About Vistaric-80 Tablet 30's

The common side effects of Vistaric-80 Tablet 30's include nausea, rash, dizziness, diarrhoea, pain, and localised swelling due to fluid retention in tissues (oedema). Most of these side effects of Vistaric-80 Tablet 30's do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist, contact your doctor.
