The first single pill, I took around 7pm, felt absolutely nothing from the first pill. I took the 4 pills exactly 24 hours later, only side effects Iâ??ve had are cramping, diarrhea, a bit of nausea and my tongue feels weird from the pills. Cramping started within the first 15 minutes of the pills being in my cheeks. On a scale of 1-10 I would rate them a 6 or 7. Within an hour after taking t
