    I’ve been taking it for about 7 months and didn’t feel any better. Gp increased my dose from 50mg to 100mg six weeks ago and the difference is amazing. Feel I’m getting my life back.

    Dont know whether it’s a side effect, although I’ve suffered with insomnia for years, but if I get four to five hours sleep at night, then that’s good. It’s normally 2/3 hours.

    No side effects at all
