The usual dose to treat this illness is one 20 mg tablet a day, but your doctor may tell you to take up to 50 mg a day. If you are elderly the maximum recornmef1ded dose is 40 mg a day. Take Seroxat each morning after you have eaten. Swallow the tablets whole with a drink of water. Some people find that if they suddenly stop taking these tablets, they feel dizzy, shaky, sick, anxious, agitated, confused or they may experience tingling sensations or an increase in the amount that they sweat. They may also have difficulty sleeping and vivid dreams when they do sleep. But these symptoms are not common and they are not a sign of addiction. They will generally disappear after a few days. To avoid these symptoms, your doctor may tell you to take smaller doses or to spread doses farther apart before you stop taking the tablets altogether.
