You might get pretty uncomfortable but you will be ok. Been there, same dose
Yeah… and my psychiatrist was probably going to need to rise my dosage anyway. Much calmer now. Thanks. :)
As others have said, shouldn't be an issue, I'm currently on 70 mg in the morning and another 20 mg after lunch since I felt the effect wasn't sufficient later in the day so they gave me a second dosage for the afternoon. Here (in Sweden) it's possible to get 70+30 mg if it's necessary for a boost later in the day.
I got started with medication barely three weeks ago. Next Monday I'll be seeing my doctor again to do a follow-up and for that I've been keeping a journal of the whole thing, including this event.
Tbh I don't feel anything at all from 30mg, and for side effects I get really lethargic for a bit and maybe some headaches here and there (specially in the begging) at a regular time interval in the evenings.
I'm going to ask for something to counter that since it happens way to early for me.
I'm on Spain so at least I don't have to deal with the drug situation there.
