Jess, I am sorry but I know next to nothing when it comes to meds...but I would suggest consulting with your regular doctor on this. Since this was prescribed by an E.R. doctor, who essentially knows nothing about you, and won't be monitoring you regularly, seeing a doctor consistently while on a medication would be wise.

So if you haven't already, see your G.P. If you don't have one, try to find one, and get your records all in one place so that you can have reliable, consistent care:)

Feel better and good luck,
