Going to your doctor is your best bet, since it's probably a chemical side effect of your medication.
Nonetheless, if you're especially eager to experiment before going to get actual medical advice, try drinking the following tea (some ingredients require a visit to your local herbarist).
about 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger
about 2 tbsp fresh grated galanga root, or 2 generous pinches dried, crushed galanga
4 generous pinches powdered or crushed ginseng root
3-4 generous pinches powdered or crushed jimson's herb ("horny goat weed")
1 generous pinch powdered or crushed mandrake root
1 pinch dried lavender
6 dried rose buds
about 1 small stalk dried lemon grass, or 1/3 small stalk fresh
2 generous pinches of powdered coriander, or about 1/8-1/4 tsp whole seeds, well crushed
8 cardamom seeds, well cracked
1 twist fresh cracked black pepper
zest of 1/3-1/2 fresh lime
Steep all this well, for a long time, over a low flame, in about 24 ounces of water.
Try to drink this twice a day (warm or cooled, doesn't matter). It works better if you also eat at least 1/2 a mango per day, along with a little pineapple. Also, if you plan to drink alcohol, drink red wine, not distilled spirits-- hard liquor will interfere with the effectiveness of the tea. White wine will not interfere, but will not help. Red wine will help, if not drunk to excess.
