Hello,

Yes, headache can be a side effect of Galvus med.

I suggest measuring regularly the glycemic level before and after eating breakfast to maintain it under control.

I also suggest using a painkiller such as Acetaminophen for the headache.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
