This medicine can be taken with or without meals, preferably before bedtime. It is important to take it at the same time every day to keep a consistent level of medication in your body. Follow the dosage and duration as prescribed by your doctor. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time for the next one. Do not stop the medication suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this may worsen the symptoms.

Some common side effects include nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, blurred vision, trouble sleeping, and erectile dysfunction.
