"I recently got the Mirena IUD since I am a sexually active 16 year old & I don't a want a baby! I went to my health clinic which pretty much does anything for teens under 18 years of age for free. When I got the IUD I was told to take medication before I came and I probably should had listened! Because when they  pinch your cervix to put it in it feels like really bad cramps. I suggest taking 4 (depending on the pill) of some kinda of pain reliever 4 & 1 hour prier to the procedure. After I got it heading home I had bad cramps my symptom's lasted for about a week and a half which sucked I had all the symptoms of pregnancy you could say. Symptom's were high sense of smell, nausea, couldn't keep down most foods, light headed, bleeding"


"Great quick onset for urgent care visits due to migraines (IM injection).  Lasts longer than Fentanyl in my experience.  This has been a life-saver for me  to alleviate the excruciating pain quickly!"


"I'm 28 with two kids I just started adipex and I love it all ready. I am  waiting to see results. I work til midnight and stay very busy. I'm 224 and can't wait untilIi see how many pounds I lose. I would like to get down to about 170 thats my goal."


"I did not think the insertion was painful i took 800 mg ibuprofen before hand and chugged a beer before i went in, didnt feel a thing. some spotting afterwards nothing much been in for 5 months and no issues yet i get some pain in my right ovary i think its when i would be having my period but i dont get them anymore just mood swings sore breast and ovary pain but no bleeding."


"Since the age of 13 I've been on antidepressants, fluoxetine, mirtazipine, lorazepam, citalopram. The list goes on. I'm 25 now and I've been on sertraline for the past two month after all the other medicines failed to lift my mood. Its the first time in my life I've ever felt free, to me this is a miracle. I can easily put up with the occasional side effects (nausea, insomnia) because I no longer wake up with suicidal thoughts or anxiety about leaving the house."


"Was taking 20mg of Prozac which worked pretty good. Have taken Adderall in the past for ADD and asked my doctor about it again. He suggested I take Wellbutrin. Been on it for 2 weeks and I really noticed a difference. I actually feel great! 300mg XL. Side effects are minimal. I did feel like a zombie the first and second day. The third day I had the giggles. But, things started to even out after that. It wasn't anything terrible. It is a little bit harder to go to sleep at night however, I've never been a good sleeper. And, dry mouth is kind of bad. Other than that no anxiety depression. Haven't noticed anything about my ADD yet. I'll give it a couple more weeks."


"I dont leave home without Relpax!"


"I have had dry eyes for about 4 yrs and had been on Restasis for about 3 years.  I also have Myasthenia gravis (MGS).  Redraw is did not work well for me and my eyes were always red and dry.  It was to the point where I could not wear my contacts or tolerate any direct air like a fan.  I live in Arizona where it's really dry too.  When I heard about Xiidra, I asked my Optometrist for an Rx to see if it would work for me.  The difference was immediate.  There is a taste with it but it has gone away and there is some burning.  My doc also suggested I continue with the Restasis since the two drugs work differently.  My eyes are doing much better, the redness is gone and I can see better."


"Ketoacidosis without coma. A really wonderfully emergency room trip.  The doc was called 2 times before emergency and was not worried. Train the docs to look for problems. The stuff I read really seems to down play the danger. This drug will kill people but don't worry, do the math it will pay back before all of the deaths. A drug that almost killed me is totally  effective. My blood sugar was reduced and I lost weight"


"I'm 5'9. I started taking this medication 11/14. I weighed 315lbs. I wanted something to help guide me in the right direction. When I started I made a commitment to myself that I would go paleo. Which I did. I also exercise 2-3 times a day. Now 7 months later I've lost 190lbs. I can't tell you how much this medication has helped me save my life. Not once during these 7 months have I had anything sweet. I drink nothing but water. Not to mention stopped taking a pill everyday and take one every few days. My doctor never put me on anything higher than the 7.5mg bc I lost weight so rapidly. I have no desire for anything bad to eat with or without the medication. The only bad thing I can say is that I have a ton of excess skin!!"


"Taken this a few times. If you're freaking out...STOP. It works EVERY TIME. Sooner the better though. But because I know it can be taken within 72 hours...I actually forgot to by one time within 72 hours and it still worked. Took it 5 days afterwards and still did its job. Never had any symptoms except one time go slightly nauseous but it did not last long at all. "


"I am hysterically crying in pain right now from this. It was fine for the first hour after inserting, but as soon as I got up, it started dripping out of me and I cannot explain the pain/discomfort I am experiencing. I have never experienced this type of burning/itching. I want to die right now."


"If you are a migraine sufferer this is a MIRACLE DRUG! Yes the "injection" is sort of painful (for like 10 secs) and I only experienced a little soreness in the spot afterwards.. But within 15 mins of the injection my DEBILITATING MIGRAINE WITH NAUSEA AND BLURRED VISION WAS GONE! I was able to head to work and put in a full 10 hours as normal! No nausea, no follow up dosage, no pills, just a little sleepiness. I'm a 35 yr old female that suffers from 1-4 migraines with vomiting, light sensitivity, blurred vision per month. Yes, they are expensive, but I am lucky enough to have great insurance coverage thru my employer and only pay $15 per mon for 6 of these"


"I was prescribed rexulti by my pdoc a few days ago. Just wanted to put my input that may help others with this medication since the med hasn't even been out for a full year yet, at first i was scared to take it but gave it a shot anyway. This is day 3 for me the side effects I'm experiencing is exhaustion and my mind feels a bit foggy. However, I have noticed i laughed and am not as irritable as I was a few days ago so that's a good sign. As time goes by ill come back with an update."


"I took two aleve and my back pain hasn't even lessened. Still hurts the same after 4 hours and it's supposed to work for 8-12 hours."


"I started Yaz a few months ago and so far the results are unimpressive. Primarily I went on the pill the regulate my extremely heavy and long periods as a bonus I was using it as a contraceptive. Contraceptive wise it was a dream, but it did absolutely nothing for my periods, the pain was still there and instead of being 8 days they are now 10 or 11. I also got horrible mood swings, and I suffer from depression so I really didn't think I would get any 'lower' but on this pill I really have. My emotions are just all over the place.  If you are going to go on this pill I would definitely do proper research.  I have decided to stop taking it."


"I had spinal fusion (L4-S2) and my doctor is stating I need to possibly have L2-L3 fused.  My doctor had me on Norco and this did little and then while he was out of the office one day another doctor in his office saw me and put me on Fentanyl.  At first it was great, I had the same problem everyone else had with patches only lasting 48 hours and it was impossible to find some place they would stay on.  But later it was hard to regulate my body temperature, I would get burning hot and then cold and it wasn't because the patch was old or not on.  This medication helps my pain more than anything else."


"After being unable to sleep for more than 15 minutes at a time for three nights in a row even with my head elevated on several pillows, the doctor gave me this.  My nonstop dry cough stopped for up to 5 hours, and then it came back, but less severe.  It doesn't last 8 hours, but it allowed me to get some much needed sleep.  Sucking sugar free cherry Luden's cough drop, and/or swallowing a teaspoon of honey without water help also. Also take Mucinex to thin secretions."


"I was taking Junel Fe 1/20 for about a year and unfortunately had to switch because it wasnt covered by my insurance. The best thing it did for me personally was lighten my period. my periods would last 5 days or so but they were easy to live with because they weren't heavy like before. Also calmed my cramps. Before BC i would get cramps EVERY TIME my cycle started. With this, I only had cramps occasionally."


"It lowered my Cholesterol numbers and put my LDL and HDL numbers in normal range. It did work for me but I had some muscle pain in my legs which would come and go."


"Tried several statins but both resulted in terrible muscle pain despite working to reduce both LDL and HDL levels.
After switching to Zetia, no more muscle pains while lowering my LDL and maintaining my HDL levels."


"I was prescribed this due to acne. In a month or two I come toy cleared up the acne I got on my back and chest. And my periods only lasted 3-4 days versus before the 5-6 days. It made me actually lose a few pounds because it maintained my appetite and my mood swings were very low other than around the time of my period. Unfortanely my insurance ran out so now have to switch to the other brand Giavani so we'll see how it goes!"


"I have tried other medicines for bipolar with psychosis. This one has been the best so far, no side effects whatsoever. My life has changed for good and my husband and kids couldn't be any happier."


"Great response & no problems! In a 3x lung ca. Pt."

"Very effective in stopping runny nose and sniffles.  I would say within five minutes I am feeling  well. This medicine works and with no side effects."


"I have an enlarged prostate and it was suggested I try Cialis for some of the symptoms, frequent urination, problems starting and finishing, urgency. I was given a 10mg tab and I decided to take half. I wasn't in any hurry for results but discovered that even though I wasn't complaining of erectile dysfunction I definitely had some symptoms, sex with my wife has been very rare during menopause but hadn't been all that satisfying when it happened. I figured if Cialis worked a little on both fronts I was ahead of the game. I couldn't believe the erections I started to have, I thought I was still able to get a good erection but this medication is amazing. It has helped both the prostate symptoms and the erectile dysfunction I didn't know I had."


"Always use this 1 to 2 hours after meal for maximum effectiveness."


"After years of being told I had IBS-D and it was all in my head, I was finally diagnosed as having UC.  I was so sick at that point I was considering going on disability.  After two weeks of Lialda, I started to improve and soon could live somewhat of a normal life, although with a very restricted diet.  A routine blood test 11 months later showed that my kidneys had been damaged by this anti-inflammatory.  I got off Lialda immediately but four months later my creatinine level is still too high.  I never had any kidney trouble before taking Lialda."


"I decided to take this because the birth control and Plan B was not working and I got pregnant. Thank god I delivered a healthy and beautiful baby boy. I got this Dec 29, 2015 and it was the most terrible experience of my whole entire life. I bled almost immediately after the insertion till now April 5, 2016. I finally got in out today because my bleeding got worse. I would sweat even if I barely did anything that day, extreme migraines and it worsened my depression and anxiety to the point I could not sleep and had no energy. Please ladies reconsider this because I would NOT quit bleeding. It destroyed my sex life and self esteem too. As if today I actually feel great and trying Yasmin because this is awful!!!!!! Zero stars for me "


"Day 2 I wondered why my feet were stinging and burning when I got ready to go to bed. Now I notice they are stinging again.  I guess three days is enough for me."


