Title: new relpax side effects
Post by leesakw on May 2nd, 2012 at 7:45pm
HI all.  Did a search but did not find this question.  I am on relpax which works pretty well for me.  However, I am noticing some side effects that I haven't seen listed other places. 

I figure the "CH pros" would have good info on it.   

I have talked to folks before about the diuretic effect it has on me, and the temperature regulation issues (getting really cold/hot), but now it seems as if I am noticing a real emotional sensitivity when I take it.

Now, I know I am a 50 year old female, but since I"m not having this trouble when I am NOT taking it, I think it's not daily hormone issues!~

Has anyone else noticed this issue? In the last two years I have had to realign, eliminate, etc. some medicines because they have begun affecting me differently.  I really don't want to lose this one!

This emotionalism is not helpful, but Relpax is the only thing that works reasonably well - eventual side effects from others.  >:(. (have not tried the O2 therapies, yet.  sigh.)

Getting pretty frustrated about this!  Grateful that the CH's are reduced in number, and I don't take that for granted, believe me.  But I can't help but wonder if anyone else has noticed this.  I've been taking it about 2-3 years without this problem....

Thanks all.

Oh.  And I'm not really a newbie.  I just couldn't remember my log in stuff.

Read the entire article although the Professional section is likely to come nearest to having some clues to carry to your doctor (and you'll need a dictionary!)
