Aim for the lowest dose to suppress your symptoms. The LED (lowest effective dose) is what psychiatrists are supposed to aim for with any antipsychotic, even the "atypicals," and even when dealing with schizophrenia or severe bipolar I. All too often, docs (and patients) get fixated on achieving a "target dose." Some people can do fine on low dose (even as-needed) antipsychotics; others require higher doses, especially during periods of crisis and stress.
