    I wouldn't think so that is a really low dose. Are you cutting a 10mg into quarters?

      I started with 5mg and didn't really have any bad side effects like I got on 10mg. If anything your anxiety will cause you to think you are having side effects when you are not. Don't feel bad everyone who has anxiety worries to much. 😁 It's worth a try you already have anxiety so it's the only thing you have to loose. Hang in there.

    Darlene what side effects dos you have on 10!Vicky I took it years ago and got up to 40 on four weeks and loved it so much!I got pregnant and my regular doc took me off it because I was only on ten by that point and he said it's not therapeutic dose so he took me off!Bad idea!Everything came back a while later and my psychiatrist who got me on it who was excellent had passed away!I tried to go back on it at 10 mg and only lasted two days!I had racing thoughts burning under the skin in my arms and face like bad hot flushes and inner restlessness and insomnia!My doc wants me to try starting it again at 2.5 mg!I have been afraid to try it again and I had taken it for four years with no trouble!

      So I started a year and a half ago on 10mg it increased my anxiety bad, insomnia, sweating! I was really scared to take it so I don't know if I caused these side effects or not. I increased my dose to 15mg 11 days ago and the only side effects I have had is fatigue and a slight increase in anxiety.

      Thanx everyone for the advise it's easier said than done going on medication it's scary I think even if u have been on them before your body reacts differently every time the pharmacy told me this
