  • It was great for me, until it wasn’t. Very effective with tolerable GI side effects, but after about 4 months it completely flattened my emotions. No joy, sadness, or anything in between.

    GI side effects are among the most common, mainly nausea. I know you don’t wanna lie but consider that most providers wouldn’t question a patient reporting intolerable nausea. They may attempt to mitigate this by ordering ondansetron to be taken 30 min prior. Intolerable headache is a relatively common side effect of this one and would likely go unquestioned as well.

    Or you could give it a fair shake… before the flatness set in I thought I’d found the one… hope it does better for you.
