Non-professional concern that Idaho Hick's reaction is close enough to symptoms of acute angle glaucoma, potentially caused by the drops, to warrant further investigation, but my experience is increased blurred vision that continues 18 hours the ophthalmologist appointment, and a physiologically depressed heaviness. Reported to doctors but they are unconcerned. | 1 |
I completed the third shot in the series on Thursday before Thanksgiving. After the first and second shots I experienced about a 90% reduction in pain and did not need to take any pain medication at all. After the third shot I started experiencing more pain again and needed to start using pain medication again. I am hoping it goes back to the 90% with no pain medication. | 5 |
I started taking the Belviq about 2 weeks ago and I'm already down 10 pounds. The bad part is I have the painful urination, frequent urge to go, back pain, increased headaches. I have gone to 2 specialist about my "bladder issue" and they have confirmed that this medication is the cause. It sucks because it's effective but I can't take the irritation. | 4 |
These help me better then Vicodin. Have tried numerous pills - I have Lupus. | 7 |
Hi all! No history of any acne during my teens. Started bcp when i was 17, now at 26 I went off (ortho tri cyclen) to try the Mirena IUD. I went from having not one pimple a year to about 5-6 large cysts a week. I had the IUD in for about 5 months and started breaking out almost immediately after i got it. I got the IUD out about three weeks ago and started taking Zarah (generic for Yamisn). My insurance will not cover Yasmin and I can't pay for it out of pocket. I'm finishing my first pack this week, I've seen no improvement. Will continue to take it until I get used to it and I'll report back to you ladies. I hear month 3 is the charm. Wish me luck. I hate make up and can't wait to go back to my clear skin again. This sucks! | 9 |
I have been taking estazolam over 30 years without bad side effects. I fall asleep quickly and wake up rested. I have taken other meds for insomnia because of all the severe warnings but none have worked for me. Medicare will not pay for this medication because they say it's not for insomnia!!! | 9 |
I am a health care worker and inherited the risks of heart disease and diabetes. Worked for years in a high stress University teaching hospital. Had vague symptoms, knew what to do and didnot delay getting to an ER. Called a friend/cardiologist - yes,had a heart attack without muscle injury(thank heavens!)Had triple bypass. Followed Doctors order to the "T". Recently started on lisinopril and have had improved blood pressure and heart rate control. Overall feel 90% better. | 7 |
I have had bad spots for a couple of years now, seemed to get worse the older I get but isn't quite acne. Went to the doctor was prescribed Epiduo. Have been using for 4 days now and I'd say my spots have reduced by around 50% already! I have really dry sensitive skin already so was a little worried about the reviews stating burning/redness. There is a slight tingly feeling but nothing unbearable and only had redness for the for the first 2 days. I've used loads of face washes and creams over the counter but nothing had ever worked so quickly and effective on my skin. So impressed with this and would definitely recommend for anyone feeling insecure about their skin like I was. | 9 |
I got mirena to help my endometriosis . I no longer have pain, no longer have headaches that the pill gave me . The iud has made my life so much better and easier . I spot occasionally and have a very light period it's very nice ! | 9 |
I started Deplin after having genetic testing And learning I had gene mutation. After 3 days of 15mg of Deplin I developed a raised red rash on both checks. From day one I noticed A huge difference in my mood and depression. I have tried probably 30 anti depressant over the years. After researching online I plan to get the 7.5mg dose and cut it in half and start at a smaller dose. As for now I am stopping it until my rash clears up once clears up I will start taking half of a 7.5mg tablet. Hopefully I won't get rash from that lower dose. But definitely recommend especially if you treatment resistant depression. | 9 |
Phentermine 37. 5 is the only way I have been able to lose weight. I took it 2 years ago and lost 29lbs. I've now gained back 30 lbs and work out 3 times a week. | 9 |
My rheumatologist put me on Lexapro for both depression & fibromyalgia, after Cymbalta stopped working for me. I started it two weeks ago Tuesday & I absolutely love what it's doing for my depression & anxiety but hate that it's caused me to gain at least 5 lbs already. I'm going to try to stick with it for another 4-6 wks, but if my weight continues to increase, I'll have to wean off of it. I dread weaning off of antidepressants. | 6 |
Side effects lightheadedness and tired | 2 |
I was having a severe, excruciating pain in my leg. It was tender to the touch and even putting on pants was such a struggle. I had an appointment with my doctor and from what I explained, he told me I have Fobromyalgia and put me on gabapentin 300 mg 3x daily. Ever since I very rarely have flare ups. I have been extremely stressed and have minimal to no pain. I still have a little pain. But it's not as severe as before I was diagnosed. So it works for me. | 9 |
