This is the worst medicine I've ever taken. I was in more pain than before after taking the medicine, and maybe got 3 hours sleep and an entire day of not being able to move due to intense abdominal pain. I decided to stop taking the medicine after 3 days.

Piracetam

4.6	Effectiveness
5.7	Side Effects
5.7	Holistic Benefits

I started Piracetam on a Friday. I felt like I slept better and during waking hours, I didn't stress as much about things. I was very "mellow". I started getting a sore throat like a cold on Saturday. Then on Sunday afternoon, I felt a little feverish. By Sunday night, I had moderate fever and vomiting. I was in bed with fever for 24 hours. I discontinued Piracetam after Sunday lunch. By Tuesday afternoon, I was still weak, but able to eat and had no fever. Now on Wednesday, I have... View full comment

Amrix

User Ratings:
4.4	Effectiveness
6.1	Side Effects
5.4	Holistic Benefits

After trying several other medications, Amrix was the first to relieve the intense constant pain in my head. I was extremely tired the first couple of weeks after I started taking it. Especially in the first week, I couldn't even trust myself to take care of my children because I couldn't keep my eyes open. I also had problems with my face breaking out and extreme dry mouth. I tried to stop taking the pill after 3 weeks, but my headaches came back the next day. I have now been on Amrix f... View full comment

I did not expect to bleed for 2weeks and 4days. The cramps were intense, and lasted for 2days. The intial bleeding was horrific, i never expected to bleed so heavily in such a short period of time. You definitely need to be prepared. The inital nausea wasn't that bad.
