It gets unbearable. When I reduce the dose back to 600mg it gets bearable. But it is still there. I am wondering if anyone has had this reaction. It is my main med for pain, but it seems to be increasing it. I have verified this reaction by going back and forth between the 600mg and upping it to 1200+ then reducing it again. Any help would be appreciated.....
My twelve yr. Old daughter takes 1600 mg a day. When she was on 1900mg a day she would get very dizzy and almost pass out, she said everything would turn either black or yellow. We went down to the 1600 mg dose and it is better but it seems to be looking its effect.
