In reply to SAMe side effect?, posted by dave40252 on April 16, 2002, at 14:41:11
> 3 days ago i decided to undertake a trial of sam-e. Ever since i have been having horrendous gas/diarhea. Anuy one ever have this, and if so dod it go away, or could it be coincidence?
Dave,
SAM-e loosens my stool somewhat, but it has not caused diarhea nor gas. For me, taking 200 mg/day of SAM-e is comparable to about 1/2 cup of prunes per day in this regard. Further, this side effect has remained constant during the five plus months that I have taken SAM-e. In other words, it did not go away.
How much SAM-e are you taking? Other than the gas and diarhea, what do you think of the way SAM-e makes you feel? What motivated you to try it?
