Lozol Side Effects

Irritated or runny nose, headache, and back pain are some of the most common side effects reported with Lozol. Side effects of the drug are generally minor and, in most cases, either don't require treatment or can be treated easily. However, certain Lozol side effects are potentially serious and should be reported to a healthcare provider, such as fainting spells, allergic reactions, or signs of dehydration.
