Titration is the process of finding a safe and efficacious dose of a drug. The titration of drug dose is performed by your doctor; they will give you one dose and if the effects are not strong enough the dose will be increased, if the higher dose causes too many side effects the dose will be decreased. This continues until the critical dose is achieved. One this critical dose has been determined the medication schedule must be strictly adhered to in order to maintain control of the condition.
