I was told 800mg is the max dosage however I don't know your history. I was on 25mg for 7 years and it worked better then than my.200mg I now take.for bipolar. It is an amazing drug once your body gets used to it. My dr explained it like a shotgun shell. It is one pill that works differently on each person but works for depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, and other things. I have always used it as my mood stabilizer and get highly aggitated when I go a few days without it where I don't like my clothes even touching my back. I am also on zoloft 150mg and klonopin 1mg 3x per day which I usually take only twice and suboxone for pain. I suggest you do research on all your meds and how they work and work with each other. I believe we can learn more about our illnesses and help edjucate our doctors so we get the right treatment sooner. Hope that helps.

Although that is way too much for me, its a common dosage amount for some. Alzheimer patients and those with severe psychosis often get 3500 mg and up according to my doc. I was prescribed 50 mg per day 5 years ago for shift work disorder. (an off label use) About an hour later I've got quite the buzz, and sleep well.
