Hi, I've been taking 10mg vortioxetine for around 3 weeks. I'm wondering if anyone has seen much improvement in anxiety symptoms from 10mg, I have GAD and social anxiety.
Vortioxetine dose for anxiety?

Hi, Selfcare!
10mg is the recommended initial dose and the maintenance dosage ranges from 5-20mg/day. Everybody responds differently to this type of medication so some people may benefit from 5mg but others may need as much as 20mg to feel the full benefit of the medication.
Most people will begin to feel improvements in the first several weeks but it can take 4-8 weeks for it to become fully therapeutic.
People may be answering your question soon with their own personal experiences.
Best regards,
