as long as you stay within the normal dosage range their tend not to be many long term effects, the main thing that happens is drug dependence and the possibility of addiction, dependence is when you have to slowly stop the medication to prevent withdraw symptoms but it does NOT have the psychological dependence that is seen in addiction

additionally it is very important to make sure you are following your doctors instructions on how to take the medication, because overdosing can easily harm your liver, and slow or stop your breathing rate
