I'm pretty sure that one of the benefits of loxapine is you can go way up on the dosage. I looked up the dosage and it looks like 250/day is the usual maximum.

It's been 8 years since I was on it so I don't remember much. I think I was on 30 mg or something like that. Not much. It was too bad I got EPS because it was a really great med until then.
