Side effects

[Lekly72]

I have just finished my 4 doses of 2.5mg with very little side effects maybe a little nit of nausea the day after jab. I started my 1st 5mg jab yesterday about 11.30am I have been sick diarrhea (like water) sorry for the graphic details and stomach pain not sure if this is normal or should be seeking medical advice

Hey, sorry you're experiencing these side effects on the 5mg, that sounds miserable! It is, however, quite normal - in most cases people tend to find the jump from 2.5 to 5 mg quite intense. Hopefully it will settle in a few days for you, and won't happen again with the next jab. Go get some Imodium for the diarrhea, and make sure you hydrate (water, electrolytes might be quite helpful too). Try to eat if you can, as you don't want to feel weak and faint from not eating. And if you feel you need to step it down and gradually build up to 5 (which a lot of people do by counting the clicks and administiring say 3.75 mg instead), maybe worth looking into that, or even coming back down to 2.5.
