Brief Answer:
What is the name of the medications you took?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

It is possible that it is a side effect of the drug you took. Anticholinergics and antispasmodics( drugs frequently used for muscle spasms) can cause similar side effects. To be sure that this is a possible cause of your symptoms, I will like that you provide the name of the drug you too. This way, I can review the specific information relating to this and get back to you with more specific response. For now, try to swallow as much as possible so as to avoid losing much fluids and electrolytes until we figure out the exact cause and address.

I hope to hear back from you on this. I will make conclusive statements as soon as I review the drug you took for the cold.
