I used this medication for 6 months, the only side effects I noticed was:
If I stood up too fast or sat down too fast I would get dizzy.
I also found that my appetite decreased a bit
and I couldn’t stay awake as late as I could before taking it(before, I went to bed around 12:00am-1:00am, after the meds kicked in it was hard to stay awake after 10:00pm)
(note: I was also taking 3–4 other meds at the time which may have had an influence on the side effects) you may feel none at all,
