jt07 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I can't tell you how long it will take to kick in for you, but the general advice is that you need to give it six to eight weeks at a therapeutic dose before writing it off. What dose are you taking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isbipo Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 I'm taking 10 mg per day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt07 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 10 mg is a therapeutic dose. So you might feel something after a few weeks, but you really need to give it at least six weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
