36,170 | Coreg | left ventricular dysfunction | "I am 91 and have congestive heart failure. (I also fell and broke the femur articulation with my hip in late March). My doctor gave me this medicine, Coreg, and it took away the swelling in my feet, ankles, legs and knees. I was having such pain in my knees and the drug along with other medicines I take, that it has gotten the fluid out of my system and my knees no longer ache. This medicine has really improved my life." | 9 | August 26, 2009 | 50 | 82 |
45,318 | Fluoxetine | anxiety and stress | "I thought it was just me. Me not being strong enough to just "deal with it". No one understood me. I would obsess over my health, death, relationships to a point where I thought I was going crazy. I couldn't stop freaking out. Then I had my first anxiety attack. My heart was racing and I felt like I was going to die. No one knows that feeling unless you're like me ... anxiety/panic attack. I had no idea what it was and I rushed over to my parents (NOT RECOMMENDED). I remembered nothing. I woke up the next day feeling drained. A week went by and it happened again. I decided I needed help. Prozac was discussed as a long term treatment and I've gained my life back. I'm happy. Which I haven't been in such a long time. Just happy." | 9 | August 23, 2015 | 56 | 142 |
191,736 | Lisdexamfetamine | adhd | "I'm 16 and I've taken Vyvanse for months now and it helps a lot with minimal side effects. My mouth does get dry and I become less social but other than that its preferable to Ritalin, as Ritalin is much less smooth in terms of kicking in and wearing off and lasts a lot shorter." | 10 | February 1, 2011 | 1 | 55 |
52,627 | Doryx | acne | "I have been taking this medication for about three months now. It has cleared up 80% of my acne, and I have not gotten any new acne since I've been on it. Also, I haven't lost any hair, or had any side effects/problems while on this medication." | 10 | July 2, 2015 | 18 | 47 |
174,507 | Abreva | herpes simplex | "When I apply Abreva at the very first tingle, it drastically reduces the amount that the cold sore grows to, and reduces my healing time in half. (Without Abreva, my cold sores usually last about 2 weeks from initial tingle to completely healed, and with Abreva only one week.)
I get twice yearly outbreaks. Abreva would be more worth it if it were not so over priced." | 8 | May 14, 2017 | 4 | 67 |
2,463 | Uceris | ulcerative colitis | "I have UC for 12 years, I was in remission for a few years and then all of a sudden I had a flare up, I have been one this medication for almost 2 months. When I first started on it, it helped for like a week or so. I had swelling in my face and joints and sore muscles and headaches. My doctor told me to stick with it so my body could adjust properly and it helped but didnt stop my issues. For the last week I have been going to the bathroom 10 times a day. Me and my doctor are now trying to figure out the next step." | 3 | March 9, 2017 | 4 | 112 |
109,914 | Nexplanon | birth control | "I've had Nexplanon for 2 years now and it has been wonderful. My doctor numbed my arm when I got it implanted so there was no physical pain. My arm was a tad sore after the numbing medication wore off, but only for a day or two at most. The soreness wasn't anything serious either. I didn't have any physical side effects from the implant at all. I did not gain weight, I did not get acne, my hair didn't get more oily, and I didn't cramp. After about a month of having it in, my period was due and I bled a little longer than usual. After bleeding for about 11 days, I spotted for about 7 more days. After that month of bleeding and spotting, I haven't had a period since. I am engaged and my fiance finished inside of me, I have not gotten pregnant" | 10 | June 7, 2016 | 6 | 148 |
35,365 | Rogaine Women's | alopecia | "I have been losing my hair gradually for the last 10 years my hairdresser said something about it then I started noticing my hair was falling out by the handfuls so I got a little nervous and bought Rogaine for women wow this stuff is amazing I can't believe how thick my hair is after all these years I don't know why I didn't try this product sooner but now I am and I'm glad I did I haven't had any side effects from it all go I highly recommend washing your hands after applying it to your hair to prevent transferring it onto your face" | 10 | January 25, 2016 | 51 | 106 |
104,455 | Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel | birth control | "I've been on all different birth controls, the patch, shot, Yaz and the only one that works is Aviane. I have not gained weight, light and painless periods, same sex drive, not moody no zits no anything! Definitely a good birth control." | 10 | January 15, 2012 | 4 | 42 |
82,334 | Liraglutide | diabetes, type 2 | "I started this medication one week ago. I was apprehensive to start but I did. I 41 year old female with Type II diabetes. I was diagnosed 7 years ago. I have always had fairly good control but my fasting levels are always difficult to manage. The first night, I was very nauseous! I could not even smell food and I ate sprite and apple sauce for dinner. The next day, I noticed a decrease in appetite but no nausea. I did wake up with headaches for the first 3 days. My numbers have greatly improved! Even my fasting numbers, which were my toughest to control are now under 105; this was never possible before. I have lost 1-2 pounds so far. I do not feel hungryand I fill up faster. I do not have the cravings that I had and can turn away dessert" | 10 | March 12, 2015 | 29 | 145 |
126,268 | Viibryd | depression | "Have been a very angry man for a long time, and was fed up with being mad and guilty about my anger. Bit the bullet and went to the doctor all my blood work was green. So we tried Viibryd I'm on week 4 and no adverse reactions beyond mild dry mouth, and a tighness in my jaw muscles. I think this is what normal people feel like, I feel happy, less guilt, WAY less anger. BUT blue cross says they might not pay for it, however if I continue to feel this way, or better I will pay for it gladly. I recommend it." | 7 | February 14, 2012 | 41 | 105 |
150,260 | Mucinex D | cough and nasal congestion | "I am a long-time sinus sufferer. Mucinex is a God send. Mucinex-D works fabulous for the morning and all-day relief. For bed, I just take Mucinex (without the D) so that I don't have the stimulant effect of the pseudoephedrine running through me. Works like a charm to get some sleep. Do not like generic versions. They don't work like the brand-name Mucinex does. Expensive but so worth every cent!" | 9 | March 2, 2011 | 8 | 70 |
8,498 | Zolpidem | insomnia | "I've taken Ambien sporadically since 2003. I started using the medication to help me sleep when my husband was deployed. What a miracle! I have memories of being four years old and struggling to slow my mind down enough to sleep like a normal person. I thought that I would always toss and turn and pace the floors of my house for four hours and sleep for two or three for my entire life. I'm very thankful that my PCM referred me to a psychiatrist to address my sleep issues. I still rely on sleep aids many nights and alternate between Ambien and Lunesta. Lunesta seems to be much more mild in my experiences, whereas Ambien just immediately induces sleep." | 9 | January 3, 2012 | 1 | 120 |
99,761 | Magnesium sulfate / potassium sulfate / sodium sulfate | bowel preparation | "Had colonoscopy today just now reading reviews ha ..It does work well !! all reviews are correct that I read...it doesnt taste good..can't imagine vomiting but I almost did.. Understand vaseline to butt cheeks I would recommed first application prior to drinking 1st dose and cont to reapply often.Yes!! to proceedure (anesthesia) and food." | 10 | September 24, 2016 | 8 | 54 |
157,224 | Memantine | alzheimer's disease | "My husband has Vascular Dementia for appox. 4+ yrs. Has been on Memantine for almost a yr., no changes for the good, we expected that mostly, but he's more depressed, talks about wanting to die, cannot feel when he has to pee and just wets himself, more unstable walking, I understand this could be a result of the Dementia. So everything is impossible to judge, thank you all for not giving up and for continuing to look for solutions! God Bless you All, and help you find a cure, thanks for your time.....Pat" | 1 | March 1, 2017 | 11 | 93 |
29,594 | Topiramate | migraine prevention | "Topiramate has been my saving grace. I've suffered from migraines for as long as I can remember, since before age 5. I had one or more everyday and nothing would get of them. I had gone to the neurologist and even given up gluten. After trying topiramate for only a few days my life had changed drastically, I almost never get migraines and if I do they are very very minor and nothing a dose of Excedrin can't fix." | 10 | July 18, 2014 | 12 | 79 |
115,237 | Diazepam | anxiety | "I have been taking two (one in the morning and one at night) 5mg Valium for the last five years. It has worked wonders for me. I have not changed the dosage and have had no reason to increase it. Before I started this medicine, I would literally tremble when I would get nervous. I don't even feel it in any way when I take it, but don't get anxious and am able to make decisions that I can't when I'm so nervous. This medicine has worked miracles for me and if anyone thinks because it is a controlled substance that it is not a really good medicine for some people then they are wrong." | 10 | July 24, 2009 | 236 | 115 |
118,640 | Drospirenone / ethinyl estradiol | birth control | "I’ve found out the hard way... want to warn people taking the pill Yasmin to really think about it. I wish my Doctors wouldn’t of recommended this to me and told me about the risks. I’m losing my hair and going bald, my skin has got worse, headaches, the lot. Horrible pill! Shouldn’t be prescribing this pill to women with horrible side affects ." | 1 | November 26, 2017 | 0 | 64 |
132,587 | Doxepin | insomnia | "This made me sooooooo tired and drugged feeling I could barely wake up! It was terrible! I hate insomnia but this was ridiculous! This stuff is not a solution! Unless all you do is sleep. So frustrated! Thought this was the one!" | 2 | May 18, 2015 | 31 | 42 |
99,288 | Doxylamine | insomnia | "This medication WILL put you to sleep. However, I had the adverse "Hangover effect." I took one pill at eight in the morning (I work nights), and could not pull myself out of bed until after 9pm. I may try again with just a half pill." | 5 | July 23, 2014 | 32 | 46 |
46,580 | Sulfasalazine | rheumatoid arthritis | "My reaction was unusual! After the second week I began to get daily severe headaches and raised temperature, after the third week my temperature was quite high, still severe headaches, doctor thought it was an infection, blood tests showed extremely high CRP, ESR and raised liver enzymes, also extremely low blood pressure. I was taken off sulfasalazine and treated with antibiotics, improved quickly, recommenced medicine and had exactly the same reaction within aweek!" | 1 | February 26, 2015 | 61 | 73 |
169,131 | Vilazodone | depression | "I was taken off Viibryd by my Doctor due to swelling and huge increase in blood pressure. It was helping the depression and sensitivity but had some strange side effects like numbness in arms and hands, tingling sensations in back and forehead, swelling of face, stomach hands and ankles. My face looked like a Marshmallow." | 6 | October 2, 2011 | 55 | 55 |
62,758 | Citalopram | depression | "I have been taking the med for about 3 months, it worked fantastic for the depression, the only down side was some urinary discomfort and a lower than normal sex drive, which was isolated after stopping the med for 3 days. Other than that the med was very effective. Much more so than most of the others I have tried." | 8 | March 20, 2008 | 17 | 60 |
212,092 | Lamotrigine | seizure prevention | "After 17 seizures in 1 week, 15 years of epilepsy and absolutely NO life, within only a few days, a total change came over me with this medicine. I actually started getting my brain back, depression lifted, I went SWIMMING(!). Not a seizure yet, I am not unrealistic, although at a low dose, I am cautiously optimistic. The insomnia is somewhat relentless, back pain too, & my appetite is insatiable." | 9 | August 30, 2014 | 7 | 70 |
38,224 | Albuterol | copd, acute | "I have been using this medicine for many years and it really works for me. I walk everywhere, and going up hills it really comes in handy. I however do not like the new design, it tells you how much you have used, which is the good part, but the bad part is it clogs up too easily. The old one clogs as well, but takes longer to do it. I personally have not noticed any side effect of this medicine. The old albuterol inhalers made my heart race, this one does not." | 8 | September 19, 2013 | 27 | 93 |
218,414 | Amoxicillin / clavulanate | bacterial infection | "I had a really bad fever and swollen tonsils and this medicine did make all the symptoms go away but after about three days of taking it I now feel sick from the constant diarrhea and nausea." | 7 | October 3, 2012 | 29 | 37 |
171,429 | Wellbutrin | depression | "Wellbutrin SR 150s, which initially had positive outcomes on my depression, probably the best I've tried, and I've tried a lot the past years. It took a bit to get the optimal dose. At 300 mg it was causing a cascade of side effects, anxiety, palpitations, sweating. Doc helped me back down to 100 mg with no side effects. The depression is just as gone as the initial 300 mg.
Wellbutrin also developed a positive outcome in mere days - a major plus." | 8 | January 8, 2015 | 175 | 83 |
225,552 | Bupropion | anxiety | "I started this medication at 150 mg xl about a week ago... I feel slightly different. ... I had a panic attack at work the other day.... which scared me.... I dont get as upset as before. My sex life is great! I think Im going to give it another week and maybe increase my dosage..." | 6 | November 10, 2013 | 59 | 56 |
192,103 | Drospirenone / ethinyl estradiol | acne | "I have been on this birth control for a month and never had any side effects. I never had the mood swings or migraines others have reported. I went on this specific brand because it is the generic form on YAZ and I wanted to clear my acne. I can say my face is 80% better than what it was a month ago and I am very happy with the results. I look forward to what a few more months on this pill can do for my skin. I give it a 9 because I was spotting a few days before my period week, but I think that's to be expected with a new pill." | 9 | September 14, 2016 | 3 | 115 |
121,495 | Venlafaxine | generalized anxiety disorde | "I took Effexor XR 37.5mg for 1 month against general anxiety & major depressive episode after big setbacks in business and job. The first week I had to force myself to take it with daily telephone encouragement of the Doctor (GP). Headaches, nausea, sweating, and anxiety about taking the new drug itself. After 3 weeks I did feel a bit better but had strong headaches and felt very tiered still all day. I decided to reduce and phase it out over 2 weeks by taking out the little balls from the pill. To my surprise this was much easier to stop than Paxil that I had discontinued for 8 months (after longterm use). Now without Effexor since 4 weeks; no more headaches or anxiety, feel more alive and productive without these "numbing" drugs." | 6 | December 8, 2015 | 22 | 133 |
