Everytime I get a RX I go on line and look it up. I check for side effects and dosage amounts. If you have an unsure feelings, go check it out before starting it.
I know for some, they actually get to a point of a high dosage of anti-depressants but it is after bringing them there slowly. For example, I started a couple of years ago at 10mg of Zoloft. By the time I finished it, I was up to 150mg.
