    I've been using this about 1 week now and it's great. My doctor said I could use it daily. No side effects and I'm very sentsitive to some other meds and have some food allergies.

The OTC can be very costly. I am being patient to use this treatment and think in time it will help. I am on so many drying meds that this is the only thing close to working without pain.

    I developed hives almost instantly after taking a 1/2 dose of this medication. I will not take it again.
