"I got the nexplanon in October of this year and it made me evil. Like my moods were the worst. I would get so mean, I was hateful. My boyfriend couldn't stand to be around me. He had left for work for 3 weeks and I cried my eyes out, got super depressed. My anxiety hit sky high. So when my boyfriend came back I went and got it removed. I was on my period for 3 weeks. My gyno forced me to get it and treated me like a child when I wanted it removed. They thought it was a stupid decision. But since it's been out I've been better. Do NOT get the nexplanon implant. It's awful."


"My daughter was taking 10mg for OCD hair pulling, while it did help with the pulling she gained 20kg and could not stay awake which is not a good thing in school. She had no motivation for anything but to eat and sleep. I have taken her off the medication. "


"I took 20mg of Prozac from age 16 to 27 for depression and anxiety to make sure my conditions didn't interfere with finishing high school and college. It got rid of my anxiety and depression 100 percent. The only negatives for me were that this dose made me hyperactive/harder to concentrate, harder to orgasm, and caused some emotional numbness where it was harder to feel in love."


"Yo Fellow Pain Endurers ~
    34 yrs. suffering Severe chronic pain from 10 hr. preventive surgery & 5 Disc Fusion re: rare Diastematomyelia, Tethered Cord & resulting Scoliosis. Tried every known Therapy/treatment. Avoided ALL meds for 29 mind-bending yrs. 'till I was @ life's end.
   Enter Pain Mgmt.: 7 various spinal blocks + Gabapentin/ Prednisone/Tramadol/ Butrans/ Oxy/ Methadone ~ ONLY relief came from high Morphine IM/MS Contin & Fentanyl IM/Patch.  I HATE meds BUT they have SAVED MY LIFE.  Literally. (ya'll know what I mean) Thank God!!!  Peace out.  Matt"


"The only reason I found this website is because I noticed all the side effects I was having from this birth control and wanted to know how others felt. I had been thinking something was wrong or I was just depressed or something but now it all makes sense. I have gained SO MUCH WEIGHT its ridiculous and I hardly eat anything yet it makes me want food all the time. It puts me in the WORST mood and makes me tired. "


"This med has worked a lot better than the 10mg Percocet 4 x daily that I was on before. I take 10mg Percocet cut in half twice daily with the Embeda, it helps while the med has a slow uptake.

The first week or so, I was a little bit dizzy and tired.  That went away and I have no complaints. The meds work.  The Narcan in the pills doesn't bother me or effect the way the meds work for me.

I have had bad back problems for 25 years.  My S Spine and my L Spine are separated on the right side 4mm and the L spine is pushed forward 2mm.  I have had chronic pain half of my life due to this injury. This medicine really helps."


"I was on accutane treatment for 3 months, and finally after 2 years experience trying, depression of humiliation , disappointment and despair , it finally worked out.. My skin is flawless. I'm over the moon. My friends , they noticed it and it was kinda funny cause nobody ever talk about my acne to me. Sadly, it only last for 4 months before my cystic acne come out again which was worse than before. I want to start on accutane again but I was too afraid of the side effects. Then , I found out about COD liver oil. It is basically a natural source of Vitamin A and D unlike in accutane. Now, after 1 months , my cystic acne finally cleared up! Now there's only scars. I'm telling you guys , this stuff is miracle. You should really consider  it"


"I started with a low dose (10mg) for two weeks then started 25 mg for the last couple of weeks. So far so good. I used to have a bout with diarrhea at least 4-5 times a week before taking this medicine, but now have not had any."


"After 9 months of horrible psychotic-type itching I finally was able to see a dermatologist who I believe has correctly identified the cause.  He believes I have eczema.  The stress level following a whole spine surgery probably caused the condition to surface and begin its damage.  I started taking Benadryl on my own and it helped a lot.  When he added the H2 blocker (Zantac) it has all but disappeared.  Wonderful!  Thank you so much!"


"My experience with Trigeminal Neuralgia is that it seems hugely influenced by emotional stress.  Managing this, and bringing presence of mind remain for me the most effective ways to deal with this crippling pain.  Nevertheless, the carbamazepine seems helpful so far, though the side effects only seem to add to the symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis I've been diagnosed with for a dozen years."


"I'm 18 and I have been using Tri-Sprintec for a week now.  I love it so far. I have not experienced any nausea or any other stomach problems. My back hurt for the second day I was on it, it was not bad and went away the next day. I have been going to the gym everyday because I want to lose a few pounds and it's been harder then it usually would be. I haven't lost any weight, but I haven't gained any. My boobs have slightly grown. Not very noticeable.  I would recommend it."


"I have been taking Zoloft 100mg for over a month now for my anxiety disorders and panic attacks that have gotten in the way of my peace  and my family welfare.  The results have been positive, I feel less stressful, less jittery and do not snap at my family for anything.  Also, it makes me feel more positive towards life and people.  At first it gave me mild diarrhea for two days, and yes, my sexual appetite has dwindle a bit.  I fully recommend it, it is worth trying some medication rather than living with emotional distress a whole life."


"I've been on 10 mg ER for 2 weeks.  It is a MIRACLE!  I've had super sweats for 14 years of misery due to autoimmune disorders.  I am now pinching myself because I went to a new dermatologist who prescribed this.  Now, I get to live a normal life!"


"Let me start off by saying this can happen to anyone. I'm a nurse. On 8/31 my boyfriend's condom broke. He noticed & pulled out right before he ejaculated. Although I didn't think I was pregnant,12 hours later I took the My Choice brand contraceptive. The only side effects I had were achy soreness in my shoulders, little bit of nausea, and exhaustion (but I was up all night worrying if I could become pregnant so I have to factor that in too).  Being a RN, I researched the medication, it's side effects, etc. I also purchased Midol & chewable Pepto Bismal---great investment! First sign of a side effect I took the correlating med. Worked like a charm! Today is 9/8, was spotting but it's gotten heavier so it works! I'm 2 weeks early!"


"Well, I have had polycystic ovarian syndrome symptoms since the age of 13. When I was 18 my doctor prescribed Yasmin. Before, I was overweight, had bad acne, excessive hair growth on body and face, and was just angry/depressed. After taking Yasmin, my skin was amazing, seriously! I lost 20 pounds in 3 weeks (was active though), hair didn't grow as much, I had more energy, and I was content. The only side effect I had was a small rash on my ankle, that cleared up in 2 days.
At that time, I only had a 28 day supply. I'm 26 now and haven't taken Yasmin since then. I've gained all the weight back plus more, I have way more hair growth and I'm angry and depressed all the time. I'm willing to try Yasmin again this year."


"My PCP switched me from Ambien to Halcion about 5 months ago because I suffer from severe insomnia. I take 2 every evening, fall asleep fast and sleep about 5-7 hours (which is great for me). I recommend this sleep aid over any other."


"I noticed that I had no appetite at all while taking Effexor."


"I took this medicine for a year and just switched. I had many negative symptoms that started with severe nausea every night about an hour after taking it. For the first three months my periods got lighter for a few months and then went back to heavy I did always get my period on the exact day I was supposed to but throughout the whole year was VERY emotional and at time felt as though I had no control over myself this was my main pushing factor to switching I WANT ME BACK! I just want to say that I understand (and hope others do too) that my body acts differently to birth control than others and just want to let everyone know that not all medicines work for everyone if this does not work the way you want, try something new. BE HAPPY!"


"This drug is awful.  I finished 7 days of it and I still have side effects.  It sure makes people so much sicker. Not sure why its being prescribed.... Never had so many side effects on any med.  The gut issues seem to be the worst     I tell everyone not to take it.  Must be better drugs somewhere"


"I had very bad cystic acne and had to see a dermatologist. She prescribed Aczone and Tazorac, it did not work, it made me breakout worse.  I went back to her and she prescribed doxcycline an antibiotic and within the first week  I saw an improvement. I am on antibiotics, Aczone, and Tazorac, which together works awesome, my dark spots and acne scarring is fading also."


"The pill really works when you have the right dosage."


"Started Jan 2017  at 222lb  and in two months lost 20 lbs because I had no appetite, then stopped losing but kept taking the pills another month with no loss. Had headaches extreme irritability had to tell my boss I was taking a new medication I was so tired and had black under eyes. Constipated dry mouth and nose. Now into May 2017, weighing 202 , and just stopped taking it and haven't gained it back. Maybe I will take a few weeks off and try to go back and see if I can loose more. My out of pocket was $90/ month."


"I don't think Paxil ever worked for me and it always made me feel really bad but I think my social anxiety was a lot better but I feel much better now without Paxil and I'm on Zeldox and Lamictal but I'm getting pretty bad anxiety so I'm trying to find a good medication for anxiety and especially social anxiety because it makes me feel really bad at university. I was on Paxil, Risperdal, Lamictal and Zeldox before and I was always extremely tired and I think I'm less tired now but I can't remember how tired I was before and I was on Paxil when I was 13 and it also made me feel really bad and didn't do anything for my depression and it didn't help. I'm 24 now."


"On third round in 2013 conceived first born. Had a little bit of side effects. But changed to taking them before bed and didn't notice a difference. Trying to convince second child, on first round currently.  (Have PCOS)"


"Apparently there is a word limit here so I’ll try to get my point across. This is NON Hormonal, a lot of bad reviews with complaints that a hormonal BC would cause. Paragard doesn’t have hormones and therefore SHOULD NOT cause the affects that some of the other reviewers are complaining about. Also Copper poisoning is not an issue, read the studies done. You have no more copper in your body than what’s already naturally there. So don’t feed into the negative feedback. Do your own research and discuss with YOUR doc the best option for you. I personally LOVE paragard."


"I'm 18 and I've had 4 Depo shots. So many things in my body and personality have changed and I have just today realized that it's all because of this shot. I have had horrible stomach pains almost every day sometimes multiple times a day, sometimes coming with diarrhea. Also I've had no sex drive, mood swings, terrible anxiety, and depression. I am never getting this shot again, any other form of birth control would be better then this one. Do NOT try the Depo shot."


"I smoked for over 40 years. This is my 2nd time doing Chantix. The 1st time I was able to quit after the first week but really got nauseous. So nauseous I had to stop Chantix. I started smoking a few weeks later. I've tried everything before. Chantix really does take the craving away. I started Chantix again 28 days ago. I'm down to maybe 1 or 2 hits off a cig a day and to the point I will have my quit date by the weekend. I'm not picking a quit date, just going off my craving. Once I take a hit it taste so bad. I made my self overcome the nausea by having a full stomach and drinking liquids. It really helped. I'm determined to finally quit!!"


