"I was prescribed Bactrim twice a day for 10 days.  The first day was ok by 2nd day I had a bad case of nausea and itchy.  3rd day nausea, fatigue, flu like symptoms and feeling cold along with insomnia.   I stopped taking it and gradually I'm feeling myself.  I continued keflex until the infection healed.   I won't take it again.  It's not worth the misery in my opinion."


"I only take Belviq once a day, and I'm eating a low carb, high protein diet. I've been walking so that's not new but I'm down 17 pounds in 30 days.(213lbs to 196 lbs) I'm hoping that increasing my exercise will help a lot too. It works as a great tool for controlling appetite, if you truly are committed.  I'm sure we all know its mental."


"At first I had a pain in my left hand while taking it and almost stopped. Glad I didn't because after a couple of days this went away (mostly) and I started feeling the good effects, most notably is I didn't feel tired during the day, that was a part of my depression so this did have anti-depressant effects on me. I was happier doing everyday things like washing the car, I started cleaning the house at random and found it enjoyable. I do get an occasional headache or pressure would be a better description, so I occasionally take 1 advil with it and it goes away. I noticed, for me, this drug only works when you take it as prescribed."


"I have only given this a 5 to date as I was hoping to get better information on this website as to how other people felt about the drops. Most it seems didn't give it enough to time, it appears,  to find out if it actually works, if asthma and extreme side effects it's understandable. I am the same as them. I used this the first time and my eyes not only burned but they were cloudy and I had to lay down and close my eyes for 20-30 min before it dissipated. I like others was so annoyed by it that I didn't give it a chance. This eye condition has ruined my quality of life at 46. Does anyone else wonder how this came about? You never heard about dry eye disease 30-40 years ago unless you were 90. Now people in 20's have this debilitating cond"


"This medication is the best ever for my break through pain, I take it in between my MS Contin, it has been a life saver for me. I also have IBD and chronic diarrhea. Believe it or not it actually keeps my bowels under control to the point that I no longer have diarrhea, it makes me "normal", and that is a huge plus for me. When the MS Contin 60mg ER wears off, the Percocet I take for break through is an absolute godsend for me. A wonder drug I don't know what I'd do without it. I hope others have the same great experience as I have had."


"I was prescribed this for Bipolar I. I am also taking Lexapro. Taking this sublingually is a pain, mainly because it tastes horrible. I am also convinced that this medicine caused the severe panic attacks I was having, which seemed dose-dependent (I was on both 5 and 10 mg of Saphris). Upon first taking the medicine, I would get severe restless legs that would last for about 3 hours. The medicine makes me very drowsy, but it was hard to sleep with severely restless legs. This side effect went away after about a week."


"This pill is great in theory... Unless you take it on the first day of your period like instructed! Week 3 of this pill, and week 3 of my period. I'm pretty disappointed. And the mood swings I've been experiencing are ridiculous! Bright side, I haven't had any cramping. That's the only good thing I have to say about this pill right now."


"Started Adderall 2 weeks ago. I am still trying to find the right dose. Doctor said "start with 10mg morning and afternoon but if that's to much take 5mg morning and afternoon" I'm finding if I take 10mgs and my day is really busy I am fine but if my day is not than I notice my heart rate and a need to be doing something. I'm not sure about this medicine yet but willing to give it a little more time. I just want to know if the feeling of needing to be busy will end."


"This medicine has changed my life and allowed me to have a semi normal routine even with multiple migraine attacks through the month.  It almost always works for me within an hour and though it is very expensive, it is well worth it.  It is the only medicine I have taken that has helped me."


"I've recently been diagnosed with Essential tremor so started on primidone (50 mg 2X day) and inderol (20 mg 2X day) for 2 1/2 weeks. Tremors initially subsided, but now they are back today as well as struggling with gait again. My jaw feels like it wants to "lock" or a "stiffness".  Looking for a second opinion at this time."


"Doctor prescribed Tamsulosin (Flowmax) for treatment of BPH. After taking for 30+ days, no improvement and ED side effects were terrible. Stopped Tamsulosin and started Cialis 5mg daily, now for about 45 days. BPH conditions have improved and ED side effects have gone completely away. Now trying to get my Medicare Rx insurance company to approve Cialis 5mg for my BPH drug treatment."


"I got athletes foot from the shower room at camp in 2006. From then I had it off and on for years. Finally after years of discomfort and pain and so much itching that I would literally get open sores from it- I finally looked up the best product for athletes foot. And in a few days years of pain and discomfort were permanently gone! Don't ask me why I didn't try it sooner. I love this stuff. It's a little pricey but well worth it. You only need to use a small amount of product so the tube (I bought a cream) lasts for a long time. I believe it says to use it for a week- DO SO. Similar to an antibiotic, you have to use it even after you think it's gone. I didn't and it recurred a week later. Used it for a week and it hasn't come back since."


"Horrible experience with this medicine!!! Now granted, I didn't get pregnant so I guess you could say it was "effective". BUT the frickin mood swings that go along with it!!! I was constantly worried about EVERYTHING. I would go from being in a great mood to down in the dumps depressed within minutes. I would get so frustrated I would *embarrassingly* almost punch my husband during any tiny argument. I also had a headache almost everyday. I have noticed a lot of reviews mention weight gain, I can't say I experienced that per-say but I do notice that after a couple of weeks off of it I have stop craving carbs as much. Good luck to ya if you do try this medication. Just monitor moods"


"Several days after starting cymbalta I started having energy and no pain.  I was so elated. Who cares if you sweat a river?  Who cares if you can't go outside from May through sept?  After taking it for several years I began to slowly turn from my dream to a night mare.  I sweated all year and was hot in the winter as well.  Everyone was freezing and I was hot and didn't want the heat running.  I gained 40 pounds but all the symptoms returned.  I finally weaned down to 30 mg then cold turkey. I have now been totally off cymbalta for 25 days and have gained 10 more lbs.  I can't even buy clothes big enough because my stomach looks 9 months pregnant. My thighs are as big as a professional football player."


"I am 58 and smoked since I was 14. In the last 10 years smoked between 20-25 per day - roll me owns. I have tried Patches - Gum - hypnosis - I was very scared about giving up - then the Doctor gave me Zyban. I did a lot of reading on the Web and there is more scary stuff than good stuff - found this support group with so much positive things to say - I did it - it has been 5 days since my last smoke and it has been mentally wonderful. Still get the physical feeling - but they are getting better. I love this medicine.  "


"At the age of 67 I developed allergic asthma after moving to SW Florida.  I've had chronic sinusitis for years but controlled it with O/C medications.  The multiple asthma attacks (with lack of breath) were daily. I had to use inhalers and a nebulizer.  After 2 years of trying different medications the Allergist said "we're going to try Xolair."  Used it for 6 months and no change.  Have now been changed to Nucala.  Too early to tell its effects.  An inhaler called QVAR seems to be keeping me in good health until the Nucala does its job."


"I was diagnosed with Luekemia in May of 2011. I have been having chemo with Vidaza. I have the seven day treatments every four weeks. I am in remission as of September 2011. The strange side effect is the I no longer have psoriasis, which I have had for 50 years. My skin is now clear and has the appearance of the skin of a twenty year old."


"This medication really helped by anxiety. I took 20 mg one hour before going to work and when my boss asked me how was I, I didn't blush as usual and didn't feel so uncomfortable. Even though I thought the symptoms will come but was surprised that I didn't blush."


"Cymbalta deadened my ability to feel anything emotionally. I had to discontinue."


"This works better than any other depression medicine I've ever taken."


"My Husband and I had unprotected sex. I drove to the pharmacy maybe a couple hours later. Took the plan B contraceptive. After swollowing the pills I thought I was in the clear and forgot about it. Moved on with my life for the next four weeks until I was late for my period. Took a pregnancy test%u2026. IT WAS POSITIVE. Went to the doctors shortly after and my blood work came up positive for being pregnant. All GIRLS please use protection. Please don't rely on this to prevent pregnancy. I thought it would have worked and had a surprise just a few weeks later. Birth control is your best option and track your ovulation cycle. DONT RELY ON THIS PILL!!!!!!!! It may NOT work for you!!!!!"


"I have tried so many things for my insomnia and evening panic attacks. This one works wonders. No more panic attacks at night. No more lying awake for hours."


"While it has worked for my acne (amazingly), the side effects have included tingling of the arm/face/hand, headaches, nausea, diarrhea, chest pain, & dizziness. I will have to cease taking it."


"I had bad Psoriasis behind my ear. Elocon cleared it in just two days. I would definitely recommend it."


"I have always had eczema since a child and have tried different medications but none like this one. It is amazing!"


"I waited a couple of months before I wrote a review because I wanted to make sure it worked. My son, 7yrs old, has been on focal for 3 months. He is doing wonders with it. It helps him stay grounded to get all his daily tasks done and his concentration in school has been awarded by teachers and peers. The only issue is loss of appetite which in turned made him loose 13 pounds in 3 months. With the help of his pediatrician and the staff at the school were on top of him now with a high protein diet and snacks throughout the day."


"I started on this in May 2016.  I take  two at night and two in morning almost straight away it worked. then 9months later I had 2 periods and the flushes have returned worse than they were, 3 or 4 an hour. My doc upped my tablets to three in the morning and three at night still no response. Then up to four tablets twice a day sweats, still the same but now experiencing upper stomach pain unable to sleep. I'm returning to the Doc. Hope I get this sorted.  I'm drained all the time hair constantly soaking."


"I have had cold sores since I was a little kid and I'm always super mad and shocked a lot of the time that I wake up and find one. You would think after getting them forever that you would KNOW when you are getting one. Have used Zovirax, then Abreva became available and if you could time it right it worked AWESOME. I'm a smoker so I frequently spread the cold sores around my mouth, just as one is healing another will show up. Two months of continuous cold sores hurts and is embarrassing. My friend told me about Valtrex a year ago after having cold sore after cold sore. After the first dose the sore shriveled up, second dose they were scabbed and healing. Huge help with the pain factor too. Amazing, if you haven't already, TRY IT!"


