When using this medication, you might experience mild swelling, redness, or pain where the injection is given. These common side effects are typically temporary but should be discussed with your healthcare provider if they persist or worsen. Although many people using this medication do not encounter serious side effects, it's important to be aware of potential severe reactions. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience easy bruising or bleeding, unusual tiredness, signs of gallbladder issues such as stomach pain or nausea, symptoms indicating kidney problems like changes in urine output, or yellowing of the eyes or skin. Additionally, watch for uncontrollable movements, confusion, or seizures.

This medication may rarely lead to a serious intestinal condition caused by C. difficile bacteria, which can happen during or after treatment. If you develop persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, or blood in your stool, seek medical attention promptly and avoid using anti-diarrhea or opioid products, as they may worsen the condition. Long-term or repeated use of this medication may cause oral thrush or a yeast infection. Look out for white patches in your mouth or changes in vaginal discharge, and notify your doctor if these occur.

If the medication is mixed with a numbing agent like lidocaine for muscle injection, it may very rarely cause methemoglobinemia, a serious blood condition.

Although a severe allergic reaction to this drug is rare, urgent medical attention is required if you experience symptoms such as rash, swelling of the face or throat, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing. If you notice any other unusual effects, consult your healthcare provider.