Worst birth control I have been on. I got it 1 and 1/2 yrs ago. First 7 months was fine, then I started bleeding randomly. I bleed on average 25 days out of a month (most days straight was 22) Those 6 days I don't are mixed in the middle mostly two days at a time, some even include spotting which I don't refer to as bleeding anymore. I live with a tampon in! Had my hormones and thyroid checked for to see if that was the culprit and had a transvaginal ultrasound which showed I had a cyst on my left ovary. It definitely will keep you from getting pregnant due to the constant bleeding. I'm getting mine out at 10:20 tomorrow and I can't wait ( have thought about cutting it out myself ) I don't want to wait 12 hours! | 0 |
I was switched from Humalog flex insulin to Novolog flexpen and I've noticed that since then I have gained 21 pounds and I'm trying my best exercising eating right I'll lose a pound and gain 3 I need help what should I do? | 9 |
I've been battling MDD for about ten years now and I've been on and off many different medications. My biggest complaint with most of them was the fatigue. I'm only 24, but while I was on this medication it was hard for me to keep up with my friends that were similar ages. I was always tired, always taking naps and still going to bed early. With Brintellix, the fatigue is GONE! It's easier for me to wake up, I can do more during the day without wanting to take a nap and having more energy has given me the opportunity to start exercising again. I do have a bit of stomach upset while taking it, but it is mild and, frankly, a smile price to pay when considering all the good Brintellix does for me. | 8 |
This birth control pill has negatively impacted my life. I am currently suffering from cystic acne, constant bloating, depression, and mood swings. My appetite has increased, but the most notable thing just how badly I feel. I've been on this pill for 4 months. My hope was that everything would balance out, but it still has not and it literally feels like this pill is killing me. | 0 |
I've only been on Microgestin Fe 1/20 for like 2 weeks now I love it. I started the first day of my cycle, very skeptical at first about birth control in general. But I started my cycle, was two days longer than usual with extremes light bleeding the last two days, I guess you consider that breakthrough bleeding. Other than I have not experienced much side effects which I am so glad about. Other than being very emotional I'm already a ball of tears so it kind of made me extra sad but not to much. One day my feet were swollen...don't know if that's a side effect. But once again nothing serious. I'm hoping my breasts do up a size, or two. Definitely recommend for 1st time birth control. | 8 |
Only thing that stopped me from having seizures | 9 |
I have had irregular periods for a long time I was on Ortho Lo but due to insurance I had to take Tri Sprintec. I read a lot of the reviews and I was so scared to even give in to taking them but I was bleeding off and on for 5 months so I felt as of I had no choice. I never got sick I felt a little light headed no sore breasts or anything my stomach did feel a little weird but like most meds you should eat at least an hour before taking it. My the time I reached my white pills I started my period it was awful but that due to the fact I didn't really have a period in months I could barely work I changed a super plus tampon every hour after that day it was manageable. So far so good though. | 8 |
So I was initially prescribed Lexapro over this past summer. It was supposed to help out with my mood and overall sense of well being. After taking it for about two weeks in a row, my doctor told me to stop taking it and switch to Trintellix, since the Lex was causing an unbearable amount of drowsiness. I stopped going to work because on average, I'd get out of bed after 12 or so hours of sleep. Ridiculous, but I figured it would be worth powering through. It wasn't until my mood started getting worse, like I was running on 4 hours of sleep and didn't study for a final every day. Trintellix has so far been a godsend, no adverse side effects. Unable to refill the trin at the UC, I went back to lex, and after 2 days, the dread was too much... | 0 |
Recently diagnosed with IBS (D) after months of pain and significant weight loss 30+ llbs. Hyoscamine didn't help much, Librax does but the side effects for me are awful, after 2-3 days on it I develop severe headache which does not abate no matter what pain releif I use, if I continue to take it it then triggers days and days of cripplig migraines. So at the moment I take it on and off to keep the side effects down. | 7 |
I have had all three of these type of shots over approx 12-13 years now, first the synvic, had moderate relief for 9 months, Doctor no longer accepted my insurance. New Dr and used Hyalgan, great results, even getting 2 years at a time even playing softball. Now moved to Florida and trying the supartz once already, not real good results but trying it again, into my second shot, lets see | 7 |
I have been on citalopram for 1 month now and feel its defo improved my condition (depression & anxiety) the 1st few weeks where quite bad with paranoia, insomnia, dry mouth although still get a butterflies like panic feeling sometimes but passes quite quickly, would defo recommend this medication it has improved my outlook, social & work life, and a lot better in myself, hope this helpful and good luck:) | 8 |
I was tried on numerous medications for my chronic pain. When I took my first dose of methadone, I was "nearly" pain free for half the day and the dose doesn't need to be increased as often as it did on other drugs such as Oxycontin. For break through pain I only need an anti-inflammatory or another mild narcotic such as Percocet, and only rarely.