"Vimpat has some effectiveness for my partial seizures, but it is accompanied by other difficulties:

1. It gave me double vision early on. We had to balance my dosages of Vimpat and Lamictal to straighten out the problem.
2. I struggle with memory problems as a result of taking it. Sometimes I need to ponder extra long to even be able to recount what I did or learned just a few days before. And I'm not always successful.
3.Vimpat has intensified my emotions, especially in causing me to weep. I used to go a whole year without shedding a tear. Now I often can't even go a whole day without crying a bit. I don't think it's depression. I usually am moved to tears over something I deem wonderfully moving. Just totally out of character for me."


"I spotted for a few weeks at first, but it never happened again. I had short, 2 or 3 day periods, only minor cramps, no nausea--a huge one for me because I have a sensitive stomach, no moodiness, no weight gain. It was almost like not being on the pill at all, except that I immediately noticed that my generally clear skin was breaking out like CRAZY with really painful cystic acne. I assumed it was just an initial breakout and tried to wait it out, but I just recently quit after 4 months because I couldn't handle the horrible acne. I did a lot of research and it's progesterone is very androgenic and is known to cause acne. It's a shame because otherwise, it was PERFECT. Because that was my only side effect, I'd still recommend it though."


"I've had this implant for 3 years and am having it removed on Wednesday this week. Since having it inserted I've experienced prolonged and irregular bleeding (the longest being a 12 week solid period). It has had a huge effect on me as a person and has at times put considerable strain on my relationship (thank God I have a hugely understanding and patient partner) I've had mixed reviews from friends and I think its just."


"I have been taking lioresal (baclofen) 10mg 3 x per day, for 3 days now. The side effects are immense! After 20 mins I lose all sense of balance, get a major headache, and need to urinate frequently (which is difficult when lack of balance screws up walking ability!) It knocks me out for hours. Side effects last approx 6 hrs. I have cut down to twice a day now because I can't handle the side effects. Only positive is the pain eases (I have intercostal neuralgia) but not 100% pain relief- maybe 70%. I plan to visit the Dr and get off it asap."


"I began using this medication February 5, 2009 and have lost 25 pounds to date. I follow the 1200 calorie intake recommended and go dancing twice a week as exercise. This medication is a great jump start to changing your eating habits. I no longer need to eat pizza, burger, fries, or soda to feel full. Grilled chicken salad is now my new favorite meal. If used appropriately it should help reach your goal."


"I've been taking the Topamax for over a year now for migraines was on 50mg twice a day now was put on 100mg twice a day helps with the migraines I do have on side effect and that's the drowsiness but as far as a weight medication it has not help me one bit actually I have gained weight on this medication."


"Horrible, horrible, horrible. Spotted for several months and headaches galore. Had to take two pills per day just to stop spotting, and even then - no luck. I called my doctor who switched me to Loestrin which is much better.  DON'T take this - just awful."


"I'm 20 years old, never been pregnant.
I will give you a play-by-play of the process.
First, in my doctors appointment to be prescribed Skyla, my Dr also prescribed me with Misoprostol to be taken the night before the procedure to help dialate the cervix.
So today I took 2 Aleve's and 2 Advils an hr before my appointment. I went to my Dr. she first opened and cleaned my vagina a bit (Im on my period). Then she gave me 3 quick shots to numb the opening of my cervix which felt like tiny pricks. Then she measured me (worst part) it felt like cramps but very manageable. After being measured, she put it in and I barely felt it. That was it!"


"I got my IUD placed 8 weeks after having my first baby. The insertion was a little uncomfortable but quick and bearable. I had cramping the first day and some spotting. So far, I've had my first period which was very light and lasted 4 days. I've had my IUD for a month.  I feel great. It's nice not having to worry about a pill every day especially while caring for an infant. I will rate later on after I've had it longer also."


"I was prescribed Clarithromycin because I asked for an antibiotic which wouldn't upset my stomach.  Well it didn't do that, but by day 3 I was feeling sick most of the time and finding it hard to sleep.  I could have coped with that, but I also had the indescribable awful taste in my mouth which, although it doesn't sound much, became unbearable.  Everything I ate tasted of it, and my breath and urine smelt of it.  It's unfortunate, because the drug did seem to be working, but I had to go back to my doctor and ask to be prescribed something else.  I hope I never have to take this again."


"It's for fever and muscle pain. It's the best if you have a muscle pain after training or the next day. 30 minutes after taking the pill you will be just fine."


"I had to fight with insurance to cover my Nuvigil but finally got them too. I have battled to get my hypothyroidism optimized for years and even when I had it at a pretty good level, I was always tired. The Doc labeled it chronic fatigue and the Nuvigil has made a hug difference. I feel like I can finally keep up with everybody else and don't have to stand up at the back of meetings at work to stay awake. Nuvigil did have some strong side effects at first (headache, nauseous, lack of appetite) but they were pretty much gone after a week or so."


"Years on it. Yes the headaches are gone...woopie!"


"In the beginning I thought this form of birth control was great. I didn't have mood swings and didn't have a period. After using this for a while I gained about 20-30 lbs and had the hardest time losing it. "


"Medication does help with lower back spasms. I found I was able to sleep once the drug kicked in. Taken only when needed, as prescribed by doctor. Side effects for me included pain in left side/stomach area; tenderness in same area; diarrhea for two days after last dose."


"I finally worked up the courage to talk with my doctor about erections and asked for a prescription. I take an antiseizure medicine that has erectile dysfunction as a side effect and am 62. The erection effects of this medicine are amazing. I split a 20mg pill in as many pieces as I can without them crumbling, usually 5, and let them dissolve under my tongue. If I take some Friday night I am good for the weekend and have that fullness feeling throughout the day that makes me feel like a 20 year old and have a hair trigger erection when we are ready for sex. Stuffy nose is irritating, mildly dull headache that Tylenol takes care of. First couple of weeks taking this I did experience muscle aches but these went away as my body became more accustom to it."


"So I've previously used the depo shot which I thought was great.. no periods not too many changes in moods but to have to constantly remember to get it every few months is a drag. I tried the Mirena as well but I had constant bleeding for months and months with no end. I got it out after a year.. I was told many woman get the same effects with nexplanon as they do the depo so I tried it.  I AM MISERABLE.  I have irregular bleeding that lasts weeks sometime, I've been feeling more depressed, sensitive, anxious and moody.  I've been breaking out lately on my face. Does it's job but I wouldn't recommend.."


"This is my second month on Tri-Sprintec and so far so good. I was on the Depo-Provera shot for more than a year and as soon as I stopped lost 40 pounds, and it seemed as though both my body and emotions were settling to their normal state. I started taking Tri-Sprintec months after that ordeal and PMS acne has not been an issue as it had been on the previous birth control. I do get bloated but there's barely any PMS symptoms, I am a little more emotional than I was without any birth control at all which is kind of expected, and my periods are light and not troublesome."


"Third and last day on Otezla.
Took fourth 10mg pill at 6:30am with breakfast. Slight headache, no nausea, no depression. Not feeling myself. I had to make a conscious effort not to 'zone out' all  day. BP is up. Had disturbing dreams last night and woke up with pain in hands, ankles, and back. Every plaque is itching like crazy.
I have stopped taking this drug."


"I was on the Depo shot the first 3 months were great. Loved it well I went in to get my second shot and they gave it to me in the stomach. I bled for three months STRAIGHT.I lgot contact dermatitis in my vaginal opening and soreness from the tampons. I wasn't dry just irritated down there. Well I couldn't take it anymore and my hormones were crazy. My boyfriend and I started dating in the mix of all this. Everything was fine for the first two months. So while I was on the depo my GYNO put me on a progesterone tablet to stop the bleeding, which worked. I ran out of those and started bleeding again. She put me in LOLO worse mistake of my life the bleeding has stopped but I have been awful. Mean dryness and irritation. 4 months In I'm done!"


"Last summer I was prescribed lexapro under the name Liberium for my anxiety and depression. I was told to take 10mg once a day, but to ween myself onto it by taking half a pill a day for a week or two. Most of my time on Lexapro was blurry; I couldn't remember a lot. People around me could tell that I wasn't right. I stumbled a lot, slurred my words, and generally felt very irritable. My anxiety was through the roof but I had absolutely no depression. When coming down from the med, about 3 hours before the next dose, I literally couldn't move. Coming off of the med one day gave me a panic attack and what was diagnosed as a pseudo-seizure: non epileptic seizing while remaining completely conscious. I was taken away by force by ambulance."


"After my last MI, my only recourse was Ranexa because a stent was not able to be inserted.  The next night at the hospital I had three episodes of angina like never before.  I almost screamed for a nitro pill.  Since being on Ranexa I have taken less than five nitro pills in over a year."


"I started with GERD symptoms in August 2010.  Tried over the counter medications and my NP precribed aciphex.  No change. Discouraged. She then prescribed Dexilant and it has been a miracle. I can drink a cup of coffee again.   However, for a month now I have the diarrhea side effect, but I'll put up with it for now."


"I was taking risperdal before this but that made me too lethargic and have loss of interest in everything. Rexulti has helped me with my bipolar and mild schizophrenia. I take 2mg/day. I only had minor side effects like headaches and upset stomach the first week which faded away. I also take Celexa 40mg a day which I have been on for a year. The first few months it worked great but these past few months it doesn't seem to be working. I'm considering cutting down to 20mg/day of celexa because I think the combination of these drugs is too strong for me."


"The medicine was given I.V over a period of 2-4 hours. My problem was the nausea side effect. It was like chemotherapy nausea. They stopped the infusion, but the symptoms continued for a couple of hours.
That said, they gave me Zofran 20 minutes before the next try and slowed the infusion to about 1/4 the rate and all went very well (well, minus the 6-8 hours it took to infuse it). The therapy sessions were carried over to outpatient (I was in once every 4 weeks for 4 months then a maintenance schedule for every 8 weeks). It worked GREAT, complete remission, which really hadn't happened for me in 12 years of Acute Crohn's Disease. "


"It was horrible. The headaches were never ending and It made me so hungry! Ive been off if it for 2 months now. Just got an the Liletta IUD put in last month and its seriously like night and day. I'm so happy I got off the pill. I'm not crazy hungry anymore and my headaches are gone!"


