I am on 5mg, for the last 2 weeks, and plan to go down to 4 to-morrow, however, after reading experiences of other people, I may have to go up again. I am preparing myself, hoping for the best, but will not be devastated by the worst. Some people have had to take the drug for many years. So far I am lucky to have to have endured it for 3.5 months. Good Luck to you !
