Comment:
Had to cut tabs in 1/4's to use. Had terrible side effects, chest pain, heart pounding by just walking, and a weird fluttering from time to time. I stopped taking it and now I feel 100% better. Was taking it before having a mild heart attack, stopped for 2 months then the Dr. put me back on, never attributed the side effects to the drug before, now I know better!
