::..MEDICINAL REVIEWS..::

Mucinex is an over-the-counter expectorant used to get the gooey mucus out of your lungs. While it costs more than your average cold medicine (about $9 at Wal-Mart) it is well worth the price. It does an excellent job of clearing mucus from the lungs as well as thinning mucus in general through out the body. This is also an excellent alternative for those who may have heart difficulties and should not be taking pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) as it does not affect the heart. The one drawback of this medication is an inconvenient side effect that rapidly disappears once you stop taking it. I have come to call this medicine the “stinky pee pee pill” as it definitely changes the odor of urine. If you smell the bottle once you open it you can expect your urine to smell a strong version of that. THE BOTTOM LINE: It works and a bit of a smell is worth the benefits.

To say that Triaminic Expectorant cough formula works well is an understatement. I recently had a bad cough from a cold. For the first few days, the cough wasn’t that bad. It was simply a dry cough that didn’t interfere too much with my day to day living. After a few days, though, my chest started to feel tight. That night, before I went to bed I put the vaporizer on, hoping that the hot steam would break up the congestion I was having in my chest. I slept pretty good with the vaporizer, but when I woke up the next morning, my chest and lungs were so congested, it was hard to catch my breath. When I coughed, nothing would come up so I couldn’t clear my lungs. I tried taking a cough medicine that I had in the house, but it did absolutely nothing to break up the chest congestion. Upon further investigation, I realized that what I took was a cough suppressant, meaning that it suppresses the cough or quiets it, but it does nothing to break up congestion or help thin out
and bring up mucus the way that an expectorant does. So off to Walgreens I went in search of a cough medicine that would work on this horrendous congestion. I knew that if whatever I bought didn’t work, I would have to go to the doctor, because I could not go on any longer with this cough.

As I was looking through the maze of cough and cold medications, I cam across Triaminic Expectorant. I was looking for something to clear out my mucus and I hoped this would work. I asked the pharmacist about it and he told me that an expectorant should do the trick to loosen and bring up the mucus. I couldn’t wait to get home to take the cough medication so I could get some relief. I took the yellow cough medicine as directed and then I waited to see what happened. It didn’t particularly taste that great, but I didn’t care. I just wanted it to work. After an hour or so, when I coughed, I noticed that the mucus was starting to get thinner and easier to bring up. I took two doses of Triaminic that day and noticed that it started getting easier and easier to cough. By the second day, my chest congestion was almost 100% better. My chest didn’t feel congested and I could breath much better. I didn’t have that terrible not being able to catch my breath feeling anymore. That is
very frightening. This product worked extremely well for me and I highly recommend it. As always, I recommend that you talk to your doctor or health care provider before taking Triaminic or any other medication to make sure it is right for you.

Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion helped me with chest congestion that I had with a bad cold. The active ingredient in Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion is Guaifenesin which is an expectorant. An expectorant is a medication that loosens up and thins mucous, making it easier for it to come up. My chest congestion was so bad, that it felt like my chest was on fire every time I coughed. I thought I might have pneumonia
. Also, at night it seemed like I couldn’t stop coughing. This really scared me because I had a hard time catching my breath. I tried using the vaporizer and I got in the hot shower, but the chest congestion persisted until I took the recommended dosage of 2 teaspoons of the cherry flavored Robitussin. It was as I remembered it as a child. Spicy cherry.

After about an hour my chest congestion began to break. This was the first relief that I had in days. The mucous was extremely easy to bring up. I won’t even say that I had to cough to bring up the mucous. It seemed like if I just cleared my throat, it would come up. Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion, helped relieve my chest congestion and stop my nighttime coughing.

As a registered nurse who works with an elderly population, I find that Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion is commonly prescribed by the physicians for patients who complain of cough due to cold, flu or allergies. Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion seems very well tolerated in the elderly population, as it was by me. I had no adverse reactions or side effects from this medication. Sometimes certain cough and cold preparations give me an upset stomach, but I had no ill effects from the Robitussin.