62,819 | Cozaar | high blood pressure | "I have had high blood pressure for years and have just started a medicine routine. I tried Zestril and had great results but did not like the cough. So, my doctor switched me to Cozaar. This makes me cough, makes me tired, dizzy, and constipated." | 6 | May 1, 2009 | 160 | 45 |
169,329 | Diethylpropion | obesity | "Favorable experience. I was too fat and my doctor prescribed it: Tenuate 75mg. Lost a lot of weight rather quickly probably due to the fact I wasn't hungry at all while taking Tenuate 75mg. As a truck driver the added bonus of staying awake and alert helped. No bad side effects & I was able to stop taking them without any withdrawal problems. I took only one each night before starting work. It was great. Ask your doctor first about a prescription." | 10 | February 13, 2014 | 68 | 82 |
151,136 | OxyContin | pain | "I was prescribed this medication following a motor cycles accident (R.Leg broken 4 places/L.Wrist fractures both sides of joint/Broken Pelvis/Fractured Vertebrae). I currently take 70mg twice a day and it helped with the pain. At 80mg I found everything a bit distant. So I end up taking the 70mg twice a day and wow how it helps is great. Whilst I am still in pain, I can function these day. I go to work full time (Computer operator). Good medication, well worth taking." | 9 | October 12, 2011 | 25 | 83 |
32,038 | Wellbutrin XL | depression | "I had constant diarrhea, 3-4 times a day. I had a loss of appetite and had gotten to the point that I couldn't stand to even think about food. Thinking about what to eat or cook for my family actually caused anxiety. I lost 10 lbs in 9 nine days. About the 5th or 6th day I started to be unable to sleep during the night. I woke up every hour. During the day I would have waves of nervous energy, almost like the feeling you get when you experience the fight or flight response. The last day I took it I woke up at 4 am with diarrhea, left sided abdominal pain that radiated to my back and shoulder, and heart palpitations. A trip to the ER revealed that I had a large amount of stool and gas in my colon. I had a miserable experience with Wellbutrin" | 1 | August 28, 2015 | 11 | 149 |
134,707 | Ketorolac | pain | "I had excruciating pain in my left arm. They gave me a shot of morphine which did not relieve it at all. They then decided to give me Toradol through an IV site. It was the only thing that took the pain away. It's excellent." | 10 | June 25, 2008 | 13 | 45 |
94,971 | Abilify | bipolar disorde | "Abilify has enabled me to control some of my anxiousness and reactions due to being anxious better than I had been able to before. I no longer want to smack someone who I feel is doing me wrong - I am able to control those impulses so much better than before, it is not even funny. I think on a day to day basis, I am much more even keeled than I was before I started taking the medication. Keep in mind that I take it with an antidepressant (Lexapro) because I understand that Abilify provides an assist to the Lexapro in controlling my overwhelming depression symptoms. Depression and anger are now being controlled more effectively." | 9 | October 26, 2011 | 28 | 116 |
143,369 | Etonogestrel | birth control | "I've had the Nexplanon for over 2 years and I absolutely love it. The only issue I've had with it is my periods are very irregular which is no big deal for me. I get a period for 2 weeks and then I'm period free for about 4 months, then it will return. I have no problem with that. I plan on using this birth control method for 5 more years. I love it." | 10 | February 22, 2017 | 2 | 74 |
87,650 | Naproxen | gout, acute | "I suffer from gout in my feet periodically because I do not take preventative medicines. My last bout I tried Tylenol extra strength first and got no relief. I switched to Aleve gel caps and immediately felt the pain decrease. I am a believer and also an Aleveir, thanks a lot." | 9 | May 23, 2013 | 94 | 51 |
31,294 | Miconazole | vaginal yeast infection | "So the first time I used this product I was burning like crazy! I ended up with an infection again a couple months later & decided to try again ( The same pack) although I only have 6 days of product the box says if I don't see a change in 3 days to see a doc, so I'm assuming the whole 7 days aren't all that necessary anyway.. Oh well this is my first day trying it after the last horrible experience. But this time I don't feel ANY burning... A lady told me tampering with the vagina before using the product can cause burning (ex. From itching or wiping vigorously) ..." | 5 | August 11, 2016 | 6 | 113 |
73,819 | Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone | birth control | "I've been on Lo Loestrin for a little over a month now. I've experienced slight weight gain (no more than 5 lbs, all of which seemed to end up around my mid-section of course!). No increase in breast size, which I was greatly hoping for. I was previously on Ortho Tri-Cyclen for a month and that was bad. The lower dose of hormones in this pill seems to really be working for me. However, I didn't even get so much as a slight period last week when I was supposed to have one. I'm one of those women who want a period EVERY month, just to be sure so I'm a bit unhappy with the lack of a period on this birth control. I occasionally experience nausea, fatigue and irritability but nothing that interferes terribly with my life." | 8 | July 7, 2012 | 11 | 138 |
72,354 | Tramadol | ibromyalgia | "I use tramadol for fibromyalgia pain and it works really good and have no side effects from it. It is good because I am allergic to so many medicines! I use this with Pristiq and it works wonderful!" | 10 | December 13, 2011 | 28 | 38 |
1,323 | Sumatriptan | migraine | "I have suffered migraines since I was in grade school (I'm now 45). My headaches used to come on in the late afternoon and put me in bed for the rest of the day but I would wake up next morning feeling ok. Now my headaches come on about 3-4 in the morning and last 2 days of non stop vomiting and pain. The doctor put me on Topamax daily but the side effects keep causing me to overheat in the Texas weather. The doctor just put me on sumatriptan 100mg and I just had an attack 2 days ago. I took 1 pill and it did nothing. 3 hours later I took a second dose and I still ended up in bed for 14 hours. " | 2 | June 25, 2013 | 7 | 127 |
152,952 | Doxycycline | acne | "I used doxycycline (200mg) for about 19 months for my rosacea. Discontinued it about 3 wks ago. Coming off the medication is wreaking havoc on my skin. My main issue w/ rosacea was the facial redness, not acne, but the doctor never really explained that doxycycline might not help the former, and I was so desperate to find a "miracle drug" that I failed to ask the right questions or do the right research -- my fault. Now I'm dealing with acne, and it's absolutely disheartening. My cheeks forehead look worse than ever. Not to mention weight gain and feelings of pressure in my head. I would not recommend this medication. I regret taking it. There should be a warning that discontinuing the med *WILL* result in negative effects on your skin." | 4 | January 14, 2017 | 7 | 132 |
210,740 | Mirtazapine | insomnia | "Took not even a full 15 mg tab one night for sleep issues..never again. Slept OK but lost entire following day through groggy dizzy bad humoured mood ..absolutely terrible the rest are in the bin .." | 1 | January 21, 2017 | 37 | 36 |
80,222 | Benzonatate | cough | "Very rough cough for 3 days. Cough was dry with green mucus. Doc advised me to not take antihistamines at all and just stick to Tessalon. Glad I did! Cough 80% suppressed after 2 dosages. Plenty of water and 100% rest." | 10 | March 21, 2015 | 10 | 41 |
122,095 | Venlafaxine | panic disorde | "I have been taking Effexor XR for several years, alternating between 37.5 mg and 75 mg when needed. I feel better, but it still does not keep me from having attacks. I have to take an Ativan when I have an attack to get it to stop. I have been dealing with this for about 12 years and Effexor XR is the most effective out of Celexa and Zoloft." | 9 | November 4, 2010 | 41 | 69 |
191,753 | Lisdexamfetamine | adhd | "I am 44 years old and was recently diagnosed as ADD. I am a successful professional that always had to work a little harder to achieve results due to my lack of concentration and tendency toward distractions. I started taking Vyvanse, and have to admit I felt like Superwoman for about a week and ranted and raved about how much I was getting done without the jittery feeling most stimulants provide. But then all in one day, I crashed. I started getting extremely agitated. I then would get so angry I would cry hysterically. I quit taking the medication and within a few days my mood and attitude have leveled off. Although, I have suffered from extreme vertigo and exhaustion since I have been off this medicine. I was on 30mg." | 2 | September 26, 2010 | 35 | 131 |
108,408 | Bupropion / naltrexone | obesity | "Me and my mom (both of us are adults) both started it. She has low thryroid and I think that and menopause made her gain a lot of weight. She already lost over 10lbs and has no side effects. She said she doesn't even know she's taking it, except she has lower appetite and is kinda happier. She does seem happier, because I notice her talking more to friends and doing things, where before she had not been wanting to see people or go places for some reason. She doesn't normally want to take medicines but I am really glad she's taking the Contrave.
I am trying to quit smoking (1 of the ingredients helps w/ that). At first I felt a bit "buzzed" but now I'm used to it. So far quit smoking & have even lost a little weigh" | 9 | April 21, 2015 | 16 | 141 |
140,234 | Asenapine | bipolar disorde | "I just replaced my 75mg nightly Seroquel with 5mg (will probably go to 10) of Saphris. I was very scared to change. I am a successful and happy trauma nurse, mom, partner, etc., even though I do struggle with bipolar disorder and anxiety. My life has been going REALLY well for several years with low doses of Seroquel, Zoloft, and Lamictal, so when my annual spring crazies kind of snuck up on me worse than normal, I was very hesitant to rock the boat. So far this compares VERY FAVORABLY with my Seroquel. I am sleeping well and the morning fog is getting better as my body adjusts. My thinking is clearer and quieter WITHOUT feeling dumb or sad. And I don't seem to be quite as ravenously hungry as on Seroquel. Hope it lasts!" | 9 | April 10, 2013 | 59 | 135 |
12,560 | Elbasvir / grazoprevir | hepatitis c | "I'm 40 and had hep C for 20 years. I'm currently into my second week so I don't know if it has started to work as yet. I don't seem to have any adverse side affects, fatigue some days - not all. Still manage to work long hours and look after family and horses so I guess that would make any one tired! All good up to now and looking forward to being hep c free. Good luck" | 9 | September 1, 2017 | 8 | 78 |
102,061 | Brilinta | acute coronary syndrome | "I've been reading other people's experiences and I wonder if I'm on the same medication. I am 74 years old, and I've been on Brilinta with 81 aspirin since 2/29/16, when I had 92% blockage in the widow maker, the descending major heart artery. Thankful that I was in the doctor's office when I had my heart attack, I ended up with two stents and Brilinta. I have had no noticeable side effects. I exercise three days a week in our local life center, with both aerobic and resistance exercises, and I have never experienced anything like the excessive fatigue I read others complaining of. Other than cuts or scrapes taking a little longer to coagulate I have had no bleeding to complain about. Maybe the Brilinta I'm receiving is just better." | 10 | December 4, 2016 | 12 | 132 |
193,131 | Dextroamphetamine | adhd | "I am a 20 year old male, 175 lbs, and this was my first time taking ADD medication in my life. I have always had problems concentrating and get drowsy during the day and so have had problems doing homework/studying for college. I took 2 pills of 15mg capsules both at once at about 1pm. It was great. I was able to concentrate and do a huge amount of homework with out stopping. However, there were side effects. I couldn't stop chewing gum the whole time I was on it (or else I would grind my teeth). I couldn't eat anything and I ended up not being able to sleep all night. So I like the positives." | 7 | February 24, 2009 | 9 | 117 |
144,827 | Etonogestrel | birth control | "I got it inserted August 2015. I thought it was great until 2 months ago I started bleeding and am still to this day. It's never enough for a tampon though. I hate it! If the bleeding doesn't quit soon it's gonna have to come out." | 4 | January 16, 2016 | 6 | 46 |
154,871 | Metronidazole | bacterial vaginitis | "Day 1 on these meds was euphoric. Day 2 was normal and by day 3 I was unable to move I was so sick. I found all these reviews as I laid on my couch crying. It really helped to know I wasn't alone (thanks!). I had stomach like flu symptoms: aching, numbness, dizziness, nausea, a horrible stomach ache, and no appetite. I'd have to give myself a pep talk before swallowing each pill.
But I survived. With some proactive measures the effects weren't as bad. And the problem is gone.
Here's what worked for me: Take the pills with a monstrously big meal. Hard to do when you're nauseous. No alcohol at all but also no fermented foods: kombucha, pickles, soy sauce, cooking wine (best to stay away from Chinese food), and vinegar. Get tons of rest. <3" | 5 | January 8, 2017 | 6 | 139 |
60,504 | Ranexa | angina | "I was given Ranexa by my Physician Assistant for some minor chest pain. I took 4 doses of Ranexa (500 mg) as prescribed. I experienced dizziness, was light headed. That evening about midnight while I was in bed I had uncontrollable diarrhea, headed to the bathroom, changed pajamas and immediately had uncontrollable diarrhea again. Returning to bed I experienced the uncontrollable diarrhea while asleep. I did not take any more and ended up in the hospital emergency room severely dehydrated. I was there two days with numerous tests. After this experience, I would never take this again. I destroyed the rest of the pills." | 1 | August 29, 2017 | 4 | 104 |
114,165 | Fiorinal | migraine | "I have had migraine's ever since I was 13 and I have tried tons of different medicines. A friend of my mom's said to try Fiorinal, I called my doctor and she called it in for me. My next migraine came and I took 1 pill and my migraine was over within 5 mins. This is the only medicine for me. I made a mistake and left the house without it and went shopping and I went through the perfume dept at a store and boom instant migraine came on. I did not catch it in time but once I got home I took 1 pill and 2hrs later took another and my migraine was gone. I Never Leave Home With Out It." | 9 | January 5, 2012 | 42 | 123 |
116,289 | Adalimumab | rheumatoid arthritis | "I started on humira a year after my diagnosis and felt better overnight. It wasn't the pain that was doing me in it was the total lack of energy and not feeling like myself. I finally felt normal again. My doctor wanted me to also take methotrexate but the oral pills caused almost constant vomiting. After my wrist problems I tried the methotrexate again with no success so was put on enbrel. I had some minor skin infections on humira but never ran a a fever and could always be cleared up. So after almost 3 years on humira I was switched to enbrel. My energy plummeted, although I had no pain or flares just constant respiratory infections with fevers. I was put on sub q meth and humira and energy returned. I am so much happier!" | 10 | July 26, 2015 | 51 | 137 |

