Headaches

Hi Brandi, I did not take this, but I took Arimidex and had such severe side effects that I had to stop. Reactions to these meds vary; some women do fine on one drug and have reactions to others. I told my doctor right away, she had me stop for a while, tried again, but was always immobilized with pain. It can be dangerous to stop a drug without supervision, as some meds can cause a rebound effect, so check with your doctor. You can look up side effects of fareston here, and search for any other med: www.rxlist.com/fareston-drug.htm
Good luck!

Studies thus far are inconclusive as to whether taking Vitamin C cures, prevents, speeds recovery, or reduces the severity of the symptoms of the common cold.

Most studies have found that taking Vitamin C has no overall noticeable benefit for preventing or treating the common cold.

However, people living in extreme conditions or people under extreme circumstances have reported a 50% reduction in the risk of contracting a cold. The extreme conditions and circumstances include soldiers in sub-arctic exercises, skiers, and marathon runners. This evidence needs to be further investigated to verify these claims.
