I was put on 1500mg (3 pills a day) from the beginning. So, naturally I was sick as a dog for a week. I have been on it for 2 months now and have adjusted well. I think as long as your meds are being introduced gradually, you will have mild side affects. Be thankful you haven't been sick.

Good luck! Kelly
