Be careful getting off it, the withdrawal effects are not fun.
Ah, thank you for this! It's interesting that you didn't gain any weight at 45mg and that you actually lost weight at that dosage. I guess it's all independent and depends on the person. I've never had weight issues in my life and never gained weight on any other medication, so this is a first. I think what I'll do is cut the dosage in half until I see my doctor. Thank you for commenting!
