Ask MD: Ask MD who prescribed it. Often you'll have early side effects that dissipate over time. Best to work with prescribing MD on these questions.

Possible interpretat: It is possible the symptoms you are feeling are side effects. It may be helpful if you use a lower dose. Is this possible? If this is a new medicine for you, it may be there is an alternative. Contact the medical provider that prescribed this for you to discuss your options.
