Two weeks ago, I switched from Lexapro to Savella. My doctor gave me
a starter
pack, which contained
a 2-week titration
pack, which gradually increases your dosage, allowing the body to acclimate to the new medicine. However, before starting Savella, he told me to do the following: Cut the dosage down to 1/2 of what I would normally take a day for the first week. On the second week, take Lexapro every other day. On the third week, I was to start the Savella dosage.
