Thank you Phillipi,
If anyone else can be helped..I did find this the following...which explained to me WHY the order in which we detox our meds or go from one to another is important:
Addressing withdrawal side effects is accomplished through specifically designed products for benzodiazepine withdrawal.
The products are: Power Barley Formula, Omega 3 and Vital Sleep. All three products are used for psychotropic drug withdrawal but each type of medication has their own sequence of product use.
Benzodiazepine withdrawal is different than antidepressant withdrawal. Withdrawal side effects are usually different as well as the rate of speed a person can reduce the medication.Many people are taking more than one psychotropic medication at a time. Some medications can increase the time other medications take to clear the body.
If you begin reducing the wrong medication first, you will go into withdrawal from the other medication even though you never reduced the dosage.Example: If you are taking Zoloft and Ambien, Zoloft increases the Ambien by 43%. If you were to begin reducing the Zoloft first, you would probably experience Ambien withdrawal even though the Ambien was never reduced. Many benzodiazepines do the same.
