Side Effects for Corlanor (ivabradine hydrochloride)
This medication has been a game changer for me and helping with keeping my heart rate at a stable lower rate.
CORLANOR (IVABRADINE HYDROCHLORIDE): This medication is used by people with a certain heart problem (chronic heart failure), to help prevent it from getting worse and needing treatment in a hospital. Heart failure is a condition where your heart does not pump blood as well as it should. Ivabradine works by making your heart beat more slowly. It should not be used if you have a slow resting heartbeat (less than 60 beats per minute) before starting ivabradine, low blood pressure, or if your heart failure symptoms have recently gotten worse.

I immediately began having sharp stomach cramps and noticed an "odd" type of headache which I've never experienced before. Started feeling down and anxious with feelings of despair. And very oddly, my eyelids felt like they weighed a ton and my eyes felt almost " swollen " or glazed over!? Not to mention, I've become uncharacteristicly irritable.Very odd feelings for a drug to give a person.I'm trying to stick with it, but I don't know if I can do this for another week:(
Do not take. Danger of death.Sue the doctor he prescribes this neurotoxin for a reason other than CHARACTERIZED schizophrenia.
I have used this medication before and it was successful. This is my third outbreak in as many years. However, my reaction this round was quite severe. I am experiencing blistering and what looks to me like Herpes. I have never had symptoms like this before, so I went to get tested just to be sure.After reading some of these testimonials, I feel a bit better, but if this is a common side-effect of the medication, it needs to be made more public - even my doctor had never heard of it.
I had terrible nausea the first week I started Emsam but it finally went away. I started experiencing insomnia about the second week but it comes and goes. About the 3rd week I had abdominal pain and started having blood in my urine.
some jitters, inability to concentrate, mildy worsens pre-existing vertigo, heightened alertness, occasionally nausea.
I didn't associate the pain with fosamax until I read this site.My mother took it for years and had many of the same problems.I have not had a new bone density test.
I experienced facial break-outs when I first started taking this medicine, so I stopped taking it for about a month. I was disappointed that I had to quit taking it because it really helped my bi polar condition, so p-doc recommended I give it another try and started me out on a very lose dose (5 mg) and worked my way up to 100 mg slowly. This worked and I haven't had any break-outs. I had some weight gain (about 7 lbs.) in the beginning and an increase in appetite. I put myself on an exercise and healthy eating program and lost the extra weight, even though it was quite a struggle. It seems as though my hair is coarser than it was before taking this med and I noticed slight hair loss.
flushing, itching,burning up, and increased glucose since i am a diabetic to begin with.

I have been taking Rozerem for almost 4 months (yes, it is safe to use long-term). I think my success for using this drug is because I am a drug rep for the company and understand how Rozerem works. There is a "right way" and a "wrong way" to take it. I knew not to expect a feeling of sedation (like other sleep aids) and I also practice good "sleep hygiene", because treating insomnia has to be a lifestyle change. This is how to take it... I take my Rozerem about 9:30pm (30 min before I need to go to bed), take a warm shower, turn off the tv/computer/lights, and do anything else to prepare for bed. Then it's lights out! If you expect to be sedated, then you will certainly be disappointed. If you are searching for a way to sleep more normally (and not mask the problem), it will require a little patience and effort, but it's well worth the outcome! I'm so much happier not suffering from insomnia anymore. After about 2 weeks on the med, I started sleeping 8 ho
