[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 522513, member: 11791"] Side effects lists are... lists. There are side-effects that are not listed, because they are below "statistical relevance" - but that doesn't matter if YOU end up with that side effect... Know what I mean?? I've always looked at it more as "watch out for" just-in-case lists. One of my difficult children is on a whole cocktail of medications - all coordinated by one psychiatrist, who we trust. The side-effect lists for just ONE of those is 4 pages. psychiatrist goes through with a high-lighter and says... these are what to watch for, the rest is just "irritating", let me know if you don't like how you feel and I'll tell you if its the medication and what we can do about it. It's not an easy process to learn to trust the medications... but when you have the right dosages of the right combo of medications, it's worth it. [/QUOTE]
