terrible itchy rash all over cant get rid of it

After having 6 drugs fail me, this was my miracle drug (until my body adjusted a few months ago). First medication that was effective at removing all my symptoms. I felt normal again.

Abnormal sense of smell; persistent unpleasant odor. Loss of libido (entirely!), weight gain, fatigue, depression. Symptoms have progressively gotten worse after being on Cozaar for 4 months.

Slight nausea if I don't eat when I take it, mild spotting, other than that no real side effects.

OMG. My 10 year old son has had a complete personality change after 4 weeks on Zyrtec. I just googled "Zyrtec irritabiity" and found this site. Thank you. I ordered child behavior books this afternoon because his anger is through the roof. He will never take another one!

Strong urine smell. Gas. Heartburn.

I have been on Cymbalta for almost a week and have been in bed the entire time. It has caused me to be severely fatigued with flu-like symptoms that came on about 24 hours after beginning this drug. The depression was not as bad as I feel on this medication. I am supposed to go to 60mg in two days but after reading the reports of the great difficulty in getting off Cymbalta - I am going to stop taking it before it gets even worse.

The hair loss is horrid and unfortunately it began within 2 months of starting Topamax. However I blamed the thinning and change in hair texture on my new stylist and the color she used (what a coincidence that I'd changed stylists when I started this drug). But when I noticed that my hair felt just like it did when it I started losing it when I had undergone chemotherapy, I realized it had to be the topamax. If I'd known that hair loss was a potential side effect, I would not be in the situation that I am now. I'm hoping the hair loss stops now that I've discontinued the drug. The memory loss and language problems were so bad that I didn't speak in front of a group without first "rehearsing" in my mind what I was going to say. I also realize now that I was depressed and even felt suicidal at times. This drug is dangerous and every patient should be counseled and cautioned before they are prescribed it. My advice would be USE IT ONLY AS A LAST RESORT!!

I took this drug for about three days and hated the anxiety that it caused. It made me very nervous and I was way anxious! What an awful feeling to have! As soon as I stopped taking it - the anxiety and nervousness - completely gone.

extreme moodiness, weight gain in hips and thighs, headaches, confusion, yeast infections.
