Quitting Xanax

Posted by jono_in_adelaide on May 25, 2011, at 21:37:36

Sufferer of panic disorder / aniiety / depression here

Current meds

Sertraline 100mg om

Reboxetine 100mg bd

Alprazolam 1mg bd

Risperidone 1mg nocte

I have been on the Alprazolam for about 12 months..... 5 months ago I reduced from 1mg tid to 1mg bid without any issues, and now want to try and slowly withdraw.

I'm thinking the next step would be to reduce to 0.5mg in the morning and 1mg at night for a while, then 0.5mg twice a day.

Any idea how long I should leave been dose reductions?

I think it depends on your body as you say so far no trouble withdrawing so I'd see what happens and take it from there. Phillipa
