Do NOT skip days when tapering medications!

Posted by SLS on February 23, 2005, at 16:07:39

With the exception of Prozac (fluoxetine), it seems that skipping days in between doses of medication is counterproductive. It makes the tapering process more painful, not less. You are better off taking smaller amounts of the medication every day, even if it means dividing the pills into fractions.

With Paxil and Effexor, I have had great success taking very small doses several times a day.
