Miltown (meprobamate) Side Effects, Uses Dosages
Side Effects for Miltown (meprobamate)
I have tried several medications for my severe insomnia and all have had severe side effects. Miltown is very old and not often prescribed any longer which is sad as patients do not have to suffer to get the required results. It has helped to restore my sleep tremendously which has helped my quality of life.
No side effects. I use it to help me sleep. Felt wide awake in the morning with no side effects. Works beautifully as a sleep aid. Can be addictive, so I am careful to take it only when I need help sleeping (about twice a week).
This medication is rarely prescribed any longer; I don't know why because there are so few, if any, unwanted side effects, especially at night, which is the only time I take it. It can be addictive if abused; maybe that's why it isn't prescribed as much. It has been a real help for me in sleeping.

Made me hyper and very, very sad. I felt like I was having a breakdown. I would cry for an hour straight for the smallest reasons. It didn't help with my pain at all.
some occasional break through bleeding
Today my husband witnessed me turn pale and I almost fainted. My heart was racing, and I was extremely incoherent. He rushed me to the urgent care, EKG test normal. Blood Sugar normal, was told that my primary doc might want to "up the dosage". I just want to stop taking this med, and do things the natural way with exercise and better eating. I'm way too young to be on this med. I have never been diagnosed with any other condition, nor do I take any other medication. I was convinced that since HBP runs in my immediate family (mother, siblings) that I had no other choice to "regulate" it.
my 4 years old had awful tantrums like never had even when was in terrible twos, nightmares, aggressiveness etc.
Anxiety heart palpitations thinking bad thoughts, horrible feeling, chest pains.Bad me very jumpy got the jitters.l don't know how long it will take for this feeling of anxiety to go away I'm very worried.
First antidepressant I've taken that did not cause horrendous side effects.
The pros definately outweigh the cons. I was a newlywed when I was diagnosed and I had horrible pain with intercourse before I began my injections. A month after I started Lupron I had no pain. The day or so after I get my injection I feel kind of cruddy and get a pretty bad headache. I also have hot flashes everyday and mood swings. All of these side effects are definately worth it. I feel so much better!
Ambien works great. I got bold and stayed up past 20 mins one night. I guess I got on the computer and send my boss an email. I checked my send mail and saw it. The letters were out of place and a lot of extra words not in order. I think my mind was already out cold. I had to explain in morning. The good news was all my clothes were laid out and I can watch the same movie over and over again. The wife not big on the way I get when I take one. Works great!
Not usually a miserable person and definitely not emotional. I was wondering why I've been feeling this way for a while. I would snap quickIy when someone would say something. Feel extremely logy in the day time and extremely emotional at night. I would wake up the 3 am in the morning for no apparent reason. Behind the eye headaches and ice pick migraine like headaches. Thought i needed glasses. Never had eye problems. I was booking appointments with all kinds of doctors too get each symptom checked out. Feeling like I'm braking down.Just realized I'm on aviane. Seems like I have no hope with birth control.The only good thing it did was too clear up my acne. I really wanted that too but unfortunately I can't risk my hormones and emotions.
I had an episode of "sleep-driving" the next morning after taking my regular dose of Ambien the night before. I drove and did things that I have no memory of and did drive irratically and could of harmed someone else or myself. I wound up in the hospital for 2 days while a full neurological work-up was performed and all tests thankfully came out negative. I will never take Ambien or any other sleep aid for fear of the same thing happening again.
