In reply to What's the verdict-- 20mg Lex better than 10mg?, posted by Ame Sans Vie on April 15, 2003, at 12:51:23
> Just wondering about this as today is, I believe, my ninth day on 20mg, after six days on 10mg. Next Tuesday I raise it to 30mg, and two weeks later to 40mg. Yet I read in the monograph that 20mg has not been shown significantly more effective than 10mg. Naturally I'd assume that something must have skewed the results of those trials, but what are people finding is the real deal with higher doses of Lex? I'm having no side effects thusfar, and believe me, for an SSRI that's a major improvement for me! TIA
I am at week 11 or 12 on 10mg Lex. First 4 weeks I took 5mg. Missed yesterday and got really grouchy. Have been noticing in the last week or so, am getting more grouchy and bitchy than I have been since starting Lex. Is it starting to "poop out" on me? Should I try 12.5mg or even 15mg? Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone and GOOD LUCK TO US ALL!!
