 3  vaginal infection nausea, dizziness, irritability, depression, loose stool, tingling, headache, aggressive behavior, dry mouth It worked well in fixing the problem, but the side-effects are terrible. I had no idea what was wrong w/ me until I read others' comments. I've been sick the whole week I've been taking it and am relieved (now) to know that my ailments will go away once it leaves my system. F 28 7 days

 3  1) gum infection 2) wisdom tooth irritability, aggressive feelings, almost depressed. Amazingly sharp onset within 30 mins of taking them but seems to go after about 3 hrs. 3 x 200mg per day on two occasions. I suppose it did work the first time against a painful infection but 2nd time was just-in-case after tooth extraction M 43 7 days

 2  Lichen Planus (severe case) Somewhat metallic taste, although more like concrete but isn't as bad if dosage is altered (1 one day, 2 next, 1 next, and so on)seems to be better now. Dizziness - to the point I fainted once. Loss of appetite - tough to force food in order to take drug. Very itchy, but so is the condition so not sure if its worsened by the drug. Slight numbness in fingers. Am seeing doctor tomorrow. On it so far for two weeks and have a 31 day supply. So far have not noticed any improvement with the Lichen Planus. Do not take with alcohol, coffee or spicy food while taking and for a few days following - can severely upset the stomach. F 43 14 days
