Maximum dose is 20 mg/day but in some instances we have gone beyond that.depending upon the symptoms and response we modify the dosage.so discuss ur problem first then we can decide the management plan.

Dose of a medicine depends upon tolerability of patients. We always see risk benefit ratio. Dose more than FDA approval may be used if this ratio is favorable.
