Still taking. I take 3mg a day. This is one of the best drugs I have been on. I have noticed no side effects and it brought me out of the worst mania. The only downside is it is a very expensive drug even with my insurance.

Has helped a great deal with paranoia espcially in the stores. Still hard to leave house though. Low dose of 3 mg and new to me still. Higher dose 6 mg knocked me out and I was dizzy!
