Has anyone else noticed weight loss? I've lost about 10 pounds since starting this medication, and it's not intentional.
I generally agree that it helps with memory and general function. It was not easy to get the dosage and timing right. Then there are the side effects. I think everyone should know this stuff is tied to some serious side effects, but at least in my case it was worth it.
I've had some unusual side effects that I wasn't expecting, like muscle cramps and decreased appetite. It's been tough, but I hope it gets better over time. You do get used to it...
I have a family member who was prescribed this medication and experienced severe nausea and vomiting. It was so bad they had to stop taking it.
I am so concerned about the potentially dangerous side effects. The warning sounds a lot worse than the usual warnings. I wonder if anyone has experienced these.
Donepezil has been a lifesaver for my mom, it's improved her memory and awareness significantly. I wish the side effects weren't so harsh but the value it brings to her quality of life is worth it.
I found that the best way to manage the side effects was to take the medication right before bed. It helps with the dizziness and trouble sleeping. It also means I am less likely to have bouts of diarrhea during the day.
I've been on Donepezil for about a year now, and while it's helped with my memory, the diarrhea and upset stomach have been pretty rough. I found that taking it with food helps a bit, but it's still a struggle. Upvotes: 25
Donepezil has been a game-changer for my dad. He's more alert and involved in daily activities, and the side effects were pretty mild compared to the benefits. He is lucky to not have the rougher side effects.