"I switched from Hytrin to Clonidine for excessive sweating (SSRI induced - Paxil) because I didn't think the Hytrin was working. Now I realize how much better the Hytrin was.  Clonidine hasn't done anything. No side effects either. "


"I experienced chronic pain for 4 years, I had difficulty sleeping, would go to work, come home and go to bed. Every time I physically exerted myself, taking a shower, preparing a meal, doing household chores, I would need to go lay down. My family would visit me in my bedroom, it was depressing.

Cymbalta has changed my life. I can tolerate the cold, even the grocery store used to bother me. I am much more active and find myself only going to bed when it is time for sleep, I also sleep much better. My family has noticed  a huge change in me, as far as being a part of life again.

This is not without cost..I have the strangest dreams, +30lbs, tired, terribly constipated."


"I was very hesitant to take medication as I had been raised to associate it with seriously mentally ill people in a negative way. Social anxiety had extreme physiological effects on me, though, that therapy could not fix, i.e. the inability to speak loudly over loud noises or when out somewhere like a club, and premature ejaculation. Paxil basically fixed this immediately.

Paxil makes it so much easier to silence negative thoughts automatically. I was and am on a very low dose (10mg) and it works so well. It really did change my life. The only negative side effects are that it makes me sleepy. It also gave me a weird sensation in my teeth for the first month or so, but I actually enjoyed that feeling."


"On Pristiq since it became available switching from Effexor XR to Pristiq.  Less sexual side effects so far than any other SSRI or SNRI I have tried.  Still controlling my cataplexy, sleep paralysis, and REM-related phenomena of narcolepsy. So far so good and no complaints or problems."


"I have taken this medication before, so not sure if something with my body chemistry changed or this medication composition has changed. My experience was a severe allergic reaction causing swelling to my face and lips, with blistering and sores inside my mouth that were extremely painful. I was given a steroid shot and high dosages of prednisone. On day 5 the swelling has just started to go down, but the sores inside my mouth and the scabs on my lips are horrible. I will not take this medication again."


"After seeing a allergy specialist for a grass/tree pollen allergy, I switched from over the counter drugs [Claritin, Allegra] to Veramyst. It works great, and I do not experience negative side effects, such as nose bleed.

If my eyes are itchy, I use Pataday eye drops."


"I was put on Pristiq for postpartum depression.  I had already been on Zoloft but had to stop due to severe fatigue.  I only stayed on Pristiq for 1 week and it was the worst week.  I had horrible headaches, nausea and was suicidal. I had fatigue with this medicine as well.  It definitely did not work for me.  The only good thing is it decreased my appetite significantly."


"Absolutely awful experience with the birth control!! I began having severe migraines with vision problems and major anxiety. The migraines were so awful that I was in the ER twice to receive a shot to stop the pain. The arm I had it implanted into also felt "numb" for a better loss of words. It was such a strange feeling its hard to explain. My friend also was admitted for blood clots after having the implant. I don't recommend this birth control, stick to the pill."


"I have had a cocci infection in my left knee for 25 years (research says it will be chronic).  It took 5 years and 3 surgeries to get a diagnosis.  I got relief the first day I started with Nizoral.  After seven years, I switched to Sporanox 200 mg per day.   Efforts to stop the therapy always followed with relapse.  However, dropping to a 100mg per day maintenance dose after another 5 years kept all swelling and symptoms at bay. In 2004, I was able to stop taking Sporanox and was symptom free until last month (Sept, 2011). Swelling and heat disappeared within a day of restarting Sporanox. Titer blood test results have varied over the history of my infection from 32:1 to negative to 16:1 to again being negative at this time."


"Works well, it has helped me out a lot."


"Although it worked for preventing pregnancy and helped on acne, this pill made me depressed and angry most of the time."


"Side effects are worse than Fibromyalgia pain. I've been taking Lyrica for two months. It was a miracle drug for the first few weeks. I've been living with Fibromyalgia for over 35 years and have tried eveything. Anti depressants, excersise, bio-feedback, acupuncture, narcotics, you name it. So I was excited about the dramatic pain reduction from Lyrica.But now I have developed severe muscle weakness, headache, abdominal cramping, acne and difficulty thinking clearly. I can barely hold myself up and I can't lift anything over a few pounds. I have asked my doctor if I can safely stop taking it. I'm just waiting g for him to return my call. I would rather just live with my horrible pain than take any more of these toxic drugs."


"I"ve been taking cymbalta for 10 years for neuropathy.  I didn't know how effective it was until I decided to stop taking it. My foot felt as if it were in hot coals.  I love it."


"I was prescribed Paxil for situational depression that was pretty severe, merging on PTSD. (I went through a really bad relationship breakup that was traumatic) I also had GAD (general anxiety). I took Paxil for about 8 weeks. It started working right away and I felt so much better I'd say within a day or two. I slept better and woke in the morning without massive anxiety and intrusive thoughts and my depression began to lift. BUT I gained a whopping 20 pounds in the 8 weeks I was on Paxil. It was so awful that I had the doctor wean me off of it . I thought once it was out of my system that the weight would slowly come off but it didn't - I gained another 10 lbs. I think Paxil messes with your metabolism. Will NEVER take it again."


"I have been taking Prozac for anorexia nervosa. I started ever since I was 11. It has helped me with gaining weight. It sucks though cause I was at a normal weight. I have noticed a slight change in my mood.I used to be constantly screaming at myself, telling myself I can't have the foods I want. That voice is kinda gone although it is startING to come back....I have done all I could so that's why my doctor put me on this med.....I am taking 10mg now...They might be upping my dose soon though."


"I started taking Celexa because I told my doctor my mood swings were crazy. It was depression. Well it helped big time! I've been on it for over a year 10mg but sometimes I take 20mg. I am starting to feel more sad now though but its my living situation that is making me sad. Celexa is a great medicine although I never thought I would take anti-depressants. Anyhow I was super skinny, it helped me gain weight and keep it on. So yes you will gain weight on it but other then that it has worked for me until now. Now I don't feel happy but I did when I started taking it."


"I just started taking it and I think it is already working."


"I took Arimidex which was terrible. I really dreaded starting another medication and possible side effects.  However, to my surprise this is far better than I could have imagined.  I almost quit taking any medication because of side effects.  I am very glad I tried this one.  It works for me.  I have learned to keep asking and trying different medicines until you find the one for you."


"This worked amazing with my son. Our biggest problem was he didn't want to eat and lost a lot of weight."


"Note: This review is solely based on the insertion process as I've only had it inserted today.

I had made the terrible mistake of reading reviews and blogs from other people's experience and the majority of them were so scary! I was terrified.

Finally the day came for insertion and even though I was prescribed misoprostol and was told to take 800 mg of ibuprofen, I ended up doing neither. I went in with nothing but determination to get through it and deep breathing exercises.

Long story short, the entire process was less than 5 minutes from the time the doctor entered until the time they left the room. The actual insertion time was maybe 2 minutes. NO PAIN WHATSOVER! No cramping. So don't be afraid!"


"I was prescribed 50 mg to start, and went in with an open mind. After one day I decided it wasn't for me. Maybe 50 mg was too much for me, as I am sensitive to medicine? Anyways, I felt so miserable all day. My head was super foggy and I couldn't think clearly. I don't know how to describe other than just feeling so horrible and wanting to feel normal again. I couldn't do much of anything all day except lay on the floor or bed and feel miserable. I also experienced major TMJ jaw- I wasn't able to get my jaw to relax. I took a hot shower and almost fainted. It was hard for me to see how this would make me feel better ever, even though I know some people do have success with it. I just couldn't bring myself to take it again the next day."


"I have been on Pristiq for the past 12 months. I started on 50mg and went up to 100 mg after about 3 months. The side effects were terrible for the first two weeks. I have no side effects now except insomnia - however i have had insomnia for many years, i just have to make sure i have Pristiq as soon as i get up. I am a much happier and relaxed person and it helped save my marriage. My husband is a saint but only a saint can take so much :)"


"My Dr. Prescribed due to it low dosage. And that I didn't want to take meds. I became so helpless after years of trying to cope with anxiety on my own, I finally reached a point where medicine was my only hope.  It kicked in quickly, my obssesive thoughts stopped, then dosage would wear off so I started taking a higher dosage, then it made me become upset, super emo crying, not myself and finally realized it was  buspar. Cut back dosage again. It made me tired all the time, couldn't concentrate, weird dreams, and loss of interest in things. Was not a good fit, I finally had to ask Dr for something else after a year it didn't work all together except for stopping obssesive thoughts. It also gave me brain zaps, memory loss, and space cadet syndr"


"Just want to comment on an early review from someone saying it didn't work. The person has a BMI lower than this product is intended for and doesn't sound to eat a lot of fat so this product is unlikely to work for them.
I have a high BMI and found that it helped my weight loss to be more consistent than dieting alone. I have changed my eating habits and haven't had any negative side effects. You need to put effort in and can't expect it to do all the work for you."


"I use to have panic attacks everyday for three years. I was scared to go to sleep. I've tried so many antidepressant and effexor was the only thing that worked with little to no side effects. My Dr. started me on 75mg, then increased it two wks later to 100mg. I've been on 100mg for almost a yr and I still haven't had a panic attack or anxiety."


"I am a 36 year old African American female graduate student who is currently applying to med school, while working full-time in a hospital pharmacy. I had been on Effexor 150mg daily for several years for depression. Last March (2011), I was diagnosed with ADHD by a LCSW with 30 years of experience in the field. Initially, I was on Concerta 36mg, but switched to the less expensive Adderall XR 20mg daily. I find that my concentration is much better, but I have lost 30 lbs. & have a decreased libido. After taking Adderall XR 20mg for only 3 months, I saw significant improvements in my MCAT score (8th MCAT attempt)! This year, I am will definitely obtain a competitive score & finally secure my spot in med school. THANKS ADDERALL XR!"


"It doesn't touch the pain levels I experience."


"I have been taking this medicine for 5 months and my MRI showed that the SEGAs that I have in my brain were smaller than 6 months previous."


"Went to the ER for high blood pressure and was having a bad headache as well. Was given regalin cocktail and afterwards I have had the worse anxiety ever. I wanted to rip the I've out of my arm and run out of there. I will never let them give me those meds again."


