Diarrhea is possible; monitor your bowel movements and talk to your doctor if it becomes severe or prolonged. Abdominal pain may also occur; describe the pain’s location, severity, and duration to your healthcare provider.
Some people report feeling tired or weak. Adequate rest is important, but persistent fatigue warrants a medical consultation. Skin rashes are uncommon but possible; if you notice a rash, stop taking the medication and seek medical advice immediately.
