I was given Dexpak for a severe sinus infection. I took it for 5 days and could no longer take the side effects, so I quit it cold turkey. I have been off from work almost the whole month because of this drug. The side effects I had from it were: • anxiety • hyperactive • uncontrolled talking • severe tremors and shakes • overheating • loss of appetite • sitting still and the room spinning • loss of vision • severe headache • loss of concentration • unable to think • no sleep • all upper body muscles tied into knots • esophagus swollen and raw • dizzy • personality change After I quit I became ravenous the next day. I ate a lot of protein and fruit. It has almost been a week since quitting. I still have problems sleeping, headaches, a swollen esophagus, sore muscles and my personality is not quite normal. Hopefully I will get back to normal.
