Ya, I forgot. You're upside down there. Christmas in summer, and all that.
> So is this something i will have to keep doing increasing the dose?
I'm suggesting you increase the dose until: a) you achieve relief; or, b) side effects or lack of efficacy lead you to abandon the trial. You start at 20 mg Prozac, but I know someone who was taking 100 mg. You don't get there in one jump. 900 mg is the starting point for SJW.
> would you suggest another one tablet a day? or half?
I don't know the size of your tabs, but I'll assume 300 mg. Yes, another tab a day. I was taking 5 x 450 mg (2250 mg/day).
> and can i take it together with one or should i now take it 4 times daily...Thanks
> NickI never bothered with the three times a day thingie, but that's just me. I would always forget a dose, or whether I took it or not. One dose a day is all I ever did. If you find that you get adverse effects from lumping it all into one dose, then I can see a good argument for splitting it up. The half-life isn't so short that you absolutely need three-times-a-day dosing.