Robitussin has been a staple in our house ever since I was a kid. The taste or texture of it hasn’t changed much at all. It’s tastes exactly how I remembered it 25 years ago. Every one in my family at one time or another had taken Robitussin when I was a child.

In addition to the expectorant that it contains as one of it’s active ingredients, it also contains a cough suppressant. It was by the cough suppressant component of the Robitussin that I stopped coughing at night. I don’t know what was worse - having the chest congestion or having the hacking cough at night. Having them both was a double whammy that Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion thankfully relieved.

My mother recently purchased this product for herself when she had a cough due to a cold. Her doctor recommended that she take it. The Robitussin helped her stop coughing too. This was especially important to her because in addition to her cough, she has osteoporosis that causes her to get back pain whenever she coughs.

I highly recommend Robitussin Cough and Chest Congestion for anyone who has a cough due to cold, flu or allergies. As always, make sure you check with your doctor or healthcare provider before taking this or any medication.

This particular cough syrup is a little different because it does two things from just one bottle. When you are buying a cough syrup it is important to get the right one. There are two types one being a suppressant and the other an expectorant.

This bottle of Robitussin DM enables you to breath comfortably by suppressing the mucus but at the same time it when you cough it allows you to pull just a little mucus out so not to gag or choke.

The bottle is ok for children over two years old, just check with your pediatrician if you’re not sure. My son is four years old and I gave it to him because he couldn’t get any sleep
for coughing. This is where the suppressant comes in handy. Then when he does wake to cough it’s just a small amount instead of some thirty minute coughing and choking along with vomit episode filled with mucus.

I am completely satisfied with this product for a couple of different reasons. Reason number one is because it is so cost efficient. The second reason is the label is so informative, which if you have read any of my other reviews would know that having a good label is very important to me. The third reason is for the actually syrup, not bad tasting and works very well.

I give this product two thumbs up with a rating of ten. If you would like additionally information about this product or company you can visit them on the web at www.Robitussin.com.

I had this nagging cough from a cold recently. It seemed that nothing was helping to quiet it. I was losing sleep. I felt like I was the noisiest person at the office. I saw Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels on the Wal-Mart shelf in the pharmacy area in the cold remedies section.

The first thing that I liked about the Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels was the pricing. They were not priced sky high like some of the other cold products on the market. I was able to get a bottle of 20 cough gels for around 8 bucks.

I trust the name Robitussin. I have used numerous other Robitussin products and felt more confident buying something for my cough with this name brand.

The Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels were easy to swallow. The medicine is all inside of a soft red gel capsule. The good thing was the capsule was not so big that I felt like I was going to choke when I took them with water. I am not one for huge pills, particularly when my throat is already sore from all of that coughing.

The main ingredient listed on the bottle is Dextromethorphan Hbr. This is an actual cough suppressant. It is so strong that you do not have to take the Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels more than once or twice a day. They recommend that you take it around every 8 hours. I found that it would work for about 10 hours for me the first couple of days. Then after that it seemed to work longer as my cold got better. I guess it really depends on how much you end up coughing while you are sick on how well it will work for you and last for you.

I cannot stand the taste of most cough syrups. With the Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels, I do not have to worry about that. None of the flavor of the cough suppressant was noticeable when I swallowed the gel pills. I think you should only take them with cold water or a cold drink. I did it one time with some decaffeinated coffee and the gels seemed to dissolve a little in my mouth. This is good in a way because you know they are dissolving quickly to get into your system and start working. I notice that I start to feel relief from my cough in about 15 minutes after taking the Robitussin Long-Acting Cough Suppressant Cough Gels.

I had urinary tract infection two months ago which caused me to have frequent, painful urination and lower abdominal pain. Aside from this, I developed high grade fever associated with chills. I also had episodes of nausea and bouts of vomiting which caused me to have some dehydration.

Because of this I went to the hospital where I was working and had my urine examined in the laboratory. And when they handed me the result, I was able to confirm that I really have urinary tract infection.

