What Causes Headaches, Dizziness And Pressure In Eyes While On Zetia?

Started taking Zetia August first. Been having headaches, dizziness, pressure in my ears, tremors around my eyes. Seems like it is pulling my eye sockets, making it difficult to read and feeling nauseated. Back pain. Cannot take stations. I will be calling my doctor on Monday. Feel a lot of pressure around my maxillary sinuses.
