diltiazem
I was on Diltiazem 120mg for 2 weeks to see how it worked for heart paliptations and high pulse.

I knew within days it was doing nothing for me, my pulse was high and although I did not feel individual heart beats I felt a constant buzz.

When I stopped the pills it was 2 days later when this buzz sensation worsened and I felt like my entire body was trembling. I went back to taking Atenolol which lowered my pulse. I was so scared I went to a walk in clinic, they listened to my heart and said nothing was wrong and told me to continue the Atenolol. A day later my heart felt normal again.

It's now 5 days later and I'm experiencing the same horrible accelerated/buzzing heart. I'm going insane.

Is this a normal reaction? Is my body just going through withdrawl or what? Anyone had similar experiences?

Risperdal/Risperidone journal_01
Slept well last night, solid REM dreams, but awoke this morning with terrible unease about meeting deadlines. Work yesterday was more productive than usual but suffered from numerous avoidable distractions. Yesterday's extra calm mood helped concentration but damaged motivation to drill deep into work. Predicting a resurgence of anxiety this morning will inspire a higher workload today, none the less, the Risperdal/Risperidone (0.5mg) has definitely stabilized mood. The girl says "less hostile and irritable already." Most notably, am able to complete mundane, unpleasant, repetitive tasks without severe distress. BP/P has definitely stabilized at (or even below) target levels despite high dose of Provigil (200mg) and no Atenolol - this is a first. Looking forward to removing Atenolol from Rx list.

mood: very concerned
mind: trying to get organized
music: P h i l o s o m a t i k a
food: banana-nut waffles, water

swollen ankles
I'm taking Amlodipine for a while. When I first started to thake this drug I had getting swollen ankless but since my doc put me on HCTZ, I no longer have this symptoms. I used to take atenolol but since I need to receive allergy shots, I could no longer take beta blockers so had to switch to a different drug for boold presure. No other problems about this drug. Be sure to talk with your doctor about it!

Production of Trazadone
See answer above. That is how I arrived at this board. But I don't get it. This might not be the manufacturer? Perhaps we need to research Pharmaceutical World or trazodone + .com.
Trazodone is the generic name for desyrel.
I think the drug is so old that whoever manufactured desyrel doesn't anymore as I did enter desyrel + .com and came up with nothing using MSN search. Hmm......

But do check out this cool link which I found here (!) too regarding all generic drugs:
