Bisoprolol Fumarate

User Ratings:
3.5	Effectiveness
7.9	Side Effects
4.2	Holistic Benefits

I added 5MG of this, then cut that in half, then cut THAT in half, to 10MG Lisinopril. My BP crashed (83/62), my resting heart rate was 50, and I felt as if I had to remind myself to breathe. I run 2.25 miles a day, this drug killed my sex drive totally (and I only took it for TWO WEEKS), I went back to 1/2 of a 25MG Toprol even though I hate that drug too, because my BP for some reason suddenly increased. THESE DRUGS are most likely worse than high BP, I don't trust any of them. They art... View full comment

Microgestin FE

Unfortunately, I have had a real problem with hormonal birth control. I'm currently taking Microgestin, and while I'm kind of miserable on it, it's not as bad as what I experienced with Ortho. My only real complaint is that I have developed contact lens intolerance, and get red, gritty, painful eyes every time I wear my lenses for more than one day at a time. My Dr., of course, doesn't think it's from the pill, but would rather send me to a series of unnecessary (and expensive) tests. G... View full comment

NuvaRing

5.9	Holistic Benefits

I've ttried several pills over the past couple of years due the awful cramps I get before my period and none of them worked for me. One, I'm a highschool student, so my schedule is kind of all over the place, making it hard for me to take the pill a the same time every day, or remember. Two, I had constant spotting on most, instant weight gain, my skin got worse. I hated the way the pill made me feel. It was generally just a mess. 4 months ago I was put in the nuvaring as an alternative, and... View full comment

Everytime I have a cold I take it. It works very well for me, and makes me feel much better. The taste is horrible but its worth feeling better.
