137,795 | Enbrel | juvenile rheumatoid arthritis | "I am 21 and have been fighting severe rheumatoid arthritis since I was 17, spending most of the past year in bed. I've been on Enbrel 5 weeks and I've been experiencing no pain relief, just constipation and lack of sleep. " | 3 | March 18, 2014 | 6 | 42 |
55,021 | Bupropion / naltrexone | obesity | "I began contrave on 6/14/2016. Weighing in at 222 - I weighed in this past Sunday at 215. I am also using weight watchers and I count everything that I eat. I believe with the these two together I am finding success." | 10 | June 28, 2016 | 19 | 42 |
208,254 | Oseltamivir | influenza prophylaxis | "I had bought this drug ONLINE for a trip to China. Never tried it before. Was concerned about the nausea and/or missed the short initial window for starting the course. Returned from a cross country flight and within five days had a bad sore throat. Following directions, I took first dose within 24 hours AFTER eating a meal. No nausea. Day Day 4 I still feel sick - sore throat, sore neck by ears, hoarse, coughing, headache - but all are bearable and I can function. I imagine it would have been much worse w/o the drug. I forgot to wipe down airline seat and environs on the last leg of the trip. Never again!" | 9 | July 11, 2016 | 0 | 115 |
86,363 | Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate | bowel preparation | "Suprep Bowel Prep doesn't taste as horrible as the GoLightly did; but that's not saying there's much of an improvement.
It certainly works quickly; approximately 20 minutes. Then it works frequently." | 8 | November 27, 2011 | 30 | 31 |
151,666 | Chantix | smoking cessation | "Chantix was terrible for me. Made me so nauseous I could not get out of bed. For me it gave me headaches and made me feel "hungover" all day long. Also I could not sleep more than 2 hours a night. Now it did make me not want to smoke but I can't be under those conditions all day everyday. So after 9 days I'm stopping." | 2 | November 10, 2014 | 18 | 66 |
104,558 | Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel | abnormal uterine bleeding | "I'm twenty years old and was prescribed Aviane for my anemia. I was so low in hemoglobin because I had heavy and frequent bleeding (2 heavy periods in a month!) It's only been a month, but so far, ZERO weight gain (I'm a model! I take my body image very seriously), no breakthrough bleeding, no nausea, no breast tenderness and my skin is so much clearer. My period lasted 4 days and was manageable for the first time in my life. I'm hoping that I don't develop side effects later on. I'm very satisfied and I'd like to stay on this product, I don't want to switch!" | 9 | September 21, 2011 | 5 | 107 |
204,007 | Suvorexant | insomnia | "Wanted to give a rating of 0, but that is not an option! My diagnosis is Primary Insomnia. Both my doctor and I though this would be the medication that would finally help. Well, it did not. Tried 10mg for 3 nights with no luck. Doctor upped me to 20mg. Tried 20mg for 3 more night and still did not work. By the end of 6 days using this junk with so little sleep I was fed up! Back to alternating my old standbys as they are inexpensive and effective. My old standby's are Dalmane (flurazepam) and Luminal (phenobarbital). My insurance did not cover the Belsomra, the trial voucher was only good for 10 tablets so the rest was paid out of pocket" | 1 | July 12, 2015 | 37 | 123 |
63,743 | Epiduo | acne | "Had terrible acne on my chin and used this product on it, it took a few weeks to work but now it works amazing and I have no zits anywhere, and if I feel one coming on I just put some on it and its gone the next day." | 9 | August 9, 2012 | 11 | 49 |
210,407 | Linzess | constipation | "I have had irritable bowel syndrome with severe constipation for 16 years and this is the first medicine that I can say has truly worked for me. On the medicine I have diarrhea, bloating and a lot of gas but it definitely cleans me out. Hope to get past the gas and bloating once it gets in my system good. Only been taking it for 3 days." | 10 | April 14, 2014 | 76 | 67 |
197,835 | Onglyza | diabetes, type 2 | "I have been diabetic for 5 years and recently came off insulin to try Onglyza and have been on it for 8 days. On insulin my fasting was on average 120 but have not been able to get my fasting below 175 on this medicine. I still take metformin and would like to see if this works and not go back on insulin. I have noticed I have less appetite on Onglyza and have lost 2 pounds and have not had any other side effects. I am hoping the medicine just needs to build up in my system. Any suggestions to bring down my fasting number would be appreciated." | 5 | January 5, 2011 | 36 | 109 |
158,792 | Methylphenidate | adhd | "My son is 10 years old. I suspected he had ADD when he was 6 and the teacher kept telling me he was spacing out in school, but he is also so smart I decided maybe the work was just too easy and he was bored. In 4th I couldn't take the complaints (almost daily)and had him tested and he was diagnosed with ADD and given Concerta. I can only tell you that his math teacher sent me home a note on the day he started medication to ask where I got my new son from, she could not believe it. She said he even went in during his lunch break to catch up on some work. He lost his appetite for the first week or so, but regained it and hasn't had trouble sleeping at all. He is happier, his teachers are happier and I am HAPPIER! Thank You CONCERTA." | 10 | September 9, 2009 | 205 | 151 |
183,931 | Natazia | menorrhagia | "I started taking this pill for breakthrough bleeding 4 months ago. Since I had my children I have not been able to take any oral contraceptive pills to help with the constant bleeding. I even tried Mirena for 1 year. The first 2 months were like magic. Now I am having excessive bleeding on my 3rd week of pills and couple of days of spotting when I should have my period. I don't have any emotional or physical side effects, but Natazia is expensive." | 4 | August 7, 2012 | 3 | 84 |
166,677 | Levonorgestrel | birth control | "I just had my Skyla IUD inserted 4 days ago. On the day of the procedure I had my period and took 800 mg of Ibuprofen 40 mins before. I have to say it did not help one bit. It was the most terrible and awkward 5 mins of my life. It felt as if someone was stabbing me from the inside. Luckily I did not shed one tear and drove home from the facility with the most horrible crucial cramps I've yet felt. Since Ibuprofen did not work for me I had to get something a bit stronger and took 2 Midol 500 mg pills which did the job and a heating pad. My cramps and period were gone by the next day. As of now I feel bloated, tired and somewhat moody. I'm sticking it out for at least 3 to 6 months to see how my body adjust to it." | 7 | August 20, 2016 | 1 | 153 |
77,552 | Cephalexin | bladder infection | "I took cephalexin 500 for ten days following a 5 day stay at my local hospital (with IV antibiotics) for a bladder infection. It did nothing for my infection. But I did get a few nasty side effects. Diarrhea, nightmares, and muscle pain. This medication did not work for me." | 1 | May 12, 2016 | 26 | 50 |
55,159 | Bupropion / naltrexone | obesity | "(continued) So I went to my Dr. asked to try the medication. I have to say, just because it works for someone you know doesnt mean it is gonna work for you. You lose wt or you lose money, either way, stay positive for your self and for those that had good experience. I am on my 3 day. scared at 1st, cause I am taking other med for anxiety, depression and concentration. I have not had an issue with any side effects. I do make sure I drink water. I have to force myself to eat. training myself to put snacks in front of me. So, definitely curbs the appetite. coming from a woman who is not afraid to eat. I had a problem eating. I would eat till I was miserable and bloated. so far not even close. hope to see good results. working out 40min/day" | 9 | March 4, 2016 | 24 | 148 |
72,868 | Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone | birth control | "This is the only birth control I've been on and I'm sticking to it because it works really great for me! The first three months or so I had no sex drive - but it passed so it wasn't a permanent side effect. It's been at least seven months now and I get hardly any cramps, whereas before I used to get them so bad that I'd fall on the floor in pain. Hardly any period (lasts about three days and I can use liners for two days, regular sized pad for one day) whereas before I had a really awful, heavy seven-eight day period. I also have really clear skin now too. I'll get maybe two tiny pimples in total nearing my period and that's it. It's fantastic.
