Hi Terry, every time I would have to increase dose I would get very sick to my stomach, really bad pain in my legs and jaw pain. And once I startedto feel better it was time to increase dose again. I just know for me it helped staying on a dose longer so my body could adjust. Are you on uptravi?

Hello Jennifer, yes when I started Uptravi the side effects were horrible!! When I finally got to 1000 mg 2 × a day I couldn't stand it so my Dr said it was ok to go back to 800 2 × a day so I did and I stayed on that dose for 4 weeks before I increased dose abd doing that way staying on a dose 4 weeks before increasing really helped and I am now at 1,600 2 × a day and I have no more side effects and feel so much better. But we are all different whst works for me might not work for you. But I wish you the best and send you my prayers.🙏🏻❤️
