With all meds, it's very important to go by what your doctor has prescribed as to how much and when. We can certainly offer support, suggestions to speak to your doctor about, but we cannot prescribe or "tell" someone how to take their meds.
Side affects may go away in time, or they may not. Everyone is different and meds react differently to each individual. I do hope you can get things straightened around quickly.
Wishing you well!