"I have been in severe pain for 10 years.  I had a 360 back surgery done on the 18th, the pain is so bad that I still have I can hardly stand it.  My surgeon sent me to a pain management doctor, and he put me on. This Nucynta ER 50mg twice a day, I do not sleep, I wake up in the wee hours of the morning just screaming in pain.  The pain management doctor said to give it time to work, ok have taken it for two days and no reliefs in sight. Have called and called, supposed to wait till Friday and call again, but can not take much more of this pain I am in."


"I suffer from health anxiety. Every new mole, lump, twinge... my mind would sink me into fear and a state of depression. It’s not always. Most days I can cope with the irrational thoughts and sort it out in my mind but then there are some days where it’s too much. I have found that taking half of my 0.5mg tab in the morning and then the other half in the evening has made me the most level headed and normal feeling I’ve felt in a long time. Doesn’t leave me groggy just has me normal! So awesome to just be chill. Finally! I’ve also noticed that if you are female hormones when they shift and change right before menstraution have always brought out my anxiety the worst! Good luck."


"Wonderful anti inflammatory. It never failed to depiver, cream and pills,

After 3 months of muscle pain, huge inflammation in.all my back, hamstring, quad, the pain and swelling reduces after after 5days,, and left me in 10days...nice ^^"


"Took 4 pills in one go. oops. dont take them all in one go. It ruins you. I chundered at work. In the first aid room sink. Hello again nandos sunset burger. I only saw you 2 hours ago.

This medication is tough. only if youre 'ard. I am not that."


"I really hate writing negative reviews but I am burning like hell. I used this at 1;20 am & was abruptly awakened by the burn at 4:30! Its now 5:20 & I'm up writing this & reading now reviews. Just go see your doctor for your YI if possible"


"I had unprotected sex on April 8th took the pill 12hrs later! Experienced a few cramps and extreme tiredness! Yesterday April 14th my period started and I am extremely happy that this pill worked! Also I heard it does not work on overweight people but I weigh 180 and it worked for me!"


"I was prescribed this due to a stress fracture in my foot that was greatly inflamed as I did not find out that it was fractured until 2 months after the fact. After the first dose of taking all 6 at once (6 day cycle of 21 pills) I slept great, but woke up with terrible dry mouth and throat, and had trouble breathing. Also feeling fatigue was an issue. Being an 18 yo male I would rather just cope with the pain, and simply wear the brace that they gave me to take the pressure off my foot, I feel that the adverse affects I got were not worth taking the inflammation off through time; although it did take care of the inflammation within two days."


"I have been on Copaxone now for about 10 yrs. I never tried any of the other medicines but can say that my MS has not reached a stage which has debilitated me so its reasonable to conclude this may be having some benefit.

Never had major side effects - recommended for RRMS."


"I started taking Geodon back in May or June of 2013. It worked well enough but made me indifferent. Yes, it did help me get out of an incredibly long and terrible state of depression, but I lost the ability to feel anything at all. My legs would become restless (most often at night) and I was always exhausted. I would even doze off or completely fall asleep at work.  I stayed on it for a few months then stopped taking it when I started a hypomanic phase."


"The fentanyl transdermal system, (Duragesic 75 mcg/hr), aids greatly in the relief of my lower back pain. The only down side to the fentanyl patch is that after two days or 48 hours of wearing the patch, it seems as though my pain resurfaces pretty badly upon the third day of wearing the system. I spoke with my primary physician about this issue and he suggested dispensing 15 patches each month so I could replace the system once every 48 hours or two days.  Since I've been changing the patch every two days, my pain has reduced greatly and I haven't had to use my "rescue" oxycodone 20 mg IR tablets as much.  THANK YOU DURAGESIC."


"I started this pill 4 months ago for my cramps and nothing has changed cramps are still the same and my period is still really heavy. I'm changing to trinessa crossing my fingers I'll have a better experience."


"Works well for my migraines. For me, I start feeling better in 20 minutes or so, and am completely back to normal within two hours."


"I have been on Phendimetrazine as well as a natural thyroid pill since July. I have lost a total of 35 lbs, but I have changed my diet dramatically. I do not eat any bad carbs. I have also completely cut out sugar, and only drink water.

I do believe that I could've lost this weight with my diet change alone, because I have already done so in the past.

Now on my 3rd month, I have noticed that I am very irritable. I have been having a lot of anxiety and depression. I find myself having difficulty breathing feeling as what I am assuming is a panic attack. I feel as though I cannot swallow at times. I also find myself overcome with extreme sadness and get mad and feel violent. Also feel as I am going a little insane.  BE CAUTIOUS."


"Just got my paragard put in this morning, couldn't sleep the night before and was so nervous the morning of. Honestly so easy and quick. My doctors gave me a pill to insert in the vagina the night before I guess to soften cervix. And took a Ativan and hydrocodone an hour before my insertion. Definitely helped, only experienced a few cramps and it was done within minutes. I seemed to have high blood pressure which is why they recommended this IUD because it contains no hormones. So far I love it. I'm 31 now and it lasts 10 years. Definitely a great choice"


"Botox has successfully the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on my face. I am happy with the results so far. "


"This pill works perfectly. I've tried OTC meds, sumatriptan shots, etc this medicine works. The only thing is if I take a full dose (500) mg I feel weird, slight tightening in my neck for the first hour. I don't even care, it's worth it to get rid of these headaches which I get 4 to 5 times per month. I'd drive 100 miles to get them if I had to. Just hope they don't find out this is slowly killing people someday."


"Have a rib contusion and a fractured rib. Nausea and slow thinking result from this drug combination. Pain is intense -- worst ever, no relief "


"I have just started this birth control, and have never taken anything else before. I started taking it the day after my Dr. prescribed it, instead of waiting until the recommended Sunday. I didn't think it would hurt anything; but I'm pretty sure I was wrong there. I was supposed to start my period right around the appointment date. I then started 4 days later and have yet to end. That was nearly 10 days ago. Also, I have never experienced cramps as badly as I did on this pill. I have never had children, but I swear I felt like I was having labor pains! The flow has been lighter than my normal period, just hasn't gone away yet. I am hoping it is just my bodies way of dealing with the hormones. Guess time will tell."


"This gel has worked for me, but of course,everyone is different. It takes a few applications for it to work."


"I went on a cruise, ate some bad food, ended up very sick, went to the doctor and got a shot. Within an hour, I was asleep in bed! Before that I had not slept all night. Absolutely a miracle drug!"


"I am on day 3 of Saxenda. I am doing the sample while waiting to find out if it is covered by insurance.

I've had no side effects and a mild reduction in hunger. Not sure if i will get better results once I up my dose. Was hoping for a miracle but so far not amazing...."


"Lexapro is awesome.  Before lexapro I would overthink about everything.  When I was in a relationship I would just think and think and think about if they were cheating, if I was too ugly, if they were thinking about leaving me blah blah blah.  I would just feel really stressed out and would cry a lot.  Now I feel fabulous.  The only negative is it makes me pee in the middle of the night- so annoying and I want to make out with strangers less often.  I haven't gained weight but haven't lost any either.   At first this medicine gave me wicked insomnia but now I take it first thing in the morning.  Good luck!  Remember being sad isn't necessary and most people who talk bad about being on antidepressants spend hours at the bar."


"Have been on Lessina for 3 months (no placebo week) to prevent recurrent ovarian cysts. My 6 cm cyst has shrunk to below 3cm. I feel great, fewer mood swings and no weight gain or other symptoms. I am 44, and my doctor doesn't want me to take it for very long, but I feel it has been helping."


"Ive been using Astelin almost daily for almost 10 years.
2 x each nostril, morning and night. No concern if I miss a day. It is the best! I've been taking antihistamines over 50 years. I will stick with Astelin as long as I can.
I usually irrigate my nostrils first by rinsing it with water from my palm in the shower.

Then Astelin goes straight into the clean nasal tissue and goes to work.

"


"I got my Mirena inserted in November 2016. Since then, I've been bleeding nearly every day, with heavier cycles of bleeding approximately every two weeks. I have no clue what's my actual period and what's not. My doctor said that if bleeding doesn't stop by 6 months it likely never will so I'm not sure where to go from here? Has anyone ever had an IUD in for 6+ months with constant bleeding and then it all of a sudden slowed or stopped? I really don't want to get it removed because it is nice not having to worry about other forms of birth control, I can't take the pill for other medical reasons so this was my next best option. Just extremely frustrated"


"I had 200mg ( a large dose) of Botox injected into my Bladder in August 2017. I got an infection within days of having the procedure. I went straight into retention. It has now been about 12 weeks since the procedure. I am still having to use catheter and I am never free from infection. I have spent nearly three weeks in hospital due to complications with UTI resulting in Kidney damage.
I am on a very rare Antibiotic that my own GP and local chemist had not heard off. I truly hope that this Antibiotic does the trick as I don't think that I am going to be able to cope with the outcome of the Botox injections for much longer. I wasn't given an Antibiotic after the procedure, the outcome may have been different if I had."


"I had the Paraguard IUD inserted in Nov of 2016,I've been on several different bc pills and also nuvaring. I wanted something without hormones and that I didn't have to think about. Before when I wasn't on bc  or on one of the others I mentioned I would have slight to no cramping and very light periods lasting less than 7 days. Since I've had the paraguard I experience extreme cramping and very heavy periods having to use 3-4 super plus tampons for the first 3 days and the periods last longer than before. I was told this would probably be temporary so I gave it time, it hasn't changed in almost a year. For me it isn't worth it. I'm considering getting mine removed and going back to nuvaring."


"It turned me into a walking zombie. I couldn't remember anything & I would be in the middle of a sentence and start saying crazy stuff. It wasn't for me."


"I had heavy bleeding for several years but within the last 3 years I ended up in the Hospital twice in which I had to get several Blood Transfusions. I have only  1 Fibroid the size of a dime.  I've had an DNC and  Ablation surgeries. I was prescribed Megestrol in January after leaving the Hospital. I was told to take 2 pills a day instead of 4. In February when menstrual came on it has not went off since, even though it is light. So I was told to take 4 a day, no change. I am getting tired of wearing pads everyday. The side effects are some mood swings, every night about 3 times I wake up drenched in sweat. I've gained over 20lbs. I really do not want a Hysterectomy, but it seems I have no choice."


