yep. I might take 2 on weekends since I won't be working and won't have to be sharp in case I'm a little drowsy from it. I also might take 2 at night when I ride. I've read some people are prescribed as much as 3600 mg taken in equal amounts 3 x day.

I'm ascared after reading about it. I just hope it's enough to work so I can at least build up a little fitness while being treated.