"Hi all, I had Kyleena inserted at the end of March 2017, about a week before my period was due. The process was not that painful, but definitely uncomfortable. I took the day off of work, before a weekend, so I would have a few days to recover. I had some bad cramps following the insertion for a few days and some light spotting. About two weeks later I was having terrible cramps and my period started. The main problem is, it hasn't stopped since. I have been bleeding for about 5 weeks, with intermittent uncomfortable cramps. I also have noticed changes in my digestive patterns, including increase b.m. frequency and urgency. I have a follow up with my doctor tomorrow. I will at least give it three months."


"I haven't had any problems with the new pill. I had loestrin before they switched it over and I never had any problems with it then either. If anything it's made my period go away completely. I've been on both the old and new name combined for about 3 years now. The only thing that's changed is that they've made the chewable option which taste nasty so I just swallow it"


"Did not even notice initial administration of this drug.  Woke up feeling perfectly fine."


"I was prescribed the 25mg pill when I experienced light headedness and dizzy spells for a couple of days. The Dr. told me that I had fluid behind my ear canal causing vertigo and that the med would help. I've taken it twice since last night. Its helping a lot. But, makes me withdrawn and very tired."


"My doctor prescribed Cymbalta for me as an antidepressant.  I am also arthritic and cannot believe how the pain in my joints has improved since I started taking Cymbalta.  I had gotten to the point where I had to go to bed by 7 or 8 pm - not because I was sleepy, but because I was in too much pain to move.  Now I am easily able to do a few more hours of chores before calling it a day.  I am not sure how well it is working as an anti-depressant, but the simple feeling of accomplishment of being an adult able to stay on my feet until "bedtime" is enough to call it a success in my book."


"Almost a year now (7 more weeks to 1st taking of Harvoni-YAY ) 10 months since my 1st test. I was to be checked 6 weeks later but my results were so awesome(10 days later) they skipped the 2nd test to my final test in late February 2016. Final test results=0 again. 14 months prior Harvoni was so bad my condition: severely chronic-daily. Don't get discouraged about side effects/other issues.I had none. Somehow it was EZ Street for me..something wrong, check with your doctor, but I bet you're improving 100%.Taking Harvoni, worked awesome, but my physical recovery seems stagnate/slow ab-swelling,tender).I sustained fibrosis damage. I had child Hepc 30+ years, didn't know til 2014. But with Harvoni I can smile again, live happy again, you will2"


"I have venous insufficency in my legs. I take 50 mg. twice a day. Tramadol makes it so I can be on my feet. Otherwise my legs and feet ache so badly! If I miss a dose I'm achey. This medicine is amazing. And you don't feel weird on it. I dread the thought of not having it, pain makes me feel so weary."


"I am 41 year old female, have been taking Vivaglobin for about 3 years now after immunoglobulin treatments weren't possible due to my veins couldn't take it anymore. I feel so much better since the treatments. I admit, I hate the idea of poking myself 3 times a week, but I can't rave about it enough. I went through most of my life a sick person, and thought I was a hypochondriac. I would hate to see if I couldn't take it anymore, I am so much more healthier.  Thanks to all those donations of blood, in order to make this wonderful drug."


"Great medicine. I need a potent, systemic bronchiodilator in order for my other inhalers to get where they need to go. This is a really important facet to my plan.  I wake up easier, am clear headed, have less depression, and more oxygen to my lungs/brain. I highly recommend it."


"This birth control was terrible! Yes, it protected against pregnancy, but the side effects were awful. I had ridiculous mood swings and became very depressed. I am usually a very happy person, so I knew it had to be this medication."


"I've been on Buspar for two years. The drug does not 'kick in' quickly, but once it does start working, one notices a nice, quiet calm. (It started working for me after ~ 30 days. )It's nothing like the benzodiazepines (thank goodness) and does not make me feel like a zombie with memory problems like Clonazepam (Klonopin) or Valium, etc. I use this in conjunction with Cymbalta and this combination helps me with both anxiety and depression. The only side effect I notice is that I might sweat a bit more. It is non-addictive, but as with any drug used long-term, one become physically dependent upon Buspar and one should follow a withdrawal schedule formulated by your PCP."


"I was scared to death to take this medication. I got the Bactrim on a Friday night and didn't have the courage to take it until Sunday night. The horror stories I read about it almost gave me panic attack just thinking about the what if's. Luckily I haven't had any side effects other than my lips burned a bit after the first dose and I was jittery.  I am sure to eat a full meal before taking the dose."


"I'd love to say this med was good for me. I can't. I've never had such an awful response to a medication.

After 1 week of being on it I began to experience odd sensations. My arms felt disconnected, I couldn't get comfortable.

At the 2 week mark I had to leave work two days in a row, customers were terrifying me, my pulse was 180!  By this time my anxiety slowly shot up so high I was paralyzed. I couldn't walk across the room. I literally was stuck in a chair. Everything was extremely terrifying. Just sitting I was afraid to move. Once I saw my dr, found out I had suffered a severe panic attack that sent me into an anxiety attack for TWO weeks!  I was ill for six months. Read the pamphlet with the drug , it lists SEVERE ANXIETY!"


"This is the only antibiotic that ever works for me. Whenever I have a cold and the Dr claims it is viral, it always goes to my tonsils.

This time I waited 7 days suffering fever and a throat so sore I could not swallow, and eventually went to the pharmacist and asked for Zithromax z pak.

Within 1 day I was 80 percent healed. No side effects. It works for me everyntime. By day 2, all sinus congestion had gone and I got my first real sleep in two weeks."


"This will be my third week on Pristiq 50mg and so far I'm feeling quite positive and free of depressive feelings, however that's only if I get a good night's sleep. I have tried one Temazapam which works well but after the third day the build up in my system makes me feel very fatigued. "


"I liked Ortho-tri-cyclen better, but Tri-Sprintec way worse! I experienced heavier and longer periods while on it and mood swings sometimes (could just be the norm for a 25 year old female though!). I switched to Tri-Sprintec and experienced extreme nausea, although the pharmacist insisted it was the exact same medications, just different manufacturers. I will be going back on Trinessa next month."

"This pill was great for the first year, I lost weight, had no side effects and light periods. I then started having TERRIBLE problems with my stomach, similar to IBS-D. I have since done a lot of reading and found that many women have had this experience with Yasmin. I am switching to the vaginal ring this week and hope that my stomach problems will go away somewhat. I also have started suffering from migraines before and during my period break which I never had before."


"I have been in pain for 3 years and Oxycodone has been a life saver. I take 3 x 40s and 3 x 30 IR a day and I can get up and live my life as best as I can. I still have pain but these have made it better to live. I hate how everyone looks down on this medication that my doctor has helped me with. Thank goodness for doctors who help."


"I am from India. I had severe and uncontrolled acne problem arising due to oily skin and bad liver. I was advised Clindac A (Clindamycin phospate) along with Liv52. Not a single acne since I am applying this gel. As on date, I didnot counter any side-effects."


"I went from an occasional social smoker to going through a pack a day. I smoked a pack per day for at least 3 years and realized I couldn't afford it anymore in terms of my wallet and health. I tried several times but I couldn't make it through the second day. So, I decided to take Chantix. My doctor informed me that because of my age, I wouldn't necessarily HAVE to complete the 12 week program. I could smoke the first week and prepare myself for the quit date. By the end of that week, my stomach couldn't bare it anymore. I didn't WANT one. I would have the random urges up to 2 weeks later. I did not experience the depression or wild dreams. Chantix does not quit for you but serves more as a valuable tool for the process."


"I've been on birth control pills for 20 years now. After I had my daughter I started to have consecutive problems of urinary infection because my doctor decided to switch my pill to something that would not affect my breast milk. After I tried many different kinds of pills and other ways of contraception I was finally given the Loestrin, which changed my quality of life. No more urinary infections, which made my sex life and consequently my marriage much better. Never noticed major side effects. Then when I had to switch to Minastrin, everything was the same, as great as with Loestrin."


"Overall a good drug, I would recommend it."


"March 9,2016 went to my doctor to receive my first prescription of saxenda. I am at a dosage of .6 for one week and every week I am to up my dosage. As of right now it's only my third day of using it but I do notice when I over eat I feel very sick. I have not experienced any of the other side effects...hopefully I don't. I will continue to keep you updated."


"I've been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and have been taking Paxil for about 3 months. When I first began the medication I completely lost my appetite. I dropped 10 pounds within the first 2 weeks without even trying. After about a month it leveled back out. However, even after 3 months I still don't sleep well on it. It has also taken a toll on my sex drive. I'm in the process of quitting Paxil to try something new. You do not want to quit this medication suddenly. You will experience terrible withdrawal symptoms. Even though I am quitting gradually they are still quite intense."


"I received propofol today for a colonoscopy and it worked wonderfully.  I was very worried as past anesthetics caused severe nausea afterwards, but no side effects at all with this drug."


"I took this medication hoping it would stop my periods as it claims. It's supposed to be a generic of Lybrel. I took it for 8 months, never stopped my period. In fact, I had spotting and bleeding everyday. I also became emotional and moody."


"Put on propranol for anxiety 80 mg three times daily. I thought this was a high dose but haven't had a true panic attack since. I still get mild anxiety but it's nothing like before. Helped me to wean off clonazepam so  I would say it's been helpful."


"Wonderful medication!!"


Drospirenone / ethinyl estradiol / levomefolate calcium

"Beyaz worked as far as making my menstrual cycle come at the same time but it made me moody, tired, and really depressed. I'm happy to say I'm switching over and hope my new birth control takes care of the skin breakouts Beyaz caused. "


"I have now been on this med almost a month now I am down to 218 pounds which I have lost a little over 10 pounds since starting and I am feeling great. I do get the tingling in the lips and I already got it in my feet and hands before but it is not biggie. I hardly ever sleep anyway so that doesn't bother me much but it does curb my appetite pretty well and I am loving the progress I am making!"


Polyethylene glycol 3350 with electrolytes

"I experienced a 6 pound weight in two days of fasting while taking this prep. It contains too much sodium for me. Today is one day after my colonoscopy and my stomach is still very distended, hard and I am severely constipated."


