Hi Jessie!
It can take up to 6 weeks for the higher dosage to really kick in.
It shouldn't, but it could.
Give it another week or so, and if it still fails then see your doctor again...he may need to put you on something else.
Sometimes when we stay on a certain medication for too long it won't work anymore...we become immune to it, so to speak.
