12 Aug 2010 So far my experience is related to diarreha, but on talking to my eye doctor, he statede that if the medication reaches toxic levels my macula may begin to clump and I am not sure if that is a reversible condition because I am also diabetic. I am going to talk to primary care physician to see if there are other options available.

08 Nov 2008 Without it on a daily basis, I will develop hives. If I am consistent, hives will not appear. The only draw back is having to see a doctor to refill the prescription as there is not an over the counter drug that emulates it.
