Side Effects They have cleared up my bad hest infection very well. So they do work.
Comments But they made me very tired and last night I slept for 12 hours! I never sleep that long normally. Also my dreams have been incredibly vivid. Like movies playing in my head. Not unpleasant - they weren't nightmares, normal dream stuff but just very vivid, unlike I've experienced before.
