Maybe: How big are you? Other meds? Other medical issues? How stressed? Likely aimed to a dose that would "work." but, should use lowest effective dose in most distant spacing possible as has high dependence potential (psych/physical). Good idea to pill-split and try 0.5mg to see if that is effective for you. If not, try the 1mg dose. Need therapy along with med or will just be pill-dependent.
