Default Prometrium

Been taking prometrium100mg for 3 months now (1 a day for 21 days then off for 7) i have been reading possible side effects including nausea, dizziness, bloating, etc.....i have felt fine in the past taking this.....however since i started this new batch i have been experiencing all of these side effects. Twice this week, about 20 minutes after i take it i've been feeling dizzy/shaky and almost nauseaous. At first I thought I was experiencing low blood sugar or something but then after I thought about it - it has been happening always at about 15-20 minutes after I take the pill. Is it possible that the side effects are just catching up to me now? Can it take 3 months to experience side effects? Btw...I am not pregnant.

Side effects usually show themselves pretty early, but not always. Sometimes they show up after months or even longer. Did your dose change? Is it a generic equiv with maybe a different manufacturer this time? If yes to either, maybe that's the culprit.
Hope that helps! Sorry you feel bad!
