Pharmacist Tips

  • Cardiovascular reactions may occur spontaneously but be aware of symptoms such as chest pain/tightness, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, and slurred speech. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.
  • This medication has the potential to interact with many medications. Alert your doctor when you start taking new prescription and non-prescription medications so they can evaluate if this medicaiton is still appropriate for you.
