What Are The Side Effects Of Taking Namenda XR Regularly?

HI, I m taking Namenda XR and have just finished ramping up to full dose of 28 mg. during the ramp up, I immediately had severe had stomach pain-- so my GP stopped my Mobic and had me do every other day of the Namenda XR. So it s been in my system to some degree for almost 8 weeks... But I am now taking it daily and feel dizzy, nauseated, and tired. Here s my question: would taking it every other day have any efficacy on the tiny white (as in dead, I think) blood vessels found on MRI? Also, since the XR is so flaming unaffordable I will be taking the not XR lower dosage pills, twice a day. Thoughts?

Hi,

White blood cell cannot be detected in MRI. Any medicine (Allopathic), if taken for a long time, may have some effects on blood cells but that may not be dangerous and not even permanent. You need to take the medicine in full suggested dose and should never reduce the dose unless suggested by the physician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