And of course, it's also done it's job as a birth control pill." | 9 | July 30, 2015 | 11 | 142 |
19,790 | Pregabalin | ibromyalgia | "Made me so dizzy that I could not walk down stairs or across rooms where I had nothing to hold on to. Made me sick to my stomach too, and offered no relief from fibromyalgia symptoms." | 1 | November 7, 2009 | 29 | 36 |
149,004 | Mirena | abnormal uterine bleeding | "I'm still bleeding at Week 10 post insertion...not spotting, bleeding. I have the sorest breasts all the time and talk about mood swings. 10 weeks of PMS is too long. Giving it to 3 months then may have it taken out." | 2 | September 19, 2015 | 7 | 41 |
22,217 | Baclofen | temporomandibular joint disorde | "I have moderate/severe TMJ and I get a lot of relief from Baclofen. It's not indicated as a treatment for TMJ but it works for it very well. The muscles in my face, and jaw area are very tight and the tightness causes jaw pain and tension type headaches. Previous to trying this Baclofen, I tried Cyclobenzaprine, Orphenadrine, Tizanidine, and they all seemed to achieve their "muscle relaxant" effects by making me tired. I take 20mg of Baclofen at bedtime, and It relaxes my muscles very well and helps me sleep. The muscles in my face become less tight and I do not grind my teeth as much and my jaw feels so much better. Also, the painful muscle spasm I suffer from are reduced. The drug improves my quality of life greatly. I recommend it." | 8 | November 22, 2014 | 26 | 136 |
200,630 | Varenicline | smoking cessation | "I have smoked for 38 years. I liked smoking. I never let my cigarettes run out. They were a friend. I could not imagine life without cigarettes. Chantix changed that. Chantix made cigarettes less important to me. I dwindled down to one cigarette a day over 6 weeks and when the pack ran out, I didn't buy another one. I had the crazy dreams, brief nausea and I also became terse, impatient, and snappy. When I started the 8th week I decided to cut down to one pill a day to wean myself off the drug. I am still smoke free. My mood has improved. I feel more like myself only I don't want to smoke. If I can Quit, You can Quit. Try it. LIVE BETTER WITHOUT CIGARETTES. GOOD LUCK!" | 10 | May 13, 2009 | 121 | 131 |
198,799 | Depo-Provera | birth control | "I've had a very good experience with this form of birth control. No bleeding at all, no side effects, not an issues what so ever. I've been takin it for about 9 months now and feeling fine" | 10 | January 13, 2017 | 6 | 37 |
42,279 | Dexilant | gerd | "10 years had daily heartburn. Tried every prescription and over the counter medicine with minimal relief. Continued to have daily breakthrough heartburn. Ended up eating tums like candy, then took Dexilant, 5 days later realized I hadnt taken any tums and not one episode of heartburn. This is an awesome new medication!" | 10 | May 23, 2010 | 87 | 52 |
170,261 | Quetiapine | insomnia | "All my life, a typical night would start with 1 to 2 hours laying in bed before falling asleep, and then waking several times with trouble getting back to sleep. My bedroom has light blocking curtains plus a white noise machine, but I still had trouble getting more than five hours of sleep. My Doctor has prescribed Ambien CR, Rozerem, Sonata, Restoril and Trazadone. I have tried Benadryl and Melatonin/Valerian pills but nothing worked well or long term until I tried Quetiapine. I take 50mg 30 minutes before bedtime and I sleep a good 6 to 8 hours daily! I have more vivid dreams but no nightmares, and 3 years with no loss of effectiveness and no weight gain! A good dose of morning caffeine and I have no lingering grogginess either!" | 10 | September 17, 2016 | 63 | 132 |
17,436 | Ethinyl estradiol / etonogestrel | birth control | "Giving it two stars because it does serve its purpose- birth control. But it's so not worth the side effects I had for the first week after putting it in place. I had horrifying dreams on the 3rd night and woke up in terror. I was mostly depressed and hated people around me. I was easily irritated by small things. I was negative and wanted to be alone. After noticing the change in my mood I took it out five days later. Just in half a day, I have noticeable improvement in my mood. I wanted to be around my friends again. I'm happier. I wouldn't recommend this form of birth control to any of my friend." | 2 | February 24, 2017 | 13 | 117 |
75,031 | Nitrofurantoin | bladder infection | "Been taking this medication for almost a week. I felt relief almost immediately after taking the medication. Right now, after six days of taking it I'm up with the runs. Ughhhh, stomach cramps, and runny bowel motions." | 6 | September 22, 2009 | 12 | 37 |
177,936 | Duloxetine | depression | "So far this medicine has been working great for me. Not only for my mild depression but also for my joint pain. I was not aware it was used for this however, told my physician that I was experiencing less joint and muscle pain. This is when he informed me Cymbalta was also used for pain. I cannot afford $50.00 a month. I will have to go back to my other medicine, which is less effective for joint pain but the same for depression." | 8 | January 21, 2013 | 47 | 84 |
4,778 | Belviq | obesity | "First week 7lbs, a lot of energy and fall right to sleep at night and stay asleep. Only negative is I can only take one or I experience urinary tract infection like symptoms. I'm excited to weigh in the morning, it will have been 14 days. I LOVE Belviq!" | 10 | January 30, 2015 | 106 | 49 |
24,548 | Polyethylene glycol 3350 with electrolytes | bowel preparation | "i am in the UK and taking this for a colonoscopy at 1.30 pm today. Took the first litre at 6.30 pm yesterday and it worked really quickly. I don't send a straw to drink and drank it all in half an hour. Up at 6 am today for the 2nd lot which is harder to drink - maybe because I really want a cup of ta and a biscuit!! Just starting my last glass now and having to intersperse with plain water but it really isn't that bad. Don't believe all the horror stories." | 8 | July 29, 2015 | 16 | 95 |
152,497 | Ciprofloxacin | urinary tract infection | "I am allergic to caffeine and spicy foods that give me all kind urinary infections. However, just one Cipro pill makes the pain just disappear! I have no known side effect from Cipro. Cipro is simple awesome!" | 10 | August 8, 2009 | 69 | 37 |
159,847 | Bactrim | sinusitis | "At first, I found myself with more energy and simply lost my appetite, which didn't bother me.
