and only taper 10% every 2months or so...I should think that one can taper much faster than that. I don't understand why one couldn't reduce the dosage every 2 weeks. That's about how long it takes for receptors to reregulate themselves.
I am not immune to withdrawal syndromes. However, I have been able discontinue Effexor 300mg within two weeks using a flexible-dosing strategy. I have also used this method to discontinue benzodiazepines. I haven't had to discontinue Remeron, so I can't speak with certainty regarding its withdrawal syndrome, but I can't imagine that it would be that much different. It wouldn't really hurt to at least try tapering it more quickly.
