it gave me energy,and i feel better,its just such a big ole pill Published: October 03, 2007 ::

I have taken Lopid for one and 1/2 years now and it has worked very well for me. It lowered my triglycerides from 1079 to 170 (still a little high) and also lowered my overall cholesterol level from 242 to 180. The only thing about thisdrug is remembering to ltlake it 30 minutes before you eat!!! Am I getting old? Published: January 27, 2008 ::

Twice a day for life!! Take it with a spoon of yoghurt or applesauce, especially kids. Sometimes I forget to take. I am wondering if it affects memory. Maybe it's age? It be difficult to know. My lipids were over 850 before I started. Now they are near normal. Published: January 22, 2008 ::

I been taking Lopid for almost 3 yeears and know I have joint problems, I can hardly walk now , Andit's hard for me to work. Published: March 15, 2008 ::

I used this medicine for 11 days and had to stop due to side effects. EXTREME irritability, fatigue and general aches were so bad that I would rather keep my high triglycerides than take this medicine. Most people can probably tolerate this drug but I could not. I eventually reduced my triglycerides through altering my diet. Reducing refined carbohydrates and adding oat bran, fresh grapefruits and oranges and vegetable salads brought my numbers into the normal range down from the 400s. Published: June 10, 2008 ::

my triglyceride count was above 635 when my doctor found them in 1982. lopid helped my brother,his was over 1,000. my count is about 225 now. Published: August 22, 2008 ::

I have only been on Lopid for 1 month but so far I have more energy and emotionally I feel great, better than antidepressants. No blood work as yet. Difficult to get the evening dosage in as I eat other than home alot. Published: July 16, 2008 ::

This medication helped but it killed my sex drive, extreme fatigue, increased bruising, also hard time remembering things. Published: December 03, 2008 ::

Muscle pain is severe Published: December 01, 2008 ::

I have been taking this medication for 1 month and I have had serious fatigue, memory loss, joint and muscle pain. Complete loss of time and conversation. This medication has not worked for me at all. I have been instructed to stop medication ASAP. Published: July 13, 2008 ::

I have tried over the past 8 years a series of medications that have not reduced my numbers and have elevated my liver count (Lipitor, Zorcor, Crestor). I have been on this medication for almost a year and it has worked wonders for me. I also exercise daily and have a well balanced diet. I have even lost 15 pounds. I feel like a new person. It works for me! Published: March 21, 2009 ::

Side effects can be bothersome because I am not sure if something is wrong or if it's just a side effect. Like the bloating,stomach upset, headache, insomnia,and weakness. (not all the time but on and off). I'd prefer not to take it at all but am terrified of suffering a stroke or worse. Published: April 03, 2009 ::