"I have been on Nuvaring for over a year. Overall I love it. I have done 3 weeks in 1 week out and I have done 3 weeks in and immediately put in a new ring which both have worked without any problem. I also tried 4 weeks in 1 week out/immediately put a new one in because my gyno did tell me the ring actually has 28 days of hormones - but the lowered hormones caused me to bleed a lot.
I do have problems with slipping occasionally and taking it out before sex is a little embarrassing but I love it for how hard it is to mess up."


"Lorazepam is the only thing that touches my nausea after having chemotherapy and for break-through nausea from the chemo.  I was not aware that this was a medicine used for nausea until my Dr. prescribed them for me and told me to dissolve them under my tongue for the nausea.  It almost always helps immediately and doesn't make me too drowsy to function. I just use 1mg. dosage and only when needed for the nausea and that is improving so I am very thankful."


"I started taking Mononesse BC in April of 2015 by June of 2015 I was in the hospital with an arterial blood clot.  I had to have part of my right leg amputated. I just saw my hematologist yesterday and he checked my d-dimer and it was determined that my levels are actually lower than normal to get another blood clot. So he said 100% without a doubt the bc caused my blood clot. He also informed me that I am one of two patients that he is currently treating that was on this bc and had a blood clot. I would urge everyone to get off of this bc pill. It's not worth you life or your leg for that matter. My life is forever changed by a little pill."


"The nausea hit hard, even when I took it with food. But the worst part was I became extremely paranoid. I did not hear voices but it cost me big time. I had written my brother a check. I became so paranoid that I stopped payment on it. It cost me and my brother cause he ended up being overdrawn. And as far as helping my thinking... it did the opposite. I was so nauseous and paranoid... definitely not clearer thinking. Back on Prozac and doing fine."


"I started Contrave yesterday and the only side effect I am experiencing is constant gas. I have cut my calories and will start walking on the treadmill tonight so, we will see."


"No other medicine helps me get through my pain and through my day like oxycodone. I have been in 2 horrible car accidents and have tried many pain medications, and oxycodone is the only medication that completely takes away my lower back pain. It is a shame that so many people abuse this drug because it works miracles for chronic back pain."


"I have been on Qsymia for about 5 weeks and lost 15lbs. While I am very pleased with the loss, I have had a lot of cramping & extreme diarrhea for the past week. It started out always hitting me about 7PM & then increased to mornings and then during the night as well. Has anyone else had this problem. I am calling the Dr., but haven't seen anyone else with it and wonder if it could be caused by something else. I don't really want to give this up yet."


"This was my first time taking a laxative. I took two 5mg tablets at noon yesterday. After I took the tablets I decided to read the reviews and needless to say I was horrified by the talk of cramps, vomiting, and long-lasting effects. However, it worked wonderfully for me. About an hour after I took the tablets, I had a regular BM. Then after work around 6 I had a watery BM. I had two more watery BMs before I went to bed. I could feel my guts moving, but no cramping. The only "nausea" I felt was the same kind you get when you have diarrhea. I was very satisfied and will definitely take again."


"This was horrible!!! I experienced intense burning, itching, and pain immediately after applying it. In a previous infection I used Clotrimazole and it worked perfectly. This time I tried Miconazole believing that it was the same thing but I couldn't be more wrong. I'm never using this again."


"I have used this for a long time for my eczema and it has worked well."


"I'm 9 weeks pregnant and was told to use Monistat 7 by my gyno... she could've warned me! The itching and burning from the treatment is worse than the infection itself! Had I not Googled it and found this page I would've washed it out in the shower and called her back tomorrow. Thanks for all the reviews ladies, glad I'm not alone in this... cheers to feeling better tomorrow!"


"I had nexplanon inserted in 2013, and I have an appointment to get it removed and reinserted next week as its been 3 years! I originally got it because my period cramps were so bad that I would faint from the pain, and I had been on the pill but didn't like having to take it everyday. After reading all the bad reviews, I thought I would contribute. When I first had it inserted, I had light spotting for about three weeks. I don't get my period or any spotting now-the last time I got my period was March 2014. Gaining weight was a huge concern for me when debating whether I should get it or not, but I haven't had that much weight gain-I contribute it more to my college diet but I also work out a lot. Overall, I love it and recommend it!"


"Works really well but made me very tired all the time.  At least I could sleep well though."


"I was on Fluorouracil two times a day for two weeks. It wasn't too bad for the first 10 days then it continued to burn more with every application.

The most painful part of the Fluorouracil treatment was after I completed the applications. A nurse recommended that I mix %u2153 cup of white vinegar with 6 cups of water and place the mixture in the refrigerator until chilled. Then, use a very soft wash cloth and the vinegar solution to cleanse my face.  She also said to take the damp wash cloth and place it over my face for 15 minutes 4 times daily.

Contrary to what I thought, the vinegar solution did not burn, it soothed incredibly."


"This drug isn't for everyone. The side effects are completely crazy. I have been on it for almost 12 months now. It has provided relief from migraines by almost 95% of the time.  This has been a big deal for me. Side effects I've experienced: hands and feet tingle periodically (some days are worse than others), hair loss started 3 months after taking it but began to cease 6 months later, definite brain fog (some days I feel like I'm losing my mind), grogginess (I can only take my dose at night otherwise I'm a zombie during the day), changes in vision, loss of appetite, fatigue, irritability.  At first I convinced myself the side effects were worth tolerating compared to having a migraine. But as time goes on, I'm beginning to think im wrong"


"This pretty much saved my life. I've been on EVERYTHING (or so it seems) for major depressive disorder and when I was about 32 something wasn't adding up and I was diagnosed BP2. I tried Lamictal and I couldn't handle the headaches. The other BP medications all seem to cause weight gain so I'd stop taking them. I got a new doctor who said if I tried lithium she would give me a little Topiramate to help offset the hunger the lithium caused. Well, the topiramate seemed to help the BP2. So I've slowly worked up to 150/day topiramate along with wellbutrin and Lexapro. It's a GODSEND.

Side effects: when titrating up at any point, tingly fingers or feet for a week but then goes away. Take at night because can make you sleepy. Hope FDA approves!"


"I have had chronic lower back pain after falling through a deck, I lived with the pain as long as I could.  I finally found a Dr. that would help me,  she prescribed the Butrans patch.  What a change it made.  I started with the 20mcg but found it to be too strong, I didn't like feeling tired all the time, she lowered the dose to 15mcg with Norco 7.5 for breakthrough pain.  I really like the patch as it has worked wonders for me, I rarely need the Norco.  All I can say is thank you to my Dr. for prescribing these.  take as directed and avoid other medication unless approved by your Dr."


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"This is a big step up from golytely, the taste is better and even better yet only 2 small bottles not 1 gal."


"I've been on 10mg Brintellix for a week now. The first day I took it within 30 minutes I was sick. Which I could afford to lose a few pounds so I guess I won't complain about that. I've been extremely tired since taking this medicine. However my mood does seem brighter while I'm awake. I also take Trileptol, Tramadol, Norco, gabapentin, and two inhalers. I'm 33 and have some health issues and so far the medicine seems to be helping. I just hope it stays this way. Good luck to everyone."


"works great"


"I was getting persistent breakouts (atopic dermatitis)  on my face especially after shaving.  I first began using prescription strength hydrocortisone cream and other steroid creams,  but after a while they lost their effectiveness and began making my skin worse.  And it caused thinning of my skin.   I eventually started using Elidel  and my skin significantly improved right away.   Elidel caused no adverse reactions.  I barely need to use Elidel anymore.   Elidel was initially not covered by my insurance.   However, my dermatologist was able to obtain prior authorization by submitting records  showing that steroid creams did not work."


"Believe or not, I lost 15 POUNDS in one week, thats incredible, when I start my weight was 185, now one week and one day my weight is 170, I combine the pill with a littl work out and healthy food."


"I didn't get pregnant, but my vagina produced a ton of creamy white discharge ever and led to a yeast overgrowth in my gut, upsetting my body's overall pH. It made me anxious and I had trouble sleeping.  Periods were incredibly light, like spotting, but with unbearable cramps. Not a fan of this BC."


"Perfect. Worked extremely fast. I was backed up for about 6 days before using fleet. I was scared to use it at first, but the lube on the tip made the experience as painless as it could be. I had relief in 5 minutes."


"I started with 75 mg of Pregabalin which was raised to 100 mg at bedtime. While it helped me in reducing neck pain and I had substantial reduction in anxiety, it started giving me huge side effects. I started having throat pain, sinusitis, vivid dream early morning and some feeling of dizziness. I also added 5 kg of weight in 2 months. I am now tapering it off gradually. While I would say it worked for my main symptoms, unfortunately it gave me too much side effects."


"Got on Orsythia because of PMDD. Used to be suicidal right before my period. After taking the pill I'm MUCH more balanced.

Only criticism is it makes my breasts extra sore during PMS. And the first couple months I had spotting. But, overall it's great. And it's definitely done its job to prevent pregnancy!"


"I smoked for 40 yrs, been on Champix for 12 days - takes away pangs and has reduced my intake by half (was 20 a day).  Main problem now is the habit side of smoking which is equally addictive - so routine will have to be changed. Target date for giving up is in 4 days time and scared that  I will fail this deadline."


"I started this medication because I have struggled with depression, anxiety, and panic attacks.  I have been put on random depression meds since I was 14 years old and am now 24.  I've tried lexapro, welbutrin, and a bunch of other stuff.  I never really saw improvement as a teenager on these drugs, but it could have been my hormones at the time.  I tried prosac at 23 years old and it seemed to make a real difference for me.  I think I started to feel the difference within the first week, but that might have been a placebo affect.  After at least 2-3 weeks is when I think it really started to work and I could feel a difference.  My anxiety levels started to drop pretty drastically and I was no longer afraid of things like the dark."


"I have been on Tecfidera since Sept 2014 and it has made a big difference to me. Firstly, no injections, which I hated and it has helped control my  symptoms better, as well as having the positive benefit of sorting out my eczema. Side effects - intermittent flushing and increased need to use the toilet/washroom. I am fortunate and very grateful that the drug is prescribed for me by NHS Scotland."