And so, looking through the stock of sample medications the medical representatives gave me, I was able to spot Inoflox Ofloxacin 200mg tablet which is very good for cases of urinary tract infection. I took one tablet twice a day for seven days and I was really able to see some improvement even after the first twenty-four hours of regular intake of this medication. I have noted that my fever has already subsided and I was no longer having chills. After two days, nausea and vomiting episodes were completely gone.

Thus I highly recommend this medication to people experiencing symptoms of urinary tract infection. But be sure to ask your physician first before taking anything because your doctor still knows what is best for you.

There is nothing more uncomfortable than finding yourself down with a urinary tract infection (or UTI). These can be incredibly painful with symptoms ranging from an uncomfortable urgency to urinate, to a burning sensation, abdominal cramps and even blood in the urine, which be disconcerting to say the least. Needless to say, I usually experience these symptoms in excess before I decide I need to pay the $25 for my insurance co-pay to see the doctor. However, it’s also one of those conditions you almost always know for certain what it is. Once you’ve experienced it, that level of discomfort will forever be engrained in your memory… trust me on this. So, I recently experienced a very painful UTI that came out of nowhere. Usually I have a few days warning with some urgency symptoms before the real pain sets in, but not this time. I went straight to the doctor and he prescribed me Bactrim. After a completed round on this medication, he noticed I was still showing signs in my
urine tests of the UTI, but wanted to run some cultures before prescribing me anything else. Since the cultures take a good five days to come in, I was basically dealing with the discomfort of a UTI for all five of those days. Towards the third day, I decided enough was enough, and I would head to the pharmacy and get myself something that would work, at least until I heard back from the doctor.

Since Rite Aid is just down the street, I headed there first. There is a name brand UTI relief medication that was a little pricey, so I decided to go for the Rite Aid Urinary Tract Relief pills that only cost about $8 for the box, with enough pills to last a week. You are only supposed to use the pills (two every four-six hours) for a maximum of two days before seeing a doctor, if pain consists, but since I knew I would be hearing back from the doctor soon, I knew there was nothing to worry about. Two days of discomfort was something I definitely couldn’t afford to deal with. So, I began taking the medication with a full glass of water, and kept drinking water throughout the day (per the directions on the box), and really began sensing relief after just 30 minutes, which was like a breath of fresh (and painfree) air. I took the medication for the allotted two days, and felt a great deal of relief. Though it didn’t get rid of the symptoms entirely, it worked almost better than the
prescription strength stuff my doctor had previously prescribed me to treat UTI symptoms.

If you ever find yourself in the same boat, I definitely suggest saving yourself the headache and buying this medication and trying it out for two days. Be sure to research holistic approaches and dietary recommendations to treat and prevent UTI’s while taking this… after all, this only treats the symptoms, not the infection. And if the symptoms recur after you stop taking this after your two day time period, then definitely go to a doctor as soon as possible, as UTI’s can lead to more complications and more serious problems. But, as a temporary solution, this is highly recommended.

The worst urinary track infection that ever occurred to me was in 1992. My son was barely four years old then and while I was putting him to sleep when I suddenly felt a very sharp pain that was hardly bearable that I really cried hard. I felt a very strong urge to pass water but when as I sat down the toilet bowl there were but few drops of urine that passed and after which I felt a very painful sensation on my vagina. Even before this worst condition came, I already noticed I was having difficulty urinating although I felt my bladder was filled and felt like bursting already. Obviously my condition worsened as terrible pain was felt by me not just on my genital but also on my lower abdomen.

Obviously the condition was urinary tract infection and I knew all along because there were numerous times I held my urge to urinate for long. Many times was waiting too long before I could pass water because I was busy with taking care of my child and with household chores too. Indeed when I went to the doctor, she almost scolded me for being a willing victim of UTI. She explained that the bladder is a muscle that stretches to hold urine and contracts when the urine is released and if waiting too long even if one feels already the urge to urinate, it can cause the bladder to stretch beyond its capacity and hence will weaken and will no longer have the capacity to release the urine entirely and eventually those unreleased urine will trigger infection. I would admit that I knew that explanation long before but I disregarded it. Hence, I suffered the consequences of disregarding. I remembered my doctor gave me pain reliever and apart from this she prescribed that I take antibiotic.
The name of antibiotic is Bactrim. I remembered that this same antibiotic was prescribed to my husband when he suffered from UTI sometime ago too. This antibiotic healed my husband and I was hopeful it could heal me too. All I wanted then was healing because the pain was truly beyond my capacity to bear. I was swearing to high heavens that should I get healed I would never ever disregard the call of nature ever again. So, I took Bactrim three times a day every 6 hours. I was told to complete the seven days medication. I am happy that that my conditioned got so much improvement even just on the third day of taking Bactrim. But I did not stop with the medication but continued as the doctor prescribed. On the 8th day I went back to the doctor as instructed even if I felt the urinary tract infection was completely cleared already. I was given another urine test and the result was very satisfying. The infection indeed was completely healed by Bactrim. Nevertheless, I knew Bactrim is
an antibiotic so even if it had been effective in healing me, I would not want to take antibiotic again so since then I took extra care so that I could prevent having this infection or if not to immediately treat early signs of urinary tract infection so that there would be no need for me to take antibiotic again.

One of the worst things about being diabetic is dealing with injuries to the foot. I was outside and carelessly stepped on a nail. Thank goodness I’d had a tetanus shot previously. My doctor put me on Bactrim pills to keep me from getting any infection in my foot. He wanted to be on the side of caution and not take any risks.

I was a little irritated at the cost of Bactrim. The pill was more than I thought it would be after my insurance coverage. But at the same time, I was lucky I didn’t have to have stitches. So, I swallowed and paid for it.

One of the first problems I experienced after taking Bactrim was stomach cramps and constantly running to the bathroom. This was not good. I was really worried about getting dehydrated from the medicine. Not to mention, it didn’t feel good to constantly have to get up and walk around my injured foot.

A friend of mine told me to take the Bactrim with yogurt. I tried that. It seemed to help with the stomach cramps and going to the bathroom. About the sixth day of taking the medicine, I ended up with nausea. It would hit me about half an hour after taking it. I ended up having to get an over-the-counter medicine to get rid of the nausea to keep taking the antibiotic. So frustrating!

What ended up happening with my foot? I kept it clean like I was instructed to do. I kept taking the Bactrim, despite the side effects. My foot ended up healing without any infection.

Hi friends, today I want to review the latest and trendy type of nail polish, the name of that company is Revlon and since I am using it for my nails, my hands are just looking very very pretty, because almost all the shades of Revlon nail polish are so good, attractive, shiny and even it doesn’t peel soon, and one more thing I want to tell u is that
When we apply the nail polish on our nail within a few seconds it gets dried and u don’t really need to wait for a long time, I have used many type of nail polishes but the Revlon nail polish
is just too good and no one can beet them. And not only that u can even get the Revlon nail polish remover, which is good as well. So I suggest Revlon nail polish to be used by all the women.

I was tired of soap pads that scratched my expensive pot’s and pan’s and a friend suggested I try Scotch-Brite All Purpose Soap Pads. She had used them without any damage to her cookware, so I paid $3.99CDN for a box of 8 pads at my local supermarket.

What really impressed me about the Scotch-Brite soap pads was the advertisement on the front of the box that promised they ‘never scratch’, I was so hoping it was true and I did have my friends endorsement to go on. Even better, the back of the box stated that these soap pads were made from 100% recycled materials, so I felt good that I was helping the environment and getting my dishes clean at the same time.

When I opened the package of Scotch-Brite All Purpose Soap Pads, I noticed that they looked a little different from the traditional SOS pad. They didn’t feel sticky in my hand, so I was confident they didn’t contain a lot of harsh soap, and they didn’t look or feel like they were made out of wire, in fact they just looked like grey cylinders of fluff!

