| 1 | Bacterial Infection | Hives, head and body aches and pains (felt like lightening bolts shooting across my entire head and body). | After second dose I had a full blown allergic reaction. Hives, striking pains (felt like lightening bolts) throughout my head and body. I took Benadryl and the hives and body pains went away. Not the headaches. I've had headaches every day since that horrible life-altering day. That was 9 months ago. Drs can't find anything wrong. As far as I'm concerned, I will live with this condition for the rest of my life. The severity of my reaction is very rare. Nonetheless, this med is evil. | 40 | 1 days not sure 2X D | 5/19/2013 | 5 | Trichomoniasis | Basically none. | This antibiotic worked really well for me. I was dreading taking it after reading all the horror stories but I can honestly say, I had basically zero side effects. I didn't drink any alcohol whilst taking it of course and I was feeling MUCH better after only two days of taking it. I hope I don't have to take it again but it was very helpful to me and worked like a dream. Admittedly it tastes nasty but lets face it, we don't take medication because we like the taste do we? | M | 37 | 5 days 400mg 3X D | 5/17/2013 | 1 | BV | Bad taste, severe headache, nauseus,vomitting and tastes horrible...Metrogel is an insertable that is a million times better. | F | 44 | 1 days 500mg | 5/16/2013 | 1 | My system is so messed up. I have had a vaginal infection for almost 4 years now and I know it's because of over-prescription of this nasty drug. I am seeing a naturopath because MD's don't understand this systemic infection I have. I am spending tons of money trying to regain my health and am on such a strict diet I can't eat like a normal person. I think this drug should be banned as well. It is nothing short of POISON! | F | 42 | 90 days 1X D | 5/8/2013 | 1 | To kill the yeast infection | I bleeded | F | 22 | 3 days 30mg | 5/7/2013 | 3 | Bacterial infection | severe stomach cramps one day after I stopped taking the pill, loose stools on the day after and diarrehea on the 4th day after I finished the perscription. | F | 29 | 500 2X D | 5/3/2013 | 2 | Pelvic Inflammatory Disease | First side effect is I felt like Im going crazy, like Im going to die everytime there is panic attack, fast heartbeat rate, so depressed, loss of appetite, always tired, the urge of vommitting and pooing, bloatedness and confused to whether its the symptom im feeling or just the side effect | I never wanna take this drug anymore.. Ever! But im gonna finish it coz its needed. Its not even strong to kill bacteria but strong enough to knock you down. I hate this med. worst feeling i ever had in a medicine | F | 28 | 7 days 500mg 2X D | 4/28/2013 | 1 | c diff | The bitter taste of course. Severe abdominal pain, back pain, chest pain,nausea, and shortness of breath where like I can't get a deep breath. The fatigue and tiredness was unreal. Hardly had energy to walk to bathroom.It did help my diarrhea from 20 times a day to twice. I would not recommend this to anyone. I have been off the medicine for 5 days and am still having abdominal pain fatigue and shortness of breath. Dr said it wasn't the med. but I 100% disagree especially since I found this wed site and see what so many others went through. I have had all kinds of test to check why the pain and shortness of breath is still here everything comes back normal. But I wonder if I will ever be normal again. | The flagyl helped my c diff but what I've been through is unreal. I will never take it again. | F | 59 | 10 days 500mg 3X D | 4/19/2013 | 3 | Diverticulitis | I am on the fifth of seven days of this drug. Initially experienced no side effects but, starting on the third day, the need to urinate increased significantly. And, starting today, I have experienced dizziness; nausea; pins/needles and aches in arms, shoulders and legs; and mild headache. While I know it is unwise to stop taking an antibiotic before the prescribed dosage is complete, I do not want to continue taking this drug. | F | 60 | 7 days 500 2X D | 4/13/2013 | 3 | CDiff | I took the first prescription exactly as prescribed. At 8am, 4pm, and midnight. I like my wine, but completely stopped having any alcohol. ALthough I read you should also stop hairspray, lotions, etc. But Dr didnt tell me that. My CDiff seemed gone. Went back to a glass of wine or two, and here I am a week later, back on the Flagl for a second round. My stool test after the first round came back positive. I think I got this from taking Antibiotics. Ive had it before. Am not having any side effects. Im on a antidepressant, a