Seal

I am very satisfied with Singulair. I have had no complications with it and I am able to take all of my other medications with no adverse side effects. I am confident that my asthma has improved and the use of my emergency inhaler has been greatly decreased to almost not needing it. I would be very sick without the use of Singulair.

Ortho Tri Cyclen lo was absolutely terrible for me, it exacerbated my depression exponentially. Several people commented how "out of it" I appeared and I felt confused all the time. I could not organize or accomplish routine tasks without trouble. I was feverish and incredibly emotional. I could not wait to quit this birth control.

Very pleased with the med. I fought depression for many years and took Prozac which help considerably. I began to develop dysphoria.

There were side effects for the first week. but they were not severe. Mostly a feeling of heightened awareness and anxiety. After one week, the dysphoria was lifting and what ever depression lingered from... View full comment
