muscle pain can occur in some persons

Detailed Answer:
HI,thanks for using healthcare magic

It is not known to cause this side effect though muscle pain can occur, it is possible that this muscle pain may show itself as burning in some persons

Most common side effects are sedation, altered memory, altered coordination, dizziness, low blood pressure , confusion, constipation

If you are having significant problems with the medication , you should let your doctor know so he or she can change it for you to one that you can tolerate

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