beta blocker, allergy med, and .25 Xanex at bedtime. Again, no side effects that Im acutely aware of. A little tired, but that could just be the infection. | F | 56 | 2 weeks 500 MG 3X D | 4/6/2013 | 3 | C-diff | This is my second 2 week course of this. Took 1000mg daily for 14 days, finished, c-diff came back. Now taking 1500 mg daily and 1 week into it have Adema literally from head to toe. Legs and ankles so swollen it hurts. I hate it, but it's better than symptoms of c-diff! | F | 43 | 2 weeks 1500 | 3/28/2013 | 5 | c diff suspected | Metallic taste,fatigue Been on this many times for crohns gut overgrowth Always been helpful..better than the infections and damage they can do!! | F | 45 | 10 days 500mg x 2 | 3/23/2013 | 1 | Bacterial vaginosis | Nausea, dizziness, insomnia, panic attacks, fatigue, heart racing, pins and needles sensations in all four extremities, chills, dark urine, loose frequent stools, headache, vaginal yeast infection, worst drug I've ever taken. I have been off of it for 6 days now and symptoms have not improved. This drug should be banned! I googled it to see if anyone else has had this severe of a reaction and came across this site. | F | 56 | 7 days 500 | 3/13/2013 | 3 | Diverticulitis | Fatigue, fatigue and fatigue. It certainly helped chase away the lingering infection, but I have been dragging butt since starting this stuff. Been a bit grumpier than usual, fairly moody. I usually go to bed around 11 p.m., but I'm racking out around 9 while on Flagyl. Tried to do some yard work today and got about halfway done before needing a nap. | M | 40 | 21 days 500 mg 2X D | 3/9/2013 | 5 | Diverticulitis | Metallic taste, some headache, back/kidney ache but it got rid of terrible abdominal pain after 2 days. | F | 61 | 10 days 500 mg | 3/7/2013 | 4 | Vaginal Cuff inverted | tired, rapid heart rate, panic, heaviness in chest, depression, anal itch and seepage, nausa, vision floaters. | i was having all of the symptoms that I had read about but did not realize it was the meds. I just thought I was crazy. ^ days into a 7 day script I developed a UTI. I did not take day 7 dose because I then started a new antibiotic macrobin for the UTI. I am 5 weeks post op a hysterectomy. I was on Flagyl due to vaginal cuff bleeding and poss infection. My doc wanted to restore the natural flora (germs) of the vagina. | F | 33 | 6 days 2X D | 2/19/2013 | 3 | diveticulitis | very sick to my stomach, sleeplessness, irritable, overall tired & sick feeling. | i can not wait to be done with this medicine, i am also on leviquin which i only took for 2 days because with both of these medications i was really sick and tired so i stopped taking leviquin, i dont want to take this anymore but i know i need it!! Can not wait to be done, i just do little things around the house and then im back in bed because of tiredness and nausea! | F | 51 | 10 days 500 mg 3X D | 2/9/2013 | 5 | c diff | First several times horrible. Multiple multiple adverse symptoms. I have discovered a few things. News no alcohol Including hairspray, makeup,, body lotion, mouthwash, room deodorizers, hair conditioner, facial lotion, anything with even trace amounts of alcohol. Brush your tongue with lemon juice and sea salt how to remove the white gunk. Stay away from anything carbonated. Use cortisone cream to Itching areas. Never take with any other meds. Even hand lotion generally has alcohol. These precautions have greatly reduced my side effects. | F | 61 | 4 weeks 500 | 2/4/2013 | 1 | H pylori | Insomnia something awful, jitteriness, extreme fatigue, bitter taste in mouth that is still sometimes noticeable 12 days after stopping it. Vivid colorful disturbing dreams, waking up in the middle of the night with lightning bolt feeling in my head, Feeling like there is something seriously wrong with me. It's been horrible. | I was taking this with Clarithromycin and Prilosec so I'm not 100% sure this was the cause but based on everything I've read it's pretty likely.When I became sick in bed from it, I went to the emergency room because of the worst of the above symptoms - felt like my head was on fire and have consequently taken anxiety medication mainly because of the sleep issues. The only plus is it appears to have gotten rid of the infection. I will never take this again. | M | 51 | 8 days 500 2X D | 1/23/2013 | 4 | c diff | headache, fatigue, depression, itching sores on back, swollen tongue, sore throat, paranoia. | F | 60 | 3 days 500mg | 1/21/2013 | 1 | BV | Nausea diarrhea body ache runny nose sore throat thrush insomnia onset by the fifth day. Didn't get anti fungal right away (10 days