I think this is a great drug for pain! | 9 |
I got the shot at my first 6 weeks check up after I had my baby and I bled 6 months straight it finally stopped and then every other month I will bleed heavy for a few days and it continues on and on I have gained so much weight off of this shot it just makes my body feel funny. I wont' be continuing this shot! Don't take the shot. | 4 |
FOR ANXIETY - I've been on 30mg Celexa for years and am switching to Viibryd to try to get past the libido issues (i.e. lack thereof). I was pretty nervous after reading all the reviews of side effects. I started on 5mg (still on 30mg Celexa) with a bagel and cream cheese -- no side effects!
It's weird to say this about an SSRI, but I almost immediately noticed a change in my anxiety. Like, within a day. I no longer am living "in the future," very much more "in the moment." It's kind of bizarre. So far so good!
Only side effect so far: Foggy feeling the first day, but has improved since then. | 7 |
I began taking metoprolol about 2 months ago, 25 mg daily. I had a hard time getting used to it. Stupidly, I stopped taking it after the first week, I ended up feeling so bad I had to go to the ER. Since then all my problems have been side-effects. A few hours before I am to take my next dose I begin to feel depressed, very cranky and angry and generally just awful. Once I take the medicine though those feelings tend to go away. It also upsets my stomach and I have had a mild loss of appetite. I have also noticed that some foods taste different. I am also having a problem staying asleep, but I seem to fall asleep easily. So I am up and down all night. I am not happy on it so I will be asking my doctor for something else. | 6 |
Great medication, worked like magic for me. However, the major side effect that makes me stop it is the weight gain aspect. It makes me eat all the time and have cravings to sugar all day long. I have been on and off Remeron for the last 5 years and the only reason that I am off it is the weight gain. I have tried many many medications but nothing worked for me. Remeron is the only anti-depressant that gives me back my life. | 9 |
I had been on Tri-Sprintec for a year and a half after switching from Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo because of the cost. I only had to stop taking it because after all of this time I started having bad breakthrough bleeding. I couldn't believe it after over a year! I did experience weight gain and an increase in appetite earlier, but it went away after the first couple of months. Overall I really liked Tri-Sprintec until the last two months. | 6 |
I've been taking bupropion xl 150 mg daily for 5 days now, for anxiety. I have noticed an increase in energy. I also don't binge eat as much. I'm a stay at home mom, so i was always back and forth to the kitchen. No anxiety issues yet. I also take 0.50 mg of Xanax at night to help me sleep. I've been battling sleep problems for a while, so it helps. | 5 |
I've been on Trintellix for 6 months and this pill has been a miracle for me! I was on Wellbutrin for 5 months prior, but it ended up giving me anxiety so I switched. I've had depression for over a decade and nothing really took it away -- I did therapy, changed my diet, exercised.. I still felt grey, lifeless and didn't care much if I died. My depression was never overwhelming sadness, it was quite the opposite: I felt nothing. Nothing gave my pleasure. I was just a robot doing what I had to do. It worked quite quickly, about 3 weeks after I started. I will always have depression, but I'm able to cope now. I no longer feel like life is meaningless.. I now do things just for the sake of it. I finally enjoy normal events like everyone else. | 8 |
Used gel for 5 days. The smell was gone the next morning. Still continued to use it for the remaining 4 days. It made everything so much better. I'm glad they have this treatment. | 9 |
I fell over a year ago and have had chronic back pain ever since. I have bulging discs in L3,4 and 5, degenerating discs, and spinal stenosis. I have tried Norco, which no longer works. I recently tried Nucynta (no pain relief and very tired side effects), so I am sticking with the Opana. Overall it does a pretty good job with pain. I just feel like my tolerance is building up over the 9 or so months I have been taking it. I take 20 ER first thing in the morning, and 10 mg IR one or two more times during the day. I still take Norco for breakthrough pain, but even that doesn't seem to touch the pain anymore... I recommend Opana for pain relief and I can still work with a clear head! | 8 |
I am on my 7th day at Pylera and so far everything is good. Yes I feel a little bit tired, had a few headaches especially in the midfrontal head and I had the metallic taste every morning; however, I've been eating better. I had some diarrhea the first days and now my stools are better. It is annoying to take 12 pills at day and be on top of schedules. I also take probiotic yogurt even though my gastroenterologist did not told me about it. I hope this works. !! | 7 |
This medicine seemed to be helping with my anxiety somewhat, but I had to stop taking it because it was making me extremely forgetful! I would forget simple things, like my daughter had to go to school, what I had for lunch, just things you shouldn't forget. I felt in a fog..was very strange. I'm currently looking for another medication to help with my anxiety and depression, so far no luck :( | 2 |