"I was diagnosed with asthma and COPD and was given symbicort. First I lost my voice , then I would get constant leg cramps at night, then I started to lose weight. I went to see my new doctor, by the way my previous doctor sent me to have my throat examined for any problems and all came out ok. My new doctor asked me "who told you you got COPD"?  my previous doctor. She asked did I have a lung test and I said no. Then  told me to quit symbicort get a chest x-ray  a full lung test and a complete blood scan which came back Normal. Now it's been over a week since I stopped symbicort and am breathing normal don't cough got my appetite back and don't use my rescue inhaler which I seldom used . Get a complete lung test before taking symbicort."


"This product works for hyperhidrosis. If you have sweaty hands, this will work. I been using it for about two years now and thank God it still works. But lately, for some reason, its causing irritation between my fingers, but doesn't matter. I will endure it, as long as it stops my hands from sweating."


"When I was younger I was put on Abilify in combination with antidepressants. I've been off of it for about 5 years or so now. As I recall it didn't do much for me, however my weight skyrocketed during the time I was on it, and it stuck with me even after I was off of it. At my worst I was about 250 pounds. I've lost a lot of weight since then, however, I still struggle with my weight today which creates a self-esteem issue that adds to my depression."


"After not having many issues with any dairy other than ice cream, I decided to try lactaid in order to be able to enjoy the delicious treat of vanilla ice cream once more...but I regret everything now. Not only did it not do Jack squat, but my symptoms of lactose intolerance are even worse now. Usually I can get away with just a little bit of gas and I'm fine but now I have nausea, diarrhea, gas, and bloating. Worst decision ever!!! This product deserves negative stars!!!"


"I had skyla inserted this morning and for me at least it did not hurt that bad I'm 19 and never had a child I haven't really encountered any cramps post insertion. To be completely honest my pain tolerance is the lowest of the low and coming from a wimp it was completely bearabl. The worst pain lasted about 10 seconds and it was just like a bad period cramp nothing to stress about. Honestly I think the worst part of the day was how nervous I was and I was reading everything about how much it hurt and I was working myself up but everyone is different if you go in with an open mind and your comfortable with your doctor I'm sure you will be fine"


"Hi, it's me again just giving an update. I've got a few post and I'd like to continue to post my experience throughout this process. My last post was 5/15. I went back to my Doctor on 6/15 and was down another 9lbs with a total of 45lbs since I started taking victoza on 3/6/17. I'm still eating the same things, still no side effects,  and I am still very much happy with this product. Until next time..."


"I have had stomach and bowel movement issues since I was 2. I have tried everything. Reflexology, acupuncture, medicines and drank mineral oil for 10 years. I took one 145 mg pill and in 6 hours I actually had a bowel movement and several more to follow in the next 6 hours. I weighed myself the next day and I had lost 3 pounds. It does have some not so great side effects but I am happy that I can go. I don't take it everyday because it is too much for me I can't sit on the toilet all day but I do take it every other day it's working for me!!"


"I have seasonal allergies, I realized several years ago when I started getting headaches and got stuffy drinking beer and certain other foods/ drinks. So tried various medications but all had some side effects that limited my use. Cetirizine is now available as a generic. The trick with this drug is to take it at around 4-6 in the afternoon. It takes a while to work for me like the next day. By taking it in the early evening you miss the getting tired side effect which many have noted because it takes a while to react, and you are already relaxing after work/school/kids to bed, etc. By the next day it is in your system but your body can adjust to it. The best drug."


"Although it has only been a week of using Aviane, I have to say that I love it. I've been on the patch and it definitely made me moody, to the point where I would cry constantly and randomly. It made me gain 10 lbs in a week and I just hated it so much. Aviane so far, is amazing. I've been at my lowest weight (during my period), I've lost my appetite though, but it's not necessarily a bad thing. No bloating, no break outs, but I am experiencing longer period flow. But it's only been the first week. So fingers cross that this will keep being amazing to me."


"The antihistamine effects aren't as strong as immediate release diphenhydramine (Benadryl), but it still works pretty well and the continuous release is a nice thing to have."


"Golf for me is not possible when the grass in the roughs is in bloom without allergy help. I need three medications: an antihistimine such as Loratadine (Claritin) or Cetirizine (Zyrtec) to minimize reaction to the pollen overall, cromolyn drops for my eyes to keep them from being irritated and Nasarel to prevent the pollen from bringing on the uncontrolled sneezing. With all three, I can comfortably be in an environment that otherwise would compel me to leave the course and wait hours or even days to recover."


"So far this medicine seems to be working. I'm only up to 100mgs x3 four times a day but I'm noticing some results. It gives me some mild anxiety, but nothing some Klonopin won't clear up. I wish it did a better job for the pain, but hopefully when I titrate the dose up I'll be getting more relief, better sleep, and have more energy during the day."


"My sister recommended this to me while I was experiencing several nasal congestion and cough. The product works GREAT WHEN USED AS DIRECTED. She suggested taking 2 (12 hour) pills instead of the one that was suggested on box. (She had done this and thought I'd be okay) I experienced VERY SEVERE side effects. I became extremely light headed, dizzy beyond belief, lose of concentration, and severe loss of apetite. I literally felt like I was walking on clouds. I suggest also not taking this at night as it will keep you up ALL night. One pill in the morning is enough to get you by."


"I am very sensitive to medication. Even though I've been on almost every psychotropic drug since the age of 5. I take 25mg of Zoloft 1x a day and 25mgs of trazedone 4x a day for C PTSD,  panic attacks, GAD, and insomnia. I had to quit taking my klonopin due to being pregnant and I thought I might end my life due to the panic attacks and constant dread. Surprisingly, trazedone during the day replaced the klonopin very well and didn't make me so tired to where I couldn't function like I was worried it might. It slowed my negative responses down and my heart rate down to where I wasn't in panic mode and it's without the more impulsive side effect some of the benzos can give you. I just feel calmer and happier but not like a different person."


"Works good and fast for sinus infection.

TAKE.... pro biotics or at least some yogurt and hour before or and hour after to help with stomach issues.
Personally I would rather have the shits than a sinusitis infection any day as the sinusitis infection laid me out body and mind."


"Of all the anxiety medicines alprazolam works the best for me."


"re: side effects, I forgot to add to the comments I just submitted that while my stomach felt a little weird the morning after my first dose (this being 12 hours later) I was prepared to eat plenty of probiotics, which I have been doing. I have not had any problems; I am really pushing the yogurt and kefir. I did feel extraordinarily tired but not debilitated, and I was extremely fatigued from nearly 5 weeks of being sick, so the trade-off is meaningless, and it's improved after the first mega-dose anyway."


"I had my gall bladder taken out over 10 years ago and only in the last 2 years problems started. Acid reflux and diarrhea. This medication has given my life back to me. I wish doctors knew about it. It took an amazing specialist doctor to recommend it I'm very thankful. I wish more people with IBS knew about this."


"This medication helps me tremendously with muscle spasms."


"A little over 2 years ago I was involved in a MVA, and sustained a traumatic brain injury. My neurologist put me on Trokendi XR for 2 reasons - to prevent seizures and migraines. Prior to the accident, I had always been a fairly healthy 5'7 160 pounds and worked out almost daily, and generally are very healthy. After the accident I became almost sedentary, depressed and suicidal. I had gained over 35 pounds but I honestly didn't much care. The Trikendi XR and the Adderall (prescribed to assist with the severe ADD caused by the brain injury) has helped me lose weight along with proper diet and minimum exercise. My seizures have gone from major, grandmal to pseudo-seizures to seldom, and my migraines have gone from daily to about 4 per week."


"Started on Abilify in addition to Effexor and Lamictal.  Immediately had tremors in hands, lips and speech.  Gained weight and was anxious.  Stopped taking when I ran out; tremors stopped, lost weight and no noticeable negative consequences.  Don't know why it was prescribed but it caused more problems than it helped.  Side effects were terrible."


"I started Saxenda Mid-October and have lost 10 pounds, which seems to be a bit slower, but still healthy weight loss. I have PCOS so losing weight is very difficult.  It definitely curbs my appetite, but I was still not eating the healthiest meals. It was like, I'm not hungry, but I'd still like some mexican food (if that makes sense?). I LOVE food. So, I am now on Weight Watchers learning to eat healthy, too.

The insurance paid for mine. I have BCBS and only paid $30 for it with the savings card.

I only have experienced nausea if I take it early in the morning before eating. Lunch is best. Otherwise, the only side effect I experience is constipation (extreme!). Laxatives wouldn't work. This is the only negative I've experienced"


"I was put on this medication as I have suffered from Aspergers Syndrome since I was diagnosed at four years old.

This is powerful. At 5mg I felt like a Zombie. I was constantly sleeping because it the effects were strong. It gave me symptoms of Paranoia, for example, I was convinced all the time that I was going to throw up every time I ate. It put me off eating heavy food and as a result I lost weight.

Probably one of the worst Anti-Psychotics I have ever taken. Too strong for a 15 year old (at the time) and when I came off it, It gave me Psychotic symptoms. I heard a constant moaning voice for days and it scared the crap out of me. Glad I'm of this medication!"


"This is the first time I have ever reviewed a medication, or that one has had such fast results and I hope, will have such an incredible impact on my life.  I have experienced underarm sweating for most of my adult life.  I am now in my early 40's.  Like many, I have had to alter my wardrobe to accommodate my condition.  For many years, I just thought it was part of me and that it wasn't really a treatable condition.  I just got my doctor to prescribe this and after one night of use, I am sweat free for the first time in 15 years.  It is 85 degrees today with 100% humidity- not a drop.  Very slight burning for an hour after I put it on, but bearable.  I'm hopeful this will continue.  Please, if you have this issue, try it."


"My husband and I tried having children for 7 years and nothing happened. We got tested and found out that I had polycystic ovaries.  The asked us what sort of help we wanted and I said clomid, and just on the 4th pill I got pregnant. I took it 1 day after I got married."


"For when my mind won't shut off at night, no matter how tired I am, I have my lorazepam. I cut them in half so they last me longer. I tend to take them after 2-3 days of not sleeping and they work great. You don't feel anything, no sleepiness, grogginess, or tiredness. Just take it an hour before bedtime and you can continue to watch TV or do whatever, knowing that half an hour after you hit the pillow you'll be bored into sleep."


