Hi Denise

 

Tapering off this type of medication should be done with the help of a doctor. Withdrawal symptoms can last anywhere from 10-14 days and up depending on how long you were on the medication. Have you spoken with your pharmacist or doctor? You may want to give them a call if you aren't feeling better soon.

 

Good luck

Nancy
