That's much more than me. I don't really want my doctor to increase the dose if I call and tell him it's not helping. You can tell whether or not a drug will work. I like very little about this one.
He'd probably increase it to 2 x 2mg Xanax XR. This is why I am not requesting that it be increased. I'm stating that it does not make any difference in my anxiety, whether I take it or not.
I actually have taken 2 x 3mg Xanax XR. Did it help? Ehh... it made me sleep, which is partially what I was going for since I slept little the night before.
I've increased it another time while I was out all day. I can't say that I liked it. I was maybe a little drowsy and less anxious, but it's just not right for me. I think I would need 6mg a day for any real effect. That may freak my doctor out.
I'm going to make a poster for him that says Xanax does not equal Xanax XR!
I was fine at 4 mg Xanax. 4 mg Xanax XR is ineffective.
