I take a gram of vitex daily as one dose in the morning. I've been doing this for over a year now.Good: Strong anti-anhedonic effect, substantially pro-social and somewhat pro-sexual.
Bad: Initially it was mildly sedating but that was about it for me.
From what I've read the ant-prolactin effect seems to kick in at around 400mgs. You want to err on the side of more than less with vitex as lower doses can stimulate prolactin release rather than decrease it.
Good luck,
Ten
