I've taken 3 of the 6 prescribed pills so far. The only side affects I've encountered is slight dizziness when standing too quickly, slight yellowing if the white part of my eyes, and neon yellow coloring of the urine on the first day. Published: September 22, 2007 ::

This drug didn't work very well for me. Perhaps there was another antibiotic which could have been more effective. Still have diarhea and have to have more tests. Published: November 02, 2007 ::

A severe allergic reaction started on day three of taking this medication. Itching, swelling of skin in red patches and hives. Had to contact Doctor and get on Benedryl and predisone, immediately. Published: October 24, 2008 ::

My movements are now normal & not diarrehea like. Used to be - after eating, I'd have to let it back out right away. At times, develop gas, then make the speed rush to let it out. I still get gas - but not running to handle bizness. I think I am going more often, but things are coming out normal! I was put on Nexium, after an endoscopy but it didn't help - at all! I am loving me some Alinia! yee haw! Published: March 27, 2009 ::
