I took this med for 3 days and "Warning" it does not mix will with high blood pressure or thyroid meds. I spent the last 3 days with no sleep. Called my Dr. and he told me I should have no problems, when I got the shakes I discontinued using them. Will go to my Primary Doc and see what he says about all of this.

I am 52. Only 10 days in and I am SLEEPING. Hot flashes have stopped - I was having them day and night. Mood is extremely improved. No noticeable weight changes yet, but I want to lose.

After starting this medication I learned about how it is made and I am probably going to look into an alternative that does not involve harvesting mare urine. Hopefully there is an option that will still give me this kind of relief. I'm also a bit worried about the side effects I am reading about so that, combined w/my concern for how this drug is made means I will be looking at alternatives.

My doctor made me wait until I had no period for a full year before going on this drug. I am 59 now and been on it for 5 years. Being on it has improved my sleep, irritability and general sense of well being. Five years later my Dr reduced my dose to .45/1.5mg and I am still doing OK.

I have been taking the lowest dose for 5 weeks now and I have lost weight but I am depressed, crying for no reason and accusing my husband of having an affair.(he has no time for one full time college student and works full time). Nervous, unsettled and now insomnia has started. I just have a feeling of impending doom constantly.
