Relax: Remember that side effects are potential side effects, and they don't happen in everyone; and that if you get an intolerable side effect, you can discontinue the medicine. Severe or deadly or irreversible side effects are extraordinarily rare. Your doctor has selected this medicine for you because it's beneficial and side effect potentials are deemed favorable for you.
