Eh?
I don't know what your doctor was thinking. There is not one indicated use for this drug (standard monograph) that has a patient starting in at 200 mg/day. You just got too much of the drug, too fast, IMHO. I'm sorry for what you went through. A more reasonable starting dose might be 25 or even 50 mg.
The monograph for the XR formulation differs substantially from that for the IR version, but I can't see any supporting rationale for that......starting dose recommendation at 300 mg. Yikes!
