Everyone adjusts differently. I am on 1000mg and I get it within a couple hours and have to run to the bathroom. I suggest since it is your first night you might not want to take it if you have something to do... Cause the side effects are worse in the start... I have been on it for almost and it still upsets my stomach.......

I wouldnt take it right before anything important, because the first day i took it my stomach was heard by a coworker sitting like 30 feet from me. It continued for about two days. But i still get stomach upset sometimes. And dont tilt your head when you swallow, they can get stuck sideways and it hurts.
