Each serving is two tabs, or four tabs? Oh, the link is down below.

Four tabs, split up the way they say, is perfect.

It won't adversely affect these meds (it might make the tranxene feel a little stronger). I can't promise it will help you. I can hope it will help you.

I do not know what happened. Did you take it with vitamin C like I recommmended? It could be that your body is in extreme oxidative stress, and it needs more help to get stabilized.

1000 mg/day vitamin C helps the vitamin E do its job without becoming oxidized itself.

Otherwise, I do not know. I have no experience trying to directly treat TD.

Good luck,

The vitamin C might protect you from this worsening of symptoms.

Could you do one simple test with me?

Take vitamin C one day. Then, the next day, take vitamin C and vitamin E together. Take 800 or 1000 IU vitamin E (whatever the size of the capsules lets you take). Take it just for that one day. Take the vitamin C alone the next day. Then take the combination again. And let me know if this is better.

Of course, if there is a worsening, stop taking it. I think the vitamin C and the lower dose of E could work safely for you.

Why? Why is complicated, and will not affect whether it helps you. I would like to see if there is a way to help you.