Boy was I impressed the first time I used Scotch-Brite pads on some really dirty pans. They cleaned lasagne residue off a glass pan without leaving a single scratch, and I didn’t have to pre-soak the pan either! On metal pans they cleaned burnt soap far quicker than any SOS pad without leaving a lot of suds I had to rinse off. I am so impressed, especially when I have to throw one away, as these soap pads are totally biodegradable.

If you like me don’t like your pots and pans getting all scratched from traditional pot scrubbers try Scotch-Brite Never Scratch All Purpose Soap Pads. I find I simply cannot live without them in my kitchen! Scotch-Brite is made by the 3M Division of Companies under the Home Care Division.

I really use highlighters quite a bit for all of my notes and texts. Finding a good highlighter to use sounds easy, but most of them run out of ink way before I need them to. I have been usuing the same BIC Brite Liners for almost a year now. They come in a 5 pack of colours. Almost every day I use them and they still have ink! They do not make the page moist where I highlight it, so it is not wasting ink. The colours are bright, but still easy on the eyes. The tips are cut at an angle so you can highlight them while holding them like you normally would a pen and you get a clean, fully covered highlight of normal sized text in one pass. Each pen even has it’s own clip so you can carry it around. Sometimes if I am colour coding I only need to work with one colour at a time and need to carry only one of them with me, so the clip works wonders so I don’t lose it. I recommend these to everyone because these are perfect for kids going to school, college students, or general
use around the house.

We are unable to plug in a night light in our hallway or bathroom; making it very difficult to see at night unless we actually turn on a light (something that I would prefer not to do). Needing light in those two places and a few other areas, we purchased a 10-pack of Quik Brite LED lights.

The lights run on batteries so there’s no need to plug them in. However, the quality the give us doesn’t add up to the price we paid.

For one, 8 of the lights have magnets that need to be separated from the lights to make them work. The idea behind this is, you put the light on a door with the magnet next to it and, when the door is closed, the light stays off; when the door is opened, it comes on. The magnets need to be within an inch of the light. This just isn’t practical in many of the areas we would like to use them.

The sticky tape on the back of the lights also isn’t that strong. I have two lights in my pantry. Each morning, I find one on the floor. I can keep the light up if I use clear duct tape. But, that dims the light so much, it isn’t worth having it in the pantry any more.

I spent $15 on 10 lights; $1.50 each. Considering only two have worked successfully for us, I feel like I was ripped off. If you’re looking to light areas of your house, these are definitely not worth your money.

Doral is a middle tier cigarette maker. They don’t quite reach the ranks of, say, Marlboro or Camel, but they aren’t a cheapie generic brand either: they are comfortably in the middle. So when I recently bought a pack of Doral Lights, I was expecting a pretty much middle of the road cigarette. I was right.

In price they aren’t bad (about a dollar cheaper than the big name brands), and in taste they aren’t bad either (right on average, they aren’t as flavorful as the big names but they don’t have the bad taste often associated with the cheapies). Which is why I call them a perfect middle of the road cigarette.

They are certainly better than similarly priced cigarettes, say Basic for example, which is in my humble opinion one of the worst cigarettes ever made. I don’t know how Basic was able to make such a bad tasting cigarette, but they are horrible. Dorals, however, are just fine: nothing to write home about, but nothing to write a bunch of complaints about either. They are a basic cigarette, perfectly functional, adequate taste, they provide just what you need and want in a cigarette without getting too fancy. Not a bad smoke.

The most common side effect I suffer from taking antibiotics and even ibuprofen is that I get an upset stomach and even a diarrhea
. I find this very disturbing that the last time I had to take antiobiotics, I mentioned this immediately to the doctor. He was saying that I should eat yoghurt but since I don’t like eating these products despite the many flavors that are available nowadays, he prescribed Ultra Levure.

Ultra Levure is meant to complement antibiotic treatment and is also a therapy for upset stomach and diarrhea
. It also serves as an oral rehydration therapy when diarrhea is persistent which could lead to dehydration.

