User Comments about Telfast

10 Feb 2018	Initially phlegm-free for 1 week, then the symptoms of Post Nasal Drip came back. Now, after 2 weeks, experienced dry mouth and throat. Reduce dosage to once in the evening. However, clear nasal discharge and chronic cough resumes. Symptoms unpredictable... —Posted by Myozen Respond Display Name: Email: (Required) Notify me of new comments Email me monthly survey results Sending... I agree to the Terms of Use
30 Apr 2013	After years of taking Telfast I still have the same allergy (perhaps to a lesser degree) ... Also wonder if Telfast can have any thing to do with "ears ringing"? —Posted by 1 Carlitos Respond Display Name: Email: (Required) Notify me of new comments Email me monthly survey results Sending...

29 Apr 2013	I am concerned about the erratic heart beats and high blood pressure which has occurred in the last 12 months with no family history and my own personal lifelong history of slow heart beats 45 - 50bpm and low blood pressure. I have suddenly developed a fluctuating heart rate at rest from 87 to 107bpm with high blood pressure —Posted by Anonymous Respond Display Name: Email: (Required) Notify me of new comments Email me monthly survey results Sending...

07 Jan 2013	I am definitely positive about NEGATIVE side effects of Telfast on my body, I've lost appetite, I lost weight, I had severe gastrointestinal problems, problems with bowels, I had severe skin rash on my bottom so I could hardly seat which was most problematic on tha job where I should have seat for 8-9 hours per day. I was completely without energy so I should have take a sick-leave, I felt like an empty balloon. I was so disordered that I put a gasoline into my car and drive off the gas station without paying for it which I did after a police came after me and I almost swear I didn't do it. Eventually I realised that it must be Telfast that is making me such unbelievable problems and after I quit taking it, I slowly started to get better. Terrible experience!!! —Posted by Anonymous Respond Display Name: Email: (Required) Notify me of new comments Email me monthly survey results Sending... I agree to the Terms of Use
15 Sep 2011	I have been ever grateful to Telfast as a sufferer of Urticaria and found it has kept it under control —Posted by Anonymous Respond Display Name: Email: (Required) Notify me of new comments Email me monthly survey results Sending... I agree to the Terms of Use
