i been taking citalopram 20mg almost a whole month now and this past week i been having diarrhea for five days straight.Is this one of the side affects? ## Citalopram is an SSRI antidepressant and yes, it can cause diarrhea, as a side effect. Usually side effects should hit their peak at around 4 to 6 weeks of use, once the medication hits its full level of effectiveness in the body, then they should taper off. If it doesn't, or if it becomes more severe, you should contact your doctor, as you may require a lower dosage or switch to a different medication.

I have come across some small, round, green pills with what appears to be a "P" in a circle on one side, and L over 10 on the other side. Can anyone help identifying these pills? Thank you ## This is a 10mg pms-Loxatine pill from Canada. It's made by PharmaScience. It's used for scitzophrenia and other mood issues. ## The pills that John mentioned are capsules, not tablets. They contain Fluoxetine and have the PharmaScience PMS logo on them. As to this one, which you said is a tablet, with just the P and L10 on it, I am sorry, but I can't find a listing for this in any of our prescription drug resources. However, I will keep looking and post back if I find anything. Do you happen to know their country of origin?

Hi..im so depressed when i took 3 tabets of sleepasil so i wnt to sleep and at the same time im not feeling well my heart is like beating so slow and its like someone is leaning on my chest a heavy one which i feel like i can not breath.. ## See a doctor ## I second the statement that you need to consult a doctor. And Sleepasil is actually not a sleeping pill, it is an over the counter supplement that claims to help with sleep, but this is not actually scientifically, or medically proven. In addition, taking more than the recommended amount isn't safe, just because it is an over the counter product, because some of them can be very potent. Have you consulted a doctor, yet?

Everyone, I was subscribed wellbutrin XL (150mg) about a year ago. I take it once a day along with 40mg of lexapro for severe depression and anxiety. A couple days ago (like an idiot) I decided to try and smoke the wellbutrin. PLEASE DO NOT LECTURE ME ON DRUG ABUSE - this thread is for help only please (and I plan on NEVER doing this again). I ended up smoking on the order of 11-12 pills. I have been unable to eat for the last 3 days. If I eat I always throw up. I also have painful chest congestion/phlegm. Mostly i'm worried i've damaged my lungs and/or throat with the vapors. Is this possible? Also, is it possible to be poisoned by this amount - if so can I safely wait it out at home? Please get back to me quickly. ## I'd suggest consulting a doctor, just to be on the safe ...

What kind of side effects does Zoloft have? ## Many, but the most common are: being less sexually active, restlessness, tiredness (especially when you first start taking it), headaches, and possible mood swings (especially if the drug isn't right for you). As being a Zoloft user myself, I can say I've only experienced sexual side effects (and I'm only 24!) and the headaches, but the headaches were from when I stopped taking it on a regular basis. Oh, and it comes packed w/ some pretty bad withdrawls if not weaned from it properly. ## Hello there Sara. I did not like Zoloft at all. I felt like a zombie. My reactions were extremely slow. I was shakey and felt clamy all over..Not very talkative. I felt like I was trapped inside my own body for a FULL 24 hours. Mind you .. I onl...

I was prescribed Zoloft and I took it one time and it made me feel worse than better. Was it my nerves telling me that or was it a reaction to the pill? ## Zoloft and any other antidepressant is not a quick fix. It takes time for your body to adjust to the meds and sometimes the meds don't work for you. It is extremely important to have a doctor monitoring your medication so they can find the right one for you and the right dosage. I started taking Zoloft and I started feeling worse before it started working, but as the dr. gradually increased the dosage and my body adjusted...I feel better than ever! ## I had the same thing happen to me I felt so bad but I stuck with it and slowly my body ajusted and I feel like a normal person again. You just have to deceide if its worth it. I fel...