This medication is presented in a small bottle of 20 capsules. I love that they are in a capsule form because it is my favorite form of taking any medication
. In addition, the capsules are not big which make them more attractive to me. I just pop it in my mouth and down it with water. There’s no unpleasant aftertaste afterwards.

My children also take this medication when they are on antibiotics and even prefer this over yoghurts (which they like) as it is quicker to take. I understand this as when they are sick, they are not really in the mood to eat anything. They take the suspension version though as at these ages, they are still not able to handle capsules. Moreover, drinking the oral suspension is easier for them as it is tasteless and just milkish in color.

I usually take Ultra Levure 3 times a day – after each meal although the doctor gave me the liberty of choosing when I can take them. However, as I usually take my antibiotics before each meal, I just found it easier to take the complement medication after each meal to simplify matters.

I respond quite quickly to this oral medication and within a day, my stomach felt better with diarrhea altogether disappearing on the 2nd day. As my antibiotic treatment usually lasts for 5-10 days, then I do the same with Ultra-Levure. Once, I do not feel any stomach discomfort anymore which is usually on the 5th or 6th day, then I lower my dosage or skip on it altogether.

I have not experienced any counter reaction to this medication at all. I would expect so because it is meant to mitigate the effects of antibiotics use. If anything, it made taking antibiotics bearable and more comfortable with less queasy stomach and diarrhea occurences.

For this major reason, I would not hesitate to take Ultra Levure again the next time I get an upset stomach
or diarrhea due to antibiotics. It is in an oral form that I like to take, easy to swallow, no side effects and are the best complementary therapy to antibiotic treatment. In fact, it is the only oral therapy I know of which was prescribed to me by my doctor. As to the price, each bottle costs €2,90 which is not a fortune. Overall, it made taking antibiotics easier and with less side effects by improving my digestive system and even preventing diarrhea.

skilax (sulfolax) is a laxative that is used for the treatment of chronic constipation. this is the best available laxative. it is most affective laxative. but it should not be used be for a long time. this laxative is more affective than lactulose and other laxative and it is taken as drops. the drops of laxtaive are mixed in a cup of water and usually 10-15 drops is the main dose. usually i have noticed that it is affective in 8-10 hours but sometimes it takes 10-14 hours. if you have problem of frequent constipation you can try this laxative it is much better and easy to use as compared to the other laxative available in the market but laxative should not be taken for a long and it is recommended that this laxative should not be used for more than a week

I have had anxiety
problems off and on for years now. The last time I went to the doctors he gave me prozac. It took away all of my anxiety problems and didn’t cause any other anxiety problems. The only thing that I did notice a little bit was weight gain. even that wasn’t that bad. The only other medicine I have been on for anxiety
was paxil and I hated that, I felt like it brainwashed me. If you can understand that at all, I know it sounds kind of crazy but if anyone does know what I am talking about prozac does not do that to you at all. It was also pretty easy to go off of the medicine. I wasn’t on it for a couple of months and then I felt like I didn’t need it any more so thats when I decided to stop taking it. When I was on paxil it made me feel like I needed it. Another thing that I liked about prozac is that if you miss one day it isn’t that big of a deal, not saying that you should do it, but it didn’t make my anxiety come back all of a sudden like paxil did. It takes a couple of days for prozac to do that to me. The only thing I didn’t like about it was that I started to see weight gain but that wasn’t that bad and I have had problems with gaining weight for a while now so it could have not even been that. The doctor gave me a generic brand that I got at walmart for $4.00. That’s really cheap so thats another thing I liked about it.

I have been prescribed Clonazepam, or the Generic form of the brand-name medicine “Klonopin,” off and on for some years now. I’ve found, as far as benzodiazepines (or “benzos,” for short) go, it is the most effective, by far, of the ones I’ve tried for my anxiety. In fact, it’s probably the most effective substance, period, for relief of my anxiety symptoms that I’ve encountered. It trumps alcohol, Prozac, and other benzos in strength and efficacy. I do, however, definitely begin to notice a tolerance build-up fairly quickly.