"While Estrace cream has helped diminish night sweats for me, it has caused me to experience sleeplessness. I normally fall asleep very fast. While using Estrace cream, I find I can't fall asleep and when I do, I am always on the edge of wakefulness."


"I have had hep C for about 20 years now, genotype 3a. I already did my 3 month treatment of Epclusa. At end of 3 months, the virus  was undetectedable, of course. Waiting to get blood work in March to find out if still undetected. My main side effect of Epclusa was major muscle aches. My muscles were always very stiff and sore. Totally manageable though. I was hoping after I finished treatment, it would go away..,but unfortunately it has not. Some days are worse than others...hoping time will make it go away. Praying and hoping will be undetected and cured still in March. Good luck and God bless to all struggling."


"I am pregnant. I don't think it works."


"I have seen vistaril prescribed a number of times for pain, especially muscle pain. I found it useless for pain itself, but it was great to potentiate opiates and stop rashes that might develop"


"My daughter was given this injection for Gonorrhea the injection was very painful it caused nausea, but she does feel a lot better no more dark color urine or smelly discharge it works"


"First shot five days out of rehab, now on my fourth, longest clean time I've had in over five years, such an amazing non addictive non opiod replacement. Gives me the power back to say yes to the shot once every 28 days (I take oral naltrexone starting daily @ day 21) and I have a life again, I'm no longer just a junkie but a daughter, sister, fiance, friend, and have an amazing job. I am a RECOVERING addict. Amazing what rehab, meetings, IOP, and this wonderful tool can do for a herion/oxy/methadone/all opiates IV drug user like me, only needle in my body in 5 months lidocane followed by vivitrol, never thought it could happen as much as I wanted to be clean."


"I have faithfully taken 4 Lialda 1.2mg  everyday for 8 years. I tried all medicines such Asacol, 6-mp, etc. and had to discontinue due to side effects. I also use the Rowasa enemas/suppositories temporarily and when stopped, the rectal bleeding starts again and worsen everyday. I have never been in remission with Lialda. I started the Uceris on 12/04/14 and I felt better than I had ever felt since the diagnosis in 2003. Two weeks into Uceris, legs and ankles swelling. Continued Uceris and praying swelling was temporary, Then had shortness of breath and fluid buildup in my chest. The swelling was unbearable. I stopped the Uceris; swelling subsided in 5 days. I do not want Remicade or Humira due to side effects. Why Lialda; no remission for 8 yrs."


"Strattera made me tired during the day and kept me awake at night. It was miserable at night. I took it for 3 months before I couldn't take it anymore. Now I take 200 mg of wellbutrin twice daily and that seems to help quite a bit with my moral and the way I view myself in the world. Honestly the strattera made a zombie out of me."


"Duac has magical effect in just two days. Duac gave me very good results but it makes my skin dry and when I use it, first day it makes my skin too red but when redness is gone, my skin clear."


"You can take it during any anxiety issue within 20mins I noticed the difference it made. In seven yrs I've been able to do so much more. I would call it the miracle pill."


"I started Macrobid yesterday and I felt okay but today I've had the most horrible painful stomach cramps and the weirdest constipated diarrhea I have ever had. I am constantly feeling like I need to throw up and the bowel movements and pain are what prompted me to do some Internet digging. I have taken four of  100mg pills in two days and I refuse to take another. At work today I nearly tripped several times and I was disoriented, felt sick, and had difficulty walking straight. There are other meds out there and while I know that everyone reacts differently to medication, I seriously would not wish this stomach/abdominal pain on anyone; it is incessant and keeping me from sleeping. I pray for alleviation tomorrow but fear it may take a few days."

"Well just wanted to add I'm 45 years old and have been on birth control since 19. I'm healthy for my age, see my gynecologist and never smoked. I stumbled on Jolessa by accident. My chemist gave me Jolessa because they ran out of my usual brand. After the first 3 months what a difference it weight loss. I lost 7 pounds and have been on it 1 year and lost 17 pounds. I chew the pill with food at dinner time because I have trouble taking pills. Also I take the pill straight through. I don't stop after the inactive pills, I continue with the active pills and never have my menstrual cycle at all. My doctor suggested it. "


"I have lived in pain for over 7 years (if you can even call that living). Living in different states over these 7 years I have been to many doctors that have tried many different types of medications to help me with the pain. The best ANY of these medicines would do is help me with the severe headaches that the pain would actually cause. THEN I was introduced to Oxycodone. The pain was reduced to almost none at all. "


"HORRIBLE

This product should be recalled

I've used it before with no issues but this time around---- are the ingredients different ?? EXTREME BURNING AND ITCHING!!

I should have waited to see a doc and take a pill !!!!! It's almost 1 am and I can't sleep :((("


"I'm 19 and nexplanon is my very first hormonal birth control, like most ladies have said everyone reacts different with birth control, when I first got nexplanon I was supposed to have my period the following week so the doctor warned me about abnormal periods with birth control but the following I didn't get my period instead I spotted for two full weeks and after that never had a period aside from spotting a few days after sex but doctor said that's completely normal plus pregnancy symptoms almost every month but nexplanon makes you're body think you're pregnant so pregnancy symptoms are completely normal, other than that no weight gain I've noticed a little bit of acne but nothing that skin care won't fix, so far nexplanon is great "


"I've been on the patch for almost 24 hours now. the only issue i am having is bad stomach cramps along with diarrhea so hopefully that stops in the next few days. I don't want to get my hopes up just yet but I have noticed that the urgency & frequency has decreased for me."


"I've been on Alesse for three months now, and although I haven't suffered any weight loss/gain, acne or nausea I have felt extremely fatigued and lethargic. Not to mention the fact that my period would randomly start halfway through when I still had 7 or 8 active pills left. And when my period did start I would suffer bouts of depression, crying for no reason, spending all day in bed and entertaining a few suicidal thoughts.

I will be discontinuing use of Alesse and I plan to speak with my doctor about other alternatives.

As a contraceptive the pills work, but they are not worth the side effects I was eduring"


"This is an utter abomination- in my time of need I turned to my savior, 7-Eleven.  I praise the Slurpee God, for without him I could not have made it through this.  After each gulp, I chewed on frozen Slurpee to relieve the agony.   A Slurpee is sweet relief compared to the bitter pain  that this ungodly liquid brings me.  This is the worst taste I have ever had!"


"I have motility issues (i.e., idiopathic constipation) and Milk of Magnesia works, but causes severe bloating, for me. For anyone with this issue, Dulcolax is enterically-coated, so no bloating. But, the urge to 'go' comes on very, very suddenly."


"This pill is great. I have been on it for nearly 4 years without any major problems. I started this pill solely because my bleeding was so heavy, I couldn't maintain my everyday routine when I was on my period. Now, I do not get a period whatsoever which is AMAZING. I have had no weight gain, no breakouts & no mood swings. The only drawback: low sex drive."


"Lyrica works very well with pins, needles, tingling and numbness. The negative side effects were "loopiness", and inability to feel full after eating. I gained 40 lbs very quickly."


"I took first dosage at 1:44 pm and the left side of my head is still throbbing at 725 pm.  Are these reviews legitimate????"


"My Girlfriend got me on tramadol because I had a toothache once and said it would help. Anyway to make a long story short I took it a few times and ended up getting addicted to it. It helps with RLS that I have and helps me sleep BUT when I'm without it I cannot SLEEP AT ALL. The withdrawal is horrible. I don't know if I should be mad at her for introducing this to me or mad at myself for getting addicted to it. If you are not prescribed this by a doctor, do not take it because you become dependent on it. I look back and I was never like this."


"After decades on Levothyroxine I was starting to feel really unwell: tiredness, memory lapses, hot flashes, inability to cope with hot weather, sleeping badly, verbal diarrhea, impulsive behavior, mental fog and constant pressure which made me want to jump out of my skin.  Got very isolated and depressed, lost all creativity and felt I was barely existing.

The changeover was very smooth and problem free. Two days after I started my eyesight seemed to improve drastically, as though a dirty filter had been removed.  On day 5 I felt totally at peace.  Mentally, physically and emotionally it was like going from monochrome to full spectrum HD.  Lots of energy, no hot flashes or mental fog, sleeping well.  I've got my life back!"


"Great. life changing."


"I was given this for 5 days,was a little hyper in the mornings but it cleared my uti right up.Would definitely take it again."


"This medication has helped my A.D.H.D better than other medications."


"I have been struggling with ups and downs since I was 17. I mostly experienced a constant state of unhappiness and bitterness with bouts of exhausting excitement and over confidence during short episodes. The depressive episodes were getting more intense with suicidal attempts and I was told many times I could be bipolar yet never really addressed it. I was put on lamictal 5 months ago and it saved my life. I have a new job, my mariage has been saved and I feel very stable, myself still but only the good parts are left. Amazing. Coupled with therapy it's like a second chance at life!!!!"


"After the first 3 weeks it was amazing. The first 3 weeks I had horrible headaches and nausea but once my body got used to the hormones that went away and I had little to no side effects. I did have weight gain, but I've had that with all the BC's I've tried. I had very heavy periods with awful cramps that were making me miss school/work, and this made my periods very light, regular and with very tolerable cramps. Life saver. I haven't had as good of luck on the "generics" of the loestrin but it got very expensive and then discontinued. Oh, and also no pregnancy."


"Paxil has been providing pretty good relief at 30 mg- not as effective as benzodiazepines, but I was pretty surprised. I've had horrible trials with SSRI's/side effects for Panic Disorder, but Paxil hasn't been as bad - stomach upset for a month adjusting to it - some weight gain, sexual side effects.. mostly gone now 5 months in. Rough guess, I'd say about 75% fewer Panic Attacks.

I've a number of medical conditions, and some medicines will rock the boat, but I'm able to get through with Xanax "as needed" - (used to be 'always' needed).  "


"My blood sugar was between 140 - 160 with both glyburide and januvia. I switched to victoza and the blood sugar levels dropped to between 96 - 110. Side effects are daily diarrhea and occasional "egg burps". I have lost 15 - 20 pounds in 3 months. I guess you got to take the good with the bad."


"Day 7,

No weight loss but im only able to eat 1/2 of my usual serving.

Headache, dry mouth, super sleepy..

