I have been on Cephalexin for 7 days. I am getting headaches that don't go away after taking Tylenol (I took 4 Tylenol this morning within 2 hours because headache was so bad and Tylenol did not help) and I am beyond tired- I am a normally very high energy person and for the past 2 days I literally can not keep my eyes open. Today at 12 noon I had to give in and take a nap (which I never do!) and woke up 4 hours later. Upon waking I could go back to sleep and sleep 12 more hours. I am considering stopping this med. I am taking it for a minor surgery that I had last week but I am exhausted!

My name is Bobby and I've been dating a girl who has been through some tough times. She took my advice and started taking an antidepressant, Celexa, 5 weeks ago. 3 Weeks after starting the Celexa, we began to have the relationship I always knew we could. I love her so much and for one week I was the Happiest man in the world.
Unfortunately, against my advice she started taking Yaz a week after beginning the Celexa. I told her that beginning two new drugs at once will eliminate the ability to identify which drug is causing which affects whether they be positive or negative.
After 3 weeks of Celexa and 2 weeks of Yaz, my girlfriend started acting alive and excited about life again!! She even started losing weight because of her beautiful new-found energy and zest for everything. She was playful, she was laughing, she was sexual, she was the girl of my dreams and we fell more in love than ever.
One week later (After 4 weeks of Celexa, and after 3 weeks of Yaz) a monster emerged who no longer can stand the sight of me. She doesn't want me to touch her, hug her, or even kiss her. She doesn't sleep at night. She screams and yells at me for being annoying when I'm doing things that once made her smile with love in her eyes.
I found an apartment today and decided to move out... I have never been treated so poorly by anyone in my life before. She's aggressive and verbally abusive. She's been complaining that people are talking about her and she seems paranoid. I made the mistakes of taking steroids a while back and I can tell you she is the monster now that I was then and both Yaz and steroids affect hormone levels and I'm telling you I just can't believe how many relationships this drug must be ruining.
Tonight I took the Yaz and threw all of it out. She got mad at me because she's afraid that she'll stop losing weight... I mean she's just completely lost perspective. I showed her pictures of us happy together and she still chose losing 3 more pounds over our relationship. I'm losing my mind... Just a few weeks ago she reminded me again that she wants to marry me and give me babies. Where has my future wife and future mother of my children gone??

I'M LIVING IN FEAR THAT SHE WILL FIND A WAY TO GET MORE YAZ B4 SHE'S BEEN OFF LONG ENOUGH TO SEE WHAT IT'S TURNED HER INTO.

SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!!

I have been on toprol 200mg daily for over 5 yrs. I have a hypertropic cardiomyopathy heart condition and it has been my wonder drug. Prior to toprol I was on atnenol (spelling??) and it really made me tired.
At first biggest side effects was the wild and colorful dreams. I'm talking was that real or a dream. Over time the dreams became less and less frequent and intense.
Overall the weight gain has not been a big factor but I don't seem to have the high energy levels I used to have.
I'm not sure if it is the drug or not, but I have acquired a wicked sweet tooth.........

I have twin 10 yr old daughters who have been on singulair for about a year. They were always high energy girls..but they, over the course of thr past year, have become violent, aggressive and bordering on hyperactivity. They are also on Advair(all of this for asthma, of course). We are going thru testing trying to figure out where this violent behavior is coming from. Could it be their meds..or just the singulair?????

In August of this year, we started giving my son 4 mg of Singulair daily for his asthma and seasonal allergies. We just found out about the connection between hyperactivity and Singulair the other day and now everything makes sense. This fall, we noticed his activity level jumped up several notches, he couldn't seem to sit still anymore and would be bouncing off the walls from morning to night. He was pretty high energy before but this was VERY VERY high energy. He could barely sit still to eat meals. He became quite dramatic and tantrums became common - he wasn't the easy-going kid he used to be. And he started waking up in the middle of the night, sometimes sobbing, where previously he had always been a very sound sleeper.

Three days ago we learned about these possible hyper side effects of Singulair and two nights ago we stopped giving it to him. Last night he sat down and actually ate a good dinner with us. This morning, he seemed a tad bit calmer. We are hoping the rest of the effects will go away soon. Needless to say - no more Singulair for him. We'll find other ways to deal with his allergies and asthma.

I have been on Bupropion SR for about a month now. I had severe depression stemming from past incidents that I was unable to get over on my own. I started at 150 mg once a day and the first 2 days I felt nothing. The third day I caught myself grinning and laughing! However, on the 5th day, my doctor upped it to 150 mg twice a day. After the fourth day of that I started feeling irritable and tired. After a week of it I started feeling dizzy, nausea, anxiety, shaky, and just generally weird. I went to a different doctor and told her the symptoms and she reduced me to 100 mg twice a day. The dizziness is gone but the irritability is still present although manageable if I just think before I speak. I also have lost about 5 pounds. I notice that some days I have no appetite and others I am ravenous. The worst side effect so far is the anxiety. I have never had it before and now when the least little event or conflict is present I start getting a churning feeling in my stomach and restlessness. As for insomnia, I do stay up too late but once I force myself into bed I pass right out. I get sleepy around 2:00pm which is when I take the second pill and sometimes can't stop myself from falling asleep at my computer at work. My dreams were more intense and lucid when I was on 300mg a day but they seem to have gone back to normal now.

Six weeks ago, I took prednisone for ten days for joint pain and swelling (both hands, both knees, both feet etc. ). the swelling subsideded the fourth day. I lost 5 pounds of fluid weight gain. Ten days after stopping predisone, I had a second onset of swelling and pain with 5 pounds of weight gain. I took 40mg two days and lost the 5 pounds and severe pain. I also lost depression that has been with me 45 years. I experienced elation sustained for the first time since I was 18 years old. I am 63, retired, blessed with a good life within a prison of secret depression. I cut the dose to 10mg per day and saw a rheumatoligist who ordered 15 blood tests today and continued the 10mg dose. the elation continues and is joined by high energy. Is this a gift from God or what? Fred

WOw...Ive been depressed about weight gain, despite healthy eating and exercise. More alarming my finger joints ache so much I've been worried aout early arthritis or Lymes. We thought this was our family miracle after moving to the farm. My daughters seem fine, but I'll be back to the allergist anyway. Most disturbing, the "SIDE EFFECTS LIST" w/ the perscription is very short and lists none of these. I almost didn't even type the search, thought it was all "in my head"! Anyone know if it passes through nursing? My son is high-energy/hyper, but only nurses once daily now. I'm labeled "problem mom" at the peds, guess I should have been more vigilant w/ my own and older kids meds
