On Monday, he started with fever and aching all over, headaches,flu like symptons. Monday, he stopped taking it. Who in their right mind would put something on the market, that would make people have new like infections when they are already sick? How did this make it on the market?

I have a 7 day course and after the second day, I have a lot of dizziness. I am also taking a steriod with it. Can't really say if it is effective yet.
