If you have missed a dose, take it as soon as you remember it and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better.

Your doctor may advise regular monitoring of serum bicarbonate levels while you are taking this medicine. Some of the common side effects of this medicine include nausea, taste change, fatigue, diarrhea, weight loss, loss of appetite, and memory impairment. It may also cause vision problems like myopia or glaucoma, so it is important to get your eyesight checked before you start the treatment and regularly thereafter.