"I got Nexplanon about 3 months ago and I love it. The only thing that was uncomfortable was the numbing shot. You don't feel anything after that. My arm hurt for a few days but that was expected. My first period was a whole week but very light and since then I haven't gotten one. The only change I've noticed is when I'm supposed to have my period, I'm very overly emotional. I didn't have that problem before the insert, but since that's the only side effect it was well worth getting it done!"


"Began taking meds last week Thursday lost 10 lbs as of today. Jan 3, 2017. It does work. I find myself a little thirsty now and then but I will continue taking as advised by my doctor. I went from 229 to 219. It really works "


"I was eventually diagnosed with SLE in 2012, 3 months after my first (& worst) flare.  I took prednisone for a week, & started taking 200mg plaquenil & 2400mg ibuprofen daily, & 50-150mg tramadol as needed for pain.  In my experience, the prednisone helped to reduce the excruciating, debilitating joint pain by calming the inflammation, & plaqenil & ibuprofen keep it at bay...for the most part.  My rheumatologist took me off plaquenil 2 years ago; I still take 400 mg of ibuprofen 2X/week.  I still get flares once or twice a year, but they are not as bad...6, as opposed to a 10 , on the pain scale. Tinnitus started a few weeks after I started plaquenil & I still have it.  It's vastly annoying, but at least it doesn't hurt!  best of luck to all!"


"Was on it a month did not sleep and moods were all over the place."


"I got nexplanon February of 2015 and it is now September. I had my period for about a month and a half and it was irregular after that but now my period is regular again. It was a pain having to deal with that but I have not gained any weight and I suggest the implant to all of my friends. I have unprotected sex weekly and all has been good!! Also, I only have to use one light tampon a day for my period"


"I made the mistake of not reading about the side effects before taking this medication. I took my first pill at night and was up all night with stomach cramps and diarrhea. It was so bad I thought I had food poisoning. By the second day I had no appetite and the cramping and bloating in my stomach was unbelievable. It was at this time that I started reading the side effects and realized this was indeed a bad side effect. I too was so happy when my last day arrived to take mylast pill. And although I also experienced an awful taste in my mouth after taking this pill, that was the least of my complaints as all the other side effects were worse. Good luck taking this medication"


"I found Ritalin increased my alertness and concentration. I rate Ritalin 2/10 as I find it increased my depression, from which point I stopped taking. Unsure whether the Ritalin interacted negatively with my usual small dose antidepressant Cymbalta or if increased depression is an unreported side effect."


"On my second lot now, first time I took them I was 16 which is young but at the time I was 23 stone, so was a risk worth taking. I lost a stone a month for 6 months then as the doctor predicted my body became semi immune to them, but I was also cheating a lot then. I've started them again, started at 19 stone this time. (Stopped my exercising and healthy eating, my own fault), but in the first month this time lost 1 stone 4 lb. Xenical is a wonderful drug, but you really must make the effort with it, eat healthy, exercise and the drug really will take care of the rest, best thing since sliced bread."


"False awakening dreams, night mares, vivid dreams, reduced effectiveness over time."


"Besides the high cost, the effectiveness of this medication is diminished, due to the side effects. I started on this medication for nine days and stopped. Constipation was the primary side effect almost at the first day, the worst I ever had, in addition to abdominal pain, slight headache and bloating. My Doctor did warn me about the side effects."


"My legs and lower back were in pain for 2 days."


"Was very depressed and couldn't sleep. Started on 37.5mg twice a day then doubled. My mood has improved a little but not my sleep. No interest in sex. Can't eat - have lost two stones. Don't know what to do for the best! Not suicidal anymore at least."


"Works great. Too expensive. "


"I have had RLS since childhood.  I was on Requip and Gabepentin and the RLS was relieved for a short time  and then returned with a vengence.  My Mother, brothers and sister and grandmother also have it.  I was finally put on Mirapex ER starting at .25 about 6 years ago and am presently on 3.75 mg once a day.  This medication is the only one that pretty much controls the RLS.  I have had no side effects.  Interesting that they say only use immediate release for RLS.  I have been on extended release for 6 years.  I don't know what I will do if this medication stops working as I now have symptoms in my arms and hands.  I am now 67 y/o.

"I recently switched off of this birth control after 10 months. I had no complaints for the first couple of months. My cup size increased from a 34B to a 36C. I am naturally prone to depression, so when I started to have suicidal ideation and deep depression I at first attributed it to my own mental state. After a few months, I finally realized that I consistently got my period in the week following the worst bouts of depression, leading me to believe that my birth control was at least partially responsible. I gained 20 pounds and experienced difficulty with motivation. I finally switched because I experienced two days of constant bleeding ("spotting") two weeks into my cycle for five months in a row."


"Have been using Jublia for about 2 months on two small toenails. So far it's working very well. The new nail doesn't look perfect, but it looks so much better than before. I had tried several different treatments before this, and none of them worked at all."


"I know that many, including myself are not in favour of the pharmaceutical industry yet, when this drug literally saves your life, i.e. prevents suicidal ideation, can you really hate the industry, then? Think about that."


"This pill definitely took away my tention headaches but I did notice I was wanting to use it and started to use even though I had no headache.  I went back and got a refill from my doctor. When I ran out again went back for my follow up she asked if I needed it filled I declined knowing I was going to use it just to use it. I did find it to be addictive."


"I've was on Nexplanon for about 4 months before switching to an IUD (wanted a longer option).

The best thing about an arm implant or IUD is that you don't have to take a pill everyday. There's no missed doses; these birth control methods have a 99.9% effective rate for a reason lol. It's convenient and YOU can choose how long it stays in your body.

Here's my experience with Nexplanon:

No periods, no cramping.

I do have more breakouts but use a sulfur and charcoal treatment along with a spinbrush to combat acne.

My appetite has decreased significantly which has resulted in weight loss (so happy).

Frequent headaches.

More energy.

I would recommend it. If I wanted something more short term I would've stuck with it."


"I just want to review this birth control because I know people are more likely to hop on the interweb to write negative reviews rather than positive ones. I had the Mirena for almost five years and all the sudden CRAZY ACNE started. I wanted a BC pill to help with it, and I was given Lutera.
PROS: After the first few weeks, I didn't break out nearly as bad as I was before taking it. Regulated period after the second month. My boobs! They're bigger!
CONS: Acne was worse the first couple of weeks. First period was gross. Brown, and it came before the off week.
Give it a chance, I'm on my tenth week. You need to give it a few months before deciding you hate it!! It takes a while to regulate everything."


"I have taken Adderall for over a year and I have had great results. I take 20mg twice a day. I stay on task and accomplish so much more in a day. Initially, I was shaky and jittery and not sure about Adderall, but it was stopped and I feel the full benefits of the drug. The only side effects I would tell someone about would be 1) DRY MOUTH, 2)loss if appetite (good for me though), and 3) sometimes hard to get to sleep at night. These are trivial, given the amount of benefit I see from Adderall."


"I have been taking Latuda 40mg for nearly 1 month now. Diagnosed Bipolar II since I was in my mid forties. I am now 65 years old. So far this medication has been very effective. No depression for 3 weeks. No hypomania so far. Seroquel worked fairly well but not as well as Latuda. I have lost a few pounds since I started Latuda. I have recieved some samples and will purchase this drug from Canada due to the outrageous cost here in the USA. My Medicare copay is $450.00. In Canada I can get a 30 day supply for about $180.00. Otherwise I would have to take something else and likely much less effective. Latuda is a great medication for me but it is truly incredible and in a way evil that 30 tablets retails for $1200!"


"I suffer from Bipolar with depression.  I had been on Trintellix (along with a mood stabilizer) to treat depression for approximately 7 months.  My moods had been stable for that long.  Then I had some added stress though and had severe depression... worst I have ever had.  This ended with me being hospitalized and taken off Trintellix.

My thoughts are it worked good for short-term for me, but not long term.  So take this medication with caution & if depression gets worse then seek help immediately."


"Went to the doctor with what I thought was a sinus infection - got diagnosed with flu and prescribed both a Z-pack and Tamiflu. My stomach tends to be sensitive, so my doctor warned me to eat before taking my medications and even took the extra step of writing me a script for Zofran (anti-nausea). I went home and had a good lunch of chicken soup and toast. I took my meds and fell asleep for about three hours. Then I woke up feeling really, really nauseous and proceeded to vomit for the next six hours. However, somewhere in there, my fever broke and I'm feeling slightly better - I am hesitant to continue this course of medication, so I will be calling my doctor to seek further advice on whether or not to continue this treatment."


"So today I started Augmentin & I’m 18... so after I took it, I felt light headed & very nauseous. Like so nauseous I was burping a lot. I haven’t made a Bowel movement since I’ve taken it so I don’t know for I have diarrhea.? And my stomach just HURTS. Should I stop taking it?"


"It worked well at first but then it started making me really manic.  Eventually it caused me to have panic attacks more so than off the medication."


"Dr Prescribed this med for my Prostatitis symptoms, on day 5 of a 28 day plan.  Noticeable reduction in symptoms so far. Pain seems to be fading as the days pass.  Was told to take the whole prescription as just because the symptoms fade doesn't mean it's gone.  Some light side effects are light headed, occasional nausea, and some interrupted sleep, some body tingling also during the day.  But if it makes these symptoms go away it's worth the tradeoff.  Better than feeling like your bladder area is on fire.  If you can handle the slight side effects for a couple of weeks I would recommend give this a try.  Although everyone is different and side effects may differ."


"My doctor prescribed Voltaren after an extremely painful IUD insertion and subsequent cramping. I've never had cramps like these before. I'd literally be curled up in the fetal position, unable to even talk. Depending on the level of pain, this either completely eradicated it or made it totally bearable, and lasted for 12 hours at a stretch. Voltaren is wonderful and I'm glad my doctor recommended it over a narcotic painkiller."


"It's like being extremely hung over eveyday.  Clouded head, no energy, diarrhea and dehydrated.   Not fun at all.  I guess I'll be manic.  Tremors like you've been on a 3 day bender.  Anxiety levels are high.  They were right when they said it doesn't work for everyone.   Hope you have a better experience than me."


