"I take this every night (3mg) in the last few years. It doesn't actually make me sleepy or keep me asleep, but I found it made me relaxed and helped with my anxiety. I take other, stronger medication to actually fall asleep. Overall I think melatonin is worth my money just for the relaxing effect alone. I ha...

"I have been on Rexulti for over 8 months. At first, I started feeling better than I've felt in years. I had more energy, laughing more, and generally felt like I was having a better quality of life. Then I started to have anxiety and felt on edge. I feel like I could go postal on anyone. I've said and done ...

"Please steer clear of this. I was on the injection for about 8 months when I unknowingly had a miscarriage. I never had my period when I was on depo and never imagined I could be pregnant until I was in the ER.

"I was on Cymbalta for about 3 months. I can't say that it really did a whole lot for me during that time. I think it may have made me feel a little more energized but I vaguely remember feeling anxious and jittery along with that. The most profound effect that this medicine did have on me was my bowels. For s...

"Klonopin has totally reduced my general anxiety, especially in social situations, and when communicating to others. It can be somewhat sedating, and also makes a decent sleep aid, although I've had better ones. So overall it's great though. Better then Ativan in my opinion. I take 1 to 3 mg daily."

"Was on Toprol XL for years which made me overly tired. Now on Bystolic for 7 months so far. Perfect. I have tons more energy and my arrhythmia was controlled along with my high blood pressure. The only side effect I've noticed is that I'm able to keep awake."
1
"The only reason I gave Plaquenil a 9 instead of a 10 is because I still need Imuran as well. Plaquenil is a great medicine but it's important to have your eyes examined every 6-12 months to check for a RARE side effect of eye damage."

"In 28 years, after dozens of antidepressants, add on's, ECT's...I've never felt so full of life. Ever. An absolute miracle this was. I was absolutely lifeless. I feel sorrow for having gone so long miserable, but blessed to have been lucky enough to have a doctor try this with me."

"This medication works wonders for me whenever I feel sick or nauseous.

"I think it's the best birth control around. I got mine inserted April 2011. You get it inserted once and don't have to worry for 3 years.
