dizzy from prometrium?

I just found out yesterday that I'm pregnant and have started back on prometrium. I don't remember from when I've taken it before being so dizzy.  I'm on 100mg/oral 2 times a day. When I take it in the morning I'm getting ready for work and don't notice anything but when I take the 2nd dose in the afternoon I get super dizzy! Anyone had similar experiences and had success with anything?  I talked to a pharmacist today and he said two things - 1. I could try taking it with food and 2. he  hopes once my body adjusts to the changing hormones the dizziness should go away - maybe after a week or so...

I was the same exact way. The dizziness was so bad that I ended up taking all 400mg of mine right before bed. Worked great that way. No more daytime dizziness. :)
