I had good success with microdosing.
I did it with several meds - prozac, lexapro, cymbals, nortirptyline.
But the one where it really worked great was Savella. If I took just 1/8th to 1/4 of the smallest doses, it worked really well. If I took less, it didn't work at all. If I took more, it made me feel worse.
I first learned about micro-dosing psych meds from a Lyme specialist. He had great success with patients on just 1mg of lexapro, who started off with just one drop of lexapro, which is 1/10th of 1mg.
I do think doctors have a tendency to race us to high doses without trying to find our unique magic window along the journey.