Not to bad, I still am able to get 12,000 step in on my fitbit.. sleety or not.

I hope this pill works for me"


"I came to this site to see if anyone else had the same experience with this drug. I had a terrible case of bacterial pneumonia six months ago and have developed asthma as a result of this infection. I live on a farm, am very active, and have suffered from seasonal allergies my entire life, which I managed with antihistamines. My doctor prescribed Singulair to lessen my inhaler use, and at first this drug was absolutely wonderful. Our prescription drug plan would only allow three refills from our local pharmacy, and now I receive a generic refill through the mail. After a few days of taking this generic rx, it was like taking an entirely different drug - the side effects are simply awful! Sadly, I won't be taking this drug anymore."


"I just started week two on Contrave and feel great!  No nausea, headaches or anything (except no appetite) and sleep great!  I admit I was totally nervous to start after reading all the reviews but am on one in the morning and one at night with no issues.  I have cut soda, drink ALOT of water and am trying to eat fewer calories (using MyNetDiary app to monitor - helps so much to make me accountable).  I have already lost 6 pounds and feel less bloated!  One comment stated that they feel like a normal person not obsessing over food...I second that!  Also, make sure you use the prescription card if your insurance doesn't cover!"


"I had a horrible reaction to Cipro! It made me really ill.  "


"Injection WORKS in 7-10 minutes and you can have your life back! Only thing I don't like is the 7-10 minutes.. Hot flashes that can soak your clothing & make your pain a 1000 times more intense. Just wait it out. No more pain, no more loud noises & no more bright lights. I do not like the pill takes too long."


"I have had the problem of facial hair for around 7 years, waxing, laser, plucking worked to an extent but I was still always self conscious as it would come back quickly. I knew there would be something out there to help me so got online and found reviews on this cream. I have been using for around 4 weeks now and the results are amazing. Hair regrowth has reduced amazingly, my skin feels smoother rather than stubbly, and my self esteem when out (especially in bright places) has improved so much! I highly recommend this cream to anyone who suffers from facial hair and has it effect their self esteem. It is expensive, but very worth it. My insurance paid for half of it."


"Lantus SoloStar Pen is easy to use - I get very few "hypos". My levels are more stable. I feel wonderful since using this. I have now been on Lantus for 12 months."


"This medicine made my symptoms so much worse! Hallucinations became worse, everything was just so amplified on this drug. I would not recommend to anyone!"


"I have been using the product for approximately 1 month for my cystic acne. I have yet to notice any improvement in my acne. I do think my face is more smooth and less red, however.  My adult cystic acne is very stubborn and related to my menstrual cycle. I hope it will improve with continued use!"


"Son is making vast improvements in school.  Focus very much improved.  Self confidence increasing."


"I'm going on my third month of Nuvaring. I have had about a four pound weight gain (I attribute it to my eating habits), increased moodiness, and my acne has progressively worsened. However, this is the best and most convenient birth control method I have had. My sex drive has not decreased, no vaginal irritation but excessive lubrication, my period lasts 2-3 days, and no spotting while ring is inserted. My breasts are tender around the second to third week, but nothing severe. Additionally, during my second month I did have a case of nausea and vomiting for about two days; I'm not sure where this stemmed from though. Overall, I give Nuvaring a thumbs up for me."


"After two shots, had swelling in both elbows, stiff neck and pain.   I am not sure prolia is the cause but I will not risk it again or any drugs for osteoporosis.   My immune system was compromised too and I have had several illnesses.   I went from an active fit person to  not being able to perform simple everyday tasks without big pain.   I have had the worst 6 months of my life.  Avoid this medication!"


"The only reason I got on Beyaz was because I developed 2 very large ovarion cysts. My doctor recommended the pill to reduce ovulation wihich would only make the cyst bigger. I was scared that I was going to gain weight. At first I hated the pill because I bleed very lightly for an entire month. My doctor said that was normal for the first month. Then I noticed that my skin was clearing up really nicely. I didn't notice any weight gain, but the best part was Beyaz sorted my monthly cramps. I was so relieved. The only thing I can say that I don't like about Byaz is that if I miss a pill and take it when I remember it seems like over the next 2 or 3 days my acne flares up really bad, and I hate that. Just stay consistent, I recommend it 100%."


"I used to be on Armour...then it was unavailable for a while since they were reformulating it.  I don't know why they had to reformulate it.  It was working fine and is an old reliable drug.  After the reformulation, my side effects (that I didn't have before) included my feet cramping at night.....often.  Changed to Nature-throid and don't have that problem."


"My son was given samples of Allegra ODT by his pediatrician to use until we could get the prescription filled. It worked wonders on his seasonal allergies. He took it regularly while the samples lasted. It was wonderful. Unfortunately, we've been unable to get the prescription filled because the insurance feels something cheaper should work just as well. We want Allegra ODT."


"Since starting this brand of birth control two years ago I have gained forty pounds. During the two years I exercised thirty minutes a day seven days a week. Despite the weight gain this pill worked very well for me and I never had any other problems."


"This medicine is helping me - I feel better in general.  I have taken it for 2 weeks and gained 10lbs.  All I think about is my next meal and then snacks.  It is crazy, I can't help but eat, eat, eat.  I have called my doctor to see about switching me to something else.  I can't continue gaining weight like this. I may have to find some diet pills to off-set the cravings. If you are depressed and underweight this is the pill for you."


"I had protected sex, but the condom broke. I didn't know until I saw a piece of the condom 24 hours later. I took Next Choice about 12 hours later (36 hours?) of the incident. I got my period 5 days early. My only side effects were headaches."


"It was prescribed to treat a bad sore throat. It didn't help. After taking it not only did the sore throat remain, but I developed vaginitis and diarrhea that took me long to cure. Be careful if your immune system is sensitive to antibiotics and make sure you also take an effective probiotic while on this."


"I started with 2 x 25 mg capsules a day. After 2 days I really feel my knees are out of pain. I hope the effect will remain after leaving the medicine."


""Duragesic" is an excellent chronic pain medication:  no euphoric issues following the first couple weeks of use and initial body adjustment, etc., steady pain relief with minimal "Ups and Downs" in effectiveness (i.e., break through pain).  However, myself, as with many users, find that it is necessary to change the patch every 48 hours, vs. the potential 72 hours (i.e., obviously this is with your doctor's approval). Also, putting the patch on takes a degree of practice and again, as with many, find it necessary to cover it with an approved "3M Tegaderm Cover"  to prevent premature loss of adhesion. "


"I am on day 6 of taking Lexapro and I must say that I am very pleased with the results so far. My husband is deploying and I began experiencing panic attacks and anixiety back in May. I thought it was just me and I could brush it off or "get over it". As time went on, I noticed that my symptoms became worse. I was crying everyday, worrying, panic attacks, aniexty attacks and having intrusive thoughts, which began to make me extremely depressed. I had no energy, insomnia, crying, mentally exhausted and no appetite. I finally broke down and went to my GP and told him what was going on. He recommended several different anti-depressants. I had been reading about the different anti-depressants and found that Lexapro got the best reviews. I was reluctant to begin taking meds but thought I had no choice. I know it might be premature but I feel 100% better that I did a week ago. The only side effect that I experienced was a insomnia for the first 3 nights, loss of appetite and no libido. I didn't have much of a libido to begin with, so it doesn't bother me. I didn't experience nausea like I read on other reviews. I am slowly getting my appetite back and sleep so good at night. It makes a little groggy first thing in the morning but once I get up and get going, I'm good. I take 10 mg every morning. My doctor wants me to increase my dosage to 20 mg after 2 weeks but I will wait and see how I feel. I highly recommend this medication. It has really helped me. I feel so much better!!!"


"I had sex Saturday after my period finished the first comdom broke and he said he had came a little on it. So the nextday which was Sunday I bought the contaceptive and took it. A few days later on thursday I started spotting reddish brown and the next day which is today friday I started bleeding heavy like if it was my period. Which is weird because I had just finished my period 6 days ago. BTW I'm 18 going on 19. Is it normal?"


"I took this medication for about 8 months and developed a pulmonary embolism. I'm 26, non smoker, 115lbs, very healthy. Birth control causes blood clots in many women. Please be aware of this. Especially if you have pain in your legs or start to feel a tightness in your chest. Never would I anticipate this happening to me."


"This is the only medication that has successfully relieved and aborted the onset of cluster headache "events" during my twenty year history of cluster headache attacks."


"7 year old with ADHD, with the HD prevailing. Started 10 mg Metadate CD in the morning and teacher reported night and day difference, but late in the day was night marish. Grouchy, no focus and constantly arguing. Doctor decided that it metabolized quickly and was out of his system too quickly. Started 20 mg in the morning and saw immediate improvement in the afternoons. BUT...vocal and motor tics began, up to 7-10 a minute, and we stopped it right away. Started 0.25 mg Guanfacine to relax the system, up to 3 mg now. Tics have lessened, but still present daily. Tried Adderall, but aggression and moodiness appeared. Back to Metadate CD, paired with Guanfacine, school is better, still some moodiness, but overall an improvement."


"Im 16 and I've been taking for 2 weeks and a day on 50mg once a day and haven't really seen a diffrence but hoping for the best cause it makes me really inscure."


"This stuff is really awful.
Within a week tore my bicep,
Hands felt like cerebral palsy set in.
Absolutely the worst medicine I have ever taken!!!
Beware beware beware!!!"


"Whenever I have to use it, there's no burning or itching. I'm a nurse and I can tell you now, if you do use it and you experience burning, itching, etc then that is only cause there's more going on than just a yeast infection. Monistat has an active ingredient that CAN cause these symptoms, not in every case tho. So I suggest not putting the external cream on your vagina period. If you take any other medications, it will cause burning/itching because your meds and the monistat is counter acting and your body can't handle that. So ladies please consult with your doctors before using it. If you have an STD. UTI, pregnant or are on any type of antibiotics or any medication, DO NOT USE MONISTAT until those things are cleared up first."


"I have read many bad reviews on this treatment, so let me tell you my positive one.  I am early 60s, very active, slightly built and failed my bone density scan.  Did my research (very important) and found a fabulous young female rheumatologist.  After viewing all of my prior dexa scans we tried one Fosamax (I had been on Evista for four years prior due to healed multiple ulcers).  The Fosamax reaction was very bad but the gastric distress eased up finally.  We decided on the Reclast infusion. The injection was pleasant, the people great.  I went to work.  Had a headache for three days, took medicines for the headache but carried on my regular business.  This was one week ago. I feel great."


