Make sure your doctor puts you on it very slowly, this minimizes the risk of seizures, which is small but real.
I can't take it because it causes horrible migraines, which is a known possibility.
It is supposed to not cause weight gain or sexual problems, which would be a plus for women with PCOS, that's part of why I originally tried it.
