"Given 5-day trial from treating physician. Experienced a delayed reaction after taking final dose and broke out in full-body hives, literally from head to toes. Had to be treated then for pneumonia and the reaction with 3 follow-up visits."

"I took Factive for 7 days, and at the end of these days, I woke up with a rash from head to foot. That was horrible for me, I went to the emergency room and saw a dermatologist for this rash. She prescribed Prednol 40 mg for 3 days. I was sick because of pneumonia for 5 days and suffered from Factive side effects for 15 days! My face, my neck, my hands, all over my body... terrible experience for me! I do not suggest anybody use Factive under any circumstances! Thank you."

"I took Factive for 6 days. The label says that you can take it with or without food, but in my case, if I didn't eat a very large meal before taking it, I would feel sick to my stomach and spend most of the day vomiting. I was only able to successfully keep it down for one of the days, but when I did vomit, it brought up a lot of the sputum that was in my lungs. At the end of the day, the medication seems to be working for me, but it definitely made me feel horrible that entire time I took it. Be sure to ask your doctor for a coupon for this stuff. It costs over $100, but my doctor gave me a copay-free coupon and I wound up paying nothing for this medication."
