Just so that you don't become disppointed, if you should lose the beneficial effects of milnacipran within the next few days, it doesn't mean that the drug has stopped working. On the contrary, it is just beginning to do its work. (Actually, it is the brain that is doing all the work). Sometimes, a drug will effect a positive "blip" improvement within the first few days. Then the improvement disappears and shows up again after a few weeks. I don't know that this is the scenario that you will experience, but just in case, don't stop taking the drug until you have been on it for 3-4 weeks. Of course, you can abort the trial early if you find the drug otherwise intolerable.