Had headache first two days, no other side effects except only sleep about 4 hours a night but feel rested. Anyway I've lost 10lbs so far. You do have to eat because if I don't make myself I wont. Have energy but not nervous, have high blood pressure (under control with medicines for years) no affect on it at all so far but keep it checked daily." | 10 | June 8, 2009 | 15 | 87 |
60,300 | NuvaRing | birth control | "This is the first method of birth control I ever used, and it worked fantastically. I love not having to worry about a pill every day. During the first week of use, I cried a lot, and I felt like it was for no reason. However, this was also the first week after I moved out of my house that I grew up in, so I am willing blame the move for the weepiness. The only other thing that I could even dream of complaining about is that it caused a slight amount of discharge. It's not enough to cause any problems though, or really even any inconvenience.
I never had any breakthrough bleeding, weight gain, moodiness beyond that first week, NO real issues. I suggest this to anyone who can't keep up with the pill, or even if they can!" | 9 | September 13, 2011 | 0 | 141 |
27,002 | Ultram | restless legs syndrome | "Tramadol has been very effective for my severe restless legs syndrome. However the body does seem to build tolerancce so you must increase dose from time to time. The withdrawal effects are quite severe. I found that a slow withdrawal helps ease the discomfort. I have also been on Neurontin in the past and had good results for several years but the effectiveness seems to lessen over time and increasing the dose did not help.

