Don't withdral too quickly:valium?

Question

side effects can be horendous,has any body tapered of their dose of valium,2mg p/day 3 yrs starting at 20 mg/p day?

Answer 1

2mg per day reduction is probably ok to do. Are you on heroin also though or is that being looked after on a methadone scheme. Towards the end you could try reducing every second day to zero.

The thing is there is always pain/stress in life...lots of old people live in constant pain with arthritis with no hope of it lessening...you'll be okay in a few weeks

The last thing I'll say is probably go for an antidepressant for a year or 2 after you come off the valium because the underlying condition was probably depression/anxiety