I have been on kolonopin for almost a year now & it has been an absolute life saver! I had horrible panic attacks, scared to drive, couldn't even go shopping without getting dizzy and anxious. Anxiety has taken over my life, the panic attacks are so scary I thought I was going to die. I'm very greatful to have this medicine. I've heard of problems with dependency but I don't know what I'd do without it, I'm also on zoloft & I feel like I have my life back! | 9 |
I have been taking Levoxyl for 3 months and my blood tests have gone down from 110 to 65 it's still not normal still under active thyroid. Half my hair has fallen out in the 3 month period. My stomach hurts and the Dr said no Pepcid or antacids for 4 hours after taking the medication. My joints and muscles hurt all of the time and I have insomnia. I think I may be adapting to the meds as I no longer have to spend half the day in the bathroom. Diarrhea has lessened but stomach cramps persist. I was just told I need to increase the Levoxyl to 075 mg. I'm terrified I may end up bald with an ulcer | 5 |
I started the patch on Friday.I felt fine Friday night, I woke up Saturday morning and felt okay, as the day progressed, my nausea got worse. Woke up Sunday feeling okay but around 11pm the nausea came back, I had a headache and my saliva was really thick. I went to bed that night feeling horrible not getting much sleep. Monday I woke up feeling extremely lethargic, I ended up having to leave work early because I thought I was going to pass out. I went home and slept most of the day, Tuesday morning spent by the toilet and called my doctor. Who told me to take it off if it continued, I just took it off 30 minutes ago and I already feel better. | 1 |
After one pill I felt depressed and could not sleep that night. I decided to stop taking the medication and will have it replaced with good old Amoxicilin. | 2 |
I had migraines all my life until I was put on Inderal-what a miracle. | 9 |
I've had it for almost 2 years and have not became pregnant...so yes, it is effective..at a cost. My sex drive is gone and it's making my life horrible! My moods are ridiculous. I have depression, anxiety irrability. Patience...what patience?! My weight is up and down I feel bloated. I get pregnancy symptoms; cravings. Really bad headaches and abdominal pain. I thought it would eventually subside but NOPE! Less than a week until removal...so so happy! | 9 |
Changed my life. Anxiety is gone, and because of that my depression. Loving life anxiety free is amazing. Can't believe I waited this long is my only regret. | 9 |
I started taking Lexapro about 2 1/2 years ago. I had gone to my doctor because I was having perimenopausal symptoms, the worst of which was not sleeping. I would have several days in a row where I couldn't sleep. I was also having trouble controlling my anger. The out of control rage was so unlike me.
Lexapro has been wonderful for me. I take 10 mg once a day. I take it in the morning. I am not tired during the day, but now I sleep great at night. I also have much better anger-control. No more rages. | 9 |
Having had a complete hysterectomy when I was young, I'd been a very long-time Premarin user until diagnosed with breast cancer. I had to stop taking Premarin. And I was back into the hot flashes, until the oncology department staff recommended Effexor. The first capsule (37.5 mg) made me woozy, but stopped the hot flashes immediately! I lessened my dose by splitting open the capsules, and gradually built up a tolerance. I now take one capsule in the morning and one in the evening, with no wooziness and no hot flashes. I can lead a normal life and am extremely grateful | 9 |
I know this is a process, but it sucks. I'm now taking 40 mg of Prozac and it literally does nothing for me. I started with Zoloft, and at least that was an appetite suppressant Both Zoloft and Prozac just make me tired, which is the opposite of what I'm looking for. My goal is to gain energy and be able to do...anything...other than sleep. | 0 |
I recently had a lumbar disectomy on my L4, L5 and L5-S1. I have had terrible nausea and motion sickness after anesthesia in the past to the point of losing consciousness on my way home. I made sure to ask for something to keep me from feeling so terrible, if they could. Aside from IV medications provided, they also put the Scopolomine patch on me. It has done WONDERFUL things! I have had no nausea or motion sickness. I have been really sleepy but, other than that, I couldn't be happier! My doctor said I can take off the patch tomorrow and I will be leaving it in place until then :) | 9 |
This medication helped me get my life back. The first 2 months were rough with side effects, I stuck with it like my doctor recommended I do and they all went away! | 8 |
Celexa helped me immensely with my social anxiety. It completely changed my personality for the better. I finally felt confident and stopped having frequent anxiety and panic attacks.
The only downside to taking this drug was that it was a bit too good at reducing my anxiety. I gained a total of 80 pounds in the first two years of taking it. I used to be obsessed with my weight, weighing myself multiple times a day and having anxiety attacks over it. Celexa took away my insecurities, but at a major cost to my physical health.
