454316 tn?1206879897 yes I did take treatment for HCV. Many doctors do not want to treat because of the side effects of the different types of drugs required for both an autoimmune disease & HCV. Mind did, I have won out thus far as far as the HCV goes, still good on that after being off treatment for a year & half & all is going well for me. I cannot say though about your drugs for bi-polar although throughout my treatment for HCV I had to be placed on heavy doses of depression medication.
Avatar f tn Like all drugs - some people can take them, and some can not take them ! Norvasc is a combo drug - iv tryed it twice and hated it both times ! had adverse side effects from it.. and got very sick from it ! Seems you got the normal b/s story from your Doctor , the side effects will stop or fade keep taking it .. ( he hopes) the side effect wont ever stop ! or fade - if you have them I would go back to the Doctor and tell him - its not working -I dont like it !

1679320 tn?1306382914 Loxamine is another brand name for Paroxetine... mostly known as Paxil in the States and Seroxat in the UK. It is a SSRI....

Plus i have to toally agree with Mammo, the doctor who prescribed it shouldnt of given you the worst out come to taking these and it does shound like he/she was trying to put you off and scare you. Take Mammo's advice and seek out another doctor who will be more sensitive to your needs.
1773104 tn?1314155711 We all react differently to these types of medications, and what one experiences may not be another's. I've been on Zoloft and now a generic for Celexa with great results. There is about a 2 week period in the beginning where things seem to get worse instead of better, then we start to improve gradually with seeing the best results within 4-6 weeks. Work closely with your doctor with your medication and never hesitate to call if you feel the side effects are becoming too much for you.

During the day, when I get sluggish and foggy, I eat fruit. I also put on some fun music and stretch.

Avatar m tn t a sleep remedy, but it had the unwanted side effect of making people very sedated. These types of drugs were then often marketed, sometimes illegally, for sleep, or used that way by doctors, who can use any approved medication for any purpose they want to. The problem often comes in with the effects of the drug, which it has too, it doesn't just sedate you.