"I am a 70 yr old RN. I started having episodes of near-fainting around 16 yr.old (actually fainted twice). I would go to the nurse & ask to lay down-which helped, but she thought I was faking. Next episode, 25 yr old - saw cardiologist, negative EKG, no treatment. Next 2 episodes, 30 yr old, more severe, ER - negative tests. Next 5 episodes, 40-50 yr old increasing severity, ER. During the last ER visit, I heard about a new type of Doc, an electrocardiophysiologist. I wore a monitor for 6 weeks before it finally "caught" the SVT. I started on Toprol 50 mg per day. But then, I had an episode of severe low BP (80/40) - back to the ER. My new Doc said to split dose, take 25 mg AM & PM. No episodes past 20 years. I'm a happy camper !"


"I have been on Victoza for 3 weeks now. Started with the 0.6 dose for 1 week then moved to the 1.2 for two weeks. I have lost 17.1 pounds in that time. My blood sugars are also greatly improved. I whole-heartedly recommend this medicine to any one who can handle the side-effects, which have not been too bad at all for me."


"Well it worked to prevent pregnancy because there was no way I could have become pregnant when I couldn't even have sex since I basically had my period for a month!  In addition I had the pleasure of getting severe cystic acne that I haven't been able to get under control.  The cramps that accompanied my period were terrible. I'm going back on loestrin24."


"I'very been on Lialda since diagnoses nearly 10 years ago. I started with 2xday and progressed to 4x day about 4 years ago. A month ago I had a bad flare and am not on 6x day for a couple days + casana (sp?) Which is essentially the same drug only in suppository. It's already working to clear up my flare, but I'm experiencing acne and jumbled thoughts. Can't wait to drop the suppository once this is under control, hopefully I'm 1-2 wks. I don't know how "Iowa" cured themselves with diet -- I tried that and Lialda seriously changed my life."


"Works ok"


"The first day/night was when I was the most jittery.  The only side effects I got were jitters, slight headache, moodiness, and some dry skin.  They get better as the days go on.  My back pain has totally disappeared."


"Horrible side effects immediately. Could not finish a sentence, felt drunk and tired. "


"I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy by an MSLT and just found out the results today. I only experience ES with narcolepsy. I have been taking this medicine for almost 2 months now. I have had the dosage increased twice. At first when I started taking the medicine, I was very energized and had a hard time sleeping a few nights. After getting used to the medicine I don't feel excessively energized, jittery or have trouble sleeping at all. I just feel awake and it gives me the power to lead a successful life. I have had a few side effects to the medicine. I often experience neck cramps/aches and almost always get dry mouth. I also sometimes have a lack of appetite. These side effects are very manageable. Armodafinil has changed my life."


"Had my first colonoscopy and was given suprep.  I found it very easy to use and worked very quickly once taken.  I followed all directions to the letter.  I was surprised when the doctor post procedure said the he had to take extra time to clean.  I felt disappointed because it's a lot of work to prep for this procedure and I was not happy with the end result."


"I've read pages of these reviews after a second sleepless night due to itching and burning after application. I have blisterform eczema, for 7 tests now. I'm a 26yo female. The eczema is on my feet and is triggered by stress and sweating... and stress causes more sweating. My detmatologist prescribed this for me. Day 1 the sweat was 85% gone and very few new blisters appeared (only 4 when I normally get 10-20/day). It itches and burns pretty bad but I'm toughing through it and am looking forward to tomorrows results (day 2). When I'm blister free I'm going to get my first pedicure ever!"


"Nexplanon has been the worst experience for me!!! I got it inserted June 18, 2015, didn't hurt too bad but the bruising was terrible and lasted about 1-2 weeks. I got my period a few days after the insertion and JUST got off last week. it's definitely good at preventing pregnancy (when I can even have sex) but the side effects are the worst thins I have ever experienced. CONSTANT nausea every day, horrible headaches that bc powders can't even help, I haven't noticed any weight gain yet however I literally feel so sick to my stomach that it makes my appetite go crazy and I want to eat everything and once I eat, not even an hour later is my tummy feeling empty and nauseous again. I don't recommend this unless you want the side effects, tbh."


"I decided to get the nexplanon inserted because condoms weren't convenient. The insertion was amazingly so simple and quick! The numbing agent was just a small pinch, very easy and then my provider inserted the implant with a thing I saw only briefly as I looked away. Be aware before getting this that if you have a lot of migraines or headaches all the time, the nexplanon may make them worse! I very very rarely get headaches but a few days in I was getting some headaches but it was fine after an hour. I have not had my period yet, hoping it will stay the same at least, as for the mood swings...every little thing has been getting on my nerves and I have started crying for no reason 3 times already. I will update in a few months"


"Red Yeast Rice Lowered my total Cholesterol from 300 down to 190 in 3 months.  I continued to take one cap a day for a year and the next blood draw was 170.  I had no ill side effects and my liver function levels were not effected.  I tell everyone to give it a try."


"This is my experience with OSMOPREP:
Procedure was at 4pm Thursday so the directions state to stop eating 12 hours before starting treatment 1. I ate dinner at 5:30 Wednesday and nothing after that. Started taking only 3 pills with 8 oz of water Thursday 5:45 am . after each pill taking I took a walk to prevent bloating and nausea. It worked well plus the walking seemed to make room for more water. So after 5 glasses of water and 15 pills things were good. The treatment started working about 1 hour after the first pills and 15 minutes between. "


"Depakote was given to me for onset postpartum psychosis and underlying bipolar 1 as a mood stabilizer. It did it's job. Wonderful results mentally, obsessive thoughts were all but gone and combined with my antipsychotic, it made my life much better.

But, the weight gain was hellish. I have gained 11 pounds in two weeks, and am looking at switching at my appointment on Monday. So, not good if you are looking for a weight neutral mood stabilizer."


"Been on T. since May 2013.  Was allergic to Copaxone so was on Rebif for years.  Pill is so much better.  Side effects of flushing, burning last only 10-15 minutes during the first month or two of starting the pill.  Cold wash cloth and relaxing helps during the flushing.  Working so well...no new lesions.  I drink a lot of water and eat protein when I take the pill.  Highly recommend trying!"


"Nexplanon was a mistake for me. It caused me nothing but issues such as 20 lb weight gain, depression, extreme hunger, month long periods (I was basically always on my period.) it helped my acne but that's all. I had no sex drive and it was pretty useless due to the fact I was always on my period, preventing me from having sex."


"Hello all,
I used this product and I must admit moments later after I was finished with inserting the egg and applying the cream an extreme painful burning sensation came. It was soo painful and the tighter I closed my legs to "try" to alleviate some of that pain the more it burned like hell. I remember Benadryl helps with bad itching, rashes, etc. I took a Benadryl and about 15-20 mins later the burning sensation was no more and I was able to get a good nights sleep. So, I think Benadryl will help some of you if you are able to take it. If not I would try some other antihistamine that will get rid of that bad burning feeling."


"Worst experience of my life!! I am so sorry I took it!!! I started out feeling great, more energy, then about 7 weeks in developed cardiac issues, had to wear a heart monitor. Developed dangerously high blood pressure, and became bed bound. I am now 10 weeks off of it, and am still feeling awful. I feel as though the life in me has been sucked out. I go for my SVR 12 in two weeks, however the results do not even matter to me, I just want my life back, my health back, this drug was horrible. "


"Started smoking when I was 16 years old. Since taking Chantix for about 3 months I haven't smoked at all. The first week I cut down from a pack a day to maybe 7 a day. Since then I have not smoked at all. Chantix worked great for me. Sometimes it makes me sick to my stomach after I take it. And I have had very weird vivid dreams. But I will take the side effects over smoking!"


"I am a teenager who experienced some mild/bad acne. I was prescribed Ziana Gel in Decemeber and I was very nervous to try this product. For about the first three weeks my acne was getting worse, as my dermatologist had predicted. After those first few weeks, my face started getting way better. By February, my face was clear with the occasional breakout, which was gone by the morning after putting medicine on it at night. At the beginning my face was oily but it got better after a few weeks. Honestly this medicine has changed my life! My one recommendation is to give it time, if you want your acne gone for good I would definitely recommend this product. If you use the tube sparingly it will last you about 6 months."


"I've been taking this medicine since I was little (4-6 years old?) it helped for a few years but now suddenly the side effects have been hitting me hard for 2 years. I definitely don't recommend this medicine for sleep as it is a high blood pressure medication. It makes my blood pressure extremely low, to the point my legs give out and I can't help but fall to the floor. I get very pale, drowsy, lightheaded, weak and it's not nice. It doesn't really help me "sleep" anymore I wake up 2-3 hours later and sometimes I wake up more than once. And the pills always seem to be in my system, I experience side effects every day. I totally regret my mom putting me on this medicine."


"I have bad acne on my back. It really didn't matter what I did. Minocycline clears up my skin in a day or two. The only downside is that my skin is drier than normal."


"I've had anxiety as long as I can remember. Symptoms like insomnia, eating issues, tons of intense fear around bizarre and unlikely life-threatening situations happening to me. I've also struggled with uncontrollable panic attacks during stressful times. I'm now a junior in college, and after a spell of depression (caused by panic attacks and constant anxiety), I decided to try medication (though, of course, taking meds made me anxious. Ha).
I've now been on Lexapro for about 7 weeks, and I am very happy I chose to try it. I'm on 10mg, and the first week was miserable. Like everyone says, stick it out. Now, my outlook is much more positive, and I am way less anxious. Give it a shot! I'm thankful I did."


"i take 0.5mg at bedtime. It does make your eyes dry so I use a lubricant eye ointment. Works fine."


"I was only on the NuvaRing for 30 hours. Within a few hours of insertion I was felling lightheaded. I didn't think anything of it until I woke up multiple times throughout the night feeling like I was on fire and sweating profusely. The next morning I was unable to go to work due to vomiting, jittery and feeling overall sickly. It became worse throughout the day. It came to the point I was hardly able to function that my mother called the doctor who advised to remove the device immediately that my body was rejecting it. I wasn't even on the NuvaRing for birth control reasons, it was to help regulate periods."


"After 4 weeks PICC line daily I needed Gallbladder removal. I was supposed to do 8 weeks treatment. I ended up stopping at 4. Never completed treatment. I never felt better I felt terrible everyday I was sick vomiting, headache, body aches, weak. But most of that is normal other than vomiting and gallbladder. It was also a little inconvenient. But no Lyme is great. I never feel good at all I'm in a wheelchair now I'm not well anymore I don't know that I'll be well until I get remission and lot of physical therapy between now and then."


