Comment:
my gastro doctor perscribed this for stomach pain. it worked like a charm on the pain, but made me jittery and my entire body shakes uncontrollably while on it, and it caused me to sweat a lot. it also made me have panic attacks. i'd rather have the pain than deal with the shaking and panic attacks.
