Title: Favourite Pharm drug & why? and least favourite Pharm drug you have experienced?
Post by: GeorgeMendes on 29/04/2019 16:47:05

The my least favourite and I know this might be a bit controversial.. Gabapentin/Pregabalin .. I’ve only used it once or twice because I really didn’t like the way it made me feel at all, dizzy, lightheaded, uncoordinated etc. Maybe the dose I took was too high for the first time, maybe I should have been better prepared for it?? who knows? but I really don’t understand why people love it so much because it just made me feel really ill and like I was half awake/ half in a dream that I wanted to wake up from!

I think penicillin (for example) should score pretty highly from the point of view of  people who would be dead without it.