"Close to my 20th birthday my face broke out with horrible painful acne. Everything I tried didn't help at all. I always wash my make up off morning and night and that didn't even prevent it. I finally went to my dermatologist and after trying all of there topical creams before in the past my dermatologist recommended accutane. I was nervous to take it so he told me to try aczone. It's been almost 10 weeks and nothing has really improved except a little on my chin and forehead. My cheeks are still red and inflamed. I wouldn't recommend this product but of course there are all kinds of different skin types that it works better on than some but I guess mine wasn't the lucky one."


"I've taken amitriptyline off and on for 8 years & have had migraines for almost 30 years (I'm 41). 25mg cuts migraines down to 3-4/month (rather than the 5-10 /month I get with no medication), and carb cravings are quite manageable. No weight gain at 25mg, even after several months. When I tried 50mg, I had a hard time controlling carb cravings and gained 10lbs over 2 months; but, I didn't make much effort to fight carb cravings. I suspect if one exercises moderately and watches carb intake, weight gain can be avoided, even at "higher" doses (25mg+). I'm now taking 40mg. Side-effects from anti-convulsants & beta blockers were intolerable for me- far worse than the dry mouth & carb cravings I get with amitriptyline. A great drug overall."


"This is the only medication that has ever taken away my anxiety completely. I was on it for 5 months and decided to try and quit the medication and it was the worst experience of my life. I now feel like I can't function anymore. My performance at work is slipping and I feel like I am losing my grip with my general anxiety disorder. I have tried Celexa, Zoloft, Lexapro and Remeron with no luck. This medication was a Godsend and when I was taking it I was only taking 0.5mg 1x a day. I did not feel like increasing the dose nor did I feel like I was addicted to it. I did not have a bad withdrawal coming off of it either, other than my anxiety has returned to the same levels it was prior to the medication. This medicine was a miracle for me."


"Awful awful medicine!! Started take 30 mg once a day for Chronic pain at day 19 I had horrible heart palpitations my Dr suggested I get off the medicine by taking one every other day. I tried that after taking one then skipping a day the next day I took another which gave me an awful migraine! I have imitrex for migraines but couldn't take it because in was on cymbaltia so I suffered though a 24 hour migraine! I had to just stop talking it at this point. I've had awful electrocution feeling in my brain for 10 days!! I'm enraged and I'm never like this! Awful, awful drug the people that made this should b ashamed of themselves!!!"


"It has changed my life and helped me so much."


"I was nervouse taking this at first, always have been afraid to take laxatives. After about 2-3 weeks now I've noticed that for the first 12 hours or so after taking Linzess, I have no appetite and very loose BM almost to the point of diarrhea. After that 12 hour window, I'm right back to constipated and in pain from the stomach/intestine cramps. Need to contact the Dr to see what to do now."


"I've been dealing w. chronic migraine for about four years now. Just don't really know why I get them honestly. But I do know that certain things triggers the migraines, like loud noises & severe temperature. Anyway, I did my first round of botox injections about 3 weeks ago. My headaches are coming just about every day now. I'm thinking it's definitely the Botox thats kicked in because I work in a quiet area. The injections were FINE.. Just hoping round 2 works. But that is as far as I'll go. I quit meds about a year ago. They all failed to work after 3-5 months of use. I'm only 22. It is the most irritating, emotional, & aggravating thing I've ever had to deal w. Just wanted 2know if anyone here does anything 2help them?? Maybe exercise,meditation"


"I first started on Vicodin 9 years ago. Well, I eventually became a full blown addict on other things. Started Suboxone 5 days ago and finally feel life coming back in to this empty shell I called my body. Fell into withdrawal the first dose because I took it too soon but 5 days later and I'm feeling great. Sleeping has been a little difficult as well. It felt great to come home from work today and know that the money I made will be going to something that was slowly killing me.  Thank you Suboxone."


"After 12 rounds of Avastin which were effective in bringing down my protein marker CA 125 to 10 to 14.  However, I experienced numerous side effects (thankfully not all at the same time) which I was able to handle.  Following the 12 rounds I was no longer able to tolerate Avastin as I had very high numbers showing protein in my urine. My oncologist was concerned about kidney damage and I stopped taking this drug."


"Gave me short, light periods but caused terrible acne, headaches, and decreased sex drive."


"Worst pill ever!!! I started taking this pill to regulate my period, clear my skin, and combat night sweats. I figure at mid 40s, I might be just now losing to much  estrogen.

Within one week, I went from having a high sex drive to none. I had hot flashes all day and was sweating like a gross animal, which only increased my acne. The fun continued as I had day long anxiety! There was no way I was waiting to see if my body regulated.. This pill got the trash!"


" I know everyone's body reacts differently to hormones, but the nice thing about IUD's are that the hormones are released in your uterus instead of being digested and absorbed into your blood stream. Of course, the hormones still get into your blood, but it has less effects on the body since it's more controlled to one area. The insertion definitely hurt and I had slight cramping the first day of insertion, but it was completely gone by the second day. Also had a major cramp, that felt like when I got it inserted (only lasted 2 minutes, maybe). DR informed me that the Skyla does move & reposition during the first few months & that's what that pain was. LOVE SKYLA"


"I can't say a bad word about citalopram because it worked well for me. I quit smoking and was so happy, started going to yoga. After couple months I had to stop taking it because had a horrible rash and sexual dysfunction obviously...I wasn't happy about it and my boyfriend thought that it's his fault."


"Took the first dose of trulicity 1.5 Friday 12/09/2016.  Saturday was fine.  blood sugar was ok.  Taking with 75 units of Lantus in AM and PM.  Sugars are much better (97 this morning).  Side effects are real for me though.  But they are side effects I have been getting occasionally for the past year, before I started on Trulicity.  The major issue for me is stomach cramps, gas(both ends).  Sulfur burbs are really really bad.  Tons of gas.  I vomited once -  and felt much better after doing so. Since I was experiencing these side effects randomly over the past year, I wonder if it's the lantus - with Trulicity magnifying it.  Pure speculation. at this point.  Dr for another dose tomorrow.  I will take it and see what the next week brings."


"I took my first dose today.  The first thing I noticed was tingling in my legs and hands.  As the day progressed my legs have felt less heavy, my left leg has dragged much less, I'm not shaking as bad and I have a lot more energy.  I can't wait to see how I feel by the weekend."


"When I first started LoSeasonique, I had light spotting within a week that only lasted four days.  Now I have finished my first three packs and didn't get my period when taking the yellow pills.  I am now 1 1/2 weeks into the next batch and still no spotting or anything!  I Think I should get a preagnancy test just to be sure but If Im not preagnant Then this is the best Pill ever!!!  So far I have not had any other side effects that many have had."


"This has been a life changing pill for me. Unlike others I did not feel that it kept me up at night. I took one at 11pm and feel right asleep after. It was one of the greatest sleeps I had ever had. This has been a real game changer to my cough and congestion."


"Didn't do much for my allergies.
"


"I had severe anxiety and had difficulty, in training classes, at work until I started taking this medication.  This medication has allowed me to stay calm through the most frustrating situations.  It is an amazing treatment."


"Worked wonders for helping upper airway congestion! HOWEVER extreme disturbing dreams felt like I was going crazy! Dizzy and scatter brained, this was about 10 hours after taking 1."


"Works. I had unprotected sex one day after I stopped menstruating completely. And I thought I would have to wait longer than mentioned on the reviews here to get my period. But it started in 6 days, and I could never be more relieved about a second period in the same month. Until I got my period I didn't have any side effects except extreme sleepiness. During my period I am feeling weaker than usual and no cramps yet. The bleeding pattern seems different (amount, colour ) But I presume that is one time and to be expected."


"With Schizoaffective Disorder, as well as the other psychiatric illnesses, years of medication adjustment and readjustment are necessary. Lamictal was recommended for me, at the same time, by both my psychiatrist and neurologist. Lamictal was added to my usual medication regimen. I feel it has been one of my "miracle medications". I've never experienced any side effects from Lamictal."


"My 22 month old daughter has been on it for 1 1/2 weeks. Is done to two seizures a day but she is clingy and irritable. Her P.T came and she screamed the whole time she was here, usually she works well with her."


"Wife has taken for 2 years, no improvement, steady decline in symptoms."


"I have suffered from constipation and IBS forover 40 years.  The drug works great, no gas, no cramping.  I still have occasional problems and occasionally diarrhea.  I will soon find out if it works as well when I travel -- which has been terrible in the past.  If it works when I travel it will be a miracle!  The price, however, is shocking and so in order to buy it at all, I have to order it from Canada."


"I always wanted Nuvaring and now my insurance covers it. It's amazing. I'm not weirded out by my own body so I have no problem inserting and taking it out. I don't have to remember to insert it at the same time every day, so automatically I'm a perfect user! I had no side effects, which would make sense since its a lower dose at a constant rate. My sex drive has actually increased, not likely from the ring itself, but from the peace of mind knowing I didn't forget a dose. Totally recommend to anyone who can afford it, or who have bad memory and rather pay for the ring than for an accidental baby."


"Started taking the product for health maintenance and it was also recommended by my internist after a colonoscopy and early signs of diverticulitis. Also my wife who is a RN nursing supervisor has used the product for years and rightfully claims it reduces bathroom "paperwork". I think the product is gentle acting and good when used regularly. and over times does what it is supposed to. I like the powdered version and think the taste is good.  This product is a startng place to clean up inside out and get the benefits of more energy, better health. I also think some folks would benefit from stronger more "kick butt" once a year type  colon, liver and kidney body clenzing from Dr Schultz or others, for major healing and slowing the aging process."


"I found Nuvaring mostly unproblematic, convenient, and easy to use. (I did have mood swings that might be attributable to it, but it's hard to say, since there were other factors involved.) The main problem, however, was that I had frequent breakthrough bleeding: after 7 months use it was like I was having a very small period 20 days out of the month! Very annoying, to say the least. The doctor told me that meant the hormone dosage was too low for me and has proscribed Kariva for me instead, so we'll see how that goes."