Then, the second day, I suffered nausea and vomiting. I discontinued the medicine on the second day, but the nausea and vomiting continue." | 2 | April 16, 2015 | 7 | 40 |
22,771 | Lidocaine | pain | "While I've gotten very helpful joint pain and referred pain relief from other brands, the Mylan brand patches are a waste of time and money. The backing is thin but stiff and unsuitable for anything but a flat area, obviously they made the "adhesive" layer thin to cheap out on the amount of lidocaine and the difference in pain relief is immediately noticeable. And then they won't stick. The web site, but not the box, says to press on the patch for better stick, but then pretty much admits you will need tape.
I only am out a small copay but my insurer spent over $200 a box on this garbage. I'll have to get an exemption from the quantity limits to have another brand ordered. In the meantime, I hurt more than I should have to." | 1 | January 25, 2016 | 11 | 137 |
57,400 | Oxymorphone | pain | "I have been on pain medicines since 1993 for back pain. I have been taking Oxycontin 40 Mg 3x per day, last month my pain management Doctor said that he was no longer writing for Oxycontin because of it showing up on the streets of our community. He said I had the choices of Morphine, Methadone, or Opana ER. I chose Opana so now I am on 30mg twice a day. The only benefit that I am experiencing is that it takes away the withdrawal symptoms and they don't drop you like when an Oxycontin wears off but for me the pain is still there." | 2 | June 27, 2010 | 27 | 105 |
121,254 | Venlafaxine | anxiety | "If I could give this drug a minus ... I would. The reasons are simple:
- It has mild effects when it comes down to relieving anxiety
- It has profound effects on my sexual function
- It is extremely effective at giving me hell when trying to get off it
- It could be used as an effective drug used to induce vomiting
This drug is truly deplorable in every sense and should not be fit for consumption by human beings." | 1 | August 5, 2016 | 6 | 82 |
193,987 | Dilaudid | pain | "Definitely effective against serious pain. However the side-effect warnings are serious too. This drug suppresses breathing and I was scared the first time I took a single pill. Kept 'forgetting' to breathe. Ever since, I've used a pill splitter to split the pill in half and this has proven a manageable dose. I hardly ever take these, though, because I don't want to become habituated." | 8 | April 18, 2016 | 17 | 65 |
174,450 | Tiotropium | copd, maintenance | "Was diagnosed with COPD Emphysema several years ago.Have been using Spiriva since but still cannot say that I notice any benefit. My GP's, chest nurses, and consultants (9 different ones over the years) maintain that I am benefitting from using it. Do suffer from leg cramps, so will be trying Potassium supplements to see if they help." | 5 | November 10, 2014 | 53 | 57 |
19,565 | Pregabalin | ibromyalgia | "I suffer from fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis and surgically induced menopause. I am 40 years old. I have tried all medicines like Cymbalta, etc. but none really helped. My main issue has been a lack of deep restorative healing sleep as it exacerbates the fibromyalgia pain and inability to exercise. My Rhematologist has given me Lyrica to try and I have to say so far so good. I have only taken 3 doses and already I am getting a better quality sleep. So much so that my husband has noticed my improved overall state of mind. I am a little cloudy the next day but I am hoping this will ease over time. Worth the cost of a cup of coffee a day if it helps!" | 8 | June 17, 2013 | 81 | 125 |
191,180 | Niaspan | high cholesterol | "After a few days of taking this medication, I was awoken in the middle of night with the the warm red rash on my abdomen which was also extremely itchy. After 3 consecutive nights of the same reaction, I discontinued the medicine and called my doctor. He changed my prescription to another cholesterol medicine." | 5 | August 4, 2009 | 33 | 54 |
69,891 | Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone | cough | "As stated Tussionex is expensive. With that said you get what you pay for. I had a cough that kept me up for 3 days. I went to my doctor and he prescribed Tussionex for me. I had 1 teaspoon before bed and woke up 8 1/2 hours later. My cough did not wake me up once during the night. " | 10 | February 17, 2009 | 7 | 61 |
201,027 | Zoloft | major depressive disorde | "Zoloft actually changed my life. It's helped me cope with every day situations in an non reactive way. My thoughts have calmed down and my anxiety is minimal. I've actually lost 15 lbs on Zoloft. I started on 50mg and now I'm up to 200mg per day. I've been on it for about a year now and I like that it doesn't numb everything or make me super emotional or tired. I'm very well balanced. I just wish I could sleep better." | 9 | March 10, 2017 | 14 | 82 |
207,412 | Suprep Bowel Prep Kit | bowel preparation | "I was pleasantly surprised by how well this went. I read the reviews and followed some of the tips. Berry Propel water to mix the medicine with really helped with the taste. It wasn't bad. I chilled it well, and chugged it down. It started to work in 20 minutes. Other than feeling chilled, I was fine. No bad cramping, or bloating. I started at 5:00 P.M. and thought I'd be up all night, but by 9:30 I was able to fall asleep, and only got up once. Took the 2nd dose at 5:30 A.M. the next day. Same results. My procedure was at 11:30, and everything was great! I squeezed lemon juice into the two glasses of water after each dose, and that helped too. This was WAY better than the prep I did ten years ago! Insurance didn't cover, so Dr. gave me med" | 10 | November 9, 2016 | 12 | 146 |
55,339 | Belviq | obesity | "I have taken Belviq since last October and have lost 45 lbs so far! Just need another 15 and I will have reached my weight goal. This is the first prescribed medicine that has worked for me and I am thrilled. You MUST change your eating habits as well as picking an exercise that you like to do while taking Belviq or it will not work as well. Speed walking is my love and my waist has really shrunk. HIGHLY recommend this weight loss medication." | 10 | March 3, 2014 | 50 | 85 |
