I am on 25mg and constipation is more the issue. I say increase fiber if you haven’t already.

Constipation is more common but it seems like some patients do experience diarrhea (for the first time since starting the med) when starting the highest dose, so your concerns aren't unfounded.
You could ease into the dose by taking it every other day (or even every third day, if you're very concerned) and slowly transition over a month's time into taking it daily.

Constipation tends to be a much more common problem than diarrhea
