Hi, Erikiki!
It depends on when you started taking the medication and at what dosage. If it's been within the past 2 two 3 weeks or so it's a side effect. They usually resolve on their own but if you've been experiencing them for longer than that you'll have to talk to your doctor about it.
But these symptoms are very common and not abnormal.

I don’t think it’s supposed to make you feel like that, from when I took it a while back.
I wouldn’t like that feeling!