"I have been on risperidone for about a week. I started getting chest pain on the second day but didn't think it was the medication until I was able to see a pattern between taking it and when they would occur. As of day 6 and 7 I am horribly hungry night and day. It also makes me sleepy during the day which is a pain since I have a young child. My inner anger, which was the main reason I was put on this has subsided though, so I'm going to withstand these symptoms a bit longer and see what happens."


"I was on Zoloft for Depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Panic Disorder. Initially, Zoloft helped me a lot and I didn't have any kind of panic attacks, a constant sense of mild anxiety, or depression all that bad. However, after about a year of being on it it started to make me feel like a complete zombie. I had zero motivation for anything which reflected in my grades and I'm normally an obsessive overachiever in school.. I just kind of let myself go. I wasn't depressed but I wasn't happy, it just put me in this fog-like feeling. The withdraw for me felt like I might as well have been coming off heroin. I couldn't eat or sleep, I had cold sweats, nausea/vomiting, and I had anxiety like never before. It was truly a nightmare."


"Works great at getting rid of RLS, but causes rebound RLS after a few months of steady use.  Also doesn't affect RLS brought on or worsened by extreme tiredness or dehydration.  Rebound RLS is worse than before, and instead of having it a few times a week, RLS is constant after about 8pm, and rebound starts up in the very early AM.  It works well, but I started to have issues after several months."


"Without this I would be lost and panicking all the time. Keeps me calm through the tough time."


Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate

"I had read the tips and it worked well. Refrigerate the prep, get a straw and a lemon. Suck the prep as far back into your throat as possible. Just suck the whole cup down and then bite into a lemon wedge. It kills the taste off. It worked great for me! No problem. My problem has always been white coat syndrome, that is until I remind myself thats how I am . I had no other side effects. Just do it!"


"This drug works. It's not fun....I have suffered all the side effects, but after 10 shots I'm clear now just another 38 weeks......good luck"


"I've been taking 30 mg of Actos per day for 3 years. In that time I have gained 55 lbs and I have had problems with my feet, ankles and lower legs swelling. I would have stopped taking this medication a long time ago but I was blaming the water retention and weight gain on menopause. Now that I stopped taking Actos I lost 4 lbs in 2 days."


"My son began this drug at 13 and stopped growing around the same time. His endocrinologist wanted to give him growth hormone. I took him off this crap and his levels went to normal. do not take as a kid."


"I have Bipolar Disorder with rapid cycling, mixed states, but mostly depression and severe anxiety.  After several years of trial and error I take the following:  Seroquel XR 600mg at night, Klonopin 1mg 3 times daily, Adderall 40mg twice daily, Lamictal 200mg twice daily,  and switched from Effexor XR 300mg daily to the new antidepressant Brintellix. I've had the Lamictal titrated up to 400mg a day for last 3 years. I don't think it does anything, good or bad. It's I've never noticed any effect of any kind. I keep taking it because I trust my doctor and it's cheap."


"Stopped my period and feel great.  Only side effect is gained 5-10 lbs."


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


"I was previously on buspar and had to be taken off due to other issues that began.  I asked to be returned once those issues subsided and couldn't be more pleased with the results.  I take 10mg two times a day.  No real side effects to speak of.  I guess I got lucky that way."


"Honestly doesn't do much for me. Still has big panic attacks. Still has bad anxiety."


"I don't feel burning but deep internal itching.. how can this be? The YI was nowhere near like this. It is very very very uncomfortable. Woke me up out of my sleep 2 hours after I inserted ovule. I should've stuck with regular treatment. I thought something was wrong so I went back and read the instructions and saw where it mentions side effects. Should've been in large writing in red. I'm doing my best to bear it but I definitely would NOT recommend this to anyone other woman. It's crazy!"


"I love this medicine. I have Bipolar 2 and post traumatic stress disorder. I have been on this medicine for 9 months. It puts me to sleep about 15 mins after taking it. I have lost 35 pounds (I had gained 50 pounds on Lamictal and Abilify) I am off the Lamictal. I have been able to stay out of the hospital. I feel better overall. I am trying taking 1 course in college and may even try to work again."


"Just started my 4th week on Contrave.  I have had no side effects except dry mouth.  HOWEVER, I have lost only one pound and am very discouraged.  My first week was terrible.....I swear Contrave increased my appetite, making me ravenous.  I am hoping for some kind of improvement now that I am on the max dose."


"Started Lexapro 10 mg 11 days ago. At first the side effects were very obvious. 1st day dry mouth, dizzy, tired.2nd day, fuzzy feeling, dizzy, tired.Each day got better & Better. By day 5 I wasn't napping anymore. Before Lexapro, I was having serious sleep problems, probably half my depression problem. Well I am sleeping like the dead! Waking up feeling completely refreshed & awake! My anxiety is gone. No more crazy thoughts and negative self talk! Feeling happy for the first time in a year. Try not to read all the negative reviews. Remember a lot of people have other things going on mentally, physically, etc. Some people also combine other medicines with Lexapro. I'm only on Lexapro. So far the only thing is that I can't orgasm. Hoping that goes away."


"I have had bleeding for over a month now and I have never had an abnormal cycle.  Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo is the way to go.  If it's the "same", why am I experiencing different symptoms?
The bigger problem ladies is why can't women choose which birth control pill they want to ingest at a reasonable cost? Why is Ortho now $60 under our plans especially when we are experiencing such horrific side effects.
It costs the insurer more in the long run because I now have to call the gyno, go in for a check, an ultrasound etc due to abnormal bleeding versus simply giving us a choice."


"Trazodone has been a Godsend for me. I tried all the "new SSRI's", like prozac, zoloft, paxil and lexapro etc. and they all made my symptoms worse. My doctor finally decided to try a couple of older, first generation ant-depressants. Elavil was okay, but Trazodone, when I finally got to it, really kicked ALL my symptoms. I didn't have the side effects of the newer SSRI type medications. Trazodone, did not cause insomnia, but rather allowed me to get to sleep. The SSRI's all caused nervousness, agitation and insomnia. Trazodone had no adverse effects other than mild heartburn at the beginning."


"I remember looking at this website 5 or so months ago trying to find reviews on Zoloft and I must admit it scared me to even try it. I have been struggling with anxiety/panic disorder since the age of 13. (I am now 19) It would come and go, I would be good for a few months and then have a month of extreme anxiety. I have tried almost every medication out there from Celxa, Paxil, Lexapro, Abilify and many more. All of them made me feel emotionless. Yeah, the anxiety was gone but so was all my other emotions. I went a year without any medication only to hit rock bottom. I couldn't leave the house, I quit my job, and overall lost my passion for life! Zoloft changed that, it truely saved my life! I HIGHLY recommend Zoloft!"


"Day 5 of trial dosage. I'm doing Weight Watchers too. I see no benefit in terms of appetite suppressant. I have not noticed it making food taste different. I do feel it helps a bit with cravings. It's making me jittery, causing monster headaches and making my blood pressure spike. Not sure if it will be worth continuing. I'll continue the trial if my doctor okays it and post again in the future."


"I've been taking Savella for a month.  I have done fairly well on it.  I have noticed some relief.  I am experiencing dizziness but I am also taking generic Zanaflex so I am not sure of the cause.  I would caution people to be careful taking this medicine with other antidepressants that affects your serotonin levels.  You might want to take them separately, it might make you sick."


"I am women 45 and suffer of general anxiety and panic attacs voor 25 jears. I took Zoloft already tree times in my life and it helped me every time. But every time I stopped my sympthomes turned back. I am taking Zoloft again voor 5 weeks and for the first time I have very bad side effects like naussea more panic bad sleeping...even after 5 weeks. I still hope it will help like other times but it is weard and I am worrying it will not work. I had some good days but genarally it is not going well at this moment. I also tried other AD in the past and nothing helped me like Zoloft. I was always at 50mg and it was enough. Maybe I have to take more or wait longer. I gave it 10 because of his working in the past. Anybody same experience?"


"Insertion actually wasn't even bad. I was terrified for it but just felt like really strong period cramps. I had cramping for about a week after insertion and since then everything has pretty much been fine. My period is definitely a little heavier, nothing major though and I still don't cramp during my period. This is seriously the best form of birth control! No hormones to deal with and I am so happy I don't have to think about birth control for 10 years. I'm so glad I tried it."


"I have been taking this pill for a year, after my son was born they prescribed it to me because I was breastfeeding I lost a lot of my pregnancy weight, but within three to four months I gaming 10lbs back maybe even 20lbs. Horrible right. I didn't have a period for 7 months. Now I get irregular periods,  light periods. My doctor sent me to get a ultrasound to see what else might have been causing the irregular periods. They found something on both ovaries so my doctor is switching me from Jolivette to something else. I've had hair loss with this pill, weight gain and dramatic mood swings and out of control hot flashes. It's horrible I feel like I am having early Menopause. Oh yea also made milk supply low"


"this past Feb I literally thought my insides were being ripped out. Expected to see them lying on the floor after sex one Monday afternoon.I was throbbing and hurting the rest of the evening and into the the morning.The next day I called my GYN and begged to be seen. she diagnosed my with this and several rips. She gave me an Estrace cream sample and prescription along with one for the rips. I do not have medical insurance.I healed the rips with coconut oil and started the cream 1 oz 2 times a week, She says it is not absorbed. Well, all I know is that my hot flashes have lessened, sex is no pain and if I don't use it like I'm supposed to, all that changes!
I'm blessed  to have friends in the medical field that can keep me in samples."


"I just started this pill and so far I've noticed that I have been very moody and my period has become much heavier so far. The moodiness has really affected me and my boyfriend because I start fights over the dumbest things. I'm going to give this a few months and if nothing changes I'm going to have to switch."


"After having some issues with what could be classified as PMDD, I went on a search for ways to help alleviate the mood swings I got every month around the time of Aunt Flows visit. After googling around, Yaz was the number one remedy that I found, so I went to Planned Parenthood, got a prescription, and tried it out for a month.

