Effexor XR

User Ratings:
7.1	Effectiveness
6.4	Side Effects
7.2	Holistic Benefits

When I first started Effexor (at 37.5mg), it was like a Godsend. I felt immediately like things were going to change with my life. I started to lose some of the weight I'd put on because of the depression, and my counselor and I started talking about transitioning so I wouldn't have to come in every week. But the more I was on it, the less it worked. I've gained a substantial amount of weight, my balance is always a problem and my suicidal thoughts have increased. Of course, there's no way to...

Percocet

7	Holistic Benefits

I was a baseball pitcher back in high school and a ball got hit back up the middle and off of my face. It broke 3 bones and the pain was undescribable. I could not get surgery done for a week and I was perscribed percocet for the week before and the week after my surgery. Even though it made me tired, it worked tremendously.

Vicodin

User Ratings:
6.6	Effectiveness
5.6	Side Effects
6.4	Holistic Benefits

I have been perscribed Vicodin many times in the past, but this most recent time was very odd. I have experienced many side effects such as insomnia, when I am sleeping strange dreams, and an all over itch for the first day or two that eventually subsided. Overall, this is an ok painkiller, but I find it is really only effective at the start, over the days it seems that it doesn't work as well.

Levothyroxine Sodium

User Ratings:
4.5	Effectiveness
4.8	Side Effects
5.2	Holistic Benefits

So far so good. It is a very easy drug to take. Doesnt cause any nausea/vomiting for me. I like the fact that I have to take it well before eating anything for the day and that I have to take it with a lot of water. This helps me take in a lot of water in the beginning of the day. I dislike that I have to take this for the rest of my life or else my symptoms would come back. But then again, of all drugs, this one is very mild and I have not had any adverse reactions since taking it. So better... View full comment
