I split 10 taking 2 or 3 mgs. at night and the rest first thing in the morning (using one 5 mg. and five 1mgs.). It may be that you're reducing too quickly.It doesn't sound like 10 mgs. is enough to cover enough of your pain. You don't say when you were diagnosed, but taper slowly especially below 10 keeping to no more than 10% of your dosage.

Diagnosed 2weeks ago. Not tapering. On 10 mg/day. Want better relief at end of day. I may try the way you suggest! THANK YOU. I think I might need a little more but Bec of diabetes I want to minimize the rises in sugar and the need for a lot more insulin! I changed my diet to low carb and Sm going intermittent fasting too. It really helps w need to cover sugar rises. I’ve last 2 lbs this week doing this which I am happy about. THANK YOU For response !!!.
