Typical dosages

The dosage range depends on the condition you’re taking the drug to treat and how effective the drug is for you. Typically, your doctor will start you on a low dosage. Then they’ll adjust it over time to reach the amount that’s right for you. Your doctor will ultimately prescribe the smallest dosage that provides the desired effect.

Since this dosage varies based on body weight, your “normal” dosage may be different from other people’s dosages.

But be sure to take the dosage your doctor prescribes for you. Your doctor will determine the best dosage to fit your needs.
