Cipralex - up the dosage??


20 years ago 0 6 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi guys (or Dumela, as they say in my country) I have been on Cipralex (10mg daily)for almost six weeks now, and although I have stopped having episodes of disassociation, I still feel exhausted all the time and have difficulty concentrating. My psychologist thinks that the drugs should have "kicked in" by now, and that my dosage should be increased to 20 mg per day. My doctor says that I should wait a bit longer, as it can take 2 or 3 months before the drugs have their full effect. Who is right? Does anyone have any experience of this type of thing? Thanks! Antares
