You should really discuss with your doctor. ..... I appreciate you have only being taking it for two weeks but have upped the dosage after one week and that you are on holiday so probably cannot consult with your doctor.

On googling it says: Do not stop it suddenly. You should reduce the dose by 5mg every few days. Once you get down to 10mg or less, you can stop it. I hope that helps with the decision that you make.

Not what you're looking for?
