script bottle probably repeats what the docs prescription said. its easy to goggle it online and see what the standards are. I repeat that I have never seen it listed as taking twice a day, but maybe he's got something in mind. I would still call his office and ask if he made a mistake. Hopefully, he is a psychiatrist and has lots of experience?
My script bottle even says twice a day. Ive decided to only take 30 mg once a day and depending on when i take it and how i feel by noon i determine on taking the second dose. Unfortunately im just stuck playing the getting the right dosage game. Thanks for the imput!
I am wondering if you heard your doctor wrong. V is one of the longest acting meds available. Its duration is 8 to 12 hours. It would be very unusual to prescribe it twice a day! 30mg is the lowest adult dose. If you feel it is not working after a few days on it, it can be raised. But look on the bottle. It should say only once per day.
Anyway, increasing the dose by 10 mgs will add about 2 to 4 hours at night. A high protein breakfast is important. With one, you should feel the effects in 30 to 45 minutes.
Hope this helps, but I would get on the phone to your doc (what kind is he anyway?) This medication is definitely not a two per day medication.