16,271 | Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone | birth control | "This medicine is horrible for me. The first time I took it, I felt it 20 minutes after. I had random spot pains all over my body, insomnia, throwing up, dizziness, my limbs went numb, and my already diagnosed anxiety and depression got 10x worse. I could not rest, it felt like my body was going 100 mph. I had horrible mood swings and it affected my relationship even though he understood. I felt very angry and hostile I cried over almost anything with terrible migraines and canker sores. I also got blood clots. I am 95 pounds. I would not recommend this to anyone." | 1 | March 15, 2016 | 6 | 105 |
145,903 | Qsymia | weight loss | "I have been on the second lowest of the four doses for 10 weeks and have lost the 10 lbs I gained over the past 5 years. Most importantly, I lost it all on my waist - a reduction of nearly 2 inches. Due to the holidays and the flu I have had more food in front of me and have not been able to exercise as much as normal so I can only imagine what I can do going forward or at a higher dose. This is by far the most effective weight loss medicine." | 10 | February 6, 2013 | 48 | 96 |
54,428 | Bupropion / naltrexone | obesity | "I started Contrave September 19, 17. I've had no side effects. I don't really notice anything different but I won't weight in til the 25th. I have been watching what I eat. My goal weight is 175#. I started at 270# so I have a long way to go. Will keep you updated." | 8 | September 22, 2017 | 18 | 53 |
202,627 | Hydroxychloroquine | rheumatoid arthritis | "I've been on Plaquenil for over 3 months now. It works wonderfully! I combine my treatment with Curcumin & Magnesium baths and I feel like a new woman :-) Side effects I experienced: Nausea & dizziness for the first week or two (I found I needed to take it after a full meal to prevent the nausea). I have also noticed since starting the Plaquenil I seem to sweat profusely. It's annoying, but the benefits far outweigh this little problem. I just wear my gym gear about now... which I did mostly beforehand anyhow :-) Also, it take take a couple months for the Plaquenil to kick in & for me to feel the effects! Don't give up, just give it some time." | 7 | March 26, 2017 | 53 | 123 |
178,842 | Victoza | obesity | "I need to be put on the list for a lung transplant and my Pulmonogist said that I must lose 10 kg in 3 months to have an evaluation.I have been on Victoza for 1 month and have lost 4kg. I started on 0.6 then increased to 0.10 and now I'm on 1.2. Only once did I have nausea and a slight headache. I do not feel hungry and I believe that Victoza works. I was on diabetes medicine tablets and insulin. I am still taking the tablet but have stopped the insulin. And now I'm slowly, very slowly finding the courage to exercise. Keep a positive mind and try to focus and do things that will complimentary weigh loss and a happy life." | 10 | October 16, 2012 | 51 | 124 |
144,758 | Etonogestrel | birth control | "I haven't had one problem with this. I've had it for a year and half and I had my first period the other day. It was very light and only lasted a couple of days. My sex drive didn't change and I haven't gained any weight on it. I personally like it." | 10 | January 31, 2016 | 11 | 52 |
41,393 | Acetaminophen / oxycodone | pain | "I was having terrible back pain from my degenerative disc disease. I started off taking tramadol(ultram), then they switched me to Percocet. That changed my life. After taking it for a few months I could drive again. Now I can go where I want with little or no pain. I still have pain when shopping, which I hate anyway." | 10 | March 23, 2009 | 66 | 59 |
155,754 | Cialis | erectile dysfunction | "Took 20mg Friday 4:30pm. Now 8:00am Sunday still able to easily get rock hard erection like when I was 18. Girlfriend says is best drug ever made. Hahhaha. Expensive, but worth it.." | 10 | May 14, 2017 | 28 | 32 |
96,806 | Ambien | insomnia | "Was having problem sleeping due to Lyrica withdrawal, Took Zolpidem for only 5 days, the first 9 days after going off sleep ok, by day 10 got 4 hrs, day 11 3 hrs, day 12 1 1/2 hrs, OMG, skin burning & tingling can't take this. How much longer must I go through this "Hell", can't stop crying & can't enjoy Christmas. " | 5 | December 21, 2016 | 15 | 63 |
123,551 | Skyla | birth control | "I got my Skyla about 6 hours ago, so this is only in reference to insertion. I almost cancelled 5 minutes before my appointment because of these reviews, and it wasn't bad at all! The slightest cramping for maybe 10 seconds twice during a 5 minute time period. I did start to get cramps when I got home that started somewhat painful but have been getting slowly better. I've never had cramps before with my periods and I don't think they're awful. Only thing I don't like is I can't wear a tampon for 48 hours, I feel very uncomfortable and I'm worried about infection from being too damp (I'm on my period because they suggested I be for insertion). Hoping my bleeding stops as my normal period would, will keep updated." | 7 | June 20, 2017 | 2 | 132 |
37,889 | Septra DS | urinary tract infection | "Septra DS is excellent for UTI. I have been on it for three days with absolutely no side effects. My UTI has cleared up rapidly. My only criticism is that the pills are rather large and very dry that is probably why it is recommended that it be taken with lots of water." | 9 | November 29, 2009 | 29 | 53 |
187,440 | Monistat 3-Day Combination Pack | vaginal yeast infection | "I am having the worst itching/burning but like a past reviewer, I'm assuming that's the medication working. I just don't know what to do to distract myself from the itching and burning. Should've at least tried home remedies first to relieve the yeast infection symptoms. You live and you learn." | 5 | July 3, 2017 | 4 | 50 |

211,781 | Lamotrigine | bipolar disorde | "I moved from quetiapine to lamictal about six weeks ago. I have stopped itching as badly now, and feel quite good. Currently taking 200mgs. I am having trouble sleeping, Here in England Dr doesn't prescribe sleeping pills. I'm very tired in the morning as a result and early evening, then come alive! I feel things better, my anger and irritation has subsided. I have lost a stone in weight in last 8 weeks.. this has helped, so feel more positive. I wish I could relax though." | 8 | January 31, 2017 | 24 | 86 |
