MYSOLINE (Primidone) POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
Effective medicine may cause “side effects” in some people. New symptoms may be caused by the medicine, the original disorder, or a new illness that may develop. Most people experience few or no side effects, and those that do happen tend to disappear in time after you stop using the medicine or when your body adjusts to it.
Some patients have reported that Mysoline seemed to cause “hangover” symptoms, pain such as headache, or even a strange feeling of excitement. Other symptoms include drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, an unsteady gait, double vision and jumpy eyes. Less common symptoms are skin rash and changes in your mood. There are also some changes that may occur in your blood which do not produce symptoms early. This is why blood counts are necessary when you take this or most other drugs for a long time.
If you should develop any of these symptoms to an uncomfortable degree or think that the medicine is bothering you in some other way, stop taking it temporarily and notify your doctor. He may decide to change your dosage schedule or discontinue the medicine.
