Yes, but not so much as most people would notice. Pupil dilation (where the pupils--the dark portion at the center of the eyes-- get bigger) occurs naturally in low light, so that more light can reach the retina at the back of the eye. Alcohol artificially dilates the pupils consistent with the amount of alcohol in the person's bloodstream. Other recreational drugs, such as marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine and LSD cause more profound dilation, so much that pupil dilation is a valuable diagnostic indicator of intoxication with these drugs.
No, historically it's the exact opposite, it causes dilation of the pupils, particularly in larger than therapeutic doses. If you're noticing constricted pupils despite being on this medication, I would recommend notifying your doctor immediately as there may be another cause.
Are you talking about the pupils look straight in the am and then look like a circle in the afternoon? This could possibly be do to constriction and dilation of the pupils with adjustments to how light it is out....
Listing them all would be time-consuming so lets put it this way. Drugs can cause a pupil to change in two ways by dilation making the pupil larger or constricting the pupils. Only two drugs constrict the pupils those being opiates and alcohol. So anything but, these can cause the pupils to dilate.
Flexing is one such transformation.
