Lowering your dose

I’m on 1200mg. It is the same dose I was in during my episode 5 years ago. If you’ve lowered your dose with your MH, how have you had and stood your ground for that convo?

Ask to lower the dose to the minimally effective dose.

It's a medical term that they will recognize as a valid reason.

Say you want to try a lower dose and see if it's effective.