after thrush onset) still dealing with treating the thrush and battling the sinus infection I got. | F | 31 | 7 days 500 mg | 1/20/2013 | 1 | BV | Constant diarrhea ; nausea, vomiting. Lost 5 lbs in a week. Neck pain & headaches which haven't ended & have been off medicine 2 1/2 weeks. Constant neuralgia in skull. Radiates in ear & jaw. Bad anxiety & crawling sensations in forehead. This RX is horrible. | F | 52 | 1 weeks | 1/18/2013 | 1 | Yeast infection | Anxiety atacks, joint pains, pins and needles, tingling sensation in fingers, weak, short of breath, throat tightening, felt ahsmatic, flu like symtoms, complete loss of appitite for a week,insomnia,mouth lesions, cause me not to sweat | M | 29 | 7 days 250mg | 1/17/2013 | 1 | Covered bowel perforation | Very My head became too heavy for my neck. Could not lay my head on pillow as skull too painful. saw wierd pictures connected with death and believed the nurses and doctors were harming me.. | Ive had this drug twice, both times were horrendous. Doctors did not seem to believe me when I complained of side effects. | F | 56 | 10 days 400 3X D | 1/10/2013 | 3 | C.DIFF Diagnosis (no poo confirmed) | DEPRESSION, CONFUSION, BRAIN FOG, PANIC ATTACKS, ANXIETY, TROUBLE CONCENTRATING -- stomach pain, muscle aches -- Increased empathy towards others. | THIS DRUG SERIOUSLY JACKED UP MY PSYCHIE. Made me feel like a crazy belonging in a nut house, with frequent nervous breakdowns and constant feeling of death looming around the corner. I want to be so accurate in my description as reading these things made ME feel a lot better -- the more accurate the reviews on depression/anxiety - the better I felt and was able to stick on the drug to today (DAY 10). I want to be available via e-mail for anyone taking this drug in the future who may just need someone to reach out to and talk to; as I have been in your shoes!!! | M | 32 | 10 days 500 2X D | 1/9/2013 | 1 | Bacterial vaginal infection | Nausea/ night sweats/anxiety/panic/weird ringing in ears felt like wind was blowing on them/ tired more than usual/ nasty bitter taste in mouth/ dizziness | Worst antibiotic I ever took. The side effects are overwhelming. I thought there was seriously something wrong with me and that I'm going crazy with night and day sweats and panic along with anxiety. i was considering seeing a psychiatrist until I read that other people had similar side effects. Never taking it again. | F | 24 | 7 days 2X D | 1/6/2013 | 5 | Colitis | Leaves a constant taste of bile in my mouth, no appetite, exhausted, early and very heavy mestruation, depression and anxiety. | I am also on warfarin so it is rather frightening being on this medication as it increases my bleeding risk over 50%. Evidently it was the milder choice for my problem though. It has cleared up the non-stop diarrhea but I am wondering if it may be case of the cure being worse than the disease. Tomorrow I go see what it has done to my INR. I have to be on it for two more days. Not happy, makes me scared to leave the house due to the increased bleeding risk, even with no trauma, can just happen spontaneously. | F | 46 | 10 days 500 MG 3X D | 12/30/2012 | 1 | Pouchitis | Made pouchitis worse. Pins and needles with BM's when pouchitis is normally a dull pain for me. Depression, fatigue, nausea, dizzy, loss of appetite, developed a cough. | F | 30 | 3 weeks | 12/23/2012 | 1 | CDIFF | Was on this for CDIFF....worst med I've ever been on in my life...do no take, see if you can get something besides this. I was on it for CDIFF. I have Cystic Fibrosis so stay on antibiotics all the time...tolerate them well both IV and oral. This stuff made me Sooooo depressed, brain fogged, lethargic, and weak. I've never, ever in my life felt as sick as this drug made me. It got rid of the Cdiff but about killed me. I threw up every day while I was on it. | M | 27 | 19 days 500 3X D | 12/21/2012 | 2 | bacterial infection | Extreme nausea, appetite loss, dry mouth, poor circulation, headache. | F | 21 | 7 days 500 MG | 12/15/2012 | 2 | Vaginal bacteria infection | This drug does work to cure the infection but some of the side effects are pretty unpleasant but manangable. The people commenting about how this drug is ruining their life and stuff like that crack me up and they are probably still on it because it does mess with your emotions slightly. For me it makes me pretty drowsy I would compare to the calm sedated feeling of a vicodin high. it also did give me a minor rash that itched but benadryl helped. I wouldnt really want to take it again unless I absouletly had to but the people on here are over reacting. | F | 