It's so interesting everyones very difficult responses to meds.
I tend to be doseage sensitive. I was on 10 mg. of Prozac - never more, for a year. Have tried a succession of SSRI's - never able to tolerate the smallest dose (cut in 1/2). However, the exception was Serezone - I went up to a "normal" doseage in the required amount of time - at the end of two weeks I was taking 200 mg/day. (I think even more perhaps 300 mg./day.) So it's interesting reading others responses. That this drug is very difficult to tolerate.
I had to comment. Again it truly affirms that we all have different responses / tolerances to meds.
(I came off Serezone as I have with almost all of the others - I just don't seem to be able to tolerate the SSRI's - get flat, (with Serezone I became irritable too).
