I have been taking paroxetine 50 mg for my dysphoria and anxiety. My psychiatrist recently prescribed me tetrafol 7.5 mg twice daily to improve my depressive state.(other antidepressant did not respond) thus, how much time, does l- methylfolate 15 mg take to augment your mood levels? It has been 2 weeks but I have not noticed any posivite change in mood. Shall I give some more time to tetrafol tablet i.e l- methylfolate. I take cbt as well. Thank you.

Any medicine which is given for augmentation in depression show effects within 2-4 weeks. You can wait for 1-2 more weeks. All the best.
