It depends: It depends on what you are using it for. Your doctor will likely start you on a lower dose and give you instructions on going up gradually. You can either do this by phone or in person. It should be whatever you feel comfortable doing. Make sure to keep open communication with your doctor about how you are doing, and report any side effects. Good luck!

At least monthly: until the dose is full titrated up!
