Complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve; never skip doses. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recollection. Continue treatment as directed by your physician; abrupt cessation may be harmful. Potential side effects include trembling, difficulty speaking, incoordination, nausea, vomiting, skin breakouts, elevated white blood cell count, and cognitive difficulties.
