effective as this product."


"I've been taking Yaz for 3 months now and I absolutely love it. I've lost weight, without trying, and my periods have greatly decreased in heaviness and severity. I have not experienced any of the bad side effects like depression or tiredness, I wake up happy and ready to go. The only difference I've noticed that is not so great is that the first day of taking the placebo pill I tend to be emotional, but that usually clears up by the second day.  Also, if I miss a pill I usually have stomach pain until I take it, which is actually a nice reminder to take it. I love Yaz though and cannot say enough good things about it."


"Rubbish! It did absolutely nothing..."


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


"Caused me to be hungry. Moody and decreased sex drive"


"I got the implant April 29th 2015 and I started bleeding today (May 23rd 2015) I haven't had any breakouts, no weight gain and no mood swings but it may just be too soon to determine. I'm having mild cramps at this very moment but nothing too painful. I just hope I don't bleed for a long time."


"It really works. Still less than SSRI's. But close enough. 5htp had no benefits for me. So, I wasn't very optimistic about starting Saint John's. Luckily I did and I am satisfied with it."


"Prescribed by my gynecologist to treat amenorrhea and long, heavy periods as a result of anovulation (I have polycystic ovarian syndrome which causes anovulation). Due to the anovulation, I would go several months without a period only to eventually have a period which would last anywhere from 14-35 days. The period would be much heavier than the norm, especially for the first 7-10 days. I would also have very large clot-like discharge. I take Prometrium for 21 days, then off for 7 days(which brings on my period). The only significant side effect has been hot flashes during the day, usually in the late morning I will have one bad one with profuse sweating. Then usually one in the afternoon but it's not as bad."


"I've been using Tri Sprintec for almost a year. I'm not sexually active, but was prescribed it for month-long PMS, spotting and irregular periods. By irregular I mean 27 days one month, 30 days the next month, 25 the next, and so on. I have 28 days all the time now, occasionally 27. PMS is much better, skin cleared, and I'm much more emotionally stable! I do notice PMS in the last week, but that's to be expected as there's no hormones that week. The other thing I have noticed is that it does dry out my skin, eyes, scalp and vaginal  area. I believe that's due to the same stuff that keeps your skin clear. I did notice a bit of nausea in the beginning, but that should go away. It helps to take it at night. All in all, great pill!"


"I was diagnosed with GAD three years ago. It began each morning with a small 'knot' in my stomach and then spread during the day causing tightness if chest, throat and often tension down my arms.  It was stupid because there seemed to be no trigger, I just felt tension and worry all day.

I was placed on a number of drugs, nothing worked. Busiprone helped but I remained anxious for no valid reason. About 18 months ago my doctor gave me Lyrica to try. Within a couple of days everything returned to normal I was even a bit euphoric but that subsided in a week or so. I started out taking Lyrica 50mg twice a day along with 20mg Busiprone twice a day.

I have had to increase dosage over time and now take 200mg a day along with 40mg Busiprone."


"I am 18 years old and I have had a sweating problem under my arms since I was 13. I have been wearing black T-shirts since I can remember only because they didn't show sweat! I went to my doctor about a month ago and she prescribed me Hypercare. I love it. I could feel the difference just after one use. It really is a miracle! Yes it itches and sometimes burns when you put it on but it is totally worth it and many people say that I would start sweating a lot in other places but I haven't noticed that anywhere so I am super happy with Hypercare."


"Used this medication for three days. It appeared to work well until my urinary tract infection returned a week after I finished the medication.  My doctor then prescribed Cipro.  My fingers are crossed, praying this cures it."


"I used to be on Norco 10,for a long time they were fine I never had a problem with them no side effects at all, recently dr. Changed me to Norco 7.5, and they're terrible even though the pharmacist the doctor say they are the same ingredients ( except that 7.5 has less )they are very different 7.5are horrible they make my eyelids swell up and I can hardly see out of one eye then make me feel very sick and Ill and I also have very bad stomach pain and pain in my chest also this is horrible do not like 7.5 at all might as well not take anything Norco 7.5 are very very horrible there definitely is something in Norco 7.5 that is not in the Norco 10 so why are they hiding it from us seems like they're trying to kill.me"


"I have been on some form of thyroid for 20 years.  First I was on Armour then Synthroid.  But what changed all that was my thyroid cancer diagnosis 6 months ago.  They kept me on Synthroid, and never told me there was a difference.  It seems to me that you need T4 and T3, which armour provides.  I felt so achy after my surgery.  Everyday my body hurt and I was do tired and absent minded.  Also I have had weight gain. Went to a different doctor last week and have switched to Armour.  We shall see.  The main difference I feel so far is less body aches.  That is wonderful to me!"
