My daughter had her baby and everything's been crazier than I, and I'm so sorry I left this conversation hanging.
When I was on Eff-XR, I would use it so quickly that I would need two doses a day. This is because I am a fast metabolizer I believe.
There are normal metabolizers and fast metabolizers, I believe.(?)
Tiny doses of psych meds create quick onset of side effects making it difficult for me to ever get up to therapeutic doses.
As far as medical meds, whenever I can, I get them injected vs. swallowing or sublingual or any other route, to bypass fast metabolization.
I feel a little 'ignorant' because I can't think how and when ingested meds enter our bloodstream in the whole metabolization process. Duh.
