dry mouth, drowsy, insomnia, weight gain

Within a week I could see the improvement starting...It has been 5 weeks now and I really can see the difference.. I have had this for 15 years and has slowly gotten worse..My 4 year old telling eveyone I have yellow and black toes was the reason I finally started the treatment....LFT and CBC fine after 30 days so I am continuing....BTW you can get the generic lamasil at wal-mart for $4.00 for 30 days...so $12.00 for the 3 month treatment..afar cry from the $1000.00 it was originally for the 90 day supply...When you get it just tell them you have no insurance

NONE, But Ica not stand to stay in the sun on hot days very long.

Discontinue giving this drug to patients!

Since starting the Lexapro diet about 1.5 yrs ago, my mood is better and I am much more relaxed. Before I was very short tempered and could not sit still for 10 min. at a time. My family is very happy I am taking this prescription.

Had high hopes on it, but It didn't work for entamoeba histolytica infection..no effect of using it..

I really loved the patch it was nice to not have to worry about taking a pill everyday. I have always been thin since being on the patch I had dramatic weight gain, which is now under control with a strict diet and exercise, however recently I've been experiencing severe joint pain. I've never experienced this before and I'm afraid that the patch may have something to do with it. I'm going to be switching immediately.

I felt fine on one mg and 2 mg was ok, 3mg gave me the bad side effects and then when it got raised to 4 mg i tried to kill my self... I wouldnt recomend it to anyone...

With dosage up at 150mg fairly zonked.I initially felt horrible,dry mouth, urinary issues and weight gain.It took a few months to really make a difference but once it did quality of life improved. Back to 100mg and dry mouth the only remaining symptom.

I have a caffeine habit and learned that 1 large coffee and 1 diet coke plus wellbutrin = intensified side effects. Never felt worse as the two days I drank a lot of coffee and took this med.
