"i was on this medication at 0.5mg twice a day. was only on it for a month and a half i gained 20 pounds i was hungry all the time and it raised my prolactin levels so high i started to lactate. this drug made me feel like a zombie i couldn&#039;t concentrate or had any desire for anything in like. i stopped taking this drug for only five days now and already i am starting to loose weight and feel some what normal again. trying to try other methods to control my disorder without having to rely on drugs"
