I was just wondering if it is possible to experience side effects from a medication even having been taking it for 2 and half years.

I pasted this from the www.rxlist.com website. If any of these are your symptoms its possible and also any symptoms could be the result of an interaction between another Rx or overthecounter med you are taking possibly:
Abdominal or stomach cramps or pain; bloody diarrhea; fever; headache; skin rash and itching
Anxiety; back or stomach pain; blue or pale skin; chest pain, possibly moving to the left arm, neck, or shoulder; chills; fast heartbeat; nausea or vomiting; shortness of breath; swelling of the stomach; unusual tiredness or weakness; yellow eyes or skin, diarrhea; dizziness; headache; runny or stuffy nose or sneezing
Acne; back or joint pain; gas or flatulence; indigestion; loss of appetite; loss of hair
Symptoms of overdose: Confusion; diarrhea (severe or continuing); dizziness or lightheadedness; drowsiness (severe); fast or deep breathing; headache (severe or continuing); hearing loss or ringing or buzzing in ears (continuing); nausea or vomiting (continuing)
