While using this medication, some individuals might experience mild side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, an upset stomach, abdominal pain, changes in taste, headache, or dizziness. These effects are generally not serious but should be reported to your healthcare provider if they persist or worsen. Additionally, a darkened tongue may occur, which is harmless and resolves after stopping the medication.

More serious side effects, though uncommon, require immediate medical attention. These include numbness or tingling in the arms or legs, discolored teeth, mental or mood changes like confusion or depression, difficulty swallowing, heartburn, rapid heartbeat, ringing in the ears, painful urination, a stiff neck, signs of kidney issues (like changes in urine output), easy bruising or bleeding, unusual fatigue, seizures, chest pain, and symptoms of liver disease (such as jaundice or dark urine).

Dark stools are a common effect but can be mistaken for blood, which could indicate a serious problem. Contact your healthcare provider if you notice this. Rarely, this medication may cause increased pressure in the brain, more common in overweight women of childbearing age. Symptoms include persistent headache, nausea, vomiting, and vision changes. Seek medical assistance immediately if these occur.

This drug may also rarely lead to a severe intestinal condition due to C. difficile bacteria, with symptoms like ongoing diarrhea, stomach pain, or blood in stools. Avoid using anti-diarrhea products if these symptoms appear and contact your healthcare provider. Occasionally, oral thrush or a yeast infection might develop, indicated by white mouth patches or changes in vaginal discharge.

A serious allergic reaction to this medication is rare but requires urgent medical help if symptoms such as fever, swollen lymph nodes, rash, itching, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing occur. Always discuss any other unusual effects with your healthcare provider.