18 | 7 days 500mg | 12/14/2012 | 2 | Giardia | nausea (like morning sickness), headaches, tiredness, bad taste in mouth / unable to taste anything properly, irritable / anger, balance / coordination affected like with middle ear infection, sore neck, achy body | Can't believe how horrible I feel on this drug. Got giardia from little kids who have also taken this - one multiple times. Had no idea how nasty this is - luckily the baby only had to take it for 3 days each time. Feel terrible that they had to suffer through these side effects. My palate is completely messed up which really sucks as I'm studying culinary arts and am taking exams (practical). | F | 39 | 7 days 500mg 3X D | 12/10/2012 | 1 | Mouth infection | Tired, nervous, anxious, neck pains, nerve damage, sleeplessness, skin eruptions, abdominal rash, tingling in hands and feet, (parathesia) these side effects have lasted 9 months or more. Doc said it wasn't the metronizodole as symptoms not in her book!!! This stuff is poison. Approach with caution!! | M | 64 | 7 days 500 | 12/4/2012 | 1 | BV | Stomach pain one hour after first pill. Dizziness and felt "strange" hours later. After the third dose, headache and extreme nausea began and had to leave work, go home and go to bed. Felt like I had the flu. | I was supposed to take for 7 days, but there's no way. I've never taken an antibiotic with such strong side effects before. I called the doctor on the third day and asked for something else. This is nasty stuff. | F | 51 | 2 days 500 MG 2X D | 11/29/2012 | 1 | suspected h. pylori in stomach | After taking my first dose with clarithromycin,felt nauseous, food made it better. Took the night dose, couple of hours later I had my head over my bin I felt so much like I was going to vomit. Nausea subsided then I went to bed only to wake up after half an hour with a rapid heartbeat. Didn't get another wink of sleep after that. Suffered from nausea, rapid heartbeat, Brown urine, soft stools, aches and pains in abdomen, itchy vagina, crying spells, white coated tongue. Could've been worse. It's clear I can't take this. I'm stopping all medication until I see the doctor on Monday. Side effects have subsided this morning, still can't sleep though. I hope I don't get any repercussions from this. I feel like it has done some sort of damage somewhere. Definitely poisen. Of course it would kill off any bug, I feel like it could kill me! | F | 20 | 7 days 400 2X D | 11/9/2012 | 1 | Food poisoning | HORRIBLE DRUG!!! Had to cut down to 250mg after first dose. Every dose added New symptom, weak, dizzy, extreme emotional distress, crying, scared to death! Swollen lymph nodes in neck. Fullness in stomach, tenderness in stomach, paranoid I went off it after 4 days, 4 days later I still fell bad, a little better but still have tenderness and swollen lymph nodes. This stuff scared the hell out of me. Would not take again | F | 47 | 1 weeks 500mg X 3 | 11/2/2012 | 2 | cdiff | I actually posted on here a couple of weeks ago giving this drug a thumbs up however that's until the 13th day of taking this drug turned into a nightmare. I began breaking out in hives and had severe itching so my dr. took me off the meds. Two weeks later I was still breaking out in hives. These weren't normal rashes and bumps...the more I scratched the more welps and hives appeared. I finally went back to my dr after I notice my palm became red and itchy when I accidentally bumped it on my table. It seemed as if every insult to my skin or body was causing extreme itching and hives. So the verdict is in....I have developed dermatographism. I am now taking prednizone in attempt to hopefully be normal again. My drs and I are all hoping that this will not become chronic and life long. Take extreme caution when using this drug. | F | 28 | 2 weeks 500 2x | 10/30/2012 | 1 | Diverticulosis | Bad taste in my mouth that is still there after almost 2 weeks after completing treatment. Other side effects are: itching and rash on pubic and vulva area, muscular body ache (similar to the flu), lump on my wrist with extreme pain ( cannot apply pressure to thumb), right foot pain near arch and swelling, confusion, mood swings, sleeplesness. | F | 42 | 10 days 500mg | 10/30/2012 | 5 | diverticulitis | Bad taste, dark urine, confusion, frequent bowel movements, lethargy, just felt sick. | I had to take this 20 years ago and when I had another bout of diverticulitis I groaned when I knew I had to take it again. It's nasty, but it works and I knew what to expect. It was easier this time, because I was not as ill and I had a trip planned which helped to take my mind off how