I could not say if I ever had the urinary side effects because I have them all the time as part of my illness. I might suggest that you keep a tube of cortizone cream handy (over the counter) and some "Claritin , Hives relief or at least Benadryl as you might find next that you are itching a lot. Both the itching and the nausea/stomach problems are generally transient. As you do not have a lot to try I would try to get through either of these without stopping your trial. The antihistamines might help both effects. I don't know more here than what I have read. The cortizone cream helps me tremendously though and the pharmacist said the Claritin (for hives) would work better than the Benadryl I had used.

You are taking souch a small amount but yu are not opiate tolerant. Not fun to discuss but make sure you are "regular" as you are on this for several days. You need to keep track of that and stay on top of it always on opiates. As long as you take fiber or whatever you decide if you need it you will be fine but if you do have that side effect it is not transient but at a small dose might be avoided or easily reslolved.

Good luck ,keep us updated,