"When I'm at my worst or I literally have so many racing thoughts or I get to agitated I take a half or 1mg, smoke tobacco and I'm fine, it's amazing I have not found this drug addictive, I only need it when I'm thinking or on a anxiety attack.
Going to a psychiatrist and am hopefully going to be prescribed it, it has blessed me and made me think clear thoughts without over thinking. Best suited if your diagnosed with adhd, anxiety, panic attacks."


"I found it to be very effective in the first 6 months of use. My period pain would start to subside within the first 15 minutes after taking it and it lasted for about 12 hours. Now it takes at least 1.50 hours for the pain to even start to subside and it only lasts for about 6 hours. It makes me so tired to the point where I have to take a nap and when I get up from my nap I feel extremely tired and "out of sorts". This feeling usually lasts the rest of the day no matter if I take a nap at 11:00 AM or 4:00 PM. So I only take Ponstel now when it is absolutely necessary."


"I have been on many muscle relaxants, Soma has been the best I have ever taken."


"This has been great - no side effects except larger than normal breasts I went up a cup size. I am ONLY switching to Alesse due to costs - Seasonique is expensive."


"Took two Candesartan 8mg. 12 hours after the second dose, I started to feel something in my throat. The beginning of an allergic reaction. I had a quite severe throat swelling. It only lasted 12 hours. Be careful when you start using this drug"


"In July 2015, I had experienced a huge pain in my lower abdomen. The pain went on for three months when I was finally able to see the gynecologist after two months and a half of being on a waiting list. They ran a lot of tests on me and I was told I had an ovarian cyst the size of a golf ball. I have never had a surgerys and I am terrified to even be told Ima have to get any type of surgery. Well my doctor recommended me take birth control to help with pain and possibly reduce the size of the cyst. I started taking Tri-Previfem in the beginning of November 2015. When I went for my checkup on November 23, 2015, the cyst had been reduced from the size of a golf ball to the size of a pinto bean!! I totally recommend this birth control"


"I can't believe how great this medicine works. I have had psoriasis since I was 12 years ol. I am now 58 and finally I am clear of the scales and red patches."


"Nuvaring seemed like the perfect option for me. I'm a college student, so life can be crazy and I never know where I'm going to be at what time of day I used to like to take the pill. The first month wasn't too bad, but after that I started noticing some serious changes. I started feeling tired almost all the time, even after 9 hours of sleep. My sex drive decreased to nothing. If I wasn't wanting to have sex, then what's the point of taking birth control and paying so much for it every month. I started having really bad effects on my emotions. I would go from being happy to sad within a second. It was nothing for me to randomly start tearing up for no reason. I never had this problem on the pill. I'm switching back."


"My neurologist put me on just about every preventative medicine on the market and none helped stop my clusters.  A high dose of Verapamil ER finally did the trick. (240 mg 3x a day)  After almost 25 years of episodic cluster headaches I have finally been virtually headache free for about 3 years now! I am a bit worried about the side effects of taking such a high dose for such an extended time though.  I've recently been having some voice issues and I'm wondering if there is a correlation."


"I've been having some knee pain for the past 6 months. I stand all day at work, 9 hours a day, 6 days per week. PT helped some but the pain always comes back. My family DR. gave me Mobic and a steroid shot. I'm pain free for over a week now. I'm very happy so far. No side effects at all. I thought I was allergic to NSAID's but this is giving me no issues at all. Hopefully it will continue to work well for me."


"I was on acutane (claravis) the first 2 months my acne actually got worse but after that my face started clearing up. The reason I'm not giving this a full 10 is because I had more negative effects than I did good. Granted, my acne did go away but only for it to come back 2 months after I was done. I didn't experience a dry face which is a very common side effect but I did get horribly dry lips. My hair would fall out in CLUMPS through out the day. I gained 20 pounds while on this medication made my heart get irregular palpitations and I also experienced shortness of breath. My cholesterol levels were also all wacked out.Horrible joint pain! All of this for my acne to end up coming back.Think twice before putting your body though This"


"I have been on Lo/Ovral since I was 18. I was taking the other generic, Low-Ogestrel, up until last month. The pharmacy switched generics. Ever since I started taking the Cryselle I have cramps constantly and always feel bloated."


"Helped pain a lot."


"This is great. I started the pill on 4/16 at 5.4" 172lbs now today 4/18 I am 167lbs. Thats 5lbs in 2 -3 days. I have to remind myself to eat and I walk for about 60 minutes a day. My goal is to get to 135lbs, with this pill I am sure to meet my goal within 2 months. Please be sure to eat healthy and your mouth will be dry so drink plenty of water or chew gum."


"Lost 36 lbs in 60 days. Stopped the pill for 4 weeks and gained only 2 lbs up and down, so no real weight gain. When taking the pill, stick to a 5 meal a day plan to keep your metabolism kicking. I had no side effects other then minor sensitivity, funny feeling, while urinating. I slept about 6 hours a day and did not need coffee. Best of all my low T became normal after losing 15% body fat."


"I've been on Alesse twice, this time for 2 months so far. I've had no problems at all. I have polycystic ovarian syndrome and it's fixed my period so far. My complexion is getting better, I've had no unusual depression or anxiety and I haven't gained additional weight.

"


"I have had my skyla for approx 1.5 months, so far I am in love with it. Not only am I sparing myself a costly month expense, but it was completely covered under the affordable care act, including the follow up appointment to insure everything was as it should be. The insertion was quite painful for me, both on the day of the procedure & the following week. I got mine inserted with out being on my cycle, which to my understanding is more difficult & painful. But I also think it gave me an advantage,I had no spotting or anything except the cramps for over a week.After that I had a bit of spotting, but not too bad.I got my first period, which was delayed by about 2weeks, I'm not going to lie about it,it was pretty excruitating,always has been."


"I've been on his drug for about three weeks now. I'm on the 1.8 mg currently, and have lost about 14 pounds. The only side effect I've experience was a little nausea and some fatigue. I can't believe I finally found something that seems to be working. I'm not hungry all time and is very satisfied with the small portion of food.  I have a lot of dry mouth issues, but glad I do. I'll be able to take in more water, which is what I struggled with.  I need to lose in additional 35 pounds to get to where I need to be. I'm confident that this miracle drug will help do the trick!"


"I have been on this medicine for three weeks and I am using it with retin-a nightly. I can say that this medicine seems to be doing the job for me. I did read some reviews that said this medicine may make your face worse before it gets better, but that was not the case for me. However, my face did seem to appear quite dry, but not to the point where it would hurt/burn. Only a couple patches of my face seemed to be dry and I am sure to apply moisturizer an hour after applying retin-a. Moisturizer will be your bestfriend when using this medicine (I highly recommend cetaphil moisturizer). I had lots of comodones on my forehead and now, I have just a few which can be tolerated. Hopefully they will go away within 2 months."


"I was given prednisone for 7 yrs, I was told to get off or die. It took me 1 full yr to get off of them as we has to do it mg by mg each month. I got completely off for last 2 months, I cried every day, could hardly walk, started using a cane and wheel chair when I did get up the strength to go out. Two days ago I said SCREW this! I started on just 5mg, today I'm up and walking, no cane, I walked freely!!!! So I die earlier,? At least I'm going out able to hang out with family for as long as I can ! I've told them all my decision, they don't like , but they have their mom back, and can see how much better I am compared to 3 days ago. Yes u can gain weight, I've gained a lot in those 7 yrs,60 pounds. I'm gonna fix that!"


"Works well for RLS, but I have been having increasing anxiety issues, and sleep problems, not taken it for 2 days and already feel so much better, I have just been put on Topamax for migraines that has also been shown effective for RLS and so far no return of symptoms, just feeling better!"


"I started taking Paxil about two and a half months ago after many different antidepressants. I was extremely fatigued until the exact 2 month mark then it was like a light bulb went off. I no longer felt exhausted or depressed. The social anxiety no longer plagued me though I don't feel it has been a total cure. But overall, I feel really good. Strangely enough, I have no side effects. No sexual side effects. No sleep issues. Nothing. Paxil is my top choice for the antidepressants I have tried. I am diagnosed bipolar and ADHD as well so I also take an atypical antipsychotic, stimulants, and Xanax strictly for panic attacks. Paxil has really softened the edges for me in combination with everything else I take."


"I never got my period regularly, but I once I started taking this I stopped getting it altogether. No joke, I gained over 50 pound in the year and change I was on this, and I can't attribute more than maybe 5 or 10 pounds to lifestyle changes. I went from an A/B cup to a D cup as well, and towards to end I was exhausted 24/7 and sleeping up to 18 hours a day. I can't say much about what changes once you stop as I've only been off of it for a week or so now. I take other medications too, and this was the first birth control pill I'd been on, so I wasn't sure at first if the birth control was the one causing all this for a bit, but I'm fairly certain it is now."


"I have suffered from obsessive compulsive disorder and generalized anxiety for years. Anxiety, depression and bipolar run in my family and for some reason I have been hesitant to get on medication. I have a very stressful job and am currently in graduate school...and finally decided enough is enough. I have been on Zoloft for 2 days and I can already tell a difference. The tightness in my chest is gone from chronic stress and I feel happier. I am kicking myself for not getting on this medication earlier."


"I got diagnosed with kidney infection yesterday and just started taking Cipro. It seems to be working quite well. Still have little pain and am bloated from the water but am doing okay."


"My VA Dr. prescribed Topiramate (Topamax) to me for my Migraines and not only has my appetite decreased, so has my Migraines and my weight.  He also added Magnesium and the combination has been nothing short of amazing.  Topamax has really been great and I've had no side effects at all, I take 1-50MG tab in the morning and 2 at night and I've been dropping weight, migraines gone and getting back to my old self."


"It helps so much. Before this, my life was miserable with the morning nausea then vomiting tons of acid straight from the stomach. It is not a way to live. We need to be grateful we have resources such as Nexium and other options to help and to treat these conditions. I know for sure in my case!"


"I have posted early before about my 1st & 2nd week using Retin A 0.025 cream. My 3rd week was much better than my second week, some of my acne stared to calm down and my face felt less bumpy. During this week I started to use the cream 4 times a week because my cheeks were hurting. My 4th week was the most improvement. I started to use the cream every night again since my face had stop hurting. During the 4th week most of my pimples disappeared and my skin felt smoother, I still had some pimples popping up but not as much. Now my cheeks are pretty smooth with a couple pimples but my cheeks are really red from the scars that were left behind from the pimples. I'm hoping they will slowly fade later. Will keep updating!"


