I posted a question to anyone who used Tri-Sprintec before, but now it's been several months & I'd like to let everyone else know how it's worked for me! Tri-Sprintec has been the best birth control I've ever taken. I have been on other birth controls over the years, and up to this point Yasmin was good but I still had some side effects. I've just started my fourth month on Tri-Sprintec, and I feel more like myself again. I don't have any crazy mood swings, my skin has cleared up, my periods are regular again & my appetite has gone back to normal. I recommend Tri-Sprintec to anyone who is looking for an affordable & reliable birth control (it's offered at the Wal-Mart pharmacy for $9 a month if you don't have insurance.)

Been taking 20mg Omeprazole for 28 days now, (took last one this morning). 1 week into using this medicine I developed a very itchy skin. It started under breastbone then around to the middle of my back, I thought I had Shingles but it can't be as the ichyness is now all over my body with a nasty looking rash especially on my chest, back & legs. I do have a GP appointment soon, but I don't want to take this prescription anymore as the itching is driving me mad, keeping me awake at nights. I just hope the symptoms this was prescribed for don't come back, if they do I dread to think what they will prescribe next as the pain I was suffering was pretty awful as well. I found that bathing in Oilatum helped sooth the itch but not for long!

I had my Mirena IUD put in May 1st of 2007 and all the side effects that came along with it......the constant spotting, acne, itching breasts (which I thought was due to new bras that I had just purchased), nausea, depression (which I had to go back to taking Wellbutrin), no energy; tired all the time. My biggest side effect which I have not found any others to have is Allergies. I know it sounds crazy, but I have never had problems with allergies until a month and half after getting the IUD, extreme allergy symptoms, swollen glands, neck pain, very shortness of breath; to the point that I was down for a whole day here and there, I am having to take Allegra; had to get a steroid shot. Now that it is cold, I thought I would be getting break from the allergies, nope. I joined a gym hoping that it would help in giving me energy, nope.........I have talked to my Dr and the nurses that work with my gyno and they act as if I am making this stuff up. It is very frustrating when you know that your body has done a complete 360 in the wrong direction and everyone seems to think your crazy.
Well I am having my IUD taken out as soon as I can!

You are all completely 100 % right
I have a book here called the high blood pressure hoax
the lady that wrote it is 100 % right in her findings we are all living it !!!!
the list of side effects is overwhelming too many too list
I quit all hypertensive meds yes my blood pressure shot up rebound etc
but I can actually sleep and don't feel depressed and tired anymore
it may not be a good thing but id rather live with no side effects my skin is actually clearing up in 2 days from the itching, the nausea is still coming and going brain fog is clearing up as well as a ton of other horrible side effects for the first time i actually feel good .....in 2 years of taking these horrible drugs ,,,,,yes they are keeping us alive but in the long run they will kill us just as fast as the hypertension !!!!!!!!!! good luck with diet and exercise everyone I am starting it myself this weekend

I was in the hospital to have out my gallblader in April 2006,
They had it in my IV. My arm started iching right away, and in mins, you could tell where all my vains was. They were turning bright red. Then they started blustering threw my skin, in a swelled upline with the way the vains ran. My husband got the nuse who then pulled it out of my arm right away, and flushed my system as fast as she could. Then later on I had my operation.
Six months later I got a knot in the side of my neck, and I wonder if its related to that happening to me. (If it could cause my vains to look like that. I am wondering what else it did to my insides.

I have been told by my dermatologist that the extensive brown patches on one cheek and line of patches along the other cheek, along my jaw line and brown mottling around my lips are a reaction to Doxycycline after being in the sun. I was prescribed 100 mg daily about mid-May for six weeks by my family physician as an anti-malarial treatment when I went to South Africa. I took them a few days before, for the two weeks I was there, and about 4 weeks afterward.
This dermatologist had completed a plasma resurfacing on my entire face the last of December. I thought this was the reason for my skin splotching that occurred when I started being in the sun beginning in June. I'm still wondering.
Has ANYONE had the facial reaction I described from Doxycycline when combined with sun exposure?

I had a kidney removed at the age of 19. I recently had a UTI and was prescribed sulfameth/trimeth ds for it. With in an hour after taking the first pill my hands turned bright red and were uncontrollably itching and then the rest of my body started to itch, with in about 2 hours it felt like i had been beaten up my entire abdomen hurt (movement like coughing and breathing hurt the most) By the end of the day when it was time for my second dose i was beginning to get really concerned, but i took the second pill thinking i needed to protect the only kidney i have left. The next day i wasn't able to go to work i was in so much pain in the abdominal area. I also feel light headed and short of breath. I DID NOT receive a drug facts paper with the side effects like u would with any other drug ive ever gotten and im starting to wonder why. So I called the doctors office that prescribed it to me to see if it was an allergic reaction or side effect and it took them 2 days to call me in a new prescription! Heres hoping it didn't harm the kidney i have.