197,928 | Metoprolol | atrial fibrillation | "I was very happy with "Betaloc CR 190 " and then they put me on ATF Metoprolol CR 190 and it is crap because if I take 1 in the morning it only lasts about 10 to 13 hours and I end up with A/Fib at night . I never ever had this trouble with Betaloc CR190" | 3 | April 16, 2016 | 8 | 57 |
108,084 | Ethinyl estradiol / norelgestromin | birth control | "I've been on this bc for 2 months now and I love it! It's easy to remember and I don't have to swallow a pill. I found that I had some cramping and felt nauseous the first month but other then that everything was fine. It also gives me lighter and shorter periods which is a huge perk" | 9 | September 30, 2015 | 3 | 58 |
161,418 | Ortho Tri-Cyclen | birth control | "I love this birth control! I've been on it for about 2 months. The first month was rough. I was very gassy, moody, my boobs were so tender (still kinda are) and I spotted for a week then a heavy painful period for another week. However it was so worth how great it's been since getting past that first month! My face is clearer, my hormones are in check, my boobs are bigger but I haven't gained weight anywhere else, and I'm not pregnant! (And I don't use condoms) would definitely suggest it" | 7 | January 20, 2014 | 57 | 93 |
1,956 | Polyethylene glycol 3350 | constipation | "Works well for constipation due to Venlafaxine ER. I take Miralax every night at bedtime in hot tea, after typical day of drinking 2L water, eating an extremely high-fiber diet (veg except for fish, exclusively whole grains, cook with extra-virgin olive oil), and some walking, along with lots of tea both green and black. The Miralax helps, but still only 1 movement per day, versus 3 prior to medication. When I double the Miralax, THEN things start to approach pre-medication regularity." | 9 | April 8, 2012 | 36 | 81 |
140,905 | Escitalopram | anxiety | "Hi, I have been taking 5mg escitalopram for two months,my anxiety is lower, but I have headfog, racing thoughts and I can't concentrate. Also I had insomnia. I don't know whether I should keep taking it because I am feeling that is doesn't work for me. My doctor says that works and I have to be positive and give it a time. I am confused and disappointed. I am in college and can't study for exams, that makes me more negative and depressed :/" | 5 | January 14, 2016 | 5 | 84 |
156,789 | Dulaglutide | diabetes, type 2 | "Starting on day one, I was using the bathroom at least six times a day, with the urge to go hitting me suddenly and urgently, with the end product (pardon me) being a thin gruel. I had no appetite, which made it harder to drink enough water to keep up with my fluid loss. By day three I was nauseated and so dehydrated that my blood pressure dropped, leaving me weak and dizzy. That's when the vomiting started. The worst it got: one sip of water had me throwing up until nothing came out and then dry-heaving to the brink of exhaustion. I was almost completely bedridden for two days, and only just recovered today, having survived on sips of Gatorade. I'm amazed the FDA approved Trulicity. It felt more like rat poison than a promising new drug." | 5 | April 14, 2016 | 30 | 138 |
201,575 | Zoloft | obsessive compulsive disorde | "I can remember being on this for just two months last year. What did improve while I was taking it was my concentration--I started reading every book in sight. I stopped taking the Zoloft because I thought it made me sick to my stomach and also gave me tics. I guess I should have waited out the side effects because I thought my ability to read was fantastic." | 9 | January 30, 2013 | 48 | 68 |

