Hi
I am taking pentasa and prednisolone. I have only been taking them four days so far. Each time I take the pentasa I get palpitations for around one to one and a half hours. I am pretty sure it is not the prednisolone as I only take this in the morning and don't get the same effect if I just take this on it's own.
Has anyone else had this ? Did it settle down on it's own or did you have to change med.
I also have dry lips, a bit of a sore throat, legs like lead, including my left one which seems to be swelling up behind the knee even if I sit all day with it up, and feel generally a bit fluey. Oh and really bad indegestion (cased by the pentasa).
I really want pantasa to work - do you think it is worth persevering with ? or will all these side effects just carry on or get worse. I appreciate most of you are not doctors but would appreciate any info you can give from your experiences.
Thank you.
