Sounds like your have a side effect and need to call your doctor. From MedlinePlus Drug Info

Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur:

With high doses

* Diarrhea; dizziness or faintness; dryness of skin; fever; frequent urination; itching of skin ; joint pain; muscle aching or cramping; nausea or vomiting; side, lower back, or stomach pain; swelling of feet or lower legs; unusual thirst; unusual tiredness or weakness; unusually fast, slow, or irregular heartbeat

Good Luck and don't let this go on too long!
