What Will Be The Side Effect Of Tizanidine Taking For Muscle Spasms?

I have had my gall bladder removed. I have been having a lot of nausea w intermittent constipation and diarrhea with some pain in right colon transverse colon which radiates into lower right back. It all started when I began taking Tizanidine for muscle spasms. Could this be the cause? I stopped the Tizanidine 4 nights ago. I would like an opinion. I have gained about 10 lbs since I retired. I do have Ménière's disease.

you was using tizanidine, and feeling all this could be due to this. Of course it has the side effect of gastric irritation, it is to be withheld and medicine used for the symptoms.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe omeprazole, domperidone , and cinnerzine. Thank you.
