> Thanks so much for the advice. When you say build up slowly, exactly what do you mean? If my pdoc writes me a scrip for 25 mg. Do you think that upping it every week is slow enough? Thanks again-- nervz
my neurologist gave me a protocol (with a copy for the pharmacist ) that I was to follow as I increased the dosage over a period of weeks... I would assume that any doctor who wanted a patient to increase the dosage would give a similar direction with a time frame...
I was told how long to stay on each dosage and also told to continue at each dosage longer if I felt that I was not ready to increase the dosage...
although there was no indication of reason to stay ...
