You should only take it as directed by your doctor, it can be repeated, if they approve of your doing so, but you should always be careful to check with them.

The FDA lists its typical side effect as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight gain, fluid retention and elevated blood pressure.

Are you on any other medications?
