I have been afraid to take it especially after reading the reviews and side effects. I can't be knocked down from this. Went through enough with my body adjusting to Levothyroxine for my hypothyroidism. I don't understand why I can't just take store bought Aleve which works just fine for my pain. Would rather suffer the pain than the debilitating side effects I have read about. Patients should be monitered with their doctor in the room immediately after taking this medication if it causes such horrible side effects. Not taking it now!! NO WAY!!!!! | Haven't even started this medication, and will not trust it!! | F | 48 | 1 days 500 mg 2x | 9/6/2015 |
