But the meds are so low that they don’t seem to be doing the job anymore, even his therapist suggested to talk to a doc about increasing dosage. But my husband is terrified that higher dose will show down his reactions and he needs to be alert 100% of the time at work. He can’t be in a cloud, not at all. So it’s doubled edge sword.

I’d talk to your doc and see if there’s a connection. Be careful cutting the meds down though. It might cause some more problems
Yeah, I left a message for my doctor and haven't heard back. I still have a lower dosage at home, but I don't want to do this on my own. And I need his approval so that I can get it refilled.
