It may take a few weeks before the right med and the right dose is found because dosaging is very individualistic. Everyone responds differently depending on your metobolic rate The side effects you are experiencing are a result of the dose being too high, too low or perhaps it is not the right medication for you. Adjustments usally have to be made within the first few weeks as the ulitimate goal is the lowest dose possible for the patient with maxiumum benefits and minimal side effects so its important to keep in close contact with your doctor during this trail period. Speak with your doctor and keep us posted.
