  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Skin rash
  • Itching
  • Injection site reactions (if administered intramuscularly)

Serious but rare side effects may include severe allergic reactions, pseudomembranous colitis (inflammation of the colon), and liver problems.

Precautions

  • Novelink should be used with caution in individuals with a history of gastrointestinal diseases, liver disease, or kidney disease.
  • It is important to complete the full course of treatment prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished.
  • Inform your healthcare provider about any other medications or supplements you are taking, as they may interact with Novelink.

When Not to Use

Novelink should not be used in the following situations:
