After week 4 starting on week 5, do I still take 4 pills a day for the 5th week onward?

Yes, unless your doctor instructs otherwise.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and insomnia.

Is there anything else I can help with? Are you have good luck with it?
