    Hi Iola, did you let your doctor know your fear on taking it. 25 is a very low dose. I take 50, which is low also but I did have some side affects. They tell me that it is a sign of the drug working. I too was alittle frightened but i do feel better than I have for along time. I take mine for anxiety, mild depression. Always let your doctor know if you feel that the med is not working or you need advice on something. This med does take awhile to fully get the benefit. Around 6 to 8 weeks for some. Take care,we are here for you.

      From the very first pill you take. Some people start feeling results sooner. So don't worry, everyone is different. 😁

      Debra, just wanted to add that some people have no side affects or at least minor. When you up your dose again you might have some side affects.
