I'm on 500 mg twice a day. It gives me diarrhea but not bad enough to stop it.

It gave me blurry vision but apparently that is a rare side effect. I didn’t have stomach issues with it as many people do.

I got where my tummy was very upset when I hit up to
1,000mg. So I stopped it for a few days and im gonna try and see if I can at least get to 500mg daily. I don’t see my dress again until September. __________________ Bipolar 1 w/psychotic features or schizoaffective bipolar type PTSD generalized anxiety OCD celexa, prazosin, Lybalvi and prn zyprexa and klonopin |
