Are maximum doses more effective?

Posted by matt sanz on April 21, 2009, at 20:35:57

I just started taking Effexor XR three weeks ago and I'm already on the maximum dose for the med, 300mg. My doc said I would be able to find out faster if its going to work by going to a high dose quickly. But my question is this: Is it true that sometimes lower doses work better for people than the highest dose? If so than why didn't he give the lower doses a chance to work and just go right to the maximum dose? Thanks.
