Xanax

User Ratings:
6.8	Effectiveness
5.3	Side Effects
7.3	Holistic Benefits

I have always suffered from mild panic attacks and anxiety since my parents divorced as a child. For a long time, I thought it was just a flaw when my doctor explained to me some people just need help relaxing their nerves when it comes to stress and anxiety. I started taking xanax shortly after my daughter was born 2 1/2 years ago and have had amazing results. I usually stay around 1 at night and I find if I take it in the evenings it allows me to calm my nerves and anxiety from the day. Som... View full comment

Abilify

User Ratings:
4.6	Effectiveness
5.9	Side Effects
5.8	Holistic Benefits

Abilify made my blood pressure so low that I would have blackouts when standing up Abilify affected my body's ability to regulate body temperature. I would feel sick and feverish. My body temperature would be increased. I think the effects on blood pressure (not just orthostatic hypotension) are understated when taking abilify. I felt that this medication could have been life threatening for me.

NuvaRing

I had a bad experience with Nuva-Ring. I had originally been on the Depo-Provera shot for about 4 years before I decided to try something else. I researched and talked to my doctor, and decided to try Nuva-Ring. I liked the idea that it was more convenient than a pill, and that I could take it out at anytime unlike depo-provera where it is in your system for 3 months or longer. When I first tried Nuva-ring I felt fine the first couple of days, but then I started to experience severe lower abd... View full comment

Great medicine to clear up my acne. In conjunction with a product like benzamycin, my skin cleared up in a few weeks and I've battled acne for many years.

Hydrocodone

User Ratings:
7.3	Effectiveness
5.2	Side Effects
7.1	Holistic Benefits

Moderately effective pain relief, but wasn't strong enough for my specific case. I was in recovery from an internal-external hemorrhoidectomy, which is extremely painful. My surgeon recommended Oxycontin or Percocet, but my physician, knowing my history, advised against prescribing a more addictive drug, knowing my potential for dependency.

Simvastatin

4.6	Holistic Benefits

I'd been on Zocor for about 2 months when the painful attacks in my arms started. I went through every test known to man, heart cath, MRI, MRA, EMG, endoscopy, various blood work. All came back negative and my pain was attributed to cervical spondylosis. I was given Neurontin, then Celebrex and Tramadol by my neurologist to deal with the pain. I was never bothered by any arthritic pain before going on Zocor. I kept researching the problem and recently consulted with a rheumatologist who sugge... View full comment