bad I felt. | F | 71 | 14 days 500 mg 3X D | 10/25/2012 | 1 | bv | Anxiety, depression, mood swings, dizzyness, very upset tummy, horid taste, fuzzyness in mouth | HORID! After having a hyst. I got bv. Normal ok but the way this made me feel well lets say i wanted to check myself into the nut ward! I even went to the dr to get meds today! | F | 29 | 5 days 500 3X D | 10/25/2012 | 1 | abscess form an implant in mouth | Stomach cramps after first day. Weakness . Intense anger and depression . Then a week and a half later started the shakes. Tremors in head and feel shaky all over. Gut problems. Bloated stomach. Think i have candida now. | I took this medication in July and it is now October. I still feel shaky , have head tremors and feel a lot of anxiety. Would totally not recommend flagyl. I am a mess right now from it and it is affecting my social life. | F | 39 | 5 days 2X D | 10/21/2012 | 1 | Infection following dental surgery | Nausea headaches paranoia anxiety dizziness foggy feeling | F | 35 | 7 days 4X daily | 10/18/2012 | 1 | C Diff | Headache, nausea, neck stiffness, body aches, general feeling of unwell. VERY tired, could sleep for 20 hours a day. | I was supposed to be on FLAGYL for 12 days for C Diff. By four days in it had made me so sick the Doctor took me off of it. So far the C Diff has not come back. If it does he says we will try vancomycin or a lower dose of FLAGYL. Although it helped my C Diff - which was caused by a different antibiotic, it was the worst thing I was ever on. With each pill I just became sicker and sicker. If you are having any of these problems I would speak with your dr and see if you can get a lower dose or something else! | F | 27 | 12 days 500 MG 3X D | 10/15/2012 | 1 | BV | NAUSEA NAUSEA NAUSEA. and the doctor should really warn you that if you take Flagyl NOT TO DRINK even a sip of alcohol; it reacts like Antabuse and you'll wish you were dead. | F | 60 | 1 days 500 mg 2X D | 10/11/2012 | 2 | Blastocystis Hominis (parasite) | Irritable, tired, angry, homesick, shitty... Diarrhea, nausea, fullness, can't eat (no appetite), sore lower back, sore neck.. Sleepy in the days sweats at night... I am a amateur but highly-competitive athlete, it is busting me not to be able to train so well at the moment!! | I am hoping it is cleaning me out from parasites - but it doesn't feel like it!! | M | 41 | 10 days 500 4X D | 10/9/2012 | 5 | Diverticulitis | Severe headache, furry tongue, metallic taste, brown tinged urine, tender bum. | M | 42 | 3 days 500 3X D | 10/8/2012 | 2 | BV | Anxiety, nausea, altered appetite, feverish, depression (at the end of 7 days), very impatient and irritable; be seems to be gone, but not sure it was worth the horrible side effects | F | 33 | 7 days 2X D | 10/8/2012 | 1 | bacterial infection | I hate this drug, it has made me feel very anxious, my heart is beating so fast, but I feel tired too. It has also made my memory very bad and I have an exam to study for. No offense to the blondes out there but since I started taking it I have been having a lot of blonde moments. Don't take this drug its horrible. | F | 23 | 7 days 500mg | 10/4/2012 | 1 | bacterial diarrhea | This crap has destroyed the last 6 days of my life and counting. I'm a very mentally stable person, well this gave me the most horrible panic attacks and anxiety compared feeling like dying! So every time anxiety kicked in it made my gut so stressed that my effects worsen, I thought I was going to die went crazy and paranoid, please avoid this crap. Apart from mental issues like it was not enough, terrible abdominal pain blotted all the time...loss of appetite and nausea...tiredness unbalance unable to concentrate, weakness, metal taste and dry mouth, loss of sex drive totally...gassy, gut noises,...loose stools yellowish looking. I should stop now | My dr in Singapore prescribed this crap before even knowing if I had bacteria or not "to save time" turned out stool culture came negative once I was done with the 5 days. During the 5 days no significant effects at all. After 3 days of taking it the nightmare started being all alone in Asia and I'm from Mexico imagine! So today is 1 week I'm off this poison and though the original issue of explosive diarrhea is cured, this is 100 times worse. Today seemed like a good day with reduction of anxiety and my energy got to the point that I played tennis for 2 hours, then again my tummy blotted after the game and I have now severe abdominal pain. Went to dr this morning and she was saying I should be off the symptoms by now because her "book" said it and her book did not include anxiety as a side