I would have your doc prescribe you 1mg BID, because if you take 2mg once daily in the morning, you'll find it wearing off late afternnon. DO NOT TRY AND SPLIT YOUR 2mg XR PILLS IN HALF OR YOU WILL LOSE THE EXTENDED RELEASE!
I took a 1mg pill twice daily, 7:00am and 7:00pm and it worked beautifully.
The only downside is cost because for a months supply you'll be filling sixty 1mg pills versus thirty 2mg pills, but it works much better, no peaks and valleys.