I was on Celexa for 7 years and only decided to try something else because I was having difficulty becoming motivated to lose weight, and found that it was not helping me enough with depression. | 7 |
My vagina has now experienced what hell is like. I'm certain this product is made from straight gasoline and the applicator is the lighter. The first and last time I treat a yeast infecrion using OTC medications. I don't think a firehose can put out the fire I am experiencing. Thanks for nothing Monistat 3 day. | 0 |
I'm 15 and I've had severe sweating problems since I was in 5th grade. I'm writing this as I sit here on my third consecutive night of applying the product. I can say that since I've started using it, I've had minimal sweating during the day. Definitely not enough to leave the dark sweat circles anymore. I can say goodbye to sweat shirts in summer. However, for the first few hours after applying the product to my underarms each night, I get the worst pins-and-needles-itching-and-burning feeling I've ever felt in my life. It's so painful that it actually causes me to sweat for an hour or so after applying it, and I find it absolutely impossible to sleep. I'll be heading back to the doctor to see if she can give me anything to relieve it. | 6 |
My son had a severe skin infection so my doctor gave him this medicine. He took it immediately on a empty stomach. He had just got home from Doctor's office. It made him sick so he threw up. I called the Doctor's office and told them what happeened and they told me to not give it to him anymore. It wasn't worth the side effect for my son. | 0 |
This has worked wonders for me. Brought my A1C down to 5.4 in no time. Love it. No side effects. Easy to use and simple once a week. | 9 |
I'm a cancer survivor and promethazine was prescribed to me during the time when I was having chemotherapy and radiation. I was very nauseated at the time. My doctor prescribed me the promethazine and it really worked. Plus i got some sleep. | 9 |
I'm on day 10 taking the pylera capsules. I'm counting down till tonight when I finish all the meds. My experience was having mood swings and not liking to take the capsules didn't like how I was feeling. I'm hoping this nightmare is almost over with. | 3 |
I've been taking Tri-Sprintec for 2 years and the only time I experienced any side effects was the first month and it was nausea around my period. But since then my periods have been like clock work and light, I haven't gotten pregnant, my acne is totally under control, and my breasts have increased a little. This is the best I've ever taken. | 8 |
I have been taking linzess for three weeks. I have to get off it..I have been having terrible head pain. Feels more like I'm having vessel problems. I'm not going to risk having an aneurysm for a pill. I was scared this morning as the pain was almost unbearable. | 2 |
Very good medicine for treating symptoms but very difficult to discontinue usage. | 7 |
I take Flexeril with Loratab 7.5/500 due to a neck injury and spinal fusion of the C5/C6 Cervical Vertibrae | 4 |
I had INTENSE period cramps and always had heavy periods that would last 3-5 days. The tri-spintec helped with a cramps and I have been on this medication for almost two years now, I have no sex drive and mild depression along with bad weight gain and I play soccer and run 3.5 k almost every practice still couldn't loose weight. And the main reason I got it was to help with cramps and chance of cyst on ovaries, now it doesn't help with cramps anymore and I'm not happy, I'm switching to kyleena implant. Overall it was an ok method, never used it for actual birth conrtol, so no idea if it works effectively that way. | 5 |
I just started my second pack of Sprintec. I have had very irregular periods, the longest space between was eight months. After looking up what might cause this and ruling out pregnancy I found something called PCOS. I went to see a docter to get tested. After the results came back she put me on this. I got my period right on time with the pack. Normal length but a little heavier. I haven't experienced any side effects except maybe higher sex drive. | 8 |
I am on my 3rd day of Linzess. No bowel movent at all. . Feel kinda bloated. Hope something happens soon so i dont feel like i have spent all of that money for nothing. Very expensive medication. | 0 |
I took Bactrim for a spider bite that was infected. The nausea and vomiting was unbearable but my wound was almost gone after a day. I think I would rather have vomiting than have an infection. | 3 |
Aside from the heavy periods I have had no issues and my IUD has been in for 5 years | 7 |
Diagnosed 20 years ago with bipolar 1. Struggled for years to try and manage depression with Paxil and anti anxiety meds. The ups and downs were absolutely wearing me out! Finally, Latuda was advised by my therapist for my psych to prescribe. 8 days in and I feel almost normal! I say "almost" since there is that little uncertainty with any new medicine that it will have staying power. So far, so good! | 7 |
Believer despite mixed research I’ve found on the internet about whether this works or not! My 18 m/o 4:00am on Monday had a 103.5 fever which I immediately knew was flu. I rushed him to the ER and was prescribed Tamiflu for his influenza A and prednisone for his breathing. We are at day 7 and he is 100% with a lot of energy. Oxygen levels at ER were 88 now they are 98 but still keeping a close eye as to not miss anything. I was on Tamiflu because I have severe asthma and felt the aches. It took me five days to feel 100% but I’m thankful nothing serious has happened. I lost a cousin to the flu so I don’t mess around once I feel the symptoms! Don’t wait! Take with food! | 9 |
I started breaking out when I got to college. I decided to address the problem before it got worse, even though the acne wasn't that bad. She gave me a prescription for Tretinoin X cream. I put it on every night.
The first week, I felt like someone had rubbed sandpaper across my face. It was AWFUL. My skin was red and irritated and it hurt like hell even when nothing was touching it.
The next week, the pain and irritation slowly subsided. The following, my face erupted in pimples. That lasted into the fourth week. It was worse than it had ever been.
After that, my face magically cleared up. It was amazing. Except for a very few minor spots, my skin is nearly flawless.
