Hello, Steph! How are you?

Did you stop taking it abruptly, without tapering or switching to a different medication?

If so, that could create dangerous rebound effects, which could include severely elevated blood pressure and heart rate. It could put you in danger, as reported by the FDA.

As to muscle soreness, it may take a few weeks for things to return to normal. How long were you taking it and what was the dose?