"This has to be the absolute worst medicine in the world! As if the yeast infection itself isn't bad enough this damn cream does absolutely nothing but contribute to the agonizing pain! I feel sorry for the fianc"


"Ampyra is a MIRACLE for me.  I have been on one pill a day for exactly one month.  I have had MS symptoms since 2005 but was not diagnosed and put on Copaxone until last year. I have experienced two years of extremely heavy legs while just standing for more than 15 minutes, expecially my left leg. My life had changed dramatically. Having to use a rollator when I left the house. My neuro finally prescribed Ampyra after asking for the last two years.  After two weeks, I noticed that my stamina was much better.  At one month, I could not believe it!  No more heavy legs at all. I could stand and do housework for more than an hour.  No side effects.  I take one pill about 10 a.m.  It runs $40 for a 30 day supply.  Wonderful pill so far"


"I have been on various types of oral contraceptives for years and just 1 month ago switched to Loestrin 24.  I have had no noticeable side effects differing from other BC pills.  HOWEVER, I did not have a period this month!!!  After being SIX days late and worrying that I was pregnant, and all that comes along with such a huge life-change, I took a pregnancy test. Negative. I CAN NOT worry every month whether I am pregnant because I may or may not have a period with Loestrin 24 Fe."


"When I first started topamax I couldn't notice the side effects except for the tingling in my hands, feet and face. I thought it would go away with time but here I am 2 years later and it is still happening. This medication also prevented my migraines at first, then I had to be put in the hospital for 5 days to get treatment about 6 months ago, and now they are back again. If you miss even one dose you get a whole new set of side effects as if you started the medicine that day! Before I took this medicine my hair was so thick, and I never really noticed the hair loss side effect until now because my hair is falling out in chunks. Topamax also caused me to get kidney stones and be hospitalized for a month. The only good thing is I lost 50lbs"


"Works great for the withdrawal from dilaudid and oxycontin, which I have been on for at least 2 years. The sweats were AWFUL part of the withdrawal and this patch has taken all that away. Just a little dizzy and drowsy, hoping that will pass. It's only been 2 weeks."


"Second day on Provigil. I feel great! I took my first pill yesterday at around noon and I did not have trouble sleeping. I went to sleep a little later than usual because I could though! I feel more alert but I don't know if I want to continue to take it everyday, that's why I gave it a 9 out of 10.  I woke up this morning pretty fatigued and I almost didn't want to take it because I wanted to rest, obviously since I was fatigued. But once I took it, I felt great again! If you have MS and insurance wont cover it because it is not approved for use for MS patients, have your neuro file a claim to why it would help you! Don't let insurance stand in the way. Everyone who has chronic fatigue due to MS should try this pill."


"I went to the doctor to see what type of medication I could get on to clear up my acne (mostly around my mouth and little dots on my forehead). My doctor recommended using Epiduo and it has changed my life both. My zits were painful and I felt like I couldn't talk to anyone because all they would see is my acne. The first week, my skin took some getting used to. It was very dry in the places where I applied it and would crack since it was around my mouth. It also stung and was irrating for the first 4 days. After that, I couldn't feel anything and I could see a MAJOR difference in my skin. I'm so happy I tried this and recommend it for anyone who is struggling like I was."


"After decades on pain meds, they are working less and less. In addition to fibromylgia I have bulging and herniated discs, neuropathy, and (controlled) epilepsy.  I have learned to live with constant pain.  My Doc suggested Gralise (gabapentin) and said that he felt confident I would see good results.  I am AMAZED.   I saw immediate improvement in my ability to walk and move around.  I am experiencing considerably less pain.  I am concerned because my insurance will not cover the brand (which is time released) that I am taking and it is expensive, but I remain optimistic and I will try the 3 times a day dosages.  I have not felt this good in many years."


"Carafate Suspension was prescribed by my doctor because of stomach problems caused by taking pain killers and anti-inflamatory drugs for knee injury. Already taking Omeprozole but it was not doing the trick. The carafate worked great. Realy calmed down the acid reflux."


"Everytime winter comes around I start to break out really bad. Everybody used to tell me where does this acne come from since I don't get it all year but the winter. My teacher recommended it for me since her daughter used it. I immediately went to the dermatologist and told him I need to take doxycycline. I started taking it and haven't broke out since! This is great!"


"I started taking Wellbutrin XL 150mg once a day for the first two weeks, back in November. At first I noticed a slight change in my mood. the dr. bumped me up to 300mg once a day. I have gotten a lot better now, not depressed, angry, sad all the time. Also before I started taking this I was having awful anxiety attacks to the point where I`d black out and wake up vomiting, I was losing a ton of weight because I was so depressed I had no appetite. Although I haven`t experienced weight gain with this medication I still don`t have much of an appetite but I have gone back to my normal weight. Drinking while taking this makes the alcohol affect you a lot quicker than usual, also causes me to black out 98% of the time."


"Started on Gleevec in 2005, I was having hard time with side effects. Sometime early 2007 I heard they were working with Tasigna, It was under a number at that point. I asked my Doctor if I could get on the study. After some testing and paperwork, I finally got on it. Great, I had been told prior that I would never reach molecular remission. After several months on Tasigna, I received a phone call at my house late one evening. My Doctor was surprised, and happy to tell me, there were no signs of my leukemia and I was in a molecular remission. At That time they still had me on 800 mg a day. I had the typical side effects with light rash, some hair loss and some bone pain. Several years later I was reduced to 600 mg and am on that now."


"I have extremely dry eyes due to Sarcordosis. Have used GenTeal gel for many years but I have not been able to find it for at least a year. I am now trying GenTeal night-time ointment at night. I prefer the gel. The GenTeal gel has a pointed tip and is so great for day and night. I can use just a small amount during the day and it doesn't blur my vision.
I have tried so many eye drops but nothing compares to the gel."


"I've been taking paroxetine for a week. I haven't felt like thus in years! I feel like myself again! The first few days I experienced nausea and dizzy spells and dry mouth. But now the only side effect is dry mouth. This is a Miracle drug!"


"Had unprotected sex the day after my period ended. Took the pill within 35 hours after sex. Experienced headaches and tender breasts for the next week or more. Then nothing really. The week of my next period there was a very light flow of a dark red, clumpy discharge. I thought it was spotting and it lasted about 2.5 days. Then nothing for a day. Then I had the worst headache ever and stayed in bed for hours. Later realized this was my period and it had been right on time. No pregnancy."


"I started taking Saphris 10 mg at bedtime 2 months ago and I have never taken a medicine that is so powerful but without the horrific side effects of it.  My mother and I take care of 6 children and so I have a bunch of different personalities that are around me each and every day. When I started taking this medicine it took a great deal of heaviness I was carrying around with me off and that is exactly what I needed. The only side effect it gave me was the bitterness as it dissolves under your tongue, but that is well worth it for me.  I am on Depakote as well, I started Saphris about a month ago. I am getting off of Depakote and staying on Saphris - it is a miracle."


"Just a few days and I see the improvements. I too have been wearing heavy makeup and can't wait to stop. You can get the prescription filled at Costco just over $100 with membership. I initially went in to the dermatologist thinking I would end up paying for expensive laser treatment and was relieved to only have to spend $100. This prescription works a whole lot better than hydroquinone on its own."


"I experience shortness of breath and headache."


"I was put on it when I was 16 because I have ADHD and Aspergers and have never slept. Used to take clonidine for sleep but it stopped working. It took almost 9 months for my mom to figure out what was going on. I became angry depressed and not a very nice person. I also started picking at my skin to the point that I started my arms back and shoulders and chest. We did slow withdrawals off of it it took a while. My mom and I decided it would be better or not for me to sleep then to have the reaction that I did to have that. Have to say I'm still with drawing even though doing it the right way. I was on 100 and did a very slow taper for almost six weeks. I'm starting to slowly feel like myself again."


"I had been suffering from severe back pain for a couple of years due to spinal stenosis and get flare ups a couple times a year. After numerous failed physical therapy treatments I was finally given a Toradol shot. Within 30 minutes my pain was relieved. Love this shot! Can't believe I was not offered this medication 3 years ago. The only side effects I had was minor stomach discomfort."


"I went off it for my 1st child. I had only been on it 3 months and it was easy, no withdrawal symptoms. I went back to using heroin after I had my daughter. I since have been clean for 3 years now. I have been on Suboxone the whole time. It is not easy to go completely off it this time. I got pregnant with my son about 18 months ago. I recommend Suboxone! He was over 8lbs and super healthy! He didn't go through any withdrawal symptoms. He had the yawns a little, that's it. On Methadone it's proven that babies go through withdrawl! My baby is smart and healthy! My doctors just monitored me closer than usual. More ultrasounds, and they talked back and forth. I was on about 4mg while pregnant. A high dose might be bad, lower is better!"


"So far it had been a little over a month and a half on 5 mg, for my depression and constant ups and downs. I have bi polar, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Of all the meds this has helped tremendously, with only nausea as a side effect. I eat toast and peanut butter and it seems to help. I feel like myself again, with better concentration, more energy, and I'm smiling again. This honestly saved my life with the help of other meds that I am on!"


"I have been on Descovy + Tivicay for 2 weeks and have almost zero side effects, besides a little  diarrhea for the first three days. I'm looking forward to my results in a week."


"As someone that HATES crowds & dealing with people in general, Zoloft seems to be helping. I have also tried Lexapro, which caused horrible weight gain & total numbness when it came to feelings. Zoloft has been doing the opposite...my appetite is pretty much non-existent. So far, I wouldn't say I'm having any major side effects & im overall happy with everything."


"Recently diagnosed with Polycythemia Vera (a blood cancer), one of the side effects was severe itching for about half an hour after contact with water (morning shower).   Started taking a low dose of Peroxetine and the itching reduced considerably after about a week of use.

I have now used the medication for a few months and have noticed the additional side effect of having difficulty "completing" when having sex."


"I switched to safyral two months ago after losing my insurance and needing free samples to carry me until my new job provided me with coverage. I have been on ocella and Yasmin, depending on which was free at the time of refill, since I was 15 (now 26) and have had a great experience. My periods were always regular, minimal breakthrough bleeding (only occurring when I missed a pill or 2), no cramps, 3-4 day periods with very light bleeding. Since switching to safryl I experience consistent breakthrough bleeding. Three to four days before I expect my period I get nauseous, dizzy/faint, and get HORRIBLE cramps. I'm really looking forward to going back to ocella. This is not similar to ocella and Yasmin as I was told previously."


