| 1 | had colonosopy | Very bad. First of all I told doctor I could not take they gave to me anyway saying it was a mild sedative. I vomited for 3 days I go tremors I couldn't see straight because I was light headed and dizzy that lasted longer than 3 days. I was put in the E R . HOW COULD a 45 min procedure turn in to dDas in the EMERGENCY ROOM? Doc need to listen to patients | Filing complaint. | 65 | 1 days unk | 2/28/2016 | 5 | back siatic nerve injections | Sleepiness, short term memory loss, only lasted a couple of hours | Worked great | F | 60 | 1 days 60 mg | 2/29/2016 | 1 | cardiac cath | memory loss bronchitis crying jags am very sensitive to meds tried to tell them that | never again also never fentyl | F | 75 | 1X H | 3/7/2016 | 1 | colonoscopy | Memory loss | This was absolutely horrible. Had i known i would feel like i do today i would have never got it. This drug should be banned | F | 40 | 1 days | 3/8/2016 | 1 | Hip Replacement Surgery | I was given Versed before, during and after my hip replacement surgery. I remember nothing including the surgeon seeing me after surgery to discuss complications and what I could and couldn't do. The surgeon visited me the next day and told me again and yet I couldn't remember. It took 6 days before I could comprehend and remember the complications and not continue to hurt myself. | It's now been 17 weeks today since my surgery. I don't know if it's a result of the Versed, the sick feeling of being unable to remember and what may have happened or what but I am severely depressed. I have no reason to be depressed, I caused no damage by not remembering what I was not to do because of the complications. I am healed and in great shape. No more hip pain, but I am soooo depressed that I am now seeking professional help. I've never been like this before. I am not suicidal at this point but I don't want to live. | M | 63 | 1 times unknown 1X day | 3/16/2016 | 5 | Surgery | None | They gave me versed right before my surgery. It made me very calm, when I had previously been nervous. I remember chatting with the nurse for a bit and then waking up after the procedure. Waking up went great - I was alert very quickly and didn't feel all that groggy. | F | 33 | 1 days | 3/19/2016 | 5 | lumbar nerve block yesterday | some confusion for a day, also fentanyl together was fine in 2 days. | Have been given before with no problems. | F | 63 | 1 days 2mg | 3/19/2016 | 5 | lumbar nerve block yesterday | some confusion for a day, also fentanyl together was fine in 2 days. | Have been given before with no problems. | F | 63 | 1 days 2mg | 3/19/2016 | 5 | Calm down before colonoscopy | Made me super happy and I was grinning like an idiot, but I did get really grumpy when it was wearing off | If you're prone to addiction I wouldn't take it. | F | 15 | 1 days 1X day | 3/22/2016 | 1 | Sedation for surgery | Had versed 5 times for surgery . Can't remember how I heard about versed but looked it up. The last surgery I said no to versed. I can tell before the first surgery I could do numbers in my head, Remember what I said yesterday, Figure volumes and amount of product I needed in my head. I was a builder. Now can't remember crap, short term memory. Versed is the only drug that could have caused my memory problems. Its coming back slowly, It was 2 years since I have been versed. I'm telling you, SAY NO to VERSED> | SAY NO TO VERSED, and ask when they say this will just calm you down what is is and ask how does it work. See if the give you yhe rundown onwhat this drg actually does to you. | M | 61 | 1 days 1X day | 3/22/2016 | 1 | I injected for oral surgery | Extremely sleepy nausea dizziness unable to walk around for 4 full days | Will refuse in future | F | 55 | 1 days | 3/27/2016 | 1 | For a biopsy of my liver | I woke up twice during the procedure, screaming with pain. I kept telling them to give me more Fentanyl. Post-biopsy I had very elevated systolic blood pressure & increased heart rate. I also had difficulty breathing & could not get a deep breath. The night of the procedure I awoke with pain every time I took a breath, & felt I was not getting any full breath's. The next morning I started experiencing severe muscle cramping in my feet & calves. They were very prolonged & I had to stretch out of every one. I also felt very dizzy & lightheaded for a couple of days. The drug also caused extreme nausea & I am sure would have ended in vomiting had I not been taking Zofran. I had also experienced waking up in excruciating pain during a previous colonoscopy. I believe that because of the amnesiac effects, the nurse both times gave far lower doses the f pain medication than was necessary for the procedure. After looking up all the side effects of this drug, & having experienced nearly all of them, Zi will refuse to ever have this drug used on me again. It was a horrible experience both times, & remembering the pain from the previous procedure 10 years earlier, I should have refused the drug this time. | I will never allow Versed to be used again on myself, nor anyone I know. The ironic thing is I am a critical care nurse & had used this drug many times for conscious sedation. In the future, I will not participate in any procedures using Versed. | F | 58 | 1 days ? | 3/27/2016 | 5 | before surgery to relax | No side effects other than inteded. Was given an injection to relax before general anesthesia. I asked the doctor if it should be working already, she said yes and the next thing I remember I was waking up in recovery. No lasting effects. | It worked wonderful for me! | F | 33 | 1 times | 4/11/2016 | 1 | Oral surgery | I immediately turned beet red Felt Anxious. I am on a Fentanyl patch long term Now I realize that is why I had a horrible reaction. | F | 69 | 1 days 15 mg | 5/5/2016 | 4 | Colonoscopy | Versed was paired with Propofol (sp) for procedure. Worked great. Felt great after the procedure and took some good naps. However, the day after I am feeling quite lightheaded. Not sure if this is normal or not, but I wouldn't be driving any distance today. | F | 64 | 1 days 1X day | 5/7/2016 | 1 | trabeculectomy | remember surgical team being rude, yelling at me, ignoring my pain, TERRIFYING experience not being able to get away from them. I was more paralyzed than sedated. | iv during procedure | F | 72 | 10 mg 1X day | 5/28/2016 | 5 | Facial surgery | Wonderful experience. Felt as though I had a refreshing nap. Did not feel any pain during surgery. Woke up in recovery with no nausea or side effects. | F | 52 | 1 days IV | 6/9/2016 | 5 | Surgery | Totally took away my anxiety prior to surgery | Worked great, then gives profanely and fentynol | M | 61 | 1 times 2mg 1X day | 6/18/2016 | 5 | Athrocentesis of TMJ | Lingering drowsiness and some mild and harmless heart palpitations persisted 6 hours after IV Versed. No hallucinations or horror as others mentioned. | Worked fine for me, I was nervous due to reviews but no major issues. In definitely in a fog now 6-7 hrs post op but it's nothing horrible at all. Initial dose just made me sleepy and sort of relaxed.. No worries on this drug! | M | 33 | 1 days IV per doc | 6/23/2016 | 1 | celiac plexus block | Went in to get a celiac plexus block. Was given three doses of versed. Kept telling the docs that I was fully awake, aware, and very anxious because what they were doing hurt considerably. I have been put under for multiple procedures, and know the point when you are starting to go "out." This never occurred. They just kept repeating that I was fine and I would "forget everything." To which I kept reiterating that I would not and the versed wasn't working. They might as well have given me water in my IV. I ended up jumping off of the table in pain, and had to leave. My main doctor's office that referred me to have the procedure kept telling me that there's no way I would remember anything. Wish that was the case. Would not recommend. | F | 29 | 1 days | 8/8/2016 |