Let's just say my PMDD went away... but I was in crying fits and had really bad anxiety for about 80% of the month. Nothing new has come up for me that would cause those issues, and it is very abnormal for me to cry that much and have uncontrollable anxiety. In short, this drug made me a crazier and depressed. It sucked! I've been off of it for two days and I'm finally feeling better. Nope! Not for me."


"I only stopped taking this medication because I switched insurances and the new company will not cover it at all! Being off of it, I realize what a huge difference this medication made. I took Brintellix for 4 months. I had some difficulty the first couple weeks, to be honest, with sleep. Taking the medication in the evening made sense for me, I slept better vs. taking it in the day time, I slept worse. I ended up not needing to take any of my anti-anxiety pills after a month! My arousal was not hindered at all. Brilliant medication, thank you to whoever discovered this one."


"Was very nervous for the insertion but it was all a breeze. It didn't hurt so much as just some cramping for like 2ish minutes and then a little achy for the hours after insertion. I did take 600mg of ibuprofen which was probably useful. I spotted for a couple hours after insertion but not to bad. Will see how I  handle the side effects (if I get any). But so far so good! Love the idea of not having to worry for 3+ (if liletta gets FDA approval) years"


"It took care of the nausea but the hallucinations that came with it were a very unwelcome side effect. "


"The $46 spent on the pill was worth it!

My boyfriend and I had sex a day or two after my period ended. Condom broke. Took Plan B within 45 minutes. From what I've read, the sooner you take it the better. 6 days later I get a period again, it was light and lasted all day. The next two days it was brown discharge and that was that.

I missed my regular period date weeks later and started freaking out. I even had a dream my boyfriend and I having a baby. Way to add on to my stress.

I bought four pregnancy tests from dollar tree. I tested two and they were both negative. Finally I got my period a week late and I'm here writing to let you know it does work. Don't freak out but I'm sure you still will. It's okay!"


"At the age of 28 I had a hysterectomy.  After years of taking different kind of hormones my doctor gave me Femtrace.  In January 2013 I was told they quit making it.  I have tried several other medications but nothing works like Femtrace.  I have put on 14 pounds, have severe hot flashes, mood swings, joint pain and do not want to do anything at all.  Just do not know what to do."


"I've had Mirena for 4 months now and I love it. I've read so many stories about the excruciating pain women have felt during insertion, but for me it was no worse than a period cramp and it didn't last very long at all. By the end of the day I was back to normal. There was some light spotting at first. I love that I don't have to remember to take a pill every morning or else I'd probably be pregnant again. I would definitely recommend it."


"I went on Accutane in two cycles back in 2001 and 2002.  Nothing works as well as this medicine, but the dry lips are a bit hard to deal with - if you're like me, I would take dry skin and lips over acne any day.

I still get breakouts every now and then, and am considering a 3rd round (6 years later).  I would definitely recommend it."


"I've got severe PTSD, OCD and social anxiety.

I started taking Zoloft to help manage my PTSD symptoms, mainly anger/rage, flashbacks and dissociation.

I'm a small male, I only weigh 125 lbs. I started at 25mg and then jumped to 100mg then 200mg within 2 months because this stuff's like water for me. I've been on 200mg for about 7 months now and it's helped a lot although not enough. I still feel my symptoms when they hit me, although they're slightly toned down.

Btw I don't feel like a zombie at all, I still feel like myself, just more calm. It feels as though I'm not taking anything at all most of the time.

I've basically also never had any side effects except the first day or two I had a slight sore stomach but nothing close to bad."


"I recently went up to 10mg once a day of norvasc. Still does NOT help BP

I have other medical conditions so I am not sure what side effects are from what conditions and other Meds. What I do know, is now i have crazy swelling in my hands legs and feet. It got so bad in my feet I could barely walk anymore. Even though it's not listed as a side effect I it feels like my whole body is swollen

I am done with norvasc forever."


"I experienced much greater effects from Provigil on initial exposure than I have during regular, ongoing treatment. Had the initial effects (perfect alertness without excessive excitability) continued it would merit a rating of 10. However, I still find it indispensable and would be hard-pressed to give up that particular prescription."


"Reduced bloating frequency and duration.  Reduced IBS-D. Side effects dry mouth, dizziness (mild), occasional thirst, feeling of fullness not bloating."


"Easy.  Fast.  No problems."


"I'm 18 and I have struggled with my period for around 3 years it was always so heavy and it went for a month straight during summer that's what pushed me to get this implant one of my friends had gotten it for the contraceptive method and said it stopped her heavy period completely, it's been a year since I've had it in and honestly it's the best decision I've ever made!"


"I've had the Nexplanon for a little over a month. I'm five days late, but I'm guessing that's because of the Nexplanon. I haven't had any bad side effects. Having it inserted was pretty painful, sore for about a week. But now that's it's healed I barely even think about it. As of now, I love it. Don't have to remember to take a pill every day, no period (yet). Hopefully it will stay like this."


"I have a urinary tract infection and was prescribed this medication along with phenazo, which takes the burn out of urination. They warned me that Macrobid might cause slight stomach upset but I threw up four times in a row last night and feel nauseous all the time (regardless of how much I eat).

I had a UTI a few years ago and was prescribed a pill that caused no stomach upset. Why are they prescribing macrobid now?"


"I was on celexa for about 3 months, started with 10 mg. and raised up to 20 when I felt no changes. After going up to 20, i felt constantly tired, drowsy and like a walking zombie. My anxiety and depression only got worse, it caused me to have thoughts of suicide and self harm and I just felt worse overall. My experience on celexa was terrible and I would not recomend this drug at all."


"Abilify has been useful to me in terms of sleep and improving my insomnia, but I still have to be treated with a mood stabilizer, like Lithium, in order to keep my bipolar episodes under control. The good news is that it did not cause (I was at 10MG daily) weight gain like Zyprexa. Good luck to all of you!"


"HELLO world, Writing a review cause 'Im just like you scrolling thru, I wanted to share my experience with this medicine, first things first this DOES NOT work right away it takes about a month or two For me at least to kick in, so do not stop after like a week unless you have horrible side effects. I satrted from 20mg all the way to 100mg. Helps a lot with S.A , G.A.D and depression, and as well as Agoraphobia Panic attacks are gone, Still get anxious but a normal nervousness not overwhelming, no more crying spells.. This Medicine won't Cure Mental Illness but it definitely HELPS! %u2764%u2764%u2764%u2764" Give it a Try, & always keep ya head up! ! if it doesn't work you can always keep trying other SSRI's that will help your everyday life!"


"I got the device inserted on May 2, 2017. My doctor advised me to take ibuprofen 1 hour before the procedure. I'm glad I did. It was a crampy feeling after and I bled a little then it stopped. I got mine I  1 week before my period. When my period started it did not stop for 2 months! Light, medium and heavy flow. I had no idea what the day would be. It's been a few weeks and no period. I break out with acne some and get bloated but nothing major. It's worth it not having a period."


"I got Nexplanon inserted on 4/4/14. I've had it for a little over four months now & have experienced minimal problems. However, I get migraine headaches that last the entire day, I'm very moody/emotional, it made depression so much worse, the implant site hurts all the time, I bleed whenever I get aroused, and I hate having the rod inside me. Those are however somewhat manageable side effects, but because I'm sure I could find something better I'm getting it removed in 2 days."


"Mobic - the miracle pill. I have had chronic pain in my right knee for the last 6 months or so, it was getting worse by the day. I have now been taking Mobic 15mg for two days and I have no pain at all. I have read that there can be some nasty side effects, but at the moment I really don't care. I can walk pain free again."


"Been on Chantix for 2 weeks now, get the nausea (but just now read to take with food) and vivid, fun dreams.  Other then that no other adverse side effects.  Been a smoker since I was 13 years old, now 46 and average pack-pack 1/2 day.  With Chantix down to about 1/2 pack per day.  But not a strong urge to quit, hopefully soon. "


"I only had the implanon inserted about 3 months ago but so far it has had it's pro's and con's. I'll start with the pro's. It's great not to have to worry about taking the pill or getting pregnant!! I haven't put on any weight at all. I haven't had depressed thoughts/anxiety even though I've experienced this in my past. My sex drive is great.
There is just one con which is quite a big one for me considering I'm in a new relationship etc.  My skin has developed this awful acne. Really deep, painful spots that appear all over my chin and forehead. I got a few spots before but nothing like this. They are so so painful I've had to go to my doctor and they've prescribed me with 80 days worth of antibiotics and gel to hopefully help it."


"Having AS and osteoarthritis since childhood and now 52 years of age I have tried just about anything and prednisone not only relieves the pain, but my whole body feels more flexable and I find I have more energy. I was on it while awaiting a knee replacement, but was pulled off it, Went through the roof. Went back on until my Rheumatologist weaned me off in prep for the knee surgery. But what I cannot get through to the doctors is I'd rather have the best life I can, be it long or short. I want to live and prednisone gives me that. I have reached the stage where if they will not proscribe it, i'll buy it on the net, but life is too short to live it in unbearable pain."


"This works great for coughs.  I had bronchitis pretty bad and it worked almost immediately.  I didn't really look at what the doctor was giving me so I didn't realize right away that it was going to be so strong. I don't take it every four hours as directed.  I take it once or twice a day and that is enough.  At first I made the mistake of taking it right out of the bottle; big mistake.  Don't take more than directed, in my case I was told to take one teaspoon.  That is more than enough.  "


"On starting the self injection Enbrel, it took six weeks to take the pain away.  Enbrel if I had it prescribed twenty years ago, my life would not be wheelchair dependent. My life is anything but painful. I can take part in daily life, enjoy all that can be given."


"I have been taking Megace, in conjunction with Xeloda for the past year to help treat my Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer.  Since my tumor is estrogen feeding, this medication takes the estrogen out of my system.  Tumors have CONSIDERABLY shrunk since I've been on this medication."


"I've had the implant for just about 4 years now. During the first couple of months it was okay no spotting or anything, then out of no where I had gotten a period that lasted for 3 weeks straight. The periods would go away for maybe a day at most and come back for another three weeks. I'm finally getting this implant out of my arm so I can have a normal life without constant bleeding."