effect...she related the anxiety to other shit. I will email her this link so she can learn more about this HORRIBLE POISON THAT HAS RUINED me for now. Please feel free to email if you want me to share what I did to feel better but if you have some words of empathy for me and tell me it's gonna be over soon, please feel free :) | M | 41 | 5 days 500 3X D | 10/2/2012 | 2 | Giardia | Backache; frequent urination; fatigue; general feeling of heaviness; itching; metallic taste; thirst; slight tingling in hands & feet. | F | 48 | 7 days 250 MG | 9/29/2012 | 4 | c. diff | Minor constant headaches, furry tongue, metalic taste, nausea, dizziness, joint pain, muscle stiffness and stiff neck. | This has been by far the worst I have felt in my life. Started out with antibiotic related c. diff. Doctor started me on flagyl. Within the first 3 days I started experiencing nausea in the evenings with constant headaches not relived by ibuprofen. Within the 7th day, my wrist became swollen and stiff, along soreness. by the end of the seventh day, the stiffness and soreness moved to by right arm. Extreme join pain and now my whole upper body feels sore and stiff. Tomorrow is my last day, I'll tough it out until then, but I will never take this again! | F | 25 | 10 days 500 3X D | 9/22/2012 | 4 | BV | Fatigue, very heavy and long period. Nausea. | I'm sick as a dog. Anyone els had a lot of vaginal bleeding for a long time or longer than usual period?

I felt like I was having a nervous breakdown | F | 33 | 7 days 500 mg | 9/21/2012 | 1 | C Diff | Anxiety, Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Loose Stool, Diarrhea, Joint Pain, Muscle Pain | I have never felt so awful on a medication in my life! I stuck it out for the entire 14 days and hope it killed the c diff infection. I have been off this horrible medicine four days and still have no appetite, have bouts of loose stools and diarrhea, and worse of all are the anxiety and panic attacks. I had no anxiety before starting this med. I hope it ends soon and I didn't do permanent damage! The only good thing so far is that the joint and muscle pain have gone away. | F | 42 | 14 days 500 mg 3X D | 9/20/2012 | 1 | PID | After 1 dose I experienced severe nausea & anxiety for a week straight. | I was supposed to be on this medication for 2 weeks, but after one 1 days worth I was so sick I couldn't even look at food. I have been having severe panic attacks everyday since & I am worse off now than I was before I started taking this. I would NEVER EVER EVER consider taking this again!! | F | 23 | 1 days 2X D | 9/19/2012 | 5 | bv | Arms and legs feel weak, anxiety, almost paranoid, dark urine,just very nervous, shaky..but it has helped my bv. | F | 40 | 4 days 500mg | 9/10/2012 | 4 | BV | On about Day 3 began to feel uncomfortable in lower right abdomen, like too full, but also a little sharp. Sensations persisted Days 4-6. I worried I was getting a hernia or appendicitis. I also have felt very tired, for a couple of days was very sleepy and withdrawn. I have one more day, so if bv is gone it will have been worth it, but I will probably not take it again if I can avoid it. Note: I had also changed my diet drastically and began using Estrogen cream at same time, so it's hard to say definitively it was the metronidazole, or only that. | F | 51 | 7 days 500 MG 2X D | 9/10/2012 | 3 | bv | I feel awful anxiety rapid heart beat, very tired l feel foggy headed bloated, but I can see improvement already the odor from bv I've been dealing with bv off and on for a year im gonna stick it out really want to get rid of this embarrassing problem. | F | 34 | 2 days 500 mg | 9/8/2012 | 3 | stomach ulcer | nausea, headaches, anxiety, deppression, feeling very sick, dark urine after taking the pill. | Stay away from it | M | 32 | 11 days 500 3X D | 9/6/2012 | 1 | Parasite | Depression, loss of sex drive, anxiety, dermatitis, flushing, urine incontenency, problems sleeping, throatproblems, low energy, memory problems. | I've taken the medicine in the end of february 2012 and the problems aren't really improving. I've been taking probiotics ever since, have a really healthy dieet(had before too) and workout. Since a few days i've started working in the garden of my mother since i've read the soil bacteria may help with the depression. It makes me feel more relaxed, but i havent noticed a improvement yet. PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY TIPS, ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OR HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS AFTER TAKING THE MEDICINE, EMAIL ME. | M | 25 | 7 days 500 3X D | 9/6/2012 |
