I would advise using the dosages and time periods to be found in the starter kit. Phillipa described it well.
The difference between 25mg and 50mg is a full 100% increase in dosage. While you might be able to get away with starting at 50mg, some people react to it with the precipitation of a rash, which can be dangerous. I would recommend not doing anything that would provoke a rash. If you do, you would have to start all over again and possibly start at 12.5 and move up more slowly.
