10 days after starting the treatment due to slight cardiac insufficiency, swelling of the foreskin with phimosis, fungal infestation, now chronic despite antifungal medication and all hygiene measures. Very few cardiologists are aware of this side effect. I was not informed about it either.
From the first day on side effects such as urinary urgency, massive drowsiness, will stop the drug and the drug should be taken off the market from my point of view because the side effects are higher than the benefits.
On the first day I had a mental breakdown before falling asleep. I had to cry for hours, which usually never happens. On the second day I had a headache and a strong feeling of restlessness. Difficulty concentrating.
The medication has helped to lower my blood sugar level into the green zone. However, this came at the cost of nasty side effects such as stomach cramps, indigestion and diarrhoea, which was not the case before. After stopping the medication, these side effects disappeared after just a few days.
