Venlafaxine Hydrochloride

User Ratings:
3.6	Effectiveness
5.8	Side Effects
5.1	Holistic Benefits

When I forget to take it on time, I get little "electric" shocks, I used to get them when I was starting on the medication as well. I don't really feel like it's doing much for me (if anything at all), I have it paired up with mianserin hydrochloride (20 - 30+ mg / day in the evenings depending on how tired I am - how much rest I've been skipping on previous days) which seems great. I don't think they complete each other, or are working as any kind of combination. But so far I've no... View full comment

Prevpac

User Ratings:
2.2	Effectiveness
7.7	Side Effects
4	Holistic Benefits

I have bacteria in my stomach and was prescribed prevpac. I have had just about every imaginable side effect or reaction including constant headache, diarrhea, nausea, awful metallic taste in mouth, small rash that did go away within 2 days, mild itching, yeast infection, muscle cramps and pains, and awful dizziness. I still have 4 days left and I really don't know if I'll make it. Good luck to those who take it! I normally don't react to medications with every single side effect listed, but... View full comment

Candex

5.6	Holistic Benefits

I've been searching everywhere to see if anyone else has had the same violent physical reaction to Candex. I am happy I found this page with a couple of posters who have had identical side effects. A year ago, I was put on a regimen of vitamins, fish oil, probiotics, etc., and completely cleaned up my diet. It was recommended that I also introduce Candex, which I did. Anything to feel better! Unfortunately, I wound up feeling much, much worse. After three days of incredible stomach cram... View full comment

I like that I get a few more hours of sleep, although still not the necessary amount needed.

Claritin RediTabs

User Ratings:
6.5	Effectiveness
3.8	Side Effects
5.8	Holistic Benefits

Claritin RediTabs are my preferred allergy medicine choice, especially during spring when everything's in bloom. It worked very quickly and I didn't need water to take them because they are dissolvable tablets. It was extremely effective. My severely runny nose went away, I stopped sneezing, and my watery eyes cleared up. I had a little bit of a dry nose, but I think that was mostly from using too many tissues.

Vyvanse

User Ratings:
6.4	Effectiveness
6.7	Side Effects
7.2	Holistic Benefits

Vyvanse is the best medication I have tried for ADD. I have some insomnia, which I could deal with and which may go away over time. I have taken the drug for 9 days now. My major problem is urgency to urinate, frequent urination and no relief. This awful feeling I will not be able to abide. I have submitted a sample to check for a UTI, but I probably don't have one. I noticed that those symptoms disappeared completely when I did not take a Vyvanse for a day and returned immediately when... View full comment
