Tendency to committ suicide is a side-effect of Startters:\n\n\nLilly to Put Suicide Warning on Strattera Label\n\n\nThursday, September 29, 2005 from Reuters News - Foxnews.com\n\nCHICAGO — Eli Lilly and Co. (LLY) Thursday said it will add strong warnings to its label for Strattera used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, including the risk of suicidal thoughts among children and adolescents.\n\nStrattera will now carry a "black box" warning (search), the strongest required by U.S. regulators. Such warnings typically hurt sales of products by raising concern among doctors and patients about the safety of a drug. The Indianapolis drugmaker said a review of clinical trials data identified a small but statistically significant increased risk of suicidal thoughts among Strattera-treated children and adolescents. \n\ncc

Are you sure you could be pregnant?  I have felt the same way you have before when i was taking the pill and it was due to the pill being too strong for me.  The Patch might be to strong of a dose for you. \nI have also been on the Patch, but i had to stop after a few months of using it, due to me being allergic to it, i was breaking out in a red rash only where i put the Patch.  The doctor told me that i might be allergic to the adhesive in the Patch.  I loved it while it lasted, it was so convenient.  \nYou might also want to do some other research into the Patch, I believe some women have been getting very ill with the Patch.  Ask your Doctor

That's actually a great question, and yes, I've been on the pill for about 3 years now, and at first I did have that problem. I was on ortho tricyclin, which I blame it on. Because it gradually decreases in strength each week, tricyclin pills tend to have adverse side effects n some people. Once I switched to Yasmin, I think it's called a monocyclin, it all got better. That specific pill gives you the same amount of hormone every day of the month. I've been less moody, and more interested, if you know what I mean. The bad part is that Yasmin does not yet have a generic brand so it is a bit more expensive, but I'd totally recomend it. My doctor switched around my prescription right when I said I was feeling moody. \n\nBut then again, I may be totally off.

Yes a long time ago.  It made me really sleepy.  The doctor gave it to me for some chronic shoulder pain.  He told me to quit taking it. Just call your family physican with any questions.  You can always leave a voice mail with the nurse.  They will call you back.  Or call any pharmacy with questions.

yes, dizziness, lightheaded, drowsy, tired, nausea, diarrhea, leg pain, vision problems. Most if not all go away once your body gets used to the medication. If not discuss with your doctor. I also take this medication, but you can get it in the generic form called Atenolol which is alot cheaper.
