Reviews

"Good medicine, almost harmless. Treat them now the daughter with DCCP, it is much easier to move and does not hurt almost, we are very happy. Yes, the price is not cheap, but it's worth it. Maybe someday will come up with the same effective nearly free medicines, or now have analogues, but we are still better touch base, what will changetherapy."

"The doctor prescribed me Mydocalm after a botched operation on his hands, now elbow bone, and almost as e moves. But while the pills are working, you can more or less move. Let him not ten rubles in the store is, but it can be used to heal and feel better."

"The doctor prescribed this Mydocalm, after literally the first day of use I got sick – on the skin appeared red spots, it was hard to breathe, I was taken away in an ambulance. Now, and I don't drink, and others do not recommend, because this had never been a single drug. After the doctors found out that I have an Allergy to lidocaine, but still, do not person to warn that he might die?"

"Despite the fact that advertising on the streets and on TV doctors and patients the drug mydocalm very good. After a couple of days of routine inspection I really recommend it, but I almost do not feel the changes even if the arm moves freely, I'm not much of a difference to notice. Feel like pills from chalk to eat, and nothing inside. Yes, they are good because health is not hurt, but why do they need if this does not help? Three hundred rubles to just give something you do not want"