No antacids - if necessary 4 hrs before pill or 4 hrs. after the pill. Not touching them. No upset stomach, mild headache but the tiredness is a killer. Told me to "hang in there" and believe me, I will!! This has been a blessing. Didn't even know I had Hep C and doc told me, you usually don't until something else goes wrong with you. Stick with it all you people ~ as difficult as it may seem. Can't wait for blood test!!! Even if its undetectable, was told you have to finish the treatment!!" | 9 | September 6, 2015 | 45 | 142 |

155,148 | Metronidazole | bacterial vaginitis | "After bouts of odor, discharge, and itching that I tried to rectify using OTC meds and natural remedies, I went to my OB/GYN and was diagnosed with BV. While this med has helped immensely, the SE are the reason I rated it 9. By day 3 the odor was not as strong (almost gone but I could still faintly smell it). From there things got better symptom wise, but as far as SE that's been hell from day one. Headaches, nausea, bloating, increased appetite which led to weight gain, looser stools, and overall tiredness are all of the issues I experienced taking the 500mg twice daily for a week prescription. Even though I missed dosage times occasionally due to the SE , I took the medicine and finished in 9 days. Next time I will get the gel. Not as bad" | 9 | May 1, 2016 | 5 | 141 |
137,883 | Enbrel | psoriasis | "I am 40 and have had psoriasis since kindergarten. I have tried every drug and treatment under the sun. I was hesitant to try Enbrel because of the side effects listed on the commercial. My psoriasis became so bad, after speaking with doctor who assured me side effects were rare I tried it. WOW! I am in week five and the psoriasis on my stomach, which was the most severe, are nearly gone. My rear end is clear. My scalp looks better. I have many, many small ones on my legs and they aren't as red or as thick. My elbows still have psoriasis but not as thick. The only side effect I can see is that my foot twitches every once in a while and I can't honestly say it is the medication. I LOVE this. Only con, in the beginning the injection hurt." | 10 | May 2, 2009 | 21 | 145 |