"Good drug"


"This medication helps with my break through pain."


"I had my first implant in November of 2012 and haven't had a period since and I'm now on my second implant. I had a light, irregular period before but this has completely eradicated them and I couldn't be happier. I've had monogamous sexual partners ejaculate inside and I've never had anything close to a pregnancy scare. This birth control is honestly the best thing that's ever happened to me. Honestly the numbing shot is worse than the actual incision for inserting/removing and just left a small bruise. I can't tell if it's affected my mood because I am on psych meds for other reasons and was before I started nexplanon. No weight or gain or acne either. This thing is a miracle for me."


"I liked the fact that this medication help me focus but it seemed as I was very "distant". I didn't like how it made me just not want to move or do anything.  I am 24 and just recently found out I have ADHD and it is most likely I have had it all my life. I have trouble with finishing what I start and just can't stay focused! So right now it is just trying to find the right kind of medication for me before I start back up at school in January."


"First time getting an STI or anything of that nature after just starting to be sexually active. I had no symptoms. I'm in my early 20s. I was initially concerned because it was all very new to me. I went to get treatment, took one dose of four pills, my doctor advised me about the side effects and sent me along my way. Worst thing I did was Internet on the way home. Reading about the side effects with horrible cramping and diarrhea really scared me.

Final verdict: It's been almost six hours after taking the antibiotics and I've experienced no discomfort whatsoever. I feel perfectly fine. There was lots of white, odorless discharge in my underwear but that imo is a small price to pay. Using condoms 4evr now."


"My girlfriend took Plan B on the 12th of May, 4 hours after our "incident" she didn't have any physical side effects but she did get very emotional. She would cry about everything - but she wasn't stressed about pregnancy. She got her period on 8 days later on the 20th. I'm telling you guys, don't stress out - as long as you took it within your 72 hours, you will be fine. Remain calm, put on your favorite movie and think positively!"


"I've had it for three years now. I had my period one about every six months which left me with horrible cramps. My arm still sometimes hurts where it was inserted at. Other than that it's great. I think if you get on a birth control it should be this!"


"When I was first prescribed it, it was pretty nice. It stabilized my mood and turned off the "static" in my head, and could think way clearer. My family commented on how much I was more like myself again. However, over time, I think it lost its effectiveness and eventually suffered a bout of akathesia. I switched to Geodon, which I find better than Latuda."


"I am only on day 2 for anxiety. I was on Effexor before for 7 years and it has helped my anxiety a lot but it recently stopped working. My doctor said it can happen when our bodies get used to the medication. I also didnt like the no libido side effect of effexor but I never bothered changing because it was working for anxiety.

Pristiq is already calming me down. I havent had heart palpitations. My thoughts alone would create the heart palpitations and the effexor wasnt doing the job anymore in avoiding the phsysical sumptoms of anxiety. Pristiq seems good so far.

pristiq brought my libido back !:)

Also my insurance covers for the most part so I only pay $20/month. Im in Canada too ;) without insurance it would be about $90/month"


"I'm on week 6 of Prozac and it saved my life. I went through a semester of major life changes (engagement, graduation, moving across country, major weight gain from stress, living with fiancee's parents, and stopped being able to see my friends) which resulted in me becoming severely depressed. I've NEVER been depressed in my life I'm the most bubbly person ever. Well when I started to get into a deep black hole and also having suicidal ideation (never had before) I decided to go to the doctor. She started me on 10mg for 4 weeks and with some change (75% better) we decided to try 20mg for 100%. I'm only on week 6 of being on prozac all together and it saved my life, my relationship and my joy. PLEASE give it time. I'm praying for you all!"


"This is the 3rd pill I've been on, and I have mixed feelings. Simply because I don't get regular periods whatsoever and that is really scary. Other than that it's great."


"Definitely helped keep me asleep, but when I woke up the next morning, the first morning void (urination) was painful from not going during the middle of the night!  Plus, I had a groggy, hangovers like feeling the entire next day.  Skipped a day to make sure the Atarax was the reason, then when I took it again, same exact thing.  It doesn't knock you out, but it does help with nocturnal.  At this point, I'd rather wake in the middle of the night to void instead of waking up in so much pain with a hangover that I didn't at least enjoy getting.  Plus, holding it in increases your UTI chances, and those are doubly not fun with IC."


"Started taking it out of a Mental hospital after 3 weeks no sleep. Went home with 100mg, worked so so at first, kept me asleeep 4 hours, pop another one sleep 4 hours. 20 years later started back on it. I take 100mg at night, sleep 3 hours, can't go back to sleep and feel like I'm so hungover, head splitting open like worse sinus problems ever, heart skipping, side effects made me QUIT, I feel better NOT sleeping than 8 bottles of Jack so to speak."


"I have been on Lyrica for 5 years and it has changed my life so much. I had pain all over and could not figure out why. I went through so many test and procedures to help and nothing did. I found a Dr. who put me on Lyrica 50mg three times a day and after a couple of days being dizzy I realized that my pain was almost gone. I am now taking 150mg three times a day and I have my life back. I have gained weight because food taste great now. Make sure you never run out though. It happened to me on vacation and I was so sick from withdrawal. It is the worst feeling in the world, all the pain was back and I felt like I had the worst flu ever. As soon as I got home and got my refill I was fine. Great medicine, but they do need to tell you more about withdrawal. I love Lyrica."


"I've been on OrthoCept for almost 4 months now and I haven't had any problems. The only side effects are tender breasts, changes in weight but not bad only when I get lazy and occasional dizziness. I think it's pretty good"


"I can judge this medication being successful due to fewer holes in my drywall and fewer injuries. I can't usually remember my seizures so I base them on others input and injuries from thrashing. I take 250mg, which seems to have cut down incidents to almost zero - major gratitude there."


"I got some free samles of Lolo from my women's clinic so I decided to try it. I normally take Alesse and have been on a few other different brands in my lifetime. A few days after I started taking Lolo I started to bleed, I chalked this off as being spotting that some people experience (which I have never had before). The bleeding did not stop, it got worse and my vagina started to become painful and itchy. I bled throughout the entirety of the month I was taking Lolo and when I finished my pack of pills, I did not continue on another month. Within days of stopping taking them, I FINALLY stopped bleeding and the discomfort down there went away. "


"I feel that my legs are a bit stronger on this medication. It's great to feel a bit more confident when walking."


"I started a pill at first, in 2011. Istarted having terrible periods, so bad I would miss class, so in 2012 I started the depo shot. Periods and symptoms went away just like that! I did gain some weight, especially in my breasts, but at the same time I started eating a lot of fast food and going out to eat when I started working in fast food. My doctor switched me to this pill for a month that started my period so I switched right back to depo that next month! Rating 8/10 because I'm scared of getting news I won't be able to conceive because of other articles I've read about the shot."


"Seven days on Contrave.  I travel all week for work and am a comfort/stress eater totally addicted to sugar.  Our family has a long history of diabetes.

Only one side affect, mild dry mouth.   Noticeably less craving for sugary snacks.  Also less craving for coffee (my normal drink from daylight to dark).  At this point, down 5 lbs with very little exercise.  This was a long week of driving to several states so zero exercise.

Savings from the cost of snacks and coffee I spend at gas stations has already paid my $20 co-pay.  I am very happy with Contrave and wish others could have the same experience I'm having."


"Worked well"


"I got nexplanon about 3 months ago. My doctor had so much hope in it. I've always had irregular periods and that's why she thought it would work so well. When I got it implanted I was on my period, then it stopped for about a week or so. The next week I'm spotting and before you know it I'm bleeding, spotting, bleeding, spotting. I haven't had a day go by where I'm not using tampons or pads. I did notice major hair loss and I've gained 7 lbs already. I also got a concussion a month ago and I think the nexplanon has made some of the symptoms much worse such as headaches, sleep, mood, and energy level. I've been trying to wait it out, but I'm going to call my doctor soon."


"This worked very well for me.  I had a hard time after my mother died and this worked wonders."


"Been on Zyprexa 7.5 due to bipolar for about 8 months or so. It takes the edge off my anxiety and makes me calmer. I get very sleepy about 3 hours after taking it, so now I take it at about 7pm. Without it I had trouble sleeping as my mind would race and not shut up at night. Don't really know if it has affected my appetite or weight, if so just a little.
A couple of times I thought that I felt so good that I didn't need to take it anymore so stopped taking it. And within a week or so the bad feelings would come back.
Looks like I might be on it for the long term."


"I lost 5 pounds in 2 days while pregnant because I could not hold down any solids. A doctor injected Zofran intravenously IV at 10 pm, the next day I woke with tremendous amounts of energy and even ate a fat burger. That effect lasted for me only until about 11 am."


"I felt 1000 mg of Excedrin in morning helped with the pain all day long."


"Oh my gosh! I took this medication  last night and I am experiencing  horrific  diarrhea  and still kinda dizzy this morn. I hope it works after all this. Just sayin. :)"


"I was switched to Avapro from Micardis, two or three years ago, because of cumulative side effects from the latter, including recurring bronchitis and mineral imbalance.  Apparently cumulative side effects have occurred again.  I have now developed something like a chronic sinus infection, one doctor said my tonsils have grown back and are infected, and have suffered with recurring infections in the tear duct of my eye.  I have noticed other changes too, though I'm not sure how many of these may be related to the medication, thus the "5" rating:  I have gradually become an unmotivated and disinterested person, a great change for me.  I hope the next hypertensive medication will have less side effects."


"I absolutely love Dexedrine! It doesn't give me the crash that adderall has and it really keeps me focused on the tasks at hand. I was able to throughly apply for a gig and landed it and I wonder if I would on the alternatives.

I hear they're trying to rid away of Dexedrine to switch over to Vyvance but since that drug has no generic and the two are about 99% similar I'm guessing it is more for profit reasoning.

I'm telling everyone switch over you won't regret it. 1 15mg er/day should be the max for those considering  switching. I read somewhere on here a doc prescribed about 100mg which is too much and the reasoning for your manic state.

