when you are comfortable with 1mg go to 34mg, then halfmg.  If it were me I would taper slow, and feep in contact with your doctor. You can always go up a little if you feel you need to.

have been taking 1 mg of LORAZAPAM - called Lorax in my country (Brazil) - for several years now - helps me fall asleep earlier - do feel some memory loss though so maybe not such a good thing to take after a certain age.