52,228 | Adipex-P | weight loss | "I've been on phentermine since Sep 2, 09. I was 291lbs. today, still taking it, I'm 248lbs.That's a loss of 43lbs & there are no words. For about 6 weeks I didn't take the drug because of certain reasons. Coupled with exercise, running 1.5 miles 3-4 times & doing Zumba 4-5 times a week & watching what I eat. I see the results & I'm very proud. I've found that phentermine is not meant as a simple, quick fix, but is to help change your body AND mind so that you can maintain because a change of mind has taken place once you are off. I suggest exercising when you start taking it because the weight will come off even if you do nothing, and that can be deceiving in that you won't think you have to work as hard and you'll gain it back plus some when you stop." | 10 | March 25, 2010 | 74 | 150 |
142,636 | Levonorgestrel | abnormal uterine bleeding | "I've had the mirena for 6 weeks for heavy prolonged periods. Insertion wasn't painful, just uncomfortable. I had cramping for a couple of days after. I have had constant bleeding everyday since insertion although not anywhere near on the scale I was having pre mirena. However since insertion I have noticed I have very low mood, really bad anxiety, greasy skin, joint pain, very tearful, hair loss and hair growth on face is worse (I do have PCOS) I generally do not feel like myself. Would not recommend this to anyone, yet I have friends who love it." | 3 | July 31, 2017 | 4 | 98 |