The beginning sucks, but STICK IT OUT. You won't regret it. | 8 |
I use Darvocet for severe headaches if/when ibuprofen won't relieve the pain. I can take Darvocet and not have to miss work because of the headaches. The only (minor) side effect is a bit of drowsiness, which goes away after I drink my morning tea. The added benefit of the drowsiness is getting additional headache relief by sleeping (if I am at home). I hope and pray that the FDA's recent recommendation to withdraw it from the market is reconsidered. I would be lost without my Darvocet - I use it infrequently, and only out of necessity, but I wouldn't take any other pain prescription to stop my headache pain. Saying that acetaminophin is as effective as Darvocet is a JOKE; tylenol NEVER relieves my pain when taken alone. | 8 |
Growing up I always had very mild acne that was easily taken care of with a prescription from the dermatologist. I am now 24 and began experiencing severe acne at 23. I began taking doxycyline in July. Like many of the previous reviews state, it takes a SOLID 4-5 months to really see results. I am telling you though, STICK WITH IT! I take 100mg of doxycycline twice a day. I am also using clindamycin after I wash in the morning and at night. I use Retin-A mirco cream 0.05% right now (but started with .025%). The Retin-A played a HUGE factor in this process. I was originally prescribed something else and had my doctor switch me to this. In addition to these prescriptions I use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide in the morning and Cetaphil at night. IT WORKS! | 8 |
Amazing product!! Finally an alternative to needles!! Very convenient to use and it works! I don't understand the negative 1 star reviews. Please try it and judge it for yourself. | 9 |
I took Alli for 2 months when it first came out last year. I didn't experience any effects because I stuck to the diet. Reading what could happen if I went over my fat grams scared me. I stuck to it and went from a size 18 to 14. I stopped taking Alli and during the winter gained some weight back. I recently decided I was going to go back on it. | 6 |
I was on Prozac for 6 months and it was completely horrible for me. Nightmares every night and suicide was way more compelling. I stopped takin the medicine cold turkey. A week ago I got put on 5 mg samples of Brintellix. It has been working fine, but my whole body has been itching like crazy. It's so bad I have blood spots & bruises all on my body. I'm calling my doctor tomorrow to see what they can do about it. | 4 |
I brought the Target Up & Up brand 1 day treatment which has 1200 mg of miconazole. First, wear a pad! Second, it feels like after you take the medication, it has to get worse before it gets better. I'm only on day two discharge is worse that before I took the 1-day treatment. YI are the worse, just plain and simple and their is no way to get rid of it without being uncomfortable. | 4 |
This drug was prescribed to me by my family doctor to help with my ulcerative colitis. I think that after three years of off and on flares with colitis and prednisone usage, I am now steroid resistant. This medicine has worked very poorly for me. At the highest dose of 9 mg, my symptoms are not nearly under control. | 2 |
I too have gone through my whole life with undiagnosed ADHD and I have to say that I have lost so many years of my life both academically and personal. I've been recently diagnosed with ADHD and started Ritalin. I could not tolerate Ritalin. It made me feel like a zombie along with bad headaches. My MD switched me to Adderall and It has changed my life. I wish I would have sought help years ago but I was too embarrassed to seek mental health help. I've been on 30 mg per day of Adderall for 1.5 months now and its worked great except that I think this dose is too low as I have to split the 30 mg into two doses per day. 20 mg works great for me but the other 10 mg I have to take doesn't do much for me. | 9 |
This is the only medicine that has really taken my generalized anxiety disorder away with so many less side effects. I've had GAD just about all my life and am now 36. I have tried Celexa, Lexepro, Zoloft, Cymblata, Effexor, Wellbutrin, Buspar and find most of them are too stimulating or make me so tired with no ambition, or feel like I'm going crazy. I would self medicate and made my life even worse. I have been on Paxil on and off trying to get something that would work but the Paxil is the best for me for anxiety but I lost all my ambition, creativity, interest in just about everything. I would get so tired it's crazy. I would lose my sex drive. | 8 |
I was on this medication for 3 days; on the 4th day, I was having diarrhea every 20 minutes. Totally unable to work; literally couldn't keep anything in. What I would eat would flush out within the hour. I know this is one of the severe side effects, so I did stop medication. Worked great; but man, when you can't work and you can't keep hydrated....there's got to be something in between. Got samples from the doctor, thank goodness, but I hear it is very expensive. | 9 |
I started invokana at 100mg, quickly moved to 200mg, then to 300. I've already been taken off it because of HORRIBLE yeast infections that do not go away, even with Diflucan...very raw and painful! I was also taking 1000mg metformin twice a day, plus Lantus - 26 units at bedtime, which is what I'm taking now. I lost 14 pounds with invokana and since stopping have gained about 4 back, but I also quit smoking. I don't relish the idea of gaining weight back, but I'm really trying to watch what I eat. Since stopping invokana, my numbers have actually started coming down. | 1 |
This is the only medicine that I have taken without any side effects! I love it! After the initial 2 week period of sleepiness it wears off and does what it's supposed. I do miss my mania no lie but I know that it wasn't good for me but it takes most of my depression down and I can enjoy my life. I've been on Lamictal which did nothing for me except give me horrid night terrors, Risperdal made me lactate, and Seroquel gave me frequent urination. I was so happy after struggling with my insurance that they put me back on the Geodon. Been on it for 2 months. | 7 |
I would not recommend this pill for anyone, not any progesterone only pill. Bloating that makes me look 3 months pregnant, constipation, 50 pounds of weight gain in under 2 years that won't exercise off, skin feeling too tight all the time, headaches, fatigue, appetite is weird, constipation and diahhrea, mood swings, hot and cold flashes, and a never ending period. Medical staff all say it's normal and can't be the pill...so it's all in my head. I stopped this pill 2 nights ago and lost a third of my stomach as the bloating is decreasing.
