Go on-line and research the normal dosage for
The XL: it seems high. Were you given a generic
Or name brand?  That makes a big difference.
Generic is NOT the same. I have found it
Weaker and may be prescribed with a higher
Dosage. I did experience dizziness after switching
Back to name brand and had to reduce the dosage.
Good luck.
