In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as thrush, pain or a burning sensation when you pee, peeing more than normal, and mild skin rash or itchy skin. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.