Stay away from these pills! | 0 |
I took 1 Treximet pill in Jan. of 2012 and a 1/2 the following day. My migraines almost faded away for the last year. Throughout the 2012 year I still had small achey headaches, but nothing like before I put Treximet in my system. It is now a year later and I had my first migraine last week. I still have the same prescription from last year, so I don't have to buy anymore. I cut my caffeine to almost nothing and lots of natural sunlight. My headaches are fading out but I am going to take my yearly pill. I think this pill is worth every penny. Take this pill and find something to keep you busy. | 9 |
This is my second go around with Chantix -- the last time being 7 or so years ago. I'm on my second day with no smoking, (9th day on drug) and I feel like I have more energy, and generally feel like some cloud (no pun) has been lifted -- I haven't felt like this since I was 14 (started smoking a pack a day at 15). I've been a smoker for 30 years. I fear I'm on some kind of "pink cloud" that addicts often refer to. I've had some strange dreams, and had trouble falling asleep last night -- but aside from that, no other side effects. I'm hoping the dreams don't turn into nightmares, as they were so terrible 7 years ago when I first tried Chantix, that I had to stop. | 8 |
I'm on day 4 of 50 mg of Topamax, and am supposed to up it to 100mg on the 7th day. I've not had a migraine but the side effects are draining me. I have headaches almost everyday and they usually turn into a migraine. But so far in the 4 days on Topamax I've only had to take one triptan and it worked ASAP. I hope I can hang in there. I'd like to lose some weight too! | 4 |
I've been on Tri-Sprintec for about 3 weeks now. It definitely has it's pros and cons. First, I'll start by saying that I was put on this pill for abnormal uterine bleeding which came with THE WORST cramps EVER. So, doc prescribed me this and my mood swings have gone, there's no cramps, and the bleeding finally stopped after months. So, I'm assuming it's starting to regulate my cycle. BUT - I am experiencing the nausea and fatigue. I go to school FT and work FT so I seriously hope it ends, because I can't afford to miss either of those important parts of my life. Overall, it does the job as far as the bleeding and mood swings are concerned, but may not be worth the side effects I'm experiencing if they persist much longer. | 5 |
started on 10mg for 1 month had nausea and dry mouth, but nausea started to go away, still having depression and some anxiety. then doc went up to 20mg. I been on 20mg for almost two weeks. I been having nausea all day, severe acid reflux, severe indigestion and really bad upset stomach. not sure if this is related but if it is, I cant wait to stop this medicine. | 1 |
I love the very mild side effects and works well. | 9 |
After going to ER with afib, diagnosis was thyroid. Was put on Pradaxa for afib and also had thyroid removed. The most noticable side effect is heartburn. As a result of thyroid removal, I MUST take calcium. Asked the pharmacist what I can take for heartburn whle taking Pradaxa and he said nothing with calcium in it. He advised Pepcid AC since it doesnt have calcium in it. Said not to take tums or other antacids because they contain calcium. Pepcid works great. However I still have to take calcium so am sure to keep Pepcid AC on hand. | 6 |
I wanted to share my experience because I know reading these reviews helped. I had sex around 2 am the last day of my period. He did come inside me, no condom, and I'm not on birth control... Dumb I know. So the next morning I purchased the one step plan b. I started to bleed again and it lasted for about 4 days. I didn't really experience bad symptoms, however I did get extremely bloated and I did have sore breasts. I started my period 5 days early. I was scared and stressed out of my mind. It did work for me. I hope this situation helps someone out there. | 9 |
Got my IUD last week. Insertion took about 4 minutes total. It felt like an extended pap smear with a few uncomfortable pinches and mild cramps. I had mild cramping for the next several days and no spotting. I found it uncomfortable to sit up for first 2 days so I was glad that I took the day off work to rest. probably the worst side effect has been the fatigue and feeling a bit more emotional than usual. I'm hoping that will lessen once I get used the hormones. One word of advice: Since you don't know how your body will react I think it's good to take the day off afterwards. If nothing else, it's good to pamper yourself for making a smart decision for your sexual health. Overall, this has been a positive experience. | 8 |
I started using Epiduo and it was working perfectly. Then one day around my eyebrows started to hurt then the next day the skin was peeling. It wasn't sunburn for sure because there was no sunshine for days. I put the lotion on it and it stung. Three days later my skin is still peeling, it hurts when I touch it, and my acne is back. | 2 |
