Start slow despite package insert indications

See what good was it to start at the recommended 45 mg to only end up with severe side effects and have to start all over again. Why can't these drug manufacturers make a recommendation to start at 15 mg, else why would the pill come in 15 mg if it should be started at 45 mg.

I'm not sure why they do this as so many users of AD's can have S/E's at any dose so it only makes sense to start at the lowest dose.

Nardil also has bad side effects related to hypotension and that side effect has to be adjusted to very slowly raising the dose only once you are not having severe dizziness.

Package inserts often times contain the wrong message and I believe this is the case with Nardil. Starting at 45 mg will cause many users to fail a trial of it due to severe, intolerable side effects.
