It is very common to experience dry lips, over 90% of patients report this. Such side effects are dose related so you may not get them if you are taking a particularly low dose such as 10-20mg per day. Low doses are indicated if the patient has liver or kidney problems. The standard dose is 0.5 to 1mg per day X kg of bodyweight. So if, for example, you weigh 60kg your recommended dose will be between 30 and 60mg per day.
