"This med is usually prescribed for anxiety but I&#039;m taking it for post-surgical nerve pain. It is truly a miracle. I take a tiny dose of 0.25mg and it lasts for 14-18 hours! The only downside to it is that it can cause dependency &amp; you eventually get used to it and have to increase the dosage. For that reason alone I don&#039;t take it every day although I&#039;d love to."