"My doctor put me on this after nothing else worked. The only side effect I'm having is I feel like I'm being electrocuted in my pre-sleep stage. It is a very weird and jolting feeling bright light and the sound of someone scratching a record to a stop.  "


"I received this medication on multiple occasions. Typically the situation involved me being awake for a small surgical procedure. Though this became a typical procedure that I grew used to and at times would receive with only local anesthetics, the times I had dilaudid were far better. It reduced my anxiety for the situation and didn't cause me to feel too out of it after the procedure was done (maybe about 20 minutes?)."


"The good:

- Improved motivation
- More stable moods, fewer deep lows
- Improved self-confidence
- Decreased anxiety

The bad:

- (during the first few weeks) Insomnia
- (during the first few weeks) Drowsiness
- (transient) Vivid bad dreams
- Difficulty reaching orgasm
- Forgetfulness
- Emotional blunting"


"Recently my doctor changed my breakthrough pain medication to Oxycodone 20mg from OxyContin 20mg. Immediately I noticed a huge difference, and for the first time in four years felt that my pain controlled. Now I'm taking OxyContin 80mg twice daily with Oxycodone 20mg every four hours prn.  Overall oxycodone provides the quickest and most effective pain control above all oral narcotics I've taken. However I do caution long-term users of increases in tolerance, monitoring if ever more medication is needed to achieve the same effect. I first noticed an increase in my tolerance two weeks of taking 4-6 tabs daily. I gradually increased my dose until I was needing double my starting dose. Within one month my tolerance increased by two-fold."


"Have been prescribed high dose of mirtazapine - 150 mg at night for reactive unipolar depression and GAD (Generalised Anxiety Disorder). The medication has helped me cope with a busy academic life."


"I took Mirapex for a couple of months with my severe restless leg syndrome. It seemed to help but I would wake up in the middle of the night and in the morning before work and have severe nausea and vomiting. I am now taking Requip and it has been doing the same thing. "


"I've been on this pill for almost two years (23 months). It was originally prescribed to me to clear up my acne and I love it! I have shorter periods and so far it's been good with pregnancy prevention. My only problem is that I've missed two periods (one April 2016 and one November 2016) and I have had some scares but hey, not pregnant! Never had any weird side effects."


"I've been on this medication for a little more than three months. I feel that my emotions and feelings have improved so much. I feel real happy now."


"I'm a 29 year old woman starting weight 186. I started contrave almost 4 weeks ago, like lots of people I have suffered from nausea but nothing I can't handle just by taking Bonine and Aleve. So far I've lost 10 pounds, the weight literally just melted off my stomach which I love!! I do notice while working I produce a lot more sweat than I ever have before but that is nothing to me when I'm losing weight this quickly. My cravings are gone, I've stopped smoking almost completely and drinking alcohol or pop. I can feel myself getting healthier all the time! If you can push through the dude side effects I think it's worth it!! I'll update again in a month!"


"I had the Implanon put in three months ago. It was okay at first with a normal seven day period. Then skipped period the next month and now I'm on a period going on four weeks. I have never been so emotional. I also have severe back pains and am breaking out."


"Depo shot def stops you from getting pregnant but it messes up everything else... sex drive mood swings and while on the shot my period wasn't bad but once i stopped it i didn't get my period for 4 months then out the blue started bleeding like crazy.. now my period comes whenever.. i can't even tame it.... i won't bleed for 5 days then out the blue start spotting or bleeding esp after sex which is causing issues with me and my partner because he gets disgusted with the blood, as he should!! So now my partner is afraid to have sex with me because he doest know if m period will come down in the middle of it.. horrible experience,"


"I am completely satisfied with this medication. Celexa has improved my life drastically. Not only did it help with my depression, it also helped with my anxiety and facial flushing which led me to live a normal life again. If you suffer from depression or anxiety, go to the doctor ASAP! You will not regret getting the help you need."


"After being on Janumet 50/1000 twice daily my sugar never seemed to drop at all, running very high 200 , A1c got over 12%, my GP added glimepride 4mg twice daily with meals and wow, what a difference. I've never had to worry about low blood sugar until now. My A1c after 2 months is now 7%, sugar runs around 90 in the mornings now. I couldn't be happier with this medication. Some have commented on eating right after you take this and I agree. It will drop your sugar fast, be careful. I also keep glucose tabs in my car now just in case."


"Before I finished the sample pack, I was calling my Doctor for a prescription. As others I have tried any and all medications. In August the pain was so intense I was unable to bend over, let alone last past 5:00 before having to lay down. There are side effects to all medications, it's all about your attitude, I'm always hopeful when the Doctor gives me something new. Savella is the answer to my prayers, stick it out you will be happy with the results."


"I started citalopram about a month ago and on the 6th day I felt amazing! Then about a week ago I started to decline and the horrors and anxiety and depression started to set back in :( I will say that this medicine has overall helped me in a big way, even though I am relapsing it still has a positive effect. The side effects I experienced are teeth clenching and insomnia but lack of sleep lasted for only a few days. My question to everyone is, has citalopram worked for you then stopped and then started working really well again?"


"I've suffered with Atrial Fibrillation off and on since 2004. Today was the first time I have tired Flecainide. It took 1 1/2 hours to work. I didn't have any side effects other then feeling a little tired. I seem to get atrial fibrillation every other year when I drink or eat something really cold. This episode was brought on by a cold glass of milk. I was in A Fib for 8 days, next time I'll take a Flecainide. I am not a pill taker and I refuse to take these on a day to day. It will only be as needed."


"I went to the ER because I was extremely dehydrated due to vomiting in my pregnancy, I was given Reglan thru an IV. Within minutes I felt jittery and despite how sick I was I couldn't sit down. They then gave me Benadryl thru my IV which knocked me out. The ER doc released me with a script for reglan and told me I wouldn't have the "jittery" side effects with the pill like I did thru the IV. I took reglan 4 times a day as prescribed for 5 days. In those 5 days I have never in my life felt so miserable, I was sweating, had a fever, became jaundice, hallucinated, QUIT MY JOB. never felt so sick in all my life. Today is day one without Reglan and it is night and day difference in how I feel off the medicine. I don't recommend this drug!"


"My chest infection has got worse after 7 days on Augmentin. I am usually given amoxicillin. So Amoxicillin has kind lost its effectiveness. Augmentin contains Amocilillin as well. I assume this is why it is not working for me. Over here, there's no test or sharing medical history. I think GP's choice of antibiotics is bit ramdon. But if amoxicillin is not working anymore, I would not use Augmentin."


"I took Quasense as prescribed for less than 2 months.  I had a life threatening Pulmonary Embolism.  Almost all tests are complete and all specialists say it is caused by the birth control.  Please be careful if you are taking hormonal birth control, please ask your Doctor to do a clot risk assessment on you and KNOW THE SYMPTOMS of DVT/PE.  I went to the ER with chest pain, cough and shortness of breath.  I was told if I had not gone I would be dead.  Just be careful.  Estrogen can increase your risk of blood clots.  Know the risks, know the symptoms."


"I was diagnosed with PCOS which caused abnormal periods to the point where I wasn't having them for years. When I was diagnosed at 14 with it they immediately put me on Tri-Previfem. For the first 6 months everything was going great. Then the mood swings started, I suffered from depression before and then this just made it worst. I couldn't stop crying and never wanted to get oh of bed. Last week I stopped taking this and switched to Junel FE. For birth control and acne and period regulator I'd give this a 10/10 but wouldn't consider being on it for two years or long like I was because it can greatly mess with your emotions."


"I have been on Rebif 44mg for 3 years now ever since I was diagnosed.  I do my The injections at bed time with a little bit of ibuprofen.  I have no family history of MS in my family.   When I was diagnosed I was in denial, disbelief and very angry.  Why me?!!   I have so much left I want to do...  The side effects I experienced are fever, chills, flu like, and next day dizziness were severe for the first year but no more attacks.  Now I experience general fatigue the day after the shot until about noon.   I wake up feeling very hot sometimes.  Good news is since being on rebif only one new lesion that was stopped with steroids.  And come to terms with why me to what am I suppose to learn from this. You can live with this and live well."


"I'm 20 years old and have been taking Alesse for 2 years now. It has done wonders for my period, no cramps or bloating, period is so much lighter and manageable. I haven't had any acne problems or weight gain. My moods have been affected but I believe its only around the time I get my period. As for the tenderness of breasts, I only feel it if something accidentally hits them, other than that the pain isn't noticeable or disturbing. Another plus is the pill is extremely small and easy to swallow, I hate taking pills. I definitely recommend this pill."


"I've been on different pills for the past 7 years due to extreme period cramps and acne as well but I've been on this Ortho TriCyclen for 2 years and I just want to say that Birth control does NOT affect your weight. It affects your appetite hence the fact we gain weight. The reason I know is because Its easy for me to gain and lose while on the pill if I eat a lot I gain instantly. If I exercise and eat healthy same thing! I lose a lot faster on this pill. This pill makes it easy for me to maintain my weight due to the lifestyle I live! My acne has cleared up dramatically and my cramps are gone and my period lasts between 4-5 days. I always use condoms but gave it an 8 due to loss in sex drive but other than that, it's great pill!"


"Please calm down. I was in your shoes. Let the pill work. Freaking out will only delay your period more. I had unprotexted sex on the 3rd of September, took the pill 40min after and am 18 so pregnancy was not an option. I got my period on the 14th of september. I spent 10 days non stop searching the internet for answers. It only worsened my freaking out. The only thing that actually helps is being positive you will get your period. Tough experience to go through but you will be so relived when you get your period finally. I took my way pill and it worked."


"I have mixed incontinence. I saw results within a few days. It was awesome! A great relief! BUT my mouth was sooo dry. My sinus felt thick and not draining well. And worst of all, I had constant constipation. I used the drug for 5 weeks, hoping side effects would subside.  They didn't. I decided to stop taking it, due the discomfort and concerns of the extreme dryness. Since its an extended release med, the effects lasted a few more weeks after I stopped! Too bad the side effects outweighed the benefit for me."


"Allegra does not help my hay fever . I still have a running nose, itchy throat, and itchy eyes."


"I had the copper IUD inserted today because I wanted a long term contraceptive without hormones as i am breastfeeding.

I chose a clinic that has an ultrasound to check before and after the insertion.