The other benzo I’ve tried extensively is Lorazepam, or the Generic form of “Ativan.” Comparatively, Clonazepam has had a much more quick and severe effect at reduction of my anxiety, whereas Lorazepam works in a much more background, subtle manner. I find that, within 25 minutes of taking .5 mg of Clonazepam, I will feel a significant effect, with some sense of drowsiness, or even elation, whereas with the same dosage of Lorazepam, I only feel a slight de-escalation of my anxiety, with no elation and a sort of drugged feeling that I don’t often get when taking Clonazepam.

Clonazepam does, as I have mentioned, begin to build up a tolerance in your system fairly quickly, however. This effect, on a daily .5 mg dosage, begins to be noticeable within about a week. This is something one has to watch out for, however, with all of these medications, and the trick is to not fall into the “trap” of having to increase your dose. Therefore, I tend to take Clonazepam “PRN,” or as needed, and I will often only take half or even a quarter of a pill. I tend to only take a full pill if I’m feeling particularly anxious, or anticipate that a certain daily situation is going to be make me feel very anxious.

Overall, I recommend Clonazepam, but with caution - it is a potnetially addictive drug, again. However, it pretty much works when all other medications fail to make a dent in an anxiety reaction.

If you suffer from clinical anxiety
like I have my whole life, and I’m not talking about stress that you can treat with yoga and exercise, but clinically diagnosed anxiety, Clonazapan, or Klonipin, can be a life saver.

I was once so overwhelmed with anxiety that I became dysfunctional at work and remember nearly having a brain anuerism and having to be hospitalized because of a blood pressure count of 250/70. After being prescribed this tiny little pill that I take twice a day, I feel as calm as the waters on Walden Pond.

Being a sufferer of anxiety and depression my entire life, I have tried it all. Paxil, which is popularly prescribed, actually has a side effect of anxiety! Doctors in the past warned me that I could get addicted to Klonipin. Oh yeah, but they have no problem getting me addicted on the mainstream drugs that you see advertised on television all the time!

I only take two a day and there are no side effects! My hypertension
has increased and I can focus clearly on the task at hand. If you suffer from chronic panic attacks, ask your doctor for this miraculous pill that can at least give you the capability of taking action to get your life in order if you are chaotic because of panic and anxiety.

I have suffered from generalized anxiety disorder
(also called ‘free floating anxiety
) for all of my adult life. Not until I was 40 years old did I find help through medication. Paxil, or, paroxetine, which is the generic name, is an SSRI ( selective seratonin reuptake inhibitor) which works on the chemical imbalance that causes or exacerbates anxiety and the depression which can accompany it. I cannot tell you the success I have had with this medication! Before, I made decisions based on my anxious responses and fearfulness. I avoided lots of activities for fear of making mistakes, saying something that others may construe as stupid and just plain “nervousness”. I felt it was just safer to be at home, where I felt I could keep everything ‘in order’ and under control. I used this coping mechanism, known as ‘avoidance behavior’ as an attempt to control my anxiety attacks
. I was frequently having them, cried every day, would awaken at night feeling overwhelming dread, fear and just totally anxious…I would relive my days activities to reassure myself that I had not made some kind of mistake or neglected to do something I felt I should have done. It was an exhausting, sad and horrifying way to live. The Paxil worked for my quickly and with no side effects! I remember the first time I took it, a few hours later I had this remarkable ‘normal’ feeling…I was no longer consumed with worry! It was thrilling! All the worries I had about ‘getting my personality from a bottle’ were totally unfounded! I had no side effects, only blessed relief from the stress and unbelievable strain of living with anxiety. Many people give up on finding help for anxiety, I urge you not to be one of them. There are so many new, wonderful medications on the market. If one doesn’t work, or has untolerable side effects, take heart, don’t give up and try another. Paxil has worked wonders for me, given me my life back and allowed me to enjoy many things I was missing out on because of anxiety.
