Drugs.com Recenzje 11

Ineffective medicine laid out for narcolepsy patient.
Drugs.com is supposed to be open-minded, instead Drugs.com wants to block reviews that are genuinely necessary for patients. The whole idea of a review is to improve the standard of practice, though occasionally one or two reviews are malicious. Drugs.com had worked hard to block my reviews. My review is about the new Nuvigil 250 mg by Apotex pharmaceutical. For those who do not know, there is a strange disease called Narcolepsy. Narcolepsy can make the victim sleep for 23 hours which is far from anything good. A drug called Nuvigil pioneered by CEPHALON has been effective in keeping people awake and alert and it is the gold standard for managing Narcolepsy. I have used Nuvigil by Cephalon and it is excellent. Later, Teva started manufacturing Nuvigil. The Teva product is also good but not as good as Cephalon product.
By October 2025 a company called Apotex took over 100% the manufacture and distribution of Nuvigil. The New Nuvigil 250 mg manufactured by Apotex Pharmaceutical is a complete disaster. Instead of keeping people awake and alert, this new Nuvigil does the paradox, it sends the patient into deep sleep slumber for 23 hours to 30 hours. Drugs.com is supposed to tolerate reviews that inform and educate the patient. Nuvigil 250 mg by Apotex is a new product. I do have narcolepsy, I am a physician and I have been taking Nuvigil 250 mg manufactured by Apotex in the past two months. My confession is obvious, Nuvigil 250 mg by Apotex is completely ineffective. I have already had a near fatal accident, because I slept off behind the steering wheel with no warning, even though I had taken Nuvigil 250 mg (Apotex). When I wrote a review on drugs.com about my recent experience about Nuvigil 250mg (APOT), Drugs.com blocked it.

I just want to say first that alot of reviews on drugs.com are from people who just started taking a medication a few weeks ago or a few months ago, I would take these with a grain of salt. You should pay more attention to the reviews from long term users, at least a year in my opinion. Yes, medications affect everyone differently. Sometimes they do start working right away and change people's lives for the better. That's great! BUT I've had side affects start to show up from medications after 6 months to almost 1.5 years. Some were pretty nasty. I've also seen others reviews on trustpilot about them only showing good reviews for medications and it does seem that way for most of them, especially since that is the majority of the reviews you see first.

I created an account a couple of years ago for using the drug interaction checker. When I tried to log back in yesterday, it blocked me from my data, unless I gave them "consent" to share my personal medical/health data with third parties! (Um, No.)

The site said that I could contact support. All they provide is a web form to contact them. I wanted to ask them to provide my data and they can delete my account, I don't even want the account now that I know what kind of company this is.
BUT the web form will not allow you to send them a message unless you disable all tracking protection from your browser.
And even then wouldn't work.
This is another example of a company that aggressively breaks or blocks access if you use privacy tools.

PS Under laws like GDPR (Europe) and PIPEDA (Canada), you have the right to access and receive a copy of any identifiable personal information a company holds about you (I'm in Canada.)

The website is all messed up. I can no longer login. And when I try the Forgot Password link, it won't darken and take a click. Is there another place I can check drug interactions?

I have tried twice to put a review about Mounjaro which almost killed me. None of my reviews were put on it. I think drugs.com are taking payments from certain companies to keep out most of the negative reviews. I think they just publish a few to keep it looking realistic. This drug has actually killed people ! An A&E doctor actually told me that he has had other patients come in very sick because of Mounjaro as well. He told me in other hospitals people had died.

Literally pointless, doesn't let me post a review for anything, why even have the website in the first place?

Where is all this positive energy coming from?
Will update with how much weight gain

Please take drugs.com drug reviews with a grain of salt. drugs.com does not post all drug reviews. For example, drugs.com did not post my Rybelsus review. In each of my 3 one-week Rybelsus trials, I took 3 mg Rybelsus at least 30 minutes before breakfast with 1,000 mg Metformin, 12.5 Carvedilol and 5 mg Eliquis. I experienced erratic and extreme ups and downs in heart rate, blood pressure and pulse intensity mainly after taking Rybelsus or on each of the next few mornings after stopping Rybelsus. Surprisingly the Rybelsus Medication Guide does not provide consumers or prescribers any guidance on the life-threatening heart palpitations that many others probably experience. The other serious Rybelsus problems were blurry vision, difficult urination and bowel movement, weakness, tiredness, and minimal appetite with 5 pounds weight loss and likely associated dehydration. I do not recommend Rybelsus for anyone.

The website itself is a really invaluable public information resource, it’s the only place I know where I can conveniently check drug interactions and feel safe.

Today I just had this really weird and bad experience, enough for me to want to write this review.

They run ads on their page of course to monetize it. I don’t know but it might be google ads.

I was just scrolling along and I see this really weird ad, there’s like disgusting amount of what looks to be foot fungus or some kind of necrotic, uncontrollable growth. To see that just flash by unexpected while you think you’re on a medical website for neutral information genuinely bugged me emotionally. It was one of those really weird ads where you are not even sure why the ad appears to be such poor quality, it’s almost like a surreal ad. There’s the foot, a huge vine of garlic, and then a skeleton clutch its neck in red, indicative of spinal pain.

It’s for some herbal remedy company called Nuubu.

I keep scrolling and they have 4, 5 ads like this. It’s just something about how surreal, nonsensical, intrusive, out of place, and viscerally disgusting these ads are that made me feel like there was something wrong here. They do not seem to have filtered ads where they only show good sensible professional stuff. It’s like a seemingly medical website without oversight since they’re showing what I consider to be really unprofessional, out of place and actually bothersome ads.

They really should fix this.

Useful site for information but slow at reviewing reviews or simply not making them live.

I have reviewed multiple treatments on their site and only a few got made public which idk why because they dont contain swearing or anything? i would say thats the only bad side, slow speeds for reviews posted being made live.
