Hi lollipop,

I take 75mg at bedtime, never had any bad side-affects but that doesn't mean very much because everyone reacts differently. most of what us with fibro take works in the brain so you are bound to get a lot of differing symptoms and help.. You should be able to cope with side affects after a couple of weeks so if you are not then you need to see your doc or preferably a pain clinicLet us know how you get on. I do hope you find some relie.f
