Daughter was only up to 250mg, and felt very tired, weak, headaches, dizzy.
Hope it passes. Good luck

Sometimes the reason no one is answering is because your question has already been answered OR people are busy with the holidays OR no one knows the answer.

If you have a heavy load of pathogens or a high load of toxins, a small dose can make you feel pretty sick. It is the die off that causes most of the symptoms.
As I said in your previus post, your doctor should be notified so they can advise you of the appropriate action to take. You are paying them for the expertise AND since they are responsible for prescribing this medication, I'm sure they would want to know.
