Yet many common supplements have 5-10 mg of it! And you read the reviews and they're polar opposites. "finally found something that works" and "Made me even more speedy.."

I think there ARE people out there that for some reason need a megadose of it. But it seems wise to me to start with 1 mg and work your way to your dose.

I've always been a light touch! Learned the hard way to never just accept a prescription from a doctor without saying first let's start really small and work our way up to find the right dosage.

I wish more doctors understand this kind of finesse with pharmaceuticals because it would 1- save people money, and 2-save them awful side effects from too high a dosage. One size fits all does NOT work, I'm living proof.

And, I've been a medical assistant and seen what doctors do, and don't do when prescribing. They may cut back when a patient comes in saying "I can't take this med anymore it's making me sick!" But, hey here's an approach to avoid that -- don't start everyone at the 'usual' dose.
