Guest Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I've been on Saphris for about a month. I take 5mg at night. Should it have worked by now? I get knocked out about 1 hour after taking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larkspur Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 It might not work because you are not yet at a therapeutic dose. The minimum daily dose is 10mg (5mg twice daily). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Elvis Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Yeah, when you're at an effective dose, APs work fairly quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmax15 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 um the dosage reminds me of zyprexa. 5-20mg. I hope it works they say saphris is the new clozaril. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderful.Cheese Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I took 20 mg of saphris for quite some time. 5 mg really is more of a starting dose for a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmax15 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 UPDATE: pdoc upped the saphris to 10mg and downed the seroquel xr to 400mg. It works fantastic! Usually before when the seroquel went below 800mg I'd be a nervous wreck. So far so good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
