Hi,
Thank you for your query.
Look, the effect of tenex is different from child to child, but it usually takes a few weeks for it to reach the full effect of the dosage. You are probably worried about the need to increase the dosage, but it sometimes is necessary, and may be only for some time.
Have a nice day and good luck.
