“…Clinically, recommended dosing with tianeptine is 37.5 mg/day. At high doses (75 up to 3000 mg/day) tianeptine has been reported to be associated with a risk of abuse and dependency [99][100][101][102][103][104][105][106]. For example, Kisa et al [103] reported that a 34-year-old patient developed tianeptine dependence after using doses of 750 mg/day of tianeptine for one year.…”
