My PCP started me off 3 days ago with .5mg vs .25mg. Anyone else start off at that dose? Had 1 episode of diarrhea, now constipated. Have body aches and chills. Anyone else experience body aches or am I just getting sick?!
Higher dosage started off?

Diarrhea, constipation, and chills are common side effects but you should report it to your PCP especially since you're also having aches and pains.
My husband was on .25mg for about a month before he was raised to .5mg but your PCP may have reasons for starting you on the higher dose.
It's also possible that something else is going on but I think you need to call your doctor for professional advice.
