New medication prescribed

Personally I had never hear d of this medication until now. I checked it out and thought, yip, scary side effects, but then again I have seen and heard worse by just listening to commercials on TV. I have experienced severe allergic reactions to medications. Have to keep in mind, these "Possible side effects" are possible, but does not mean they will happen to everyone, we are all different as you know. Best suggestion to you is to chat your concerns over with your doctor, could even ask him if there is something else he might prescribe first or if this is your best option for what is happening with you now. Then make the choice of rather you want to take or not take it. If you do choose to take it, now that you know what the "possible" side effects could be, get yourself prepared. For example, diarrhea, vomiting / up set stomach, usually means Hydration will be an issue and needing to eat of course, think of keeping or having extra liquids and bland food on hand that you could tolerate as if you had the flu. Maybe even ask if there is something that you could take if you did have these possible side effects, anti diarrhea, such as o Imodium AD or a prescription of some kind.

Well those are my thoughts, its just one of those things as an individual we have to do. Yuck, right? I wish you the best. Please keep us informed on how and what is happening, we are here to support one another the best we can.

Thank you for your thoughts.
