I will echo others who have answered….when I first started Tymlos (I always took full dose), the side effects I experienced (palpitations and dizziness) subsided after a few weeks. I did do the injection right before bed, so that may have helped. I also started drinking a bit of zero sugar Gatorade shortly before injecting, in hopes that the potassium and sodium would lessen the side effects. Of course, if you are super dizzy you don’t want to drink so much that you have to make bathroom trips….(I wasn’t THAT dizzy, and have to make bathroom trips anyway so it worked for me).

Hope things get better for you quickly!

@babbsjoy Thanks for your message. I did do the shot at bedtime last night, and I fell asleep just as the palpitations were starting, but before the headache. Up to the bathroom later without much going on. Small headache this morning. Hope this will always be the case...such a relief! Two years is a long time, so I hope the drug and I can get along.
