I'd start out taking the minimum amount possible - that's my advice coming from years of working in the mental health field. Can't give you any personal based advice.

I am glad to hear that it wasn't your heart - whew!
I called my Pharmacist and asked if i could split it in half. They said it was just fine. That it takes down to the lowest dose you can get of that med. And next time I could get the lower dose. But heck I get more this way and don't need a refill sooner. I will stick with this dose but cut the pills in half!
