From what I've read and researched, the minimum effective dosage is 1500mg's daily. Because you don't want to throw it all into your system right away, it's pretty common for a doctor to prescribe 500mg's daily the first week, 1000mg's daily the second week, and then 1500mg's the third. That's what I did and it made the side effects a little less harsh. The maximum dosage you're supposed to take is 2550mg's if I'm not mistaken. I would start at 1500mg's and then from your lab results determine whether to increase the dosage or not, but I'm sure your doctor will decide depending on you coz everybody's different. Good luck!
