Namenda (memantine) increasing dosage?

Posted by ceebee on July 28, 2012, at 13:28:15

For OCD, Panic Disorder, and attention deficit issues (probably related to OCD/anxiety).

I should note that I myself have been at 15mg for about a week now (after going down from 20mg). I went back down to 15mg from 20mg because after 16 days at 20mg, I was still having the feelings of depersonalization/derealization and high anxiety.

I am toying with the idea of trying to up it back to 20mg. In part because I think I might better tolerate it having giving myself a longer adjustment period at 15mg. An additional thought I had would that it might be better keep a stable dosage BID, rather than 10 in the morning and 5 at night. Lastly, since I have to get my regular, non-schedule II drugs via mail order, I have 180 10mg Namenda pills, and I hate breaking them in half because my breaks are not always consistent (and the pills aren't scored).

What do you guys think?

Other medications:
Vyvanse 50mg, Toprol XL 50mg (both once daily in the morning)
