Lithium Carbonate

User Ratings:
4.8	Effectiveness
7.4	Side Effects
5.8	Holistic Benefits

I have taken lithium Carbonate in different variations since 1979 for the treatment of bipolar. Each time I chose to go off it for any reason I had problems and resumed. This has by far been my saving grace to allow me to live a normal life. Any benefits far outweigh the side effects.

Alprazolam

User Ratings:
7.9	Effectiveness
4.3	Side Effects
7.2	Holistic Benefits

Alprazolam is the finest and most effective BZD for anxiety and panic on the market and also the ONLY benzodiazepine (of the triazolo- class) recommended for people with a history of depression. The problem in the USA is that there are hundreds of brands/generics, but only TWO which would be deemed acceptable quality by European patients - original branded XANAX and the GREENSTONE generics. Every single other make O have had which originated there has been complete garbage, almost as poor as... View full comment

Mirena

User Ratings:
6.7	Effectiveness
5.7	Side Effects
5.9	Holistic Benefits

I have had the Mirena for well over 6 or 7 years (I'm on my second one). During this time, my acne has been difficult to control - especially on my back and chest. I have also been experiencing some problems with finding the right words and thinking straight, though I suppose this could be a sign of getting older. But I'm only 36, so I'm not that old! I also have found that I am less patient and have more mood swings. Why do I still have the Mirena? Well, it wasn't until very recently s... View full comment

Sertraline Hydrochloride

User Ratings:

6.7	Side Effects
5.5	Holistic Benefits

Hard to say how it would affect others. Took 18 months to control my anxiety. But it works, and keeps on working. Sadly I have lost passions for films, friends, girlfriends, and sports since taking Sertraline. It does work, but there is a price to pay

Albuterol

User Ratings:

3.5	Side Effects
6.8	Holistic Benefits

I`ve been using albuterol my whole life growing up. I first started using it around age 10. I got irritated and sometimes forgetful to take it every morning and night. After a while I got use to it because it became my daily routine.Im currently 16 and still taking it. Asthma is a very hard health condition to have because of breathing problems and chest pains you may have but I must say that it changed my life completely. Thanks for albuterol because without it my life would be very complica... View full comment

Klonopin

User Ratings:
5	Effectiveness
6	Side Effects
6.4	Holistic Benefits

I spent most of my life trying to hide or avoid my problems with agoraphobia and panic attacks. I've tried everything from psych to behavior modification to many other drugs. While I am not panic attack free taking this med has reduced the frequence and severity of attacks. At the same time I still have feelings of sadness, joy, etc. Many of the other drugs tried just turned me into an emotional zombie; not the way I want to go through life. I have been on this drug for about 3 years at... View full comment
