DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Desvenlafaxine should be taken
at approximately the same
time each day. Tablets
must be
swallowed whole with fluid and not divided, crushed, chewed, or
dissolved.
_INITIAL TREATMENT_
The recommended dose for desvenlafaxine is 50 mg once daily, with or
without food. In clinical
trials, no additional benefit was demonstrated at doses greater than
50 mg/day. Based on clinical
judgment, if dose increases are indicated for individual patients,
they should occur gradually and at
intervals of not less than 7 days. The maximum dose should not exceed
200 mg/day.
When discontinuing therapy, gradual dose reduction is recommended
whenever possible to minimise
discontinuation symptoms (see Section 4.4
SPECIAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR
USE
and Section 4.8
