I started to take Verzenio 150 mg twice a day but I did not tolerate it well. I kept feeling like was wearing beer goggles, unfocused, almost like I had been drugged. Is this a side effect??? I just started the 100 mg and I am feeling the same way. Help!

Hello! I started on Verzenio 150mg twice a day beginning in Mar. 2021, and am currently still on the same dose. My issue is with one of the main known side effects which is diarrhea. I tried to take it without any Imodium at first, but realized that if I took the Imodium at the first loose stool, it helped me a lot. I only get diarrhea once in a while now and have acid reflux issues once in a while also.
I have not experienced the side effects that you mentioned though.

Not tired, no accidents, etc. I told her I am not going to take a drug that makes me feel worse or scared to leave my apt. So I have been on 50 mg. She was not thrilled but I was