28,259 | Lexapro | generalized anxiety disorde | "To make my story short, I suffered from Generalized Anxiety Disorder and severe panic attacks in high school. After a couple of years of psychiatric help (no medicines at the time) I was able to live a complete free panic attack life for more than 13 years. Suddenly, after two important job transfers and a couple of personal set backs, the GAD returned along with severe panic attacks that led to the hospital a couple of times. Anxiety/Panic Attacks became so severe that I was simply not capable of performing my job nor having a social life and took a plane home thinking of quitting. Fortunately, I was convinced by my doctor to take Lexapro (10mg)... what a life changer. Positive effects began to kick in 3 to 4 weeks (activation symptoms did occur for 2 weeks)." | 10 | November 22, 2014 | 66 | 137 |
104,113 | Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel | birth control | "I am 17 years old, 5'1, and 125 pounds when I was originally 105lbs. I started taking Lutera almost exactly 1 year ago. It was my first birth control and the reason I was getting it was because my periods were horrible. There would be days I couldn't go to school because I had to change my pad every couple minutes. Also I planned on being sexually active once it started kicking in. I became sexually active about 3 or 4 months later and it is great with protection. I gained a LOT of weight. I expected to but not this much. It's made me have very low self esteem. ALSO I don't know if it just me or the pill but even though I have been sexually active, it's impossible to have an
orgasm. I want to switch because of the weight gain, but I'm too scared." | 8 | August 25, 2013 | 12 | 148 |
113,371 | Bisacodyl | constipation | "I take Dulcolax when I feel like my bowel system is playing up. Or to avoid serious constipation. I usually take it with a glass of water. But it doesn't help with the cramps, ever. It wakes me up at 6 am if 1 pill is taken between 10 p.m to 11 p.m. Cramps are top bad but the relief is great. Works almost every time for me." | 9 | February 28, 2015 | 35 | 68 |
202,336 | Lithium | bipolar disorde | "I've been on lithium for two months now, and honestly, it's given me my life back. I was treatment resistant for years, until Abilify came out. Unfortunately, that stopped working a few months ago, and in a fit of desperation, my doctor decided to add lithium. I was highly resistant, for many reasons, but I'm so glad I decided to try it. It took a few weeks to start feeling better, plus an increased dosage to 900 mg, but I honestly feel alive now. I'm better than I've been in years. In fact, we've started titrating me off the Abilify, which has had disastrous consequences in the past. I'm quite optimistic about my future now. The only side effect I've had is the tremors. Fingers crossed the nastier side effects stay away, amiright?" | 10 | December 28, 2016 | 36 | 133 |
67,541 | Plan B | emergency contraception | "Plan B did work but I took plan b because I was on the patch it was my week off and me and my boyfriend used protection but unfortunately the condom broke .. in a scare went and purchased plan b about 40+ hours later took it. I felt nausea and cramps - nothing unbearable. My cycle came few days early but when it was my next month cycle it took a little longer than expected it came a few days late in this process did take 2 tests to ensure a negative result. But I finally received my cycle. If u do not have to take it DON'T but its your choice. Don't rely on this pill as it also has bad side effects but continue birth control if you are on it and becareful never know what can happen.. Walmart for $46" | 10 | October 27, 2017 | 1 | 144 |
226,427 | Etonogestrel | birth control | "I LOVE it!!! Yes had a period that lasted 4 months but was very light so can't complain about that. Then after 4 months didn't have a period since. I've has this for 2 years now. Never gained weight either! I do notice I get moody a little easier and once in awhile my breast are sore. I love the fact I don't have to remember to take a pill everyday! Getting it put in was easy and I'm sure getting it out is easy as well." | 10 | July 28, 2015 | 6 | 87 |
126,650 | Eletriptan | migraine | "Have had migraines for about 7 yrs. Seems to have started a while after slipping and falling on my back in the kitchen. Held out arms to break fall and my head tucked slammed back. Headaches so intense you literally will call 911 to get immediate pain relief NOW . Vomiting which intensifies the pressure and blurred vision that is in no way a typical headache. Relpax 40 is the only thing I have ever tried and works. Add a ice pack and a BC powder and it works faster to relieve my pain. Makes me feel much better after a long nap in a dark cold room. Like any other illness it takes a day or so to feel normal again. I have ins. and pay $10 for 10 pills per month with the discount card. Before that I paid $10 per pill. Its truly a miracle med." | 10 | November 3, 2014 | 11 | 149 |
63,389 | Epiduo | acne | "My 14 year old son was prescribed epiduo for his moderate acne about 3 months ago. I myself am 36 and have suffered from acne my whole life (since the 5th grade!!) anyways, I decided to try it with him and I'm so glad I did. At first it made both of our skin break out and was red, itchy, peeling and irritated. So we started using every other night instead (also, only use at night and AVOID EYE AREA!!) After about 2-3 weeks of using epiduo I noticed a dramatic improvement in both of our skin. Now my son may have a few tiny little pimples here or there but nothing like it was before and I don't have any at all! Not only am I pimple free but my melasma/dark spots are almost completely gone!! I highly recommend!!" | 10 | February 21, 2017 | 7 | 140 |
188,504 | ParaGard | birth control | "I just received the Paragard today and wanted to share about the procedure. I'm 30, with 5 kids (just had twins 3 months ago today)I said 'over my dead body I'm getting pregnant again, knowing I'm prone to having twins!'. I told my doc I wanted something as close to being sterile as possible without going under. So, I chose the Paragard. Hormone free and stays for 10yrs, or until you want it removed. The process wasn't painful. But you have to remember, the more kids you have, it's not painful. And, if you just gave birth, it's not as painful either. Of course if you're uterus hasn't been through any changes, it will feel like a big cramp and discomfort. I've spotted so far. I will keep posting on changes every month!" | 6 | July 7, 2016 | 20 | 133 |
