Not everyone gets side effects. You might not get them!

I really can’t say I had any real side effects, the Orange wee ( of course) but I only had a very mild headache and very mild nauseous feeling but nothing compared to other medication I had to take for Rheumatoid Arthritis so it was very mild! Positive thoughts and forward thinking and before you know it the 3 months is over!

There are a few food / drink interactions ( the information sheet will list) but I recall red wine and “blue” cheeses.... I had a few glasses of white wine whilst on it.... if it lets u enjoy a night out then go for it 👍🏻
