Side effects...: You may experience new side effects at any time of taking a medication even when you have been taking it for a prolonged period of time. If it is a medication like this one that may be associated with many systemic side effects it is very important that you get seen by the doctor who prescribed it and get labs done to make sure there are no serious issues associated with this medication.
