Fine to stay on a low dose?

Yes, stay low. I hit my goal on just 1.5, took a year, but nobody should feel obliged to pay for a higher dose while the low one does the job.
 
Going back to .25 is fine, moving up isn't mandatory, and even less than .25 works. A lot of docs push fast increases for the best outcome, though that's not always true. Stay low for around two weeks and see whether it sits well.
 
couldnt agree more. i stuck with 2.5 the entire run since it kept doing what it needed to. in my opinion, holding at the smallest effective amount is always the right call. three years in now and im still maintaining on a pretty minimal amount.
 
Finding a prescriber you actually trust and who gives sound advice matters a lot here. I went over maintenance dosing with mine a few months into treatment. Part of why advice varies so much is that reactions to this medication differ person to person, and providers themselves don't agree on the target, some push toward the highest dose a person can handle, others aim for the smallest amount that still gets results.
