Side Effects

Along with its needed effects, a medicine may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.

Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur:

• Bloating or swelling of face, arms, hands, lower legs, or feet
• Rapid weight gain
• Tingling of hands or feet
• Unusual weight gain or loss

• Chest pain
• Dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting

• Feeling of warmth or heat
• Flushing or redness of skin, especially on face and neck
• Headache
• Rash
• Sweating

• Chest tightness
• Shortness of breath
• Swelling of the arms, face, legs, lips, tongue, or throat

Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:

• Body aches or pain
