I'm not sure why but I was really excited to finally get up to the max Tirz dose - 15mg - and WOW - it was like a complete 180 from the incredible experience I'd been having. I obviously understand that higher doses can lead to increased side effects, but as a former "super responder" now I understand what others who struggle with this medication experience. Instant fatigue, crippling headache, intense nausea no matter what I eat. Going to taper back down immediately to 12.5mg and wondering if that should be my maintenance dose moving forward.

I’ve heard this about 15 for my friend too! She had to go back down and found 10 to be her sweet spot.

Always fascinating how diff doses affect everyone different! Thanks for your sharing. I haven't gotten past 10mg and having read this I might just stay where I'm at :)

I'm only at 10mg and eager to go up but this post is making me second guess why I'm so anxious to taper up if I'm already having great results.