Whomever is reading my experience I just wanted to first off say that Plan B is absoultly phenomenal and worked 100% (in my case) I usually get my period on the 12-14th of the month, had unprotected sex on November 5 and 6, took the pill on the 7th and got my period around my usual time (November 14 on the dot). I experienced barely any side effects right after taking the pill, aside from a mild side effect (slight dizziness for less than 10 minutes) but aside from the dizziness, the point is that it worked! I was so relieved when I got my period. So dont you worry girl ! Dont stress this pill is great and works! Its not a scam, its not a lie and it doesnt claim false information about anything. Thankyou Plan B ! | 9 |
I have been very impressed. I was taking 10-12 Norco on a daily basis for pain control. This is my third week and I am now taking the 30 mg. I am taking very little Norco now for breakthrough pain. I am less groggy and have better concentration. It did take about a week to get used to the new medicine. All I wanted to do was sleep for that week. Now the only issue is the constipation which is brutal. Although some Senna and Miralax work well.
I am actually thrilled with how much better I feel. It is like suddenly waking up and being alive to participate in life again. WOW | 8 |
I had my thyroid irradiated in 2005 due to Grave's disease caused by Hep C treatment (Ribivirin & Interferon). At first I saw an endocrinologist that prescribed Armour Thyroid but loss of job and insurance forced me to go to a free clinic, where I receive Synthroid. The clinic doesn't seem to understand the difference between experiencing low thyroid levels from naturally occurring hypothyroidism, & complete loss of thyroid. My NP says to me, incredulously, "You take an awful lot of thyroid!", & at that time I was only taking 75mcg a day. Finally after three years of 75 to 100mcg, when I felt absolutely crazy (tired, confused, hair loss, cranky, paranoid, angry, enormous weight gain), she now has me on 150mcg which seems not perfect but better. | 8 |
I have been taking Loestrin for about 11 months now and I haven't had any side effects except that I never get my period at all, and I would like to have it for at least a day so I could know for sure that I'm not pregnant. Otherwise I have lost weight and my acne is way better. I don't plan on switching anytime soon! | 8 |
I am doing Adipex as well as Medifast. Medifast is hard to stay in fat burn state because I cheat now and then, but now with Adipex added I have no cravings or urge to eat until the end of the day and since it's been working so well I choose healthy meals. I started at 161 on Oct. 26, 2015 and today Nov. 2, 2015 I'm already down to 157. My doctor said I am not obese but I am overweight due to PCOS. PCOS is awful trying to loose weight and so far the Adipex is the only steady thing that fits my lifestyle. I don't always have time to meal prep which is also why Medifast is great. 100 calories 5 times a day and 1 lean and green meal that adds up to around 300-400 calories so 800-900 calories a day. I split the pill half in the am and half @ 12 | 9 |
I had the birth control placed for two reasons. 1. I have irregular heavy periods normally 2. I am being treated for 2 brain tumors and am on seizure medication as well as blood pressure medication. Because of this I do not want to get pregnant while on all these medications.
So far I love it. No side effects and not one period since it was placed. | 9 |
My doctor gave me a 30 day trial of Strattera with incrementing doses each week. It started with 10mg and the last week was 60mg. I didn't really notice a positive difference with any dosage but I did have an extremely detailed and horrific dream the first two nights but after that my sleeping was normal. As far as side effects other than the two night terrors I was slightly constipated. It took a lot more effort to make myself do #2. I'm currently on Adderall XR and it seems to do the trick. | 0 |
I get cold sores about every other month. I went to my Dermatologist and she gave a prescription for Sitavig. It sticks on your gum which is weird and takes getting used to, but she told me it is supposed to make you have fewer outbreaks. Sure enough, I went 5 months before my next one. When I saw her next I did complain that it took long time to dissolve. She said that was part of what made it work so well. Not sure how, but I will never go back to using my valtrex. | 8 |
I've been on it for almost a month and also am using the scale down program along with my fitness pal, i started out at 5'11 and 232 lbs I am now down to 215 lbs. If you change your diet, stick to your calories ( I started out 1500 calories a day and stopped all soda) I am not consuming no more than 1430 calories a day and as I lose it changes my calories to less and less, I recommend this for anyone that has willpower and the desire to have a healthier lifestyle. I'm fixing to be getting my second bottle filled. I'm so excited. | 9 |