198,789 | Depo-Provera | abnormal uterine bleeding | "Omg! DO NOT GET IT IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY. I got my first shot like 3 weeks ago and lost all sex drive and have been bleeding constantly. My partner and I use to sleep together every time we were together and now I can't because of this blood. My hair is falling out too, my face is breaking out, I feel cranky and have no energy, I have no sex drive and the bleeding. This man made drug is clearly no good for us women and should be taken off the shelf!!!" | 1 | May 26, 2017 | 22 | 93 |
85,492 | Ethinyl estradiol / norgestimate | birth control | "I've been on this pill for the past 8 years. I absolutely love it! After having tried 2 different types of birth control pills before I found this one. This is the one for me, it cleared up my acne within a month of taking it, I've had no weight gain or weight loss, no headaches. Normal cramps and a shorter period (4-5 days)." | 10 | January 5, 2015 | 50 | 64 |
2,122 | Metformin | polycystic ovary syndrome | "I have been off and on birth control since 2011 to regulate my period. After being off birth control for 6 months I went to the doctor for refills except this time he prescribed birth control and metformin. I have been taking 500mg a day for the past 5 days and it has been absolute HELL! I feel bloated and weak all day. I feel nauseous all the time which also discourages me from eating. And when I do eat I get stomach aches and occasionally diarrhea. Also I already had sleeping problem but now it's cramps and tossing and turning all night. But I think the worst for me is the bloating, I constantly feel like I just ate a whole cow! Its so uncomfortable! Eventually I'll have to take 1000mg. Hoping the side effects decrease." | 4 | February 21, 2016 | 23 | 137 |
182,105 | Podofilox | condylomata acuminata | "Appears as though it works, but I wasn't warned to be cautious and only apply to affected areas, I am currently suffering from what feels like I have spread my ass cheeks and have been drug at the very least 150 feet across the concrete. My skin is gone, burned, and painful. A simple blast of air from a small farther feels like shrapnel blasting against my skin. Walking is painful, same as bending over; he'll at this point, I hurt from breathing. The only relief I have found has been in applying half a tube of neosporne with pain relief today alone.
I think I could yield the same results by being shot with laser guns.
This pain should be on a poster for safe sex." | 7 | March 15, 2016 | 29 | 127 |
42,302 | Atenolol | high blood pressure | "The longer I was taking this the more breathless I became. My dose was halved and it was great for a while but the breathlessness is creeping back. Bought myself a pill cutter and am going to half it again. Also take amitriptyline and indapamide originally for headaches but now for high blood pressure too." | 2 | May 6, 2016 | 7 | 55 |
20,626 | Nucynta | pain | "I tried this medicine at 50mg up to 4x per day and is very helpful for chronic neck, shoulder pain I have suffered for years. There are no highs and lows like other pain medicines, also had a nerve block injection to area and that removed the pain 100%. I highly recommend it, and a nerve block. It scared me too, but worked." | 9 | April 10, 2013 | 69 | 63 |
122,172 | Venlafaxine | anxiety | "Effexor XR did it's job in balancing me out. I had a significant anxiety and depression problem. I started out with 75mgs, moved up to 150mgs and tried 300mgs. In the end, I settled with 150mgs. At 300mgs, my dreams at night were very, very vivid and real like. They were too much to deal with. And mentally I felt bogged down. I did too with 150mgs but not as much. I didn't notice much in side effects when I started taking it. However, it is true it does affect your sexual drive and experience.
The prescription is fine if you have health and prescription insurance. The drug itself for a 30 day supply is about $180. The company does not offer you any helpful programs to try to reduce the cost. The company no longer offers free samples to my doctor so if and when I might need it due to a lack of funds, I can't get it from them.
I'm trying to come off it and have buzzing zaps dominating my head. As time goes on without the medicine the body feels like it's shriveling up and deals with other irritable side effects. During the time of coming off it, you are very irritable. I have followed my doctors orders of dropping the mgs down to 75 for two weeks. And then taking one capsule every other day after that for two weeks. It's the day in between that is awful, if I don't have one a day. " | 6 | July 23, 2009 | 63 | 252 |
141,747 | Escitalopram | depression | "I have only been taking it for a couple days and I feel a little irritable and I sleep very well. I'm only twenty. But I have postpartum depression, I have had two kids. I hope that after a couple of weeks it starts getting better. I tried Cymbalta but the side effects were bad. I was irritable and could not sleep and I was tied all the time." | 3 | April 4, 2011 | 5 | 69 |
12,089 | Caffeine / ergotamine | migraine | "This is the only medicine that works for my wife. She has tried all of the other migraine type medicines, and none of them work. Years ago she started taking Cafergot, then it was taken off the market and she was hardly able to function. Then after Migergot was available her Doctor prescribed that, and she was like a new person. When Migergot was not available for a few months in 2012 she was miserable again, so we were most thankful when it once again became available. She does not have side effects from it, is able to function normally, and goes to the YMCA almost every day and is able to participate in Yoga, Pilates, strength training, hiking, biking and traveling at age 83. Migergot has been a God Send for her." | 10 | March 10, 2013 | 8 | 133 |
170,252 | Quetiapine | bipolar disorde | "Ive been taking Seroquel/quetiapine for about 4 months now and I feel its definately helped with controlling hypomania as well as helping me to control anxiety. Also, I can keep to a regular sleeping schedule now!
I HAVE LOST WEIGHT since starting to take quetiapine, and I have absolutely no appetite. Before taking this drug, I was scared I'd gain weight (like most people) but it just didnt happen. Rather, I need to remind myself to eat a little throughout the day or I'll have no energy because I just dont feel like eating period.
One more thing: I felt too sleepy to drive after taking my a.m. dose, but after a couple of months the a.m. dose doesn't make me feel too sleepy anymore.
