"I think this drug is dangerous and shouldn't be prescribed. I believe this ended the life of the father of a friend of mine. Common side effects include respiratory problems? Taking this drug can temporarily lower the White blood cell count? I'm sure this comment will be deleted also which says it all really. Please take caution if you or somebody you know are taking this drug"

"We have noticed that when our mom decided to stop taking this medicine she became weak and tired. She has only been taking the it for 3 weeks. Was told she has Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in March 2014. Wish we didn't have to jump over so many walls to get answers. Got to love Medicare!"

"My husband has been taking this drug since August '2021 and has continued taking it without missing any doses. We set the time (7:00 a.m.& 19:00 p.m) to take reluzole in time without missing. After taking this drug it seems to delay the decrease of deterioration. But I don't what will happen in future. -10.08.2022"
