I've had all those side effects, although not at the same time.

Unacceptable!!! If you can't reach your Pdoc today, at least check with a pharmacist about quitting cold turkey, if that's what you plan to do!!!

No sense trading in one Hell for another!!

Sounds like you could use a med tweak!!! You shouldn't have to go through all that stuff!!!

Good luck!!! Yuck!!! I hope you're feeling side effect-free soon!!! (((((Hugs)))))

I think you should talk to your pdoc first. There may be something else he can give you. The side effects of quitting cold turkey could be worse than what you are going thru now.

Im sorry but I've never taken that drug before so I don't know, definitely talk to the doc about it....sounds like you may need a switch.

This med was developed as a treatment for alzheimers and you're obviously having a bad reaction to it. If you've only started it I'd quit cold. If you've been taking it for awhile talk to your doc. I wish you success!

Those effects are all listed as being "common side effect"...usually they go away , once you adapt to the med.

Tell your Pdoc about them, but these are common side effects of many BP or BP related meds.

sorry, never took.
