Amidrine Oral Side Effects

Dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.

Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur:

If you do not have liver problems, do not take more than 4 grams (4000 milligrams) of acetaminophen per day. If you take more than the maximum daily amount, it may cause serious (possibly fatal) liver disease. Tell your doctor immediately if you have any of the following symptoms of liver damage:

  • severe nausea/vomiting
  • yellowing eyes/skin
  • dark urine
  • stomach pain
  • extreme tiredness


If you have liver problems, consult your doctor or pharmacist for a safe dosage of this medication.
