Ativan
I thought I would share my taper plan thus far. I have had some symptoms such as headaches, fatigue and some nausea but other than that it has worked well for me and I am able to make a cut every 14 days.
I cut 5% every 14 days and then hold for 14 days. I cut the tablets using a razor knife and weight the tablets on a scale. I intend to keep four doses all the way until the end. Once the doses are very small I will crush them into a powder, weigh them, put the powder in my mouth and chase with water. Here is an example of the calculation of doses:
So I cut one dose at a time starting from the bottom.
My current doses are
Dose 1: 0.34
Dose 2: 0.34
Dose 3: 0.33
Dose 4: 0.32
Total = 1.33mg (hold for two weeks)
Then I calculate 5% of 1.33mg which is 1.26mg. That is a 0.07mg difference, so then my doses will be
Dose 1: 0.34
Dose 2: 0.34
Dose 3: 0.33
Dose 4: 0.25
Total = 1.26mg (hold for two weeks)
Then I calculate 5% of 1.26mg which is 1.20mg. That is a 0.06mg difference, so then my doses will be
Dose 1: 0.34
Dose 2: 0.34
Dose 3: 0.27
Dose 4: 0.25
Total = 1.20mg (hold for two weeks)
and so on and so forth. I really hope this helps someone.
