Thanks for the query. Encorate chrono if already being used for long time does not produce major side effects. Only problem is it can cause weight gain. it does not cause dry mouth. If liver problems occur it can cause nause, loss of appetite and jaundice. So don't worry continue on this medicine. If side effects occur stop this and change to other medicines. Bye
