Yes, it looks like this is a side effect of the medicine. See less common side effects at the bottom:



Check with your doctor as soon as possible if any of the following side effects occur:



More common



Cough or hoarseness; difficult or labored breathing; fever or chills; increased blood pressure; lower back or side pain; mental depression; shortness of breath; swelling of hands, ankles, feet, or lower legs; tightness in chest



Less common



Chest pain; difficult, burning, or painful urination; frequent urge to urinate; headache; sore throat; unexplained broken bones; wheezing



Other side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, check with your doctor if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome:



More common



Abdominal or stomach pain; anxiety; constipation; diarrhea; dizziness; general feeling of discomfort or illness; general feeling of tiredness or weakness; hot flashes; increased sweating; loss of appetite; nausea and vomiting; pain; trouble in sleeping

Other side effects not listed above may also occur in some patients. If you notice any other effects, check with your doctor.

Because the prescription medicine is strong so it's like a precaution that you might get those side effects from that drug or something. That's why you should never take drugs!
