Tri-Sprintec

User Ratings:
4.8	Effectiveness
6.8	Side Effects
5.2	Holistic Benefits

I started taking Tri Sprintec in 2007, because I went to college and our health center only had generics (I had previously been on Ortho Tri Cyclen for about 3 months prior). I took Tri Sprintec for about 3 years, and was fine, aside from the abysmally low libido. Last month, however, during my last week of active pills in my pack, I almost completely lost my appetite; the very smell of food would make my stomach turn. I also starting having severe anxiety and depression, I was paranoid, and... View full comment

Etizolam

User Ratings:
6.2	Effectiveness
7	Side Effects
6.7	Holistic Benefits

I was prescribed Etizolam ,5 mg for my CBT sessions of Agoraphobia. As of now, the therapist and I are only working on the lower range of anxiety inducing situations (I was asked to rate anxiety situations). The medicine has helped in the sense I am able to face these situations and some of the physical symptoms (legs shaking etc) have disappeared. However for the higher range anxiety situations, it has not been very effective. My biggest problem with Etizolam is that it is causing me drowsin... View full comment

I suffered head trauma with multiple lacerations to my face and lips, along with severe swelling and bruising. I was prescribed vicodin to relieve my pain. When I took the vicodin I felt less socially inhibited and talked much more frequently than normal.

Hydrochlorothiazide

User Ratings:
7.1	Effectiveness
3.2	Side Effects
6.2	Holistic Benefits

Her blood pressure has dropped significantly since taking this medication. It used to be almost 200/ 90 and now her blood pressure is about 140/80, which is still a bit higher than normal, but still much lower than it used to be. She feels satisfied with how the pills are working, but does not enjoy having to take them everyday.

Gardasil Human Papillomavirus Vaccine

User Ratings:
-1.3	Effectiveness
7.2	Side Effects
1.8	Holistic Benefits

My 14 year old daughter has taken 2 of the 3 recommended dosages of the Gardasil shots. Her symptoms began just days after her first shot, but I attributed it to an extremely painful mentrual cycle. Her symptoms after the second shot also began within days. She began with cold-like symptoms, fever, cough, runny nose, shortness of breath and pneumonia along with sever abdominal pain. She since has experienced severe joint pain, tingling in limbs (especially legs and feet) back pain and man... View full comment

Advair Diskus

3.8	Side Effects
7.1	Holistic Benefits

Advair has improved my breathing greatly. However, I will say that it also has made me more irritable and sometimes upon standing a little dizzy and off balance.
