If it is, then yes, many have tried it, and although it hasn't worked for me, I know that it has been very, very effective for many others.
From what I've heard, you have to taper up on it until you reach a level of about 150 to 200mgs a day (that's 6 to 8 pills a day). There are some side effects such as dizziness and lethargy in the beginning, but they do diminish with time.
Anyway, this is definitely something to look into further, as I know it has been of real help to many of us, even where all else failed.
Hope it helps you, too!
