No. I don't know how much you are taking, but you may want to reduce the dosage.

If your side effects don't subside within 2 weeks, you may want to try taking it every other day. Some people have done that and the side effects go away and it still works to help your hair.

Never heard of that before. Consult your local doctor, might be something unrelated.
