Hi Mari.

What you do depends on how bad the paresthesia is and how long it lasts.

Can you describe the paresthesia - location, sensation, intensity? Is it upper body numbness, by any chance? Are you experiencing anything else - somnolence, fatigue, vertigo?

Do not take another dose until it goes away, obviously, but see how long this spell lasts. I am hoping this paresthesia will resolve within 3-4 hours. If it does not, or if it is very disturbing, I would certainly contact a health professional before taking another dose.

FYI, this drug has a very short half life in typical individuals. It produces an active metabolite with a signficantly longer half-life.

I wonder if you can cut the thing into quarters? What shape are your tablets? It is possible this might be only a transient side effect but a slower titration might be good, if possible.

Take things one step at a time and follow your instincts.



waves hoping you feel better soon.
