I'll tell you, Wendy, 150 SR twice a day is about my upper limit, and I usually tolerate meds well. I had to back off at 400mg because of chest pain and headache. Interestingly, I was talking with my Internist the other day (as he was about to check me for mitral valve problems)and HE is taking 150SR three times a day. He used to take Amphetamines for ADD, but had to switch to increased WB. I don't know if I could handle "speed" right now! BUTTTTTT...... I can do fairly well with the 300 mg. The seizure risk is a POSSIBILITY, but I read a paper that was written by a doc who worked with WB when it was first being developed in the late 70's, and he said the seizure theshold is higher than the "safe" high end dosing, but a very realistic possibility when one went much higher.