Since then I've had an HSG text, been on Metformin and am now to my limit of 2,000 mgs, Clomid, and was on Prometrium (progesterone) this last month. This last month my doctor also put me on a pill again to get my period. My periods have always been irregular. This morning 6/23/15 I took a pregnancy test and it was negative.

14,557 | Buprenorphine / naloxone | opiate dependence | "I had always "played' with pills but when I started getting kidney stones back to back I found a pain management doctor who would prescribe anything I wanted to me. It became VERY easy for me to fake a stone at the hospital so they could give me dilauad in my i.v. (that was my all time favorite). I was on 30 mg of oxycodone 3 times a day and 10mg of percocet 3 times a day too. This went on for what seemed like forever. I decided one day to deal with the kidney pain and to get clean. I went to the local doctor who does prescribe suboxone and wow! What a difference? I have been on them now for almost a month and I feel amazing. I have been slowly weening myself off.

I was on the pill for almost a year I felt fine but I wasn't always on time about taking it so I switched over to the implanon. For 10 months I got my period non stop. For some weeks it would be a light period, but still a period. Then for another month or so I would get heavy heavy periods with cramps that made it so hard to get up from bed. Which I had never experienced!!! I was so hard for me to want to have sex. I don't recommend this AT ALL and to top it off my Dr. didn't want me to get off it. Saying they could just give me ANOTHER HORMORNAL PILL to stop the bleeding. HECK NO!!" | 1 | June 6, 2017 | 9 | 139 |

2,792 | Belbuca | chronic pain | "I hate reading reviews before I take a med because it does have a placebo affect on you whether it’ll work or not. (If you’re doing this, stop! Just take the meds and see how it works for YOU.) But I was put on belbuca after misusing Vicodin from chronic pain and disc replacement surgery. Vicodin helped but dosage wasn’t enough and I abused it. But belbuca Never helped my pain. Started at 300 and had WDs so bumped to 600mg and helped WDs, but not pain. I had break through meds but Belbuca renders them useless. I ended up taking more BT meds trying to help pain on bad days but then sent red flags to my doc. He didn’t seem to get Belbuca did not work for me. Withdrawals are GOD AWFUL." | 2 | October 20, 2017 | 2 | 134 |
64,865 | Sertraline | panic disorde | "Ok, Here I go. Thank God for Zoloft. I'm 39 and started suffering panic attacks that would last 2-3 months. I was put on a line of meds which didn't help until I was prescribed Zoloft. I started at .25mg for a week and after day 2 my anxiety started to lift and my panic was going away. Its now been 1 year and I have not experienced anymore Panic episodes or anxiety. I can't tell you enough how much it helped me. I thought I was doomed as nothing worked and I couldn't go on feeling they way I was. I didn't want to be left alone as I felt so scared about everything. My mind was a spinning wheel of negative thoughts and I kept spiralling deeper and deeper until I was given zoloft." | 10 | April 21, 2015 | 134 | 136 |
201,113 | Zoloft | post traumatic stress disorde | "I've been taking Zoloft for about half a year now on 200mg. I'm not taking it for depression, it's being used in conjunction with other things for rage and anger, hypervigilence, as well as dissociation.
I've been pretty lucky with this medication because I experience absolutely zero side effects, in fact I could probably take a higher dose right now although I'd rather stick with the minimum and use coping techniques.
I still feel like "me" on Zoloft. In fact I feel more like myself then I have in a long time. I still feel my emotions and everything, although I experience them in a healthy, normal way. I don't experience all of the irrational, exaggerated, awful feelings and sensations I used to, in a good way.
I feel normal again." | 10 | May 19, 2017 | 13 | 131 |

