    Hi, what does the pain feel like? I got pain more so when I stopped taking it, it was like cramps and spasms with a burning feeling. Also tingling. I've read other people have similar experiences but it doesn't seem as common as other side effects people talk about.

    I have been getting lower leg pain mainly at night. It prevents me from sleeping and I believe it’s due to the medication. It does list it as one of the side effects. But still check with your doctor if it’s really bad. I know I will.

    No leg pain here but the weirdest other side effects, like itching: head and one particular área on my left arm, weird short lasting headaches, palpitaciones, trembling, inside tremor, the most insane dreams at night…to name a few
