Hard to predict: While the FDA clarifies how fast a medication can have its dose increased, there are no universal guidelines on the "waiting period" to see if a person will adapt to a medicine or if side effects will persist. If a person feels symptoms are getting worse rather than better, it is important to alert the prescribing physician immediately to make appropriate changes.
