more side effects of Stablon I forgot to list

Obviously these side effects won't occur in the majority of users of Stablon. I forgot to mention that I think it caused some orthostatic hypotension because when I exercised I felt faint when I stopped walking. This happened on more than one occasion whereas it never happened prior to taking Stablon.

It also caused my lower right leg to swell up, just above the ankles if I sat at my computer for more than 2 hours without moving. Elevating my leg for 15 minutes or lying flat on the bed or couch would solve that though.

Now that I don't take Stablon I can sit at my computer for hours and my right leg doesn't swell up.

I don't know if that was serious or not, but dopamine agonists can cause edema such as that. Stablon is not a dopamine agonist, but it definitely gives dopamine a mild boost (or more).


alprazolam (Xanax) 1mg QID, diazepam 5-10mg PRN