I feel better in general." | 7 | October 2, 2016 | 2 | 130 |
68,733 | Medroxyprogesterone | birth control | "Not only did I gain ten pounds in just a few months after maintaining a steady weight for years, after a few months the lining of my vaginal walls began to thin making sex really uncomfortable. I also have to get up to pee three times a night on average, which has never happened before and is really inconvenient. In order to combat the heavy periods I was getting after the first month, my doctor put me on Junel Fe as well, and that seems to be helping, but I had to go on a SECOND form of birth control that required taking a pill daily just because this worked so poorly and had so many side effects. Also noticed significant anxiety/hormonal fluctuations at random with zero cause since I've been on this." | 1 | December 19, 2016 | 0 | 133 |

140,647 | Escitalopram | anxiety | "Just passed week four marker on 10 mg, and am experiencing subtle but positive changes. The first week and one half was a bit disconcerting, as the heart palpitations I had increased, and my anxieties seemed to be amplified. I also developed a headache that nothing could touch, that lasted about four days. Thereafter things calmed and about week three I began to notice periods of time when I became more mellow, and my interactions with those around me seem more positive than before. Now that mellowness has expanded somewhat, though it is not consistent, nor do I feel any haziness or loss of focus when needed. No weight gain, no sexual side effects." | 8 | April 21, 2017 | 15 | 114 |

49,005 | Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel | birth control | "I've been on this pill for a year and I think I'm gonna stop taking it. Honestly not really happy with this pill! For someone who had relatively clear skin I got the worst acne from using it! Like little bumps all over my forehead and painful zits on my jawline and cheeks. Tried every possible skin care line and couldn't understand how I went from clear skin to a face full of acne... and now some acne scars too. Finally pinpointed it to Alesse being the cause. Also pretty sure I gained some weight while on it. Definitely don't recommend it!" | 2 | November 1, 2016 | 6 | 102 |
148,497 | Mirena | abnormal uterine bleeding | "I've had the mirena in for 4 months. The first month I bled for about 2 weeks, but my doctor warned me about bleeding/spotting so I didn't think anything about it. Next month, bled for about 10 days,(normal cycle is 5 days) and the 3rd month, I bled for the entire month and 2 weeks into the next month. I went to the bathroom to urinate. I go to wipe myself and the mirena comes completely out. It was wrapped in huge blood clots, and I had an alarming amount of blood come out. I'm beyond frustrated. Bleeding for 6 weeks has not been fun at all, and now it comes out " | 3 | April 11, 2017 | 8 | 113 |
11,439 | Stimate | von willebrand's disease | "From my experience's its worked amazingly well for my Von Willebrands disease. It makes your face flush and heat very quickly but its not that bad of a side effect. The first time I used it I was out of it for about 15 minutes and after that it never happened again." | 10 | August 25, 2010 | 4 | 52 |
29,379 | Topiramate | obesity | "I was prescribed this medication about 2 years ago for my cyclic vomiting syndrome. This first I took it, I had a bad experience and had to stop but after a year my doctor suggested that we try again. It has been a full year now. Since then I didn't have any weight change however; in October - she added another management pill to my list in addition to the topiramate and I have lost almost 30 lbs. I started at 199 lbs and as of today, I am down to 175 lbs. I was a size 16 Jean and bought a size 10 Jean today. I have been very unhappy about my weight since my daughter was born but recently, I am finding myself quite happier.

214,019 | Tioconazole | vaginal yeast infection | "Ooookay they definitely changed this product because the first time I got this it worked fine! My second time using it I feel like the gates of hell moved into my poor va-jay-jay. I got a yeast infection from a 7mile obstacle course that I ran. My underwear was caked in mud/swamp water and sweat in which I wore for about 3hrs throughout the event. Bad decision. But taking this is an even worse decision! I'm so raw, tender, swollen, irritated and itchy down there. It hurts so bad from how raw and sore it is. I have to change my panty liner every hour because there's so much white discharge. I freaked out and called my doctor who said it's the medicine working and flushing my system out. Ughhh I really wish I would've taken a pill." | 1 | June 19, 2016 | 6 | 138 |
198,272 | Exenatide | diabetes, type 2 | "4 injections so far and experienced the nausea which initially lasted three days and slowly is backing down. I have no problem with the injection. I don't know if this will help others who develop a lump after their injection but I immediately massage the area on my belly then use ice for about 10 minutes. No rash no pain no lump. I don't know if this is the answer to the lumps or I'm one of the lucky ones but it might be worth a try. My appetite is practically nonexistent. I am experiencing the bloat. I seem to be able to not eat more than seven or eight bites of food without bringing it back up. I also have the most embarrassing huge burps you have ever heard. Also take 2000 mg "Metfartin"" | 8 | May 23, 2016 | 22 | 135 |
6,334 | Latanoprost | glaucoma, open angle | "I have been on this medication for over 5 years with no side effects and it has lowered my eye pressure.

