Hello,
It is better you don't discontinue the medication. If you have pain then get it done ultrasound and liver function tests. If both are normal then you have to continue medication. If any abnormality detected means you may consult your doctor he may write alternate medication.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
