Hi,
The dosage is subjective. You may have to take it for months. There is a misconception that pills give instant relief, for lasting changes kindly be patient. The effect will be experienced. You will be fine. Do not stop the medication or manipulate the dosage without consulting your doctor. It will do more harm.
Next Steps
Speak to the doctor who prescribed this medication to you. He/she will be the best person to guide you here.
Health Tips
