My pharmacy could not fill my prescription today. I am out and won't be able to get any until Monday afternoon. Has anyone experienced any difficulties when they've missed a few days?

I'm sure it's not a big deal, but I thought I'd check anyway. Thanks.

Nope, my pharmacy has to order it so it takes a day and I did it on a friday when I was already out and they were closed on the weekend (its a pharmacy on a college campus). Anyway I was fine for four days. I did break a tablet in half the first couple days nobody told me to per se just felt like the right thing to do. So to answer the question I had no adverse affects from being off it for four days and going right back on it. Hope that helps good luck

I stopped taking it (per doctor's orders) pretty much cold turkey, 60 mg to 0. I had no adverse effects. My doctor is now having me take it for a few weeks here and there as needed. So that makes me think it's safe to start and stop it.

I get manic if I don't take it after two days, but that's the only side effect I have had. No headaches, or any typical withdrawals. I think you'll be alright.
