You should contact the doctor who prescribed the medicine and review the side effects you are experiencing to see if they are severe enough to stop the medicine or if the side effects can be treated, if there is an alternate medicine you could use instead, etc. The doctor who knows you best and knows your entire clinical situation can review this with you and decide on what should be done next.
