| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR SYMMETREL | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 1 | MS Fatigue | Severe depression and suicidal thoughts | I took this for one week and after three days I became weepy. It got gradually worse each day until by day 6 I could barely function and on day 7 was considering suicide. This was by far the worst week of my life. The symptoms ceased within 2 days of stopping the meds. | F | 37 | 1 weeks | 7/24/2008 | 4 | Multiple Sclerosis Fatigue | Brain fog, dizziness at the beginning, went away in a week. | Took one in the morning and one at lunch. That one at lunch would make me have trouble falling to sleep at night. Now I take only one in the morning and it helps with my morning fatigue. | M | 42 | 1 years 100 2X day | 5/21/2010 | 4 | To relieve MS fatigue | Nightmares, throat swelling, trouble sleeping, rash and itching | I took this medicine to relieve MS fatigue, and it worked great, but the side effects are not worth the improvement. | M | 75 | 1 years | 10/2/2007 | 5 | fatty embolism after hip replacemen | None so far. Was extremely tired after awaking from coma following fatty embolism in brain from breaking hip and getting replacement. I was talking but had slow response. This medicine was able to perk me up enough to participate in physical therapy and continue to improve. Tried to go off but it really is improving my mental state. | F | 75 | 4 months 1X day | 12/5/2011 | 5 | Sexual dysfunction fr. antipsychoti | None | It's about as efficacious as Dostinex (.25mg twice weekly), which is to say I only receive partial remediation of my ED and anorgasmia caused by my anti psychotics. I am bipolar. | M | 73 | 30 days 100 2X day | 5/10/2011 |
