I can't take teva, actavis or almus(which was actavis) but I'm fine with mercurypharma and wockhardt.

If you have no luck with this brand try wockhardt x

I just felt very unwell, almost as if I'd stopped taking the medication altogether. It took weeks for me to get back to where I was however it might have been coincidental as I've recently had the same thing happen again.

Good luck with the trial x
