Recommended dosing: for Luvox is 100 - 300 mg once a day, usually at bedtime. Like other SSRIs, Luvox, is usually dosed once daily. The dose may be divided to reduce side effects. Luvox differs from other SSRI, in that it is FDA approved for the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder and social anxiety disorder. Consider discussing dosing regimen with the prescriber to see why it is prescribed twice a day.
