Photos How To Use To prevent upset stomach, take with food or milk. Pain medications work best in preventing pain before it occurs. Once the pain becomes intense, the medication is not as effective in relieving it. Use this medication exactly as directed by your doctor. Do not increase your dose, use it more frequently or use it for a longer period of time than prescribed because this drug can be habit-forming. Also, if used for an extended period of time, do not suddenly stop using this drug without your doctor's approval. Over time, this drug may not work as well. Consult your doctor if this medication is not relieving the pain sufficiently. If your headache gets worse or if you should get a new headache within one day of starting this medication, call your doctor. Side Effects May cause lightheadedness, dizziness, drowsiness, stomach upset, nausea, and sleeping disturbances the first few days as your body adjusts to the medication. If these symptoms persist or worsen, inform your doctor. Notify your doctor if you develop a rapid or irregular heartbeat, ringing in the ears, severe stomach pain, easy bruising or bleeding, black stools, yellowing eyes or dark urine. In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, itching, swelling, dizziness or breathing trouble. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Before you take it, tell your doctor of all over-the-counter and prescription drugs you may use, including: "blood thinners" (anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs such as warfarin, heparins, NSAIDs), steroids (for asthma or other inflammatory conditions), narcotic and non-narcotic pain medication; medication for seizures, heart rhythm disturbances, diabetes, gout and glaucoma; and drugs which make you drowsy, including sedatives, psychiatric medications and certain antihistamines (e.g., diphenhydramine).
