Hello Kind People, I’m Kat. I’ve been taking 25 ml for a month for panic disorder and just increased to 50 ml. Did you by chance experience blurry vision and head tingling too? I’m taking it in the AM and feeling dizzy for a couple hours, but afraid to take it at night incase it keeps me awake. Have you tried splitting dose over a couple hrs? Sleep greatly helps with anxiety so not wanting to take it late in the day.  Thank you and blessings for us to all enjoy peaceful calm days. x

    Hi Kat, your probably having side effects from increase but let your doctor know. I had dizziness with med. As too splitting dose, i heard that this shouldn't be done . But then again ask doctor. I will tell you that it helped me tremendously. It could take up to 6to8 weeks ,depending on each individual. Good luck,😎

      Hi Brenda,

      Very kind of you to respond and so pleased for you to have had a good experience with this med.  I’m relieved to hear the side effects might lighten up as time goes.  Yes, a chat with my Doc is a must.  Best wishes and many thanks, kat x
