User Reviews for Atelvia oral

Took Atelvia and within 24 to 48 hours later I had diarrhea. I took the Atelvia twice and then stopped. I have had diarrhea for over two months now with no end in sight. I can control it with Imodium.

I will admit that I was a bit nervous after reading all of the negative comments. I just took my 5th dose of Atelvia and have not had any of the side-effects that I have been reading about. Wont be able to judge the effectiveness until my next bone density test.

I am expericening abnormal liver function test results after using this drug ALT & AST are now abnormally high

I took this medicine for the first time yesterday am, by 9:00pm I had an strange sensation of nausea and closed stomach (was in a restaurant) so was not able to eat. By midnight I had a horrible diarrhea, all liquid.After a horrible night I am looking in the web for answers. Everything in me aches specially my upper ribs are aching, cannot bend. Just horrible. Pls people do not take this, regardless. I am calling my doctor and all over. This is a nightmare and I am trying my best to register this for benefit of others. Read More Read Less

Been on atelvia for two years and never had side effects.Now I am experiencing tooth pain so my doctor took me off of it.and it did not increase my bone density!

Started this med on Sunday. Have been living in the bathroom for 2 days now! This drug should be banned! Will not take again.

I took my first pill Saturday, no issues. Sunday p.m. OMG, I feel like I have the flu, my joints hurt so bad I can hardly walk and my muscles are sore. NEVER taking this again

First dose went well, no problems, however with the 2nd and 3rd dose I have experienced some very uncomfortable abdomianl pains. I do not plan on taking another dose of this medication. Meeting with my Doctor next week to discuss.

Unbelievable pain in my bones, especially my hip, severe abdominal pain, nauseous, gassy, headache. I took it a week ago Saturday and ended up in urgent care on Monday. Was on pain pills for three days. Unfortunately, they thought I had a kidney stone or diverticulitis so I took another Atelvia this past Saturday - BIG MISTAKE! Deep bone pain, headache, pain in my hip, abdominal pain and now I'm scared to eat because of the pain I have experienced in the past week. Won't be taking anymore of this medication.Read More Read Less

I took one pill on Monday and immediately had diarreah. Tuesday & Wed, stomach cramp,spots before my eyes and severe cramps in my feet and toes. I will not take this med. again, it should be taken off the market.

It was suggested by the doctor that I start taking this medication because I had a bone density test taken and it came back showing early signs of osteoporosis. I ask if I could increase my intake of calcium and she told me I should try this product. Against my better judgement, I took this on Saturday and by Sunday midday, I started having discomfort in my stomach and it is now Monday and I have had the same pain throughout the day. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I am going to take a calcium supplement and start exercising. Read More Read Less

OMGosh! Took pill on a Monday and have been in so much pain. Sleeping most of the day. Severe abdomnal cramps, severe gas pain, diarrhea, weekness. This all started on Tuesday, and today is Wednesday with the same side effects. Thank the lord I do not have to work otherwise I would have to call in sick. Help!

The first time I tried Atelvia I decided to do it on a Saturday. Boy! What a mistake! Now for the last 4 weeks I have pretty much "lost" my weekends. In fact I don't start to feel better until about Thursday. I have to admit that I wanted to give it every chance...but at my Dr. appt. this week...I'll be asking for another option for treatment. And by reading all these comments, most of them are negative. Scary when a drug makes you feel worse than you felt before taking it. (I indeed had all of the listed symptoms, just amplified.)Read More Read Less

I have only taken my first tablet and I have severe stomach pain. I forgot about taking the pill and thought I may have the flu but I have no other symptoms then a burning and I do mean burning stomach. I don't know if I can try another one and put myself in this pain if it is the pill

I was prescribed to take this medicine from my doctor.Literally less than24 hours after taking it,I felt like complete crap!.I couldn't hold anything meal-like down either way .My joints hurt way more than even before taking the medicine.I was in bed and felt horrible.I have not taken this medicine and I sure as hell don't plan on taking it again.I took this to feel better not feel in purgatory.

I just took my 2nd week pill. I experienced worsening of my copd. I feel better 2 days later and will take the third dose. However, if my copd worsens again, I will discontinue taking this medication

I took this medication for 2 weeks and have never felt so bad chills,my body just ached,felt sick to my stomach,headaches. I paid with my prescription plan $275.00 for 12 tablets it was like flushing the money down the tube. This was like taking poison to my system. Pat

I took this Atelvia for 2 weeks and I have had chills,headaches,my whole body hurts,sick to the stomach,etc. I felt better before taking this medication. I stopped taking it after 2 weeks and I feel as if I just threw $275.00 in the trash of which I do not have.

Have been on this now for about 1 year. My last Dexa showed I am holding steady & have not lost MORE bone, which is a good result. Just dissapointed I am not reversing or building bone but maybe that will come? Very easy to take & no side effects. My doc wants me to try FORTEO but after reading the reviews here I am thinking I will wait & see how I do with ATELVIA. Forteo sounds scary.

About 18 hours after taking first pill I experienced severe muscle and joint pain from my neck to my hips. I spent 2 days in bed taking pain medicine. I also had tightness of the chest when I was in a flat or reclined position. Today is day 4 and I am finally starting to feel better. The symptoms were flu like at first and I would put the pain at an 8. I will never take this medicine again.
