This is arithmetic, not a plan. Fills are spaced 30 days apart — the label's own supply length — and priced on the date each one falls, so dated price changes are already included. Your prescriber decides whether you step at all, and many people stay at a lower dose.
The label's own words (once daily)
1.5 mg once daily for days 1 to 30, then increase every 30 days as tolerated: 4 mg, then 9 mg, then the 25 mg maintenance dosage from day 91. Take on an empty stomach and wait 30 minutes before eating, drinking or taking other oral medicines.
