Zerit (stavudine) Side Effects, Uses Dosages

Side Effects for Zerit (stavudine)

Fat loss from my face, arms, legs and butt, The facial fat loss has not returned even 10 after changing d4T (stavudine, Zerit) to abacavir.

This drug will help keep you alive if you have no other choices for your combination, but much better to use tenofovir or abacavir, neither of which cause fat loss.

Mostly i had muscle wasting, and severe neuropathy which has not stopped since i have bene off it for 6 months. i now have no ass and my face is very gaunt, veins stick out all over my body

All hiv meds are poison, plain and simple

ZERIT (STAVUDINE): This drug is used with other HIV medications to help control HIV infection. It helps to decrease the amount of HIV in your body so your immune system can work better. This lowers your chance of getting HIV complications (such as new infections, cancer) and improves your quality of life. Stavudine belongs to a class of drugs known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI). Stavudine is not a cure for HIV infection. To decrease your risk of spreading HIV disease to others, do all of the following: (1) continue to take all HIV medications exactly as prescribed by your doctor, (2) always use an effective barrier method (latex or polyurethane condoms/dental dams) during all sexual activity, and (3) do not share personal items (such as needles/syringes, toothbrushes, and razors) that may have contacted blood or other body fluids. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details. (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

1st week with some hallucinations. But I still occasionally seeing things out of the corner of my eye. Constant dry mouth. Awful. Put up with problems because it did work on trmors at first,but hand tremors are starting up again.

Mild euphoria but not worth it. This is a terribly addictive drug. Even when I got the amount down to 100 mg. daily (2 pills), I couldn't seem to live without it. It dominated my life.

This is my second round of Clomid. I was at a 5 before taking clomid, the first month after clomid I was at 18. However, I did not get pregnant. I was in severe pain the week after taking the clomid. My husband and I had sex a few days before my est ovualation date and I had a little bleeding...then I had pain that ran from my abdomen all the way down both legs. I was in too much pain to even try to conceive. Dr said that a cyst may have formed and then burst causing this pain. I have just started my second dose, so maybe this one will be better. Only going to try when ovulating.

Bad cholesterol went from the 120's to 58 in 3 months

Ambien triggered hypomania and a psychotic episode.

did not help with my RA at all i feel like it just made ot worse

Feels like my tongue is partially paralyzéd, clenching/grinding téeth, biting tongue in Sleep. Slurred speech. Extreme fatigue.

I was on Lithium 750mg for over 2 years, from when I was first diagnosed, but my blood tests showed that my thyroid went haywire (hypo) and my kidney(s?) started struggling, so we switched me to Depakote. I was nervous because I FEAR change, but I honestly feel better! I feel like there was a fog (maybe from the Lithium) has cleared and I am happier. I went through a few different antidepressants the last 2 years because I think the Lithium had me a little smothered. When I first switched, I went through a couple of weeks where I was EXTREMELY agitated and irritable...over-sensitive and over-reacting. I think that was the withdrawal from the Lithium. I feel better now, although I will admit to some excited anxiety...another scary way to say mania. My biggest fear of all of the side effects was weight gain, but I hope to be able to control it. Most of the other side effects were the same as Lithium, so I have already been dealing with swollen hands and feet, hair loss, and tremors for over 2 years. My hair fell OUT with Lithium. I lost half my density...but I got a shorter style and did a Keratin strength treatment and my hair has not felt better in 10 years. The Depakote is better than Lithium for me, so far. Should have tried it sooner, but the weight gain scared me away.

In the beginning not any to comment about. I have been taking 300mg per day for 12 months. Cannot recall when they hit but it is like I am at the movies when I am asleep, I dream true to life. No sex drive. My coordination is out, as in I come home from work with bruises anywhere. I wake up feeling tired, I put that down to being at the movies all night (dreaming). I also yawn heaps.
