Adjust dose: Many focus start topiary ste low and gradually build up to therapeutic doses. 100. Mg daily was best during original trials, but we have ranged from 50 to 200mg deep ding in the patient and response. Side effects may limit dose, so your doc was helping to allow your body to slowly adjust. If side effects limit dose, ask,yiur doc about zonegran, a similar agent with fewer side effects.