Go for trusted generic brands like Sandoz and Mallinkrodt. Teva IS THE WORST. "


"Every month been bleeding twelve plus days.  I've had  it for three months  and no sign of it stopping. Very bad cramps like stabbing.  A lot of chicks like this but I don't think it was worth it at all.  Had me more depressed  I wanted to get rid of periods that lasted six days now forget it two weeks ....  Hate it"


"I'm allergic to lots of medicines but this works."


"I loved this medicine, it stabilized me, helped me sleep without being too drowsy but sadly I have had to be moved off because I gained 4 stone. But that is the only side effect I had."


"I took depo shot August 2016 I have had lighter periods since December 2016 I been coming on and off here it is now January 2017 my cycle still on its been a month since I been on I'm in the 3 months stage to where I won't have any more cycle this is very annoying"


"Was skeptical, but it sure does work, 45 minutes after a 50 mg dose had the best erection in years, was able to get a good one even the next morning. Am extremely satisfied, going to try a smaller dose,think it will be fine for me"


"I'm glad there are reviews for Orthysia, because now I know that I should go to my doctor and talk to them about it, since I'm experiencing the symptoms given in these reviews. I started on Orthysia three months ago due to Lutera being discontinued. In the last two months I've experienced a (frustrating) loss of appetite, mood swings, trouble sleeping and increased heart rate."


"The first week of the medication I felt myself thinking better, no excessive worries, no excessive thoughts of sadness and no pain. My mind was clear, my thoughts and emotions was where they need to be. I felt focused and alert. The only problem was I suffer from high blood pressure, which became out of control.
Effexor even help with my night sweats. I have been depressed for over two years so I really struggled to keep things in order. If I could have continued with the medication I would have stayed on it. It worked for me in a lot of different ways. "


"I've used them all!  Dexilant is the only one that works!"


"I started taking this, because my doctor said that this pill uses a hormone similar to progesterone (what the human body produces). The other pills I've tried (Tri-Cyclen, Yasmin) use estrogen, which is more likely to cause blood clots, heart attack, high blood pressure and stroke.
I had minor spotting, and then no period at all. I have had a few headaches, but I am not sure if they're related. I've also had WAY less of an appetite, which was usually the opposite when I took birth control in pill form. I'd love to have a more natural form of birth control, but at this point, I'm happy with Micronor as a solution."


"This cleared up my acne entirely! It took about 5 to 6 months before seeing results, definitely worth the wait. Its been 10 months and my face is CLEAR.  I get a few pimples here and there but other than that no complaints."


"The best medicine for colds.  Cleared immediately my sinuses and prevented my sinuses from clogging and getting infections that I was prone to.  Works fast, helps me sleep quickly and soundly at night."


"This medication is amazing! My doctor prescribed it to because of the anxiety/depression I had from getting my first cold sore. I went to a baseball game (cold and windy), got drunk and the next day I felt a bump on my lip. I took 4 pills (500mg) immediately then another 4 pills 12 hours later. The sore never progressed and after a few hours the bump was gone! You MUST take them at the first sign of the sore for them to work!! There were no sides effects. These pills are expensive but worth keeping 8 of them on you at all times. They helped me. I hope this helps someone!"


"I took Gabapentin for 7 months. It did nothing to help the sciatic pain. I kept hoping it would eventually  help the pain but the side effects and getting lost and confused in a familiar place that made me quit taking it.  I also experienced garbled speech and balance issues. I weened myself off of it after talking to my doctor.  I was having severe memory problems also and hope it gets better."


"Tried Contrave for 10 weeks; did not lose 1 lb. Was part of the Scale Down program. Daily weighing did nothing to motivate me. In fact, because I lost nothing, it simply reminded me every day it wasn't working"


"Swollen throat.

Persistent dry cough, which caused my blood pressure to increase. For that reason, Lisinopril didn't work for me."


"I began taking Contrave February 2015.  To date (August 2015), I have lost 47 pounds.  This medication is by no means a 'wonder drug'.  You MUST work to lose weight through proper diet and exercise, however; this drug gave me enough of a mental boost to actually want to be active and exercise.  I started off very slow, only 45 minutes of walking about 2-3 times a week.  Over time I have increased my activity level to 5-6 days a week with varied types of exercise.  Prior to taking this medication I didn't identify myself as someone who ate emotionally but having been on it for several months and reflecting on my past behaviors, I was eating during emotional times.  I can not say enough positive things about this medication!"


"I have been on and off again many different anti-anxiety and anti-depression medicines for the past 10 years. At one time I was on Cymbalta, Gabapentin and Propranolol and another time Abilify, instead of Cymbalta. Being on all those medicines made me become manic and numb to the world and feelings. I felt I had no control over myself, so I took control of the situation with my psychiatrist and told her enough is enough. Weaned myself off the medicines, went to counseling and then to my family doctor who prescribed me Buspirone. Was skeptical at first, but WOW! What a difference! I have been on it for about 3 years now. I have been taking 10mg twice a day since day one. I now have control over my life."


"This is the best birth control I have ever been on! I'm willing to pay extra for it. Give it a chance, ignore the negative reviews (everyone is different). This birth control keeps me happy, did not affect my sex drive, continues to keep my skin clear and as an added bonus I gained a cup size. I give it an A, about time something works right for me."


"I was put on this medicine very aggressively (200mg, quickly upped to 400mg) after a suicide attempt. As an antidepressant it is more effective than the first line medications like citalopram. And will help with sleep and a lack of hunger. However I absolutely hate the side effects.

It is often said that antipsychotics "steal your soul" or act like a "mental prison". I would have to agree. To begin with this was fine, with severe depression I was happy to take any way out. However after about 6 months of this I decided enough was enough.

Now I'm off it my personality is back."


"Took Cipro and Bactrim during Chemo and Radiation.  Did not work, may have been because of the Chemo and Radiation, just not sure.   I am now on my 3rd of 5 day Levaquin dose and passed my AZO UTI over the counter test this morning, yea.  Two months of a UTI is a bit much, although, I now know what works for future."


"I was on this medication for 15 years and in this time I did not experience any side effects maybe a little weight gain but nothing drastic. I went from giving birth to the needle straight away and never had a period, spotting or anything. For me it worked but I know some who it didn't work for so my suggestion is try it, if its not for you then stop. what do you have to lose."


"Hello all! I told myself I would write a review if all went well and it did. First things first, I've never been on any type of birth control and me and my partner rarely use condoms because they are painful and often give me chronic UTI's for some unknown reason. Had unprotected sex directly smack in my fertile window at its peak and took plan b 6 hours later. He 100 % did inside so for people not even sure if this has happened and trying to just be safe, relax. I just got my period today, just about on time maybe a few days later than usual. No real side effects to report, no nausea or dizziness everyone's different. I rated this a 10 although $50 out of your pocket it is well worth the money. $50>compared to the cost of raising a child!"


"most potent and reliable  prefer over xanax.... xanax is for sometimes.. only klonopin end up stronger each dose it gets a little stronger so you don't always need another pill"


"Im glad I didn't look up reviews 5 years ago when I started taking this. I've never had a negative side effect, and definitely never had a baby, so I'd say this little pill is my best friend. Understand that the majority of people that leave reviews are the ones with negative experiences. I totally get that, but I'm leaving a review to say that I've never had a problem..other than occasional spotting..until now. Cvs no longer carries Gildess and is switching me take Blisovi fe. I'm leaving this review as a goodbye to the best birth control I could've asked for. I really really hope this new brand is the same."


"I have found that since taking Caduet there has been a big improvement in my cholesterol level and blood pressure."


"This worked on my sinuses, however my heart rate increases so much that I feel jittery. The insomnia is a set back. The relief is great but I'm not sure the things that go with it are worth it.

Although my heart rate being up made me lose weight."


"I take the 40 mg of Relpax as needed for migraines. I have had migraines for over a year now. I also take a daily preventive medicine so I feel like with the preventative medicine that if I need to take the Relpax it is very helpful.

The only thing I do not like about it is that it tends to make my neck and jaw sore. But other than that it does it's job for me and get's rid of my migraines and hardly ever do I have to take 2 of them."


"I've been taking Zoloft since June of 2010. I was really struggling with anxiety and a little depression. I got anxiety so bad that I did NOT leave my house from March until June. I couldn't even go outside with having a anxiety attack, then I tried Zoloft (I've had the pills since February but didn't want to use them. I wanted to try and get over it by myself) and taking the pills was the best choice! I've only had 1 attack since I started taking them and I even feel better with myself. The only side effects I've felt is I can't sleep when I want too, but remember we are all different and just trying it won't hurt. But I definitely recommend Zoloft for anxiety and panic attacks!"


"Since being on Humira, I am a whole new person. It was hard being diagnosed at 29 with a new baby to take care of. I could barely get out of bed, open a jar or change a diaper. I do have headaches often, fatigue and slight mood swings, but worth it. I have my life back."


"I know it's still early to review Chantix, after all, I'm only two weeks in (Quit in day 7). One pack smoker for almost 18 years, I've tried almost pretty much everything to quit: NRT, Zyban, e-Cig. I was a bit nervous about trying Chantix at first, due to it's bad reputation of side effects, but guess what? Nothing, nada, zip, except for a few COOL dreams here and there. But I feel Chantix not only helped me to stop my nicotine addiction, but also my caffeine and alcohol (mild) addictions, oh, and It also certainly cancelled the effects from Ritalin (I have ADHD) somehow, and I've stop taking it, but still, I feel more focused and productive with Chantix than with Ritalin. Chantix should be researched as a ADHD medicine as well! Thanks!"


"I took this about 7-8 hours after I had unprotected sex. I was nowhere near my ovulation or fertile period, but I was still trying to be safe.
My period came exactly a week later. Don't stress! It works!
By the way, condoms are wayyyy cheaper than a $50 pill."


"I have the biggest, reddest and most painful pimples I have ever had in my life. I even have a cyst on the side of my nose. This all started about 1 week after starting this birth control and it has just gotten worse during the second week. I am calling my gyno and going back on Yaz. It is the only birth control that I have ever taken that has made my complexion perfect. Your experience may be different but I am 23 years old and I am completely embarrassed to leave my condo because my skin is so awful."


"One hour after my first dose I had chills, stomach pain and then a SEIZURE. I DON'T RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE."
