Hello
i have been using this drug for many years without problems, but recently I have begun to experience side effects which include swelling hands, ankles and calves.
aching legs and feeling very tired most of the time.
i am going to ask my GP if I can come off of this drug, I am interested in other forum members experience with this perticular drug.
thanks

Well my grandparents were also using it because of being prescribed from the family doctor, and they have recently started facing the same issues. But now they are going through few surgeries and now using an alternative drug. However, I must not mention the name here, as it may not suit you or can cause trouble to you.
They were using it despite being banned in our country, and now facing the consequences. You must also avoid taking them from now on and better to consult a professional doctor. Otherwise, you could again end up taking drug that can cause you trouble in future.
