If side effects hit
All medications can cause side effects, and we believe in being open about them from the start so you know exactly what to expect. The most common side effects are gut-related, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation. Side effects are reported by approximately 12–18% of patients3,4 and are usually temporary. If they persist, your clinician can adjust your treatment. For a complete list, see the Summary of Product Characteristics at medicines.org.uk.
