Just read the possible 'Side Effects' on the Leaflets with my Tablets. Swear to God, I'll never do it again. Frightened me to death!!

Oh I'm sorry Welshwoman, that's a big no, no!
In all the years I've taken medications, I have Never, googled it or read the enclosed
pamphlets. I have always felt that info was more for the protection of the drug company
in covering all bases. When your doctor prescribes a medication for you, it's with your health history in mind.
Take the medication w/o any self doubts from the pamphlet enclosed or negative thoughts from others who have taken the same med. In doing this, you will give yourself a chance for your doctor to find the right med and the right dose that will work just for you.
We live and learn. xx Good Luck dear.
I agree with Agora that they are very scary and that you shouldn't read them. The problem is that, in my case, I just can't help reading and then get worried.
I never read them now because you can have psychsematic symptoms and that's scarier !
I always read the leaflet if given new medication to see if they are compatible with all my other medications ( I'm not allowed anything with codeine or morphine in them because of my medication), other than that I never look at the side effects, did it once and it scared me badly
That's what scared me last night. I'm on quite a lot of other Tablets as well apart from Anxiety and Depression and they are not compatible with those according to the Leaflets so I just don't know. Don't think I can face another trip to the Doctors, might ask the Chemist later though. He's excellent. It's been playing on my mind ever since I did it
