I have to buy online (£110 for 56 300mg) after 4-5 days on 1 300mg it no longer worked and anxiety, panic and severe sweating and paranoia were back. Is it common to build tolerance so fast? Dont want to keep uping the dose...

Hi, I've never heard of anybody building a tolerance so fast.
I've been prescribed it for more than three years now, although I've built a tolerance
it still controls the severe anxiety. Be Careful buying it online because it should be monitored by your
doctor.
Marty; No what is going on when you first start this medication many people get different reactions for the first 7 to 14 days then it should start to work better it takes time even the increase in paranoia,panic anxiety the things you were having before get worse during this 2 week period then they should go away and slowly you build up a blood level to this. And you should start to see the benefits of this medication. if it continues to cause you problems talk with your doctor.
