... be careful about just stopping your medication. Some medications need to be stopped gradually or the consequences are worse than before taking the medication. Do not take any advice on medications and prescriptions from Yahoo! Please CALL YOUR DOCTOR!

If your having such side effects you should stop taking it immediately. If you need pain medication to replace it go to the emergency room and the tell them the side effects you are having and let them give you something else but don't keep taking the acupan. Go to the ER if you can't see your doctor tomorrow.

I would not do anything without consulting a doctor, but to control the side effects, I would stop taking whatever medication is causing them until you are able to talk to your doctor about what to do.

Get yourself to the emergency rooom! You don't need to be screwing around with your health. have you told your parents about this? They should be the first ones you talk to other than the doctor. Sometimes medicines can interact with others and a pharmacist may not know. They don't have the training and education that a physician does. PLEASE GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!

It amazes me how people come to yahoo for medical advice. Have you thought about calling your doctor or even the pharmacist?
