I've been prescribed Aplenzin 522mg tablets to help with my seasonal affective disorder. I've been wondering how common other side effects are. My doctor told me about the more serious side effects, but i want to know the normal side effects...like, can anyone share their experiences? I'm curious about how often people experience things like dizziness, headaches, or trouble sleeping. Are these things that go away after a while, or do they stick around? Also, I've heard that some people notice the tablet shell in their stool, should I be worried about that? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've read about some serious side effects, like Stevens-Johnson syndrome, high blood pressure, and changes in behavior. How common are these, and what should I do if I experience them? Do I need to plan for any regular checkups, like eye exams?
