Nortriptyline 25 mg is a standard 'starting' dose, and 75 mg is a standard 'target' dose (that's what I take). I titrated up very slowly, as nortriptyline tends to have a lot of side effects that will eventually go away but can be bothersome if you go up too quickly. Combining these dosages with a standard dose of Lexapro is a wise augmentation strategy, and not too much medication, in my opinion.
