with careful monitoring of blood pressure. I was on 300mg tops, and now am on 150mg. I may go higher, but I'm doing well except for a total lack of interest in sex. Luckily, I'm unmarried and don't have a partner. I also get a "dried up" feeling from it. Dry nose, dry mouth and constipation. Drink lots of water!
Check your BP every time you go to the pharmacy if they have one of those monitors. I have never had higher than normal blood pressure while on it even though I went up to 300mg.
Good luck,
Colleen
