I've seen the commercial for the TD med, too, and wondered about it. Then I read all the side effects and while I'm usually stoic when it comes to accepting side effects, the possible ones from that TD med sound downright creepy.
Thanks Rainbow  |
Yeah, the TD med looks strong. It's too bad they can't come out with meds that work gently. I just was diagnosed with bladder spasms and an overactive bladder and am on this med that has such annoying side effects 80% of people stop taking the category of meds within one year. I guess they decide to suffer in silence. For me I am ok with the side effects compared to psych meds but it's making me so sleepy. Not at night obviously (fel asleep and woke up...ugh) but I have a very hard time waking before noon and many days if I can take a nap I do.. I hate it.
I hope you get answers soon.
