> So, I'm stabilized on the 6mg patch now. No hyperkinesia, no dyskinesia or tounge problems. More energy, etc. No agitation. However, my anxiety is comparable to not being on it. Specifically, I have an awful torticollis (spasms) in my neck that are only helped with a lot of serotonin. I want to try upping the patch- are two 6mg patches equivalent to one 12 pharmacokinetically? Thanks sls.
I am not Scott but I do have an experience. I cut the 6mg in half to make 9mg. It hasn't hurt me to do it, the pdoc won't know about it until the 15th and if it helps she can write me an rx for it. It does seem to have helped some with the anxiety to go up but I don't know about the neck thing. serotonin tends to give me that, not make it better but in your case maybe it is just the thing. I take klonopin for muscular tension as it is related to the dang anxiety.