It was about five minutes for the entire procedure and it was not more painful than a pap smear with very similar sensations.

I did have bleeding afterwards but no cramps so far. The bleeding is nowhere near the amount you would get after a vaginal delivery.

It helps to take two advils an hour before. Plus it definitely helped to have had 4 natural vaginal births too!

Please do not let the fear of insertion prevent you from trying it. The alternative of labor or abortion is much worse than a few minutes of discomfort."


"Worked for 5 yrs with steadily increasing doses. At 120 mg things started to turn and depression  worsened. It took over 2 months to come off it, with terrible  side effect  including  migraines."


"Please everyone make sure you are emailing Pfizer. They need to be making increments of 5mg so that people can wean themselves off easier. They are aware of the withdrawal from Effexor yet have not made smaller increments so people have to figure out ways to do it themselves.  I was on 150mg for 4 years. I attempted to go off by decreasing by 37.5mg every 2 weeks. I was suicidal, exhausted, dizzy, and felt like my brain was being electrocuted.  Within 2 days of taking my previous dose the symptoms went away.  My next attempt to get off was much slower. I decreased by 5mg every month.  I had to take my pills out of the capsule, shave a little off the pill and put it back in the capsule.  To get any kind of accuracy you have to buy a scale."


"I've been using this for about a week but so far my skin seems to be peeling off and burning. However, it is calming down my acne and hopefully these side effects will go the more I use it. I am entitled to it free because I live in the UK."


"Zyrtec worked well to control my seasonal allergies as well as allergies to dust, cats, etc. It seemed to work faster than Claritin. However, when I stopped taking Zyrtec, I developed severe itchiness all over my body. It took a couple weeks to get through the worst of it, but I am still itching after a month. It seems that my skin has become hyper-sensitive to detergents, soaps, contact with clothing, etc. It seems that certain other people are experiencing this as well."


"I didn't have the best experience with Acanya. It really dried out my skin for the first few times using it and I just felt like it made my skin look worse than my acne. My acne started clearing up for a couple of days and then totally took a turn for the worst. I stayed on it for a couple of months but It just made my skin more red and had more pimples than ever. Also because it was such a thick white paste it would peel under my makeup. I know things work different for everyone, I was just really excited when My dermatologist prescribed me Acanya because it had good reviews. It just didn't work for me and it's sad to say that the few days after I went off of it my acne went back to normal and I'm still stuck with acne and acne scars."


"I started taking Chantix, I was okay. Then; I had the most horrific nightmare about my two twin grandchildren! I also had outrages that still to this day almost ended my marriage! I was not myself. I had to quit taking it."


"Loestrin Fe did a lot better than the 'Lo Loestrin Fe'. I only got this prescription because my insurance covers it and it's similar to what I was taking before-just less hormones. (They apparently discontinued the birth control I used to take).  Since I've been on this one, I've been a little moodier, more acne, breast tenderness and cramping without periods.  I've lost weight and my cup/bra size actually got smaller.  Honestly, it's starting to freak me out a bit because I haven't been this tender with a birth control, only while pregnant with my two children.  I take it as it's prescribed-same time, every day, never skipping a dose.  Hitting my 3rd month on it, no periods or spotting at all."


"I started taking this in April 2012. I weighed 192.5. It is now October 2012 and I am down to 143!! I take it before breakfast and exercise 2-3 times a week sometimes more, depending on how I feel. The first day is the only time I got jittery at all. No other problems except for dry mouth. I keep a low carb diet with the occasional cheat. But I feel great and never thought I would be down this much weight this soon."


"The first month I started taking this my period was horrible. It lasted for almost 2 weeks. My periods have lightened up quite a bit since I started taking it but I'm still spotting and I've only tried skipping my period once, which it didn't work. On the brighter side this pill has helped clear up my acne quite a bit. I don't eat much anymore either and in return I've lost quite a bit of weight. All in all its not a bad pill besides my period and spotting problem. It does what it's supposed to which is keep me from becoming pregnant which is great."


"On Sutent 5 months tumer has has halved in size, side effects are unpleasent but bearable. Hair thined out a bit for the first 3 months."


"Took the 4 tablets in one go yesterday, and literally had zero side effects what so ever. If people are reading this scared to take this medicine, you've got to realise people are more inclined to write reviews about a negative experience with a product than a positive one.

I was abit anxious about taking it but genuinely there's less side effects than the reviews on this website reflect. I would advise to eat a lot before and after taking this medication to help the absorption process. That's probably why a lot of people have had abdominal pain."


"I have Open Angle Glaucoma in both eyes.  Alphagan P brought my pressure down in a short length of time.   The pressure has stayed at accceptable levels for the past twelve years.
I have not had any side affects."


"I loved this birth control when I was on it! I also started out on microgestin and when the pharmacys had stopped carrying it, I was switched to the junel. I was luckily enough to have my period for about 2.5 days per month, like clockwork. It cleared up my acne and I felt good. However, I came off of it in January of this year as my hubby and I are thinking about having children soon and I feel like a 15 year old again. My skin is insanely greasy, I'm breaking out like crazy, and to top it off, I've gained 15lbs because my appetite has been out of control! I guess I didn't realize how much junel had been suppressing my appetite and even my teenage acne... And no, I'm not pregnant so the weight gain cannot be contributed to that."


"My doctor prescribed this to me for the depressive episodes (as part of my bipolar dx).
At 0.5mg, that was sufficient to stop crying, but I was exhausted, mentally. Perhaps numb. Not sure if it was from the depression/crying or the medicine.
At 1mg, it knocks me out.
I now use it mainly for insomnia, and no more than once a week.
Any more than 0.5mg at 11pm and I will not get up on time for work.
Because this is my own use, I confided in a friend (who had a stroke) and he confessed he had been doing the same thing until his MD stopped him.
I believe insomnia may be a good use for this medicine IF USED CORRECTLY. I know it may have addictive potential. Monitor yourself."


"I've been almost 3 years taking 30mg. Initially, it was sporadical. Now I just need it daily to function properly. Until one year ago I took Lexapro 10 mg   Xanax 1 or 2 mg/day. Now I had to increase Xanax to 4mg per day and sometimes Rohypnol to try to get some sleep. I feel really depressed and it's getting worse, also easily angry, that didn't occur when I took Lexapro but my psychiatrist didn't think it was necessary to take it any longer. I have to make major efforts to overcome suicidal thoughts. Have awful tremors and recently a unusual chest pain."


"Suffer back pain and sciatica from pinched nerve caused by herniated lumbar discs. Prescribed Soma by new orthopedic doctor for pain. Does not work any better for my pain than ibuprofen and comes with a multitude of side effects. I am discontinuing use after one week due to headache, dizziness, nausea and insomnia. I don't know if my emotional reaction is due to the drug or the 3 months of chronic pain and recent lack of sleep, but it is making me irritable and angry."


"I am on my second week of Lo Loestrin and have had break through bleeding for about 2 days now. I haven't experienced any mood swings, acne or weight gain, however it is early on and I will be watching out for that. I have been on the pill for almost 10 years, and this is the first time I have ever had breakthrough bleeding. I will try it for another month and see what happens!"


"I had this implanted in Oct of 2013 after having my daughter in September of 2013 it's now been 2 years now being Oct 2015. At first I bleed like super crazy non stop for almost 4 months straight heavy .. I was calling my ob almost every month and they said to give it time and that's what I did.   After time it slowly started getting better I think it took about a year for my body to adjust to it now I hardly have a period at all maybe one every other month and at the most it's either super lite or just spotting.  It was a total pain bleeding all the time and my hair does seem to fall out more and I've gained weight something I didn't wanna do ..everyone's body is different you just gotta give it time .. If you don't want another baby this is the best route.."


"This prep was very difficult for me to get down. After getting the first bottle mixed and finished, I proceeded to throw up the entire mix.....now I didn't know what to do. So I waited about an hour and decided to mix the second bottle and try again. I used an orange wedge to suck on between sips. I got about 2/3 of it down and managed to keep it down . Amazingly, it cleaned me out and my colonoscopy was able to be done. "


"I started Belviq mid-May 2015 at about 234 lbs, and in the first month lost 7 pounds (eating 1500-2000 calories per day depending on the day). In the second month I lost 4 (again eating a similar diet). In the last month I have lost another 4 (same thing). Although this is good progress, I'm not sure it is worth the cost to continue. In the beginning there was some feeling of fullness more quickly when eating but that has diminished over time. I'm considering going off of it soon because I'd like to get pregnant. Also, at the 3-month mark, I'm right at the 5% recommended loss. Overall I don't feel like the drug is good or bad; I think it really depends on the individual."


"I've been taking Stribild since August of 2013 when I made the choice to start HIV treatment because I have a negative partner and my T-cells had fallen below 900. I've also wanted to remain proactive about my care and always want to remain well. Stribild was the best choice for me, it did not interfere in any way with my daily outreaches or HIV peer support that I do, nor did it slow me down from my passion for photography and art. There are no side effects that I can speak to and right away my T-cells climbed back to well over 1100 and my viral load was undetectable in just three weeks."


"I had Mirena inserted in April of 2015. The insertion was painful for me, as I have not ever been pregnant and given birth. I had light spotting for two weeks after insertion and then when I thought my body was adjusting, I would spot throughout the following months. It wasn't until month 6 that the spotting stopped. It was also in month 6 that I discovered one mass in each of my breasts, one the size of a walnut and the other the size of a small gumball. I really did enjoy having no periods with Mirena, but I had it removed at month 9, with a pending breast ultrasound and mammogram at age 26."


"I am feeling so frustrated. I have developed a tolerance to Seroquel, and nothing else works for sleep. "


"Within the first week of treatment, I experienced an odd tightness in my neck. My muscles seemed unusually tense. My doctor assured me that this would, in time, pass, so I continued taking Abilify. Keep in mind, I was on the lowest dose. After two weeks, the muscle tensity dramatically worsened. My head was forcibly pulled to the left by the muscle tightness. I could not look forward or to the right without using my hands to maneuver my head, fighting my own muscles. I was so scared. After two days of enduring the extreme muscle tension, I discontinued Abilify under the instruction of my doctor. Didn't improve depression either."


