Not as effective: It could be a change in manufacturer or the same dose if not doing the job. I would talk to your prescriber about seeing if a new approach is needed. In addition, consider your sleep as without enough of it everything else can fall out of place!

Headache: Is this a new type of event? If you have just filled a new prescription, you may be experiencing a reaction to a generic made by a new manufacturer for you. Speak to your prescriber for a new prescription and ask your pharmacy for a different generic.
