> You do realize 450mg per day is the max dose? That is quite a jump from 300 to 450. I would advise taking 400 mg a day first. Be careful how you space the doses. Usually they advise against taking 300 mg at once unless you are on an antiseizure drug or it is an extended dose form. I would expect you to be jittery towards the end of the day. Some people are a bit tired. Did you know it is sometimes used as an ADHD med?
My pdoc told me to go from 300 to 450 mg -- 300 am with 150 at lunch. I didn't get sleepy after lunch. I'm afraid of sleep problems at night if I take any after lunch.I realize that 450 is max dose. I take the generic SR. I also take 7 other meds -- which makes things complicated (clonazepam and Mirapex the only other "brain" meds).
Time will tell.
Thanks
