Answers:
im taking the same medication and was told to start out taking 10mg a day and then increase to 20mg-just to slowly introduce it to my body. im not a doctor by any means but it sounds like it would be alright to do, esp if you have never taken this medicine before. you should still check with your doctor though, just to be sure. but as long as you are not taking more than your recommended dose then it sounds ok :)Health Question & Answer