"I have had the iud 2 times. The first time I had no problems very little cramping, very light to no bleeding. I went in 2012 after my son was born to get it again, and this time it was horrible. I had a lot more pain when inserted. I went back into for a checkup with my doctor to make sure it was in place, and he couldnt see it or feel the strings. So he told me that my body rejected it. So I thought he meant it fell out. I ended up going to the pill, and happen to be pregnant with my 3rd child. In 2015 I went to a chiropractor and had an xray done, and low and behold the iud was still in me. Looked like it was inside the uterus too. Now I am having to face the possibility of having surgery to get it out. My 3rd child was early and in nicu"


"My cough was worse after taking these, dry continuous cough after taking them.OTC was much better. Waste of time and money."


"Been taking these due to 2 back surgeries within a 9 month period. Doesn't really help with my muscle spasms."


"Experienced depressive symptoms lightly for years. Then over the past year when exposed to many life stressors because signficant in impairing my quality of life. Celexa has greatly improved my quality of life and most days I feel little to no depressive thoughts. I have been taking Celexa for 6 weeks. It also got rid of my anxiety (70-80% of it) and has improved my OCD symptoms a great deal.

I started on 5 mg upping to 10mg"


"I have had the Nexplanon for 7 months now, it has been the most effective birth control I have used, compared to the IUD and birth control pills. I have 4 kids due to the the failures of other birth control methods, they were used 100% as directed by medical doctors. 3 months after getting the Nexplanon I stopped all periods, but still had all the cramps and side effects of a period. Not the best feelings."


"I have always had acne...nothing crazy up until a year or so ago. Throughout high school and beginning of college I would always have a few pimples but that eventually turned into cystic acne all over my face. I don't know what triggered it. I found it difficult to look at people or hold a conversation with someone w/o feeling like they're staring at my disgusting face. I took a trip to the derm and she took one look at me and said I was a candidate for accutane. I started at 30mg and by my last month (month 7), I was at 90mg. Side effects I had: extremely dry lips (especially the corners of my mouth), back pain, and fatigue...but they were all bearable. I'm blessed to have been on accutane...skin is perfect!"


"This medication is brilliant.  Completely got rid of my depression and social phobia. I take 75mg/day.  The SSRI's didn't really work.  Was laying on the bed all day thinking of suicide and death.  After I started Nardil my life completely changed.  Thank goodness for the medication."


"Took Naturethroid successfully for 3 years, 32mcg/day. Developed Hashimotos with a small thyroid nodule. Increased dosage by 16.25 mg 2x/ week. Dr did not do a follow-up check on serum T3 levels.  Toxicity after only 6 months - weak, lung tightness - faint, developed food allergies very quickly. Scary experience which has lingering effects 1 month later. Switched Tirosint which has no fillers &T4 only. Working ok so far."


"Have very recently started taking gabapentin after spending over half my life in chronic crippling pain. Years of stretching, chiropractors, physical therapy, heavy pain medications, cortisone injections, along with bi-lateral foot surgery, bi-lateral TMJ surgery, and reaching the point of wishing I was dead due to pain being unbearable a new GP from a small clinic was the first to say the word Fibromyalgia. Within a few days I noticed that I was able to return to daily activities again like laundry, cooking, and playing with my kids and the family pets. My mood and outlook on life has dramatically improved. Still occasional aches but nothing like before, and only occasional Lortab for extreme days. Gabapentin gave me back my life."


"I've been on abilify for almost a month the only side effect I have is waking up in the middle of the night a few times I have actually lost 12 pounds I am eating good and drinking plenty of water so I'm sure that helps I'm also on Zoloft and topamax all in all it's a much better drug than my previous geodon I would recommend it"


"Please tell me you are still going to be making Enjuvia. I have been on this drug for years and it really works great for hot flashes and mood swings.
I need my prescription filled and I am totally out it. The pharmacies are all saying you are not making it any more and that there is no genetic drug- period.
I beg you to still make this product.
What are we to do if we can no longer get it and there is no form of a genetic made?
Us patients can't go off of Enjuvia cold turkey. Evidently, the pharmacies were not warned ahead of time and neither were the Prescribing doctors., that the drug was stopping being made.
This is terrible."


"December 2016 I started on 5mg of Trintellix. I'd reached a point in life, 65, where my life was more than I could ask for: good job, strong marriage, good friends, healthy, and yet I lived a dark cloud of fatigue and disconnection, lacking excitement and motivation. I was just maintaining. So I tried Trintellix. I'm now on 10mg. For me I've had little to no symptoms, and a rebirth of joy, motivation, and creativity. I've also added a weekly exercise routine at the local Planet Fitness. Between diet and exercise I find this modern medicine to be a miracle. Of course I realize my body will probably adjust to this feeling and I wont' be quite 'euphoric' forever, but I now know what feeling good feels like."


"I am 19 now and started taking ADD medicines when I was 17. I had used Adderall for a few months and had to stop because of the 'rebound' I got from it. It made me too agitated and easily angry/sad when coming down on it near the end of the day. I switched to Focalin XR and it worked well for maybe another month before the same thing started happening. My doctor then wanted to try one more time so he said there is a newer stimulant out for ADD/ADHD and it is pretty much like a cousin of Adderall. He said there is a better chance that this won't have a negative rebound. I have been on 60mg of Vyvanse for a few months and I have not felt any type of negative side-effects like I had before. It works great and helps me stay focused with school and work."


"I've taken this medication a couple times in my life and have had no adverse reactions"


"I have been taking Trivora for over a year and it is wonderful.  I have experienced no negative side effects.  I would recommend it because it works beautifully for me."


"It didn't help depression or low grade chronic pain AT ALL. I had better depression relief from Celexa and Wellbutrin.

But the biggest reason I caution against cymbalta is because of the extreme withdrawal symtoms I experienced. I followed the doctor-recommended protocol to wean off. Weaning seems to mean prolonging misery. The nausea and dizziness I have endured for the last 5+ weeks with no end in sight is debilitating.

I urge you to please research your options thoroughly before even trying cymbalta."


"I had a non-stop period 3 months ago. The Doctor prescribed Jolivette to let my period stop but after 6 days my bleeding doesn't stop at all. It's annoying because you can feel the gushing of blood. Until I asked my Doctor to switch it into another pill."


"Be careful when you take this! The first time I popped a blue pill, my tongue felt itchy and tingled. I thought nothing of it. Gradually, I had noticed that my reproductive organs were acting up, but I thought it would just go away. It got to the point where they were so sore, I couldn't use tampons without being in constant pain. (Not to mention I had a strange clear discharge that would soak through the tampon leaking through my pants and staining the chair at work... That was fun. My gyno didn't know what it was, which was comforting.) 3 months into it and with the mentality that everything would just go away with continued use, I broke into hives everywhere on my body: inside my ears, all over my tongue, everywhere you can think of."


"Sprintec gave me yeast infection, constant bleeding and loss of appetite, as well as sex drive. I haven't had a yeast infection in over ten years so I know it was the Sprintec because I got the infection after first 2 weeks of using it. I have used Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo in the past with very little side effects. I thought would be the same as Ortho. I am definitely switching back even if it costs more. "


"I have been taking Reglan 10mg doses for years. It has changed my life in a good way. It has controlled my gastroparesis completely. I was having to go to the E.R. for pain before I started Reglan. I take 4 a day. 2 in the morning and 2 at night. I have had no side effects at all from this medicine except relief. I would recommend Reglan to anyone suffering from gastroparesis."


"My doctor gave me samples for a pulled muscle under my right breast; glad I did not have to pay for them because they've done nothing for me!"


"I usually get pain/gout attacks behind my big toe. This causes the pain to radiate through my inner arch towards my ankle. Makes it a pain to walk and function properly. I took this medicine and by 3rd dose the majority of my pain is gone. This medication is a life saver!"


"Helps decrease the amount of nerve pain but does not eliminate it completely.  Decreases about 50%.

Side effects noticed: blurred vision and constipation."


"i said i will write a review if it worked so here i am. It all happened when the condom broke and my boyfriend finished inside. We took action right away and got the pill. Took it the next morning and got my period a week and a half later."


"This is a great medicine for my bipolar child, for anxiety.  I asked my own doctor for some when I found Ativan too sedating for daytime anxiety. I found it works even better when it came to muscle tension and racing thoughts than any other anti-anxiety medicine I've taken."


"Was prescribed this Toujeo insulin pen, caused vision lost.  Stopped use vision was restored."


"Works wonderfully on my spinal arthritis. Thank goddness for this medicine."


"Second time having chylamadia somehow...took the azithromicyn last night felt like I was going to throw up after but kept it down. (I made sure to stuff my face before taking it too) now I have an upset stomach ): please wrap it up - unprotected sex isn't worth it"


"It is too soon to give a full review but beware I tried this medication on my face and had intense stinging and burning to the point where I had to remove it. I tried to leave it on for 5-7 minutes to see if it would subside but I did not make it that long. I am not sure if it's because my face was so dry / had broken skin. I am going to try it on other areas of my body and see what results I get. I am currently sitting with a towel and ice packs on my face so be careful with this ointment!"


"my doctor gave me latuda because I wanted to stop zyprexa and seroquel because of the weight gain. She told me that latuda doesn't cause weight gain. I took 40mg and it seem to work pretty well it wasn't as great as zyprexa but it worked well........but I had to stop because even though my insurance covered the drugs, the copay cost me $500 which I obviously cannot afford. So am going cold turkey on everything.....why cant I just be normal?"


"While I havent been on it long I can say I have been WORLDS different. I originally was on sprintec for a good 10 years. Got new job where I just got my rxs filled there (ins requirement) was given estraylla as a substitute can we say all hell broke loose on it. Moody(which Im not at all), gained 15lbs, always bloated, foods I should want and love made me sick,no sex drive, horrible periods, lethargic etc etc. Well then the pharmacy got mononessa in, no joke within a week the bloating subsided, I dropped 5lbs, mood was way better, drive is back. Honestly feel better on it then even sprintec.Watch your inactive ingredients, thoes are what cause the side effects more than the hormones."


"I pulled a muscle in my back on a Saturday. The pain was intense. Sleepless nights because of the pain. I started taking paracetamol and ibuprofen which did help during the day time. But once you have a sleep waking up was painful.
Saw a doctor today. Now Friday. They told me to get naproxen 500mg. Take 1 twice a day. Took one as soon as I got home. Seem to work. Put still had the pain. Slightly. Took 1 before bed time.  Only to awake in pain. I will continue using them as described by my GP but now using paracetamol to. Anti-inflammatory maybe but not a pain killer."
