Benadryl Allergy

User Ratings:

5	Side Effects
6	Holistic Benefits

I got poison ivy and it was still bothering me after I put cream on it. So before going to school I took it, but it made really drowsy the whole day. I would take it again, but not before going to school.

Methylprednisolone

User Ratings:
3.9	Effectiveness
7.6	Side Effects
5.5	Holistic Benefits

Originally had severe soar throat, high temp, and fluid in ear. Received amoxilcillan and cleared up fever but still had spots then got cough. Tried augmentin and that didn't help, though upset my stomach. Trying to get rid of a cough I had for a month and fluid in the ear. I didn't want a 3rd antibiotic so was recommended I try this. If this didn't work then will try Biaxin XL PAC.

Claritin

5.3	Holistic Benefits

I have seasonal allergies that triggers my asthma. In order to control the allergies my doctor recommended Claritin. One day after taking a dose I was fine and it definately cures symptoms. The second day I took another dose the same time on an empty stomach and experienced crazy blurred vision in specific spots in my eyes. I got really nervous but within 20 mins it went away. I looked on the internet and a pilot had a similar exp. Did this happen to anyone else? I'm scared to take another... View full comment

Yaz

5.3	Side Effects
6.1	Holistic Benefits

I was taking Yaz for my acne condition and it really seemed to help over the other products that I was using. I had no side affects to Yaz when I was using it and the only problem I really had was remembering to take it everyday since I was not really used to take birth control.

Concerta

User Ratings:
6.6	Effectiveness
6.5	Side Effects
6.9	Holistic Benefits

I've been taking it for a very long time now. It works well for me. I see that it kind of wears off after about 7 hours, but I don’t feel like it’s a huge difference once the effect is gone. When I was in school it helped me concentrate and I went from being a D student to an A/B student. It just really helped me pay attention. I would really recommend this medication to anyone who has ADD/ADHD.

I'm about to start using Testim. My T-levels have dropped from 278 to 208 in since January. I've been working out with a trainer have lost 40 lbs in the past 6 months so the doc is having me try this. Honestly, I'm hoping this really helps. I've tried really hard the past few years to lose weight and keep it off and I do sense some depression. I will use this site to blog anonymously hoping that others can benefit. My plan is to apply testim at night after my shower and before I go to... View full comment
