I was put on Toprol xl after a visit to the Dr. because of a kidney stone. My pressure was extremely high at the time, probably more due to the fact that my kidney wasn't functioning properly with the stone. Anyway, 50 mg of the generic once a day. I was also given lipitor. I stopped the lipitor 2 months after taking it, because I felt like my body was put through a meat grinder....slowly. After 2 months on the Toprol, I have been extremely anxious, tired and my voice has suddenly become very weak. I even went to the ENT to make sure there was nothing else going on. Everything was fine. I cut the dose from 50 mg to 25 and within 2 days my voice returned to normal. The problem is my BP also went up. Anyone else have voice problems with this med?

I was prescribed Doxy for a bone coming out of my gum in my mouth and the dentist filed it down and told me to take 2-100 mg, which I did. I went out in the sun, took a shower in the evening, and my penis area started swelling up and was real red. I stopped using it immediately. Three days later it looks like it was put through a meat grinder. The rest of my body is itching and tinted red. What a nightmare!!!!! It is now day 5 and I am not getting any better. Does anybody know how long this stays in your system?

Took the perscription (500 mg, 2X daily) for three days before I started having bad side effects, then it hit me like a ton of bricks, and I quit immediately. My digestion has been real messed up, my stomach and intestines have felt as though they had a meat grinder turned on inside. My head has felt as though the top of it was going to come off. I've been off the pills for 3 days now and my head is beginning to feel better. My major complaint now is that my legs ache. My thighs mostly, but also my calves some. I had no idea I would get so sick from an antibiotic.
