Well for me it started working really fast- by 50mg. I was taking it for agitated depression associated with BP and mood-swings. It really did a good job on that. It didn't lift depression at all -only took care of the agitation bit. At 200mg it has worked well for many years (5-6 years)
Personally I like it alot. Its easy to tolerate compared to other drugs. For me it did come with cognitive side effects , like poor memory and being less' on the ball' but that was a small price to pay- in my particular case.
I especially like it because its good for women in that it does not mess with your hormones like say valproate.
Just my personal experience...
