Weaning off of Inderal LA, help please!?

Question

I had been on diltiazem for over a year because I have PVC's, not high blood pressure. I have been having migraines so dr switched me to inderal la. I took it for about 2 weeks had really crappy side effects and so dr said i could switch back. The pharmacist told me to wean off by taking the 80mg every other day for about 10 days and then just stop and that should be ok. I have done this and I feel ok, does anyone know if this is generally the way they wean you off of it, cause my dr didnt even tell me to wean off, he just said switch back but I know your supposed to wean off of it. Any suggestions?

I was on Inderal for about six months, and I slowly weaned myself off of it. I thought  I would be in trouble with my Doc, but he was very happy I was off of it due to the side effects. It is a beta-blocker and has all kinds of side effects
