It can be taken with or without meals, but it is recommended to take it at the same time every day, preferably before bedtime. Always use this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor, as it has a potential for habit formation. If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember.

Some commonly experienced side effects include tiredness, irritability, nausea, dizziness, and balance problems. Since it can cause sleepiness or affect your focus, avoid activities like driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you. Weight gain may also occur, so maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly is advisable. Report to your doctor immediately if you notice mood changes, worsening depression, or thoughts of self-harm.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor about any history of kidney or liver problems, depression, or suicidal tendencies. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should discuss potential risks with their doctor. Consuming alcohol while taking this medicine can increase side effects such as dizziness and drowsiness and may also raise the risk of seizures.