Bismuth subcitrate potassium / metronidazole / tetracycline

"Am now on day four, with absolutely no side effects... guess I'm a fortunate one. I have H. pylori, but have been asymptomatic, so don't know yet if it's working... will have to see how the post-medication test turns out."


"Chantix really is not a miracle pill, but it does make quitting easier. I smoked a pack a day for 15 years. I tried quitting cold turkey, using the gum, the patch, and the lozenges and they helped some but I just could never think properly and I would get angry at everything. I have taken Chantix as prescribed and I reluctantly quit on my quit date. It was hard the first 3 days, I was dizzy, cranky, and wanted a cigarette really bad but, Chantix helped to get through it because it was not as intense as with the other things I tried. After 5 days a 25 yr ex smoker said that you will always want to smoke, you just have to choose not too. It gets easier."


"Really helps to stabilize the constant anxiety I've experienced before starting this medicine. I've noticed that the dose that works best for my generalized anxiety disorder is 20mg, but I've also gained 20lbs since starting this medicine despite being active. I'm curious to know what dosage of this medicine has worked for your condition and how you manage the weight gain on this pill."


"I am just finishing up my first month of using Nuvaring. It is obviously a very convenient method of birth control. As far as side effects go, I am a little bloated, my breasts grew about half a cup, and I have had some spotting- which I expected for the first month. I noticed a little more hair coming out when I shower, as did my hair dresser. I took multivitamins and noticed an improvement within a week. I lost about a pound a week so far without changing my old diet or workout routine, but that's not a complaint. My partner said it doesn't bother him, and I can't feel it in there! I would recommend it."


"I was given this medication after a severe bout of anxiety and panic attacks. I lost 25lbs in 2 weeks due to the panic and had no appetite. Of course when you don't eat for that long, nausea can easily set it. I couldn't even move off the couch for fear of feeling extremely sick or dry heaving. I was finally given this miracle pill and the nausea quickly went from 10 (the worst) to easily a 2 or 3 within about 45 minutes. I took it for a week as I tried to get my appetite back and anxiety under control with other meds. Highly effective. I did experience some constipation from this medication, but that could also be due to the starvation mode I was in for 2 weeks. Either way, highly recommend to anyone dealing with nausea."


"I started on this April 22, 2016. I'm 32 and a mom of 2. 5'4. Starting weight was 272. I sit at a desk 8 hours a day. I love to eat. I have tried everything except surgery. Spent lots too! I was always hungry. This medicine has helped me to stay on track with a calorie goal of 1500 or less most days. I bought a fitbit and after work I've only had between 3200 and 3800 steps. So we go on walks and my daily average is 11,000. I started jogging a little bit. Every other day we do toning about 30 min and we get the kids involved too. I have lost 40lbs before but it took me 9 months and living at the gym. As of today I have lost 42 lbs. 230 weight. It has been 13 weeks and not slowing down. Dry mouth yes! But is cool for my results!!!"


"I just wanted to point out that it's important to take as doctor prescribes  The common cold is caused by a virus so that is why your doctor doesn't want to give you antibiotics unless it progresses in to a bacterial infection. You don't want to take antibiotics unless you have to. And you don't want to take them continually for more then 7-10 days or for to short of time. Bacteria becomes immune to antibiotics and can become stronger where your body can't fight them in the future. They are needed in bacterial infections quite often but don't just take any antibiotics for the hell of it or with out a lot of research as they aren't good for you over all."


"I have Restless legs both at night and during the day.  The Sinemet helps some at night, but doesn't last through the night.  I can't take it during the day because it makes me sleepy and upsets my stomach.  If I take it with food it doesn't work at all.
I have a heart condition, so there are some medicines I can't take."


"Pretty good medication for the condition. My thoughts are more straight and I seem to have less visual and auditory distortions. It is sedating though and takes a little time for your body to adjust to it. I take 100mg in the morning and 400mg at night, seems to work pretty good in combination with Effexor for depression, and it's decent for mild anxiety (however if you have major anxiety, it may not be enough on its own)."


"I was on zopiclone for about 14 years and was successful in weening myself off but having difficulty sleeping again. Doctor prescribed Silenor 3mg and with directions "take 1 or 2 tablets as needed". I've opted to take 1/2 tablet (1.5 mg) to start. I've been sleeping and feeling rested on awakening. Not sure if it's psychological or not."


"My Neurotologist/Otologist (Super-Specialist) put me on this for my Erosive Esophagus and Presby ...it works hands-down better than any other PPI's
I can tell it is healing..He put me on 60mg 1x a day for 4 months..into my 1 1/2 months, and it is definately working!! Croaking is becoming less frequent, I am already optimistic that it will heal..and the croaking will stop! You must taper off when the time comes."


"Effective form of birth control yet caused excessive abnormal bleeding during the three month cycle in which I should not have gotten my period. Eventually removed from medication due to abnormal uterine bleeding while taking this product."


"I started birth control at age 17 (orto tri cyclen) after trying doxy and minocycline and it cleared up my acne like a charm! Then shortly before I turned 21 I started getting acne on just my chin (combo of closed comedones and hard small cystic acne) and after about a month of dealing with the acne, hoping it would clear, I saw a dermatologist and asked to be put on spiro since I read good reviews. She told me it was for older women and just put me on tazorac .05% and aczone 7.5%. The tazorac completely tore up my face but after a month my skin got used to it and definitely was helping the texture of my chin but just not stopping the acne (plus taz made my skin super sensitive so when I would frown or move my face a lot my face/chin would turn kinda red... definitely unflattering and not a good topical for summer months) and the aczone was helpful but not stopping everything. Fed up with my derm, I saw a second derm who took one look at my face and suggested spironolactone and benzaclin (antiobiotic). I stopped the aczone and started the benzaclin which worked really well for a couple of weeks and then didn't work well so I stopped it entirely. I started on 25 mg spiro once a day for a month last November 2016. I didn't see results so my derm upped it to 50 mg in December. I started to see small results like decreased oil production on my face and hair but nothing truly impacting the acne. In January I went up to 75mg for a few weeks and then 100mg (50 twice a day) and that is where I am right now (March 2017) and my face for the first time summer 2016 is completely clear. I almost feel like I'm jinxing myself for typing that but it's been a full month without any sort of pimple (even during my period). I can also go two days without washing my hair and my hair would usually be oily by the end of the day so that is a HUGE plus... and the oil on my nose decreased by 95% I'd say.  I don't have any side effects, maybe just prone to headaches from dehydration (so definitely drink lots of water) and I have to get my blood tested for high potassium levels since its a diuretic and can make the body retain potassium. I still work out everyday and I don't feel fatigued or anything! I would definitely suggest spiro, it can take 2-3 months to truly get complete clearing but I'm so happy I waited it out. I did get a slight breakout at upping to 50 mg on my temples which never get acne but it went away shortly and that was my only breakout from the spiro."


"After third marina.....heavy bleeding.... normal??"


"How is this not more widely prescribed? My doc had me on Strattera at first, didn't help at all. Next I switched to Concerta, which worked, but  increased my anxiety, and I had a crash. Next I switched to Adderall, which had almost the same effect as Concerta but on top of that I had no appetite.

Finally I switched to Desoxyn and that's when my life started to turn around. My grades instantly went up and homework became fun for me. Math problems became like a puzzle, and history became fun, like watching a real-life movie. Right when I made the switch to Desoxyn, I got caught up on ALL my homework and my grades instantly switched from D's and F's to B's and A's. Not only that, but my social anxiety was completely GONE."


"Have been taking Ambien as needed for about a month. It's worked almost flawlessly and very reliably each time I've taken it, and I've experienced no negative effects. It's a very calm, peaceful transition into sleep. I used to dread bedtime because my thoughts raced constantly, but this drug has provided a very satisfactory solution. All in all, a quite safe and reliable solution to insomnia."


"I was givin this med for sinusitis and it did improve that but it caused stomache upset and diarrhea. I would prefer to be treated with something else from now on."


"I have been on the pill now for 2.5 years. I started with Apri, hated it and switched to Orsynthia. I had no issues with Orsynthia at all for roughly 1.5 years. It stopped my period altogether for a little over a year, which my doctor was not concerned about. No issues until my insurance company wouldn't cover it anymore so I had to switch to Sronyx. After about one month of being on it, I developed TERRIBLE acne!!! It looked like a papular rash all.over. especially my neck and face. In addition, it made my skin twice as likely to burn in the sun. I have been on it for a total of 3-4 months now and am about to switch back to Orsynthia and let my wallet take a hit. Nothing is worth having a chronic rash this bad all over your neck!"


"I was put on Butrans 10mcg, after getting them painful shots. I still had some 5mg oxycodone, I thought the 7.5 hydrocodone worked better than the 5mg oxycodone. The patch never worked for me with the 5mg pill with it, but when the pill was gone a week or so later, I thought I would walk down to the store. I didn't take my cane & I hurt so bad I just wanted to sit. I continued to wear the patch until my next Dr. appointment. I told the nurse itdidn't help my pain, they didn't want to give me a low dose break through pain pill. I told them to keep it, I don't want it if it don't work. then the next appt. he does shots again & don't write me anything for pain. I thought that was what they're suppose to do help with your pain!!!"


"Works wonders for me! I purchase from outside the USA otherwise, you would go broke!
My insurance does not cover it. The US drug companies should be ashamed of themselves!
It has never failed me. viagra and cialis did not work at all.
I get approx 24 shots from 1 vial
I pay $155 US dollars for 2 vials.
I think it costs like $85 dollars for 1 shot if you purchase in the USA. What a joke!"


"I started ultram a little over a month ago and am impressed with the lack of side effects. I also noticed it helps with my moods..maybe having less pain just makes me happier. Ive had spinal injections and am using ultram to hold me over until I get my next set. I do take it every 4-6 hours"


"I have had an opiate addiction for 5 years. Major back disc problems. Some surgery. But I needed more and more to function. I decided for my family and myself it was time to quit. I needed to stop chasing for drugs when my script ran out. I went 24 hours without Oxycodone and it was bad but I started Suboxone today. I needed two 8mg pills to start and all the withdrawal went away. Amazing. I hope not to be on it too long. My Doctor said 6 months possibly but I think it will be a lot less. I want to be off everything. Right now I feel great!"


"Has helped me so much. I have gained 20 lbs. In 6 weeks."
