Has anyone taken this drug as a hormone blocker and what side effects have you experienced. I’ve read the literature and it’s scary.

    My partner took Megace in the early years of his HIV infection.
    It helped improve his appetite with some weight gain which was needed.

    Had blood clots in lungs. Drs. could find no other reason than Magace.
