Yes, it has been known to cause all the symptoms you've described, according to detailed FDA reports. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, and constipation. They also warn that it carries the risk of being habit forming.

How long have you been taking it? Most side effects tend to improve with time, as your body gets used to the medication.

You other medications can also cause fatigue and increased sweating, under FDA reports.
