Common side effects may include:
Serious side effects may occur; contact your healthcare provider if you experience symptoms such as jaundice, abdominal pain, or unusual tiredness.
HEPSERA may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
