> cindy** you are not experiencing a s/e...you are experiencing the changes a new med can have on your body. 1 day is not enough time...you will notice headache/nausea and some others (as you would on any new med) i am hearing it lasts for about 1 wk...try not to change any other meds doses, wait 1 wk, and keep us posted
