Navane Oral Side Effects

Drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, blurred vision, tiredness, nausea, constipation, stuffy nose, increased thirstiness, and trouble sleeping may occur. Rarely, you may also be more sensitive to sunburn and less able to tolerate heat/strenuous exercise (see Precautions section). If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication for longer time periods may develop serious side effects, but with frequent visits to your doctor, this risk can be minimized.