109,772 | Nexplanon | birth control | "Ever since I been on the nexplanon I have gained weight. I also can't lose weight. I have gained 15 lbs since being on it. I've been on it for almost 2 years. But it does its job I didn't get pregnant." | 4 | July 20, 2016 | 2 | 42 |
6,437 | Ocella | birth control | "I switched to Ocella after taking Yaz for 3months. I have PCOS as well. Ocella worked wonderfully in clearing my skin, and it gave me a 7-day period (instead of the constant flow). That was a relief. But, I had bad side effects that caused me to ask for a change in medication after 3 or 4 months using it. I didn't realize they were connected to birth control at first, but now it's obvious with timing. I get debilitating migraine headaches during the first few days of the placebo week (from hormone drop), and the week before my period I have severe constipation, which affects my body image (I feel unattractive). It also has me very depressed a week before, too. And this last month, I started spotting 2 weeks in." | 6 | July 11, 2010 | 6 | 132 |
157,922 | Accutane | acne | "Despite the high cost and the side effects - fantastic. Struggled through teens and then nothing until I hit 40! Suddenly, terrible facial and body acne again. Had to go for private treatment as the UK NHS would not cover the cost but, so worth the cost. Some discomfort, very dry lips, some nose bleeds due to dryness, joint pain in knees and back, hair thin and brittle but no lasting effects at all and would not hesitate to do it again if required. It works. My skin is better now than it has ever been." | 10 | August 2, 2012 | 9 | 96 |
21,155 | Paliperidone | schizoaffective disorde | "this medication is weird. you can be doing really well and be normal and then all of a sudden you get a manic episode or psychotic episode out of nowhere when you were normal like 2 days ago. It doesn't help you sleep although it's good because it didn't stop me from waking up in the morning. I was able to go to for my morning class as I was waking up at 5:30am. Although couldn't concentrate in class and I never cooked. from what I remember I was doing better on risperdal although I was more out of it and way more paranoid and it was really scary but I had good friends and never got manic and never had to go to the hospital for almost 10 years and also did well in school. I think invega is too inconsistent and can't take the mood stabilizer I want to" | 7 | September 5, 2016 | 18 | 151 |
93,014 | Vortioxetine | major depressive disorde | "I’ve been on Brintellix for a year now. My anxiety and depression were to the point I couldn't handle even little issues; I worried about everything and I couldn’t stop my brain. I have tried many medications over the years and this by far is the best. My life has changed for the better; I feel calm and am able to handle whatever life throws at me. I only wish it didn’t cost so much, I’d hate to go off the meds but with the price I’m not sure how long I can afford it." | 10 | September 7, 2016 | 17 | 95 |
37,508 | Vyvanse | adhd | "I'm a 22 year old male with a horrible case of ADHD. In the past I've taken Adderall which made me absolutely nuts. Since starting Vyvanse I have noticed the euphoric high feeling is gone and the focused, mellow feeling kicking in. I take 70mg daily and it lasts me a solid 10 hours. Wish I had been on this medicine from the start!" | 9 | February 11, 2012 | 13 | 64 |
161,848 | Ciprofloxacin | urinary tract infection | "I'm one of those anxious patients that look up the possible side effects to every med before taking now... due to having a severe reaction to Zoloft. Before that reaction I was never scared of meds. I was absolutely terrified to take this, but I had a UTI and so had to take it. Once I did I had absolutely 0 side effects. I get a headache if I don't eat with it, but I wouldn't really even consider that a side effect. Not even one bad thing happened to me...several people have posted such horror stories and it just scares people like me. Believe me I'm terrified of meds and this one is a breeze for me to take. If you need it you have to force yourself to take it, and hopefully like me you'll have a great experience. Good luck" | 10 | November 3, 2017 | 3 | 143 |
155,993 | Cialis | erectile dysfunction | "Cialis has done the unthinkable for me. I'm an 18 year old who's suffered from BPH for about a year and ED ever since I began becoming sexually active (also about a year). My ED lead me to a depression upon the realization that no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't be like most guys around me. I couldn't enjoy one of life's most basic pleasures. I couldn't establish that intimate connection with whoever I loved and couldn't satisfy her needs. I felt as if my masculinity was being assaulted everyday as time passed by. This is my first day on this medication (5mg daily) and it's given me the best/firmest erection I can ever remember having; my insecurities coming from ED have disappeared. 10/10 would recommend to any man with ED." | 10 | June 28, 2016 | 55 | 134 |
59,734 | NuvaRing | birth control | "At first, I was on Tri-Lo-Sprintec. I took those pills for a month but was advised by my gyn to switch bc because I started to get blurred vision and migraine headaches. I switched to the nuvaring and have been using it for a week and I am already noticing side effects. First, while I am not feeling depressed or anxious, I have noticed that I am a little more easily angered. The smallest things have been getting under my skin. The side effect I notice is lack of appetite. I have always LOVED food and this week even the thought of food is blah. I'll get hungry but after a few spoonfuls, I am unable to eat anymore. Its early to really know how I feel about the nuvaring but I will definitely give updates!" | 7 | February 13, 2017 | 8 | 136 |
205,659 | Pristiq | anxiety | "I have been on Pristiq for 11 days after switching from Paxil 12.5 CR. I feel like I've been on a roller coaster ride. Agitation, shaky, anxiety and emotional. The nausea and headaches are gone now but I'm thinking this is not the right medicine for me. I will give it 14 days and if there is no improvement I will get off them. Not sure what I'll try next. The doctor thinks Wellbutrin. " | 5 | September 11, 2011 | 5 | 75 |
156,383 | Ropinirole | restless legs syndrome | "ROPRINOLE Did stop the nighttime leg cramps, but after 3 or so years I began having sudden periods of sleep during the day including while driving, so, per Doctor's instructions, I am reducing the amount of Roprinole I Take at bedtime. So far so good." | 6 | January 23, 2014 | 13 | 45 |
108,373 | Bupropion / naltrexone | obesity | "I've only been on Contrave for about 2 weeks, but wanted to go ahead & share my experience at this point, & will update again in a couple of months. Unlike many other users, I've been lucky & haven't had hardly any side effects aside from a little nausea in the morning, that only lasted the first 3 days. I'm taking 2 a day, & will soon be starting 3 a day. I have lost 10lbs, following a 1,000 calorie vegetarian diet while on Contrave. My insurance didn't cover it (United Healthcare), but with the Contrave Rx Savings Program, I only had to pay $70 for my first Rx, then it lowers to $60 3rd Rx & beyond. So far, it's completely effective & worth it to me." | 9 | May 11, 2015 | 28 | 128 |
26,707 | Sprintec | birth control | "I just started pack 3 of Sprintec last night and love it. I started taking this pill due to me already having 2 kids and I don't want any more any time soon. I haven't had any side effects but being nauseous on the first and I'm losing weight, sometimes I feel myself being a little nauseous at times but nothing major and periods are regular as normal. I would highly recommend this birth control." | 10 | September 20, 2010 | 8 | 75 |
108,931 | Nexplanon | birth control | "Seriously how dare they sell this as something thats supposed almost STOP your period. I understand they warn you it can be random but no, that is not what this is. I'm on my second year with this and have even had one check up to complain about my almost CONSTANT period. I was told to try ibuprofen and even given a script for Birthcontrol Pills (but really if I'm in Birth control Already why should I have to take the Pills too? ) to help stop the endless spotting- which for me is more of constant gush> just enough to ruin my entire outfit but not enough to get my moneys worth for all the tampons and panty liners I keep having to use as a precaution. First six months was the only time this bar was worth the burden." | 2 | June 9, 2017 | 0 | 141 |
