Hi, Michelle.  Please talk to your doctor about this.  We aren't medical professionals here, but I do know that it's not a good idea to mess with the dosage without discussing with your doctor.  I don't know why you're wanting to do this but if it's because you're feeling better and don't think you need it, for sure you want to talk to your doctor first.  Sorry I can't help you more than that, but it would be irresponsible of me to tell you anything else.
