> I went to talk with M's PHD yesterday, and he did call today to tell us to increase her dose up to 75mg am, and 75mg pm. I hope she can start to get feel the effects and not want to binge at all. She is really a moody person, and I really think it has helped her level off a bit. Could this be the answer, after two years of trying everything? I don't want to think so, it seems to good to be true. Cross your fingers for her. I know 150mg seems to be where several of you said you started to feel the effects. -L


AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is me screaming and I hope you hear it all the way from Northern Ontario ....
do not let her start at 75 mg in the evening... or morning or whatever....
let her reach the max dose for the time she is presently on...
I would HHHHOOOPPPPEEEE that it is the evening that he started her on...
then let her start at 25 mg in the mornings....
for two I REPEAT TWO, that is 2, weeks, then go up to 50 for two weeks then up to 75...
not 75 off the bat...

I am already on 300 mg twice daily and am being increased but at 25 mg increments and slowly...
this by the guy who did a lot of the studies regarding the weight loss

in fact he is the guy who discovered the weight loss involvement...

the fast track causes SO MANY PROBLEMS....

please slowly....
