Pharmacutical company symptoms and conditions

I've taken loratab for several different things, after Birth of my son, after gallbladder surgery, sinus infections and so on.. This may sound odd, and I will probably get alot of backlash on this issue.. But it makes me happy.. I would seriously like to see a doctor.. or even a pharmaceutical company hold a drug trial on how laratab can be used as an anti-depressant, I've suffered from depression almost all my life.. and have been on a plethera of anti-depressants, they always seem to work for the first month or so, and then "wear" off so to speak.. I have to either up my dose.. or change all together.. I don't have to do that with loratab

When I take it, I don't have any crazy side effects.. in fact just the oppisite.. I feel i have much more clearity, I'm happy and just have an all around "good" feeling. When at work.. I feel I give my co-workers and customers the best of my abilities.. and not to mention my home life.. I'm a better mother.. daughter.. sister.. and friend.. and what's really funny I don't have that "urge" perople say they get if addicted to a drug.. I can go for months without it and i'm fine.. but much better when i do have it..

I had the Mirena put in last December (2007). After having my 2nd child in October I figured it'd be a while, if ever, before I wanted to get pregnant again. Of course all I had seen and heard until this point was the positive side of the IUD. I had the Mirena in for about 7 weeks and in this time had LOADS of strange side effects. I had flu-like symptoms EVERY single day, my hair started falling out, lower back, neck, and abdominal pain. I also started having tingling pain and numbness in both my hands- especially when I was in bed at night. After visiting my PCP I was told I had carpel tunnel syndrome; strange cause I'd already been a stay at home mom for almost 2 years so I wasn't doing anything different. I was worn out, moody, and beat down with ZERO libido to boot. Having 2 kids under 2 I figured it was from chasing them around all day- until I read the posts on this site and thought maybe it wasn't just me. When I talked to the nurse at my gyno's office (we'd become friends after seeing so much of each other with my 2 kids close in age) she told me that half of the patients that get the Mirena get it taken out soon after and the reason they push it as a "good" form of birth control is because they get a decent kick back from the pharmaceutical company.

I've now been off the Mirena for 3+ weeks and feel like myself again. Even with 2 little ones my energy is back and I don't feel sick anymore! How the FDA can even allow this product on the market is beyond me. I'm sure sooner than later a lawsuit will be filed against Bayer!

i took 4 loratab today for the first time all together it was 150 mg and i had no side affect except numbness and happyness i think its great and id try it again even tho i dont take it for pain

I was prescribed Levaquin 750 for 5 days and only realized it when I went back to the pharmacy as I could not read the doctors writing on the script. I recalled my sister having a very bad experience with this drug hallucinating, as well as being disoriented. I took one before I confirmed with her this was the drug she had problems with and my heart rate has shot up to 110 per minute normally 78. I am on blood pressure medication which I took after the Levaquin about four hours so I hope it counteracts it. The doctor was told of the medication and conditions I have and went ahead and gave it to me anyway.Needless to say tomorrow I am calling the DR and asking for someting else. The public truely are the pharmacutical company guinea pigs.

i Started Yasmin about 5 months ago. I recently noticed a very thin spot in my hair. I then also noticed my hearing had not been very good and I even went as far as to make an appt to have my hearing tested. I thank god I came across this website. I have felt like a madwoman my emotions are up and down and i feel like I am raging all the time and little stupid things have set me off. To make matters worse I have had no sex drive at all and feel bloated. I am reeling right now realizing that i have been having a hard time sleeping at night and wake up drenched in sweat. I have a week left to go before my period and I am not starting a new pack. I will look at new options. I will keep you all posted. I am thing class action law suit. we women dont deserve to be caught between a pharmacutical company and the doctors we trust. you must question everything!

I was diagnosed in 1996 with depression by the VA. My depression became worse, and in 2001 Sept. I was also diagnosed with not only depression but also Bipolar disorder. I was prescribed Olanzapine for three months. When I noticed during that time I was feeling dizzy all the time, my vision was blurry, I was extremly thirsty, and urinating all the time. I stopped taking the med. after three months time because I felt it was the Olanzapine that was making me sick. By then it was to late. I went back to my doctor with the same side effects described earlier and she told me to get some blood work done right away, I got the blood work done and come to find out my blood sugars were up to 590 range. I was told I had diabetes. Even though this particular medicine has diff. effects with each individual person I strongly advise anyone who is thinking about taking it not too. I was on oral meds to control the diabetes, but now I am taking insulin shots twice a day!! I am presently pending a lawsuit with VA and the Pharmacutical company. Please be careful taking this lethal drug!!!!!!!!
