Youll be fine at 1/4 or 1/2 a pill. try in AM when you dont have to sleep, try that for a couple of days and see how it affects you. If every thing seems fine Then take 1/4 or 1/2 only at night for a few nights and see how it goes. after a week at say 1/4 of a pill, once a day, am or pm, try both am and pm.
Many docs Ive ran into are not sesitive about titration, slowing increasing or decreasing meds. You can do that for your self if you feel you need to. Its unfortunate he did not give you an explanation.
I sympathise with your pain dilema. I too have had chronic neck, back and leg pain for years.
Maybe Benedryl PM at night and heating pads, will help till you get it sorted out.good luck
> My Rx says one in a.m. and two before bed. I have some severe back problems, but this is mainly for the sciatic nerve. My leg gets so bad at night, I can't sleep. But, I like your suggestion of gradually introducing into my system...if I can get up the courage to try again.
