    I took Lotronex the 1st time it was out and it was my miracle drug. It was devastating when taken of the market. I couldn't be happier that it's back and I'm on it again....it's a quality of life drug

    After years of uncontrolled diarrhea, my doctor prescribed this for me. It works great but each year the cost increased. I went to the drug manufacturer's web site and found a discount program offered. I only pay a fraction of the price now!

    After 20 years of pain and diarrhea, Lotronex gave me relief from both. I was educated on the product for over a year and for the first time could go days and then weeks without an episode. There are risks but a woman who takes care of her health can recognize the problem and stop the drug before any problems become dangerous.
