jane, I have only been on 150 mg, taken in the early evening, to augment effexor xr, and to counteract the sleep problems of the effexor. With this latest bout of depression, my doc told me I can up the serzone up to 250 if I want to, and it can all be taken in the evening. It makes me drowsy, which is a good thing at night, but I would not do well on a morning dose, I think. Originally he had instructed me to take it at night, but I found the effects taking a while to kick in, and then lasting well in to the am, making it hard to wake up. Two days ago, I went up on it by a quarter of a pill, which is 37.5 mg. I will do this for a week, then go up by another 37.5, and see how that is. I always titrate up very slowly on meds.
