Hello, Carol! How are you?

While you may start to see some improvement within a week, or two, it will take about 4 to 5 weeks for this medication to reach its full level of efficacy in your body, according to the NIH.

The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
