I just recently started using Claritin for my allergies. I didnt really notice a profound effect on my spring allergies, but I did feel slightly better. Still, i did not feel significantly better after taking the drug.

Before taking Topamax I had about 3-4 serious migraines a month--nausea, sensitivity, etc--and almost daily minor ones.

I have been having severe heavy periods... View full comment

I would not have been able to do this if I was not able to be flexible with my time. It got to a point where I had to stop anyway because of the frequency and severity. About a week later, I tried it again one morning and within an hour had a violent vomiting episode. I stopped. I researched Candex and heard nothing about vomiting,... View full comment

I think it's more useful since I do take it everyday. I have been less sick, than I have been in the past.
