But if you feel the side effects persist, you should consult your doctor. Betnesol might cause an upset stomach, thus may be taken with meals to reduce these side effects. Small frequent meals and frequent mouth care might help reduce it. Limit intake of caffeine. Doctors may recommend increased dietary vitamins, minerals, or iron.
