anybody taking Xyzal should really think about taking it. This medication was so bad for me I wish they would take it off the market.

I take xanax as well as concerta and they seem to work well together. I started taking a half .025, then the whole tables and now I feel like I need a little more. That bothers me as I don't like to take medicine but do realize that I feel better, especially mentally, when I take the meds.
