Hello, my doctor has increased my dose from 15mg to 30 as my depression wasn’t lifted. How long does anyone think it will take to help? Thanks!

It can take a maximum of 3 months to experience the benefits but the vast majority get results in under a month.And most doctors adjust or adapt medication once a month maximum so world quite well.

Good luck

Initial time period five weeks, However it can depend on how long you have been on the initial dose. Generally it is not unusual for the Doctor to increase the dose after a given time, so it may take a further two weeks
