User Reviews for Trilipix oral

Took this 1 day had severe calf spasms and spasms front of leg... couldn't walk. Tried taking it at various times, resulted in muscle aches and swollen eyes. Too scary for me.

Have been on it for over a month and have had no ill effects at all. Just had blood work done earlier this week and will see my Dr. in two days to see the results. My trig was so high in the first test that they couldn't even read my LDL. Have also increased exercise and am eating much better. Will let you know how it is working out.

My Dr Put me on this for Cholesterol I didn't think much of it "Getting older Ya Know" I Have been on this med for less then 1 full week I have vomited on 3 different days more then one occasion, I have that dry(Sunburn feeling) skin feeling on my arms. I actually went and bought a pregnancy test "To double check" I paid a ridicules co pay and I'm vomiting, itchy, short tempered, headaches, achy, uggg Definitely changing to something else Good Luck !!

I was part of drug study taking TriLipix along with Lipitor which produced wonderful results(lowering cholesterol level to 140). I have been waiting for TriLipix to come on the market. I am now back on both medications and feel great with no side effects

I have been taking this drug for about 6 months. My levels have went down from 275 to 185. I do have severe muscle aches, pain and fatigue. This pain and weakness is mainly in my legs. Since I stand all day at my job it gets pretty bad.

ihave tried every thing on the market,so far all treatments failed . Iam on liptor now 3 months and started trilipix 135mg. my cholesterol is blown out of preportion dangerously high so wish me success

First, Thanks for all the reviews on this drug from other users. yes, I have started taking this drug for my Colestrol. I could not take any of the statin drugs because of the joint and muscle pain. Cant take Niaspan because I have sinsitive skin. I'will let you know soon on this one.

I can't wait to get off this stuff! I've been losing weight deliberately since January, but as soon as I started this medication, the weight loss stopped. My hair looks and feels like straw, and my fingernails are brittle and breaking.

I do not know of any effects on me, however, I also take Niaspan (which I hate because of the flushing and burning skin sensation) and maybe any effects I have from this Trilipix I am attributing to the Niaspan

I have been taking Trilipix for approximating 3 months. After the first 6 weeks I took a blood test showing my HDL increased 7 points. Triglycerides decreased 73 points and total Cholesterol decreased 17 points. The only side effect I have experienced is occassion lightheadedness which goes away quickly.

I have only been taking this drug for three weeks so I have not had my blood checked yet to test its effectivness. However, every morning I wake up a feel nauseous and feel like I am going to throw up. Not a great way to start the day.

After being on this medication for 6 weeks my total cholesterol went down 90 points. Hasn't been this low in years. Only problem I have been experiencing is severe acid reflux. Has anyone else experienced this since my doctor told me that this is not a side effect.

I was unaware that I had any problem with cholesterol or triglycerides, but after a full blood panel was done on me that is what the Dr. found. I actually went to have the blood work done to see if my testosterone level was down because I was having severe mood swings, irritability and anger issues. I took the Trilipix for 6 weeks with no difficulties or side effects; another blood draw was taken and the Dr. said my high levels had come down. I will get another blood draw in 1 month to check my levels again. The positives about taking this medication is that my levels are coming down, but even better is that my mood swings, frustration and irritability have all subsided. My spouse and friends say that I am back to my old self again and it happened in just two weeks of being on the medication. I did a complete 180! I am not on any other medications.Read More Read Less

Prior to using the drug I had finger and toe numbness. This had started about 2 years ago. Been on it for 3 weeks no side effects that I can tell yet. After the first few doses my fingers and toe numbness has subsided. Don't know why, but thats good. Will not get a blood checkup for another 2 months so not sure how it works.

AFTER ONLY 1 MONTH OF EING ON MEDICATION MY CHOLESTEROL WENT DOWN 50 POINTS

I have taken this drug for about five weeks.I feel drained of energy but no other side effect at this time. Will see the dr in two weeks. Will report back.

Another consumer wrote the following which if I had to describe what I feel like after just one week on this drug..would be exactly the same...word for word...terrible drug::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: After one week I developed severe stomach cramps and nausea, it feels like I was punched in the stomach and want to throw up.

i was on this medication for about two weeks i had leg pain which continued to get worse. By the end of the 2 weeks my muscle pain extended down my legs to my feet.it was difficult to get through my work day. I was told to stop this med and have labs repeated. I had an initial trigliceride count of over 600 which i was very suprised i am not overweight,not diabetic, dont have high bp and have no family history of this i
