I think it's like 72 hours but it took a week for me to feel the difference. Hope you feel better on 1mg or higher. I could barely stand it...I tried tapering off the med last year...I never had to taper to get on. Maybe a day at five then up to ten. Maybe you could try something else although it is a good drug when you are stable on I it.
