DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE (DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE): This medication is used to treat various conditions such as severe allergic reactions, arthritis, blood diseases, breathing problems, certain cancers, eye diseases, intestinal disorders, and skin diseases. It is also used to test for an adrenal gland disorder (Cushing's syndrome). It decreases your body's natural defensive response and reduces symptoms such as swelling and allergic-type reactions. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid hormone (glucocorticoid). This injectable form of dexamethasone is used when a similar drug cannot be taken by mouth or when a very fast response is needed, especially in patients with severe medical conditions. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of dexamethasone, especially if it is to be injected near your spine (epidural). Rare but serious side effects may occur with epidural use. This drug may also be used with other medications as a replacement for certain hormones. (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

Large round indents due to skin atrophy on the sides of my hips, (bursa). The shots helped relieve my pain significantly, but now I look deformed which was not worth it. Had I known previously (as no one warned me) I would have seeked other options such as physical theraphy. (I only had one shot on each side once). Now I am looking into fat transfer to fill the area, but it is not affordable.
Um side effects, let's see. I have groceries in my fridge, a boy friend, and a job. Not bad if you ask me. I have had anxiety for all of my adult life I just didn't know what it was. My attacks were so bad I thought killing myself was the only way for relief. I got to where I just didn't step out of my comfort zone for fear of an attack. My doc put me on a number of meds befor I found the winning combo. Prozack and Klonopin. I cant always predict when I will have a P/A but I know if I do have one there is relief. I have a normal life now. I can go Places by myself, drive over bridges, and take a jog without feeling like I'm going to get kidnapped and torcherd to death. All in all I would say these are good things. Now for the withdrawal, I don't plan on having to deal with that
Was prescribed 10 mg/day and told to take 1/2 dose at first. First night felt slight pain in chest, then feet. Became progressively worse over the following day as all joints began to hurt and I felt weak (some muscle twitching, too.) As an otherwise completely healthy 30 year old, I cannot justify taking this to improve my mental state when it basically makes me want to stay in bed all day b/c of physical effects.

BONIVA is a very dangerous drug. I should have been tipped off as to just how powerful it is when I had to sign a release form at the pharmacy before taking possession. I will never take it again.

My OBGYN prescribed Mononessa but my pharmacist gave me sprintec. This has been the worst experience I have ever had on birth control. It started with severe anxiety that comes for no reason at all. It feels like a weight is on your chest and you can't breath. when I get like this I can't eat or sleep. The thought of eating food makes me nauseous. This is a horrible drug! It's made me question the happiest year of my life. Do not take it or you will be picking up the pieces left in its wake.
