Where to begin? Been taking Xanax for 27 years. Take as needed. I have no idea how much I have been taking, some days a lot, some days none. How do I find a starting dose to taper down from?
Rosalind
You need to write to beatingbenzos@outlook.com with your full history to receive a taper plan.
Kiyohiro Takeuchi
Thank you.
Now I am trying to taper of clonazepam.
I use it 0.05 mg/day (0.5 mg/day initially).
