MICRO-K (POTASSIUM CHLORIDE): This medication is a mineral supplement used to treat or prevent low amounts of potassium in the blood. A normal level of potassium in the blood is important. Potassium helps your cells, kidneys, heart, muscles, and nerves work properly. Most people get enough potassium by eating a well-balanced diet. Some conditions that can lower your body's potassium level include severe prolonged diarrhea and vomiting, hormone problems such as hyperaldosteronism, or treatment with "water pills"/diuretics.

MAJOR ANXIETY!!! Worst ever ....I didn't think was due to this until my husband said "you should check side effects", sure enough after checking and reading many reviews, I see why now why it's been unbearable since starting it ! Yes it Helped with my allergies and sinus but NOT WORTH THIS !!!
Not sure what happened here. I've had 500 MG of Azithromycin before, I think 1000 MG was probably too much. Took it on a Tuesday and Wenesday I had stomach cramps, Thursday vomiting, Friday the pain was too much and I had to leave work early. Felt better over the weekend but it's been a week now and still feel some light discomfort.

The occasional "dark" feelings were more severe than with Paxil or Effexor--felt utterly hopeless, but would pass within a few hours. This was almost offset by fine periods of contentment and optimism. Hair-trigger sensitivity/ejaculation. Libidinous thoughts, however, increased. A curious situation: My interest in my wife's body rose above its usual high pitch, but since my "reaction time" was so fast, I wouldn't even bother with my needs, just focused exclusively on hers. She didn't mind at all, though it was still the usual scenario of man pestering woman for sex....
Some constipation which I fully expeccted. It is a known side effect of Narcotics (I'm an RN). Just take a stool softener daily and it will take care of it. And easy fix! I ONLY take it as prescribed and recommend you do it as well. Even though i am an RN, I will NEVER go up without consulting my DR as that makes it an easy line to cross in the future. Make your rules and make yourself stick to them!
I took this medication at night and it helped. It is a good idea for people who have bad reactions to take this medication before going to bed. The only side effect i got was loose stools as soon as I eat. More like a stomach upset. It started the last day Of the 5th day. It has been about 12 days since the last dose but the stomach upset after each meal continues. In a way I am ok with that because it helps eliminate the waste from my body. I did not experience stomach pain. Although I did get head aches the last two days but they stopped.
I was on depo Provera for 2 years straight. Then I finally got off due to things I was hearing. I got on and off. Now I went from being 96lbs to 146lbs. I know I needed to gain weight but now its horrible. I can diet and diet and not loose weight. Shortly after I finally ended for good I got Pregnant. It ended in a very miserable miscarriage. Now i cant get my period back and i pray for it. I want kids some day so This drug was a horrible idea.
was on lexapro for 2 yrs and gained 30 lbs. someone told me the cymbalta doesnt cause weight gain. so far after three weeks, i have LOST 3 pounds.........i switched right over from the lexapro. feel great. no real bad side effects. makes me feel like i have more energy.
I started having Crazy dreams and would wake up anxious and sweaty with my heart pounding. I felt irritable and depressed and confrontational. I only used it 4 or 5 times about every other day. It worked great the first couple of times and not as great the last couple of times. Horrifying dreams and racing heart not worth it!