AKA stay home from school, miss work, hide from the world for 2 weeks 2-4 times a year.. I was prescribed this medication in my late teens and it truly is a miracle drug! I take it as soon as I feel a tingle, or as soon as I see something pop up and it will either A: Get rid of it before it pops up, or B: limit it to the size it is currently and make it go away fast!

Chronic pain scrambles the brain. I was already on fluoxetine, but felt I was losing ground. Then my docor put me on nortriptyline. GREAT results. I feel better mentally, and the medicine somehow "soothes" inflamed spinal-cord areas. NOT my imagination-over the years, doctors tried several medicines for this, none worked. This one helped both the depression AND nerve-impulses at the discs/spinal-cord." | 9 | February 2, 2011 | 276 | 87 |

Azor works, blood pressure is down side effects minimum... Give it a shot!

I stopped taking it and the uric acid went up 4.5 but the pain was still coming back, not exactly gout attack but I know the kind of pain on my joins, so I started to take it again.

First month ok, hardly any side effects. By the second month I started having severe mood swings to the point me and my BF considered counseling. I cried for no reason, got irritated over every little thing. I also gained weight around my waistline, despite I'm a very very active gal going to the gym 3-4x a week plus super healthy diet. Hair loss and low sex drive were also something I noticed.
The worst thing I would say was the ANXIETY ATTACK, it was getting really bad that I was literally gasping for air and having chest pain on a daily basis. I finally decided I had enough of all this. Definitely NOT recommended!!!!" | 1 | April 23, 2016 | 5 | 137 |

Have always relied on Dulcolax (or generic equivalent) for relief when the need arises for use. One tablet w/tall glass of water before bed is all that take - on rare occasions have taken 2 but again that is very rare. Normally 6-8hrs after I will have such a grand movement w/another sometime after that. Always a good feeling of being flushed out of what was sitting rotting inside me. Can't say that have experienced the many bad side effects that have read by others posted. At the most I will get some minor cramps but they pass by quickly tho will say that Dulcolax does cause me to pass gas as the time nears for movement.." | 10 | April 29, 2017 | 8 | 133 |

This year has been extremely difficult no major incidents but my depression was changing from day to day. No ups but plenty of downs. Finally couldnt cope and pressured the dr to give me something for mood swings in addition to my sertraline.
I can say I have felt the best I ever had in 20 years!!!! My mood before was a 4/10 and now its a 7/10 which is great for me. I even seem to get excited about life which I havent done for years.
It does make me hungry but I dont care as this so far is a life saver. Also gives me a very dry mouth so need lots of water." | 10 | August 29, 2016 | 26 | 144 |

I've never had problems with depression untIl about two years ago. I was low in energy, didn't want to do much and I gained 25lbs in the last year. My hair also started coming out. At first I thought the depression, hair loss, and weight gain was just me but after reading other comments I see that it wasn't. I just got mine removed today and it's such a relief. I'm going to give my body a rest to normalize itself before I opt for the pill which is what I had my doctor prescribe me." | 5 | May 1, 2017 | 10 | 138 |

After trying multiple medications and seeing multiple doctors, I FINALLY found a Psychiatrist that suggested I try an MAOI. Parnate has been a miracle for me. It knocked my depression out of the park! I've been on Parnate for 3 months (with a combination of Lamictal) and my life has completely changed for the better. I feel like the person that I want to be.
If you're reading this and suffer from crippling depression, I would highly suggest you talk to a doctor about taking Parnate." | 9 | October 27, 2014 | 49 | 122 |
193,094 | Dextroamphetamine | adhd | "I absolutely love Dexedrine! It doesn't give me the crash that adderall has and it really keeps me focused on the tasks at hand. I was able to throughly apply for a gig and landed it and I wonder if I would on the alternatives.
I hear they're trying to rid away of Dexedrine to switch over to Vyvance but since that drug has no generic and the two are about 99% similar I'm guessing it is more for profit reasoning.
I'm telling everyone switch over you won't regret it. 1 15mg er/day should be the max for those considering switching. I read somewhere on here a doc prescribed about 100mg which is too much and the reasoning for your manic state.
Go for trusted generic brands like Sandoz and Mallinkrodt. Teva IS THE WORST. " | 10 | September 29, 2016 | 18 | 136 |
126,015 | Viibryd | major depressive disorde | "I have taken many antidepressants as an adult and since I have been on this one I have not been depressed. We all know what it feels like to not go on. I have no side effects. I feel healthy and normal. I wake up every day no matter what struggles and I have not felt "down," like depressing down in over a year. I love it. I also take Klonopin for my anxiety on the side. I don't need as much though. Viibryd works wonders!" | 9 | July 23, 2014 | 115 | 86 |
