Ditto. You can't stop the medications you're on cold turkey. Get a pill splitter.
  • Seroqual: Cut tablets in half, take 25 mg for one week, then stop.
  • Topamax: Cut tablets in half, take 50 mg for one week, then stop.
  • Celexa: Cut tablets in half, take 10 mg for two weeks, then stop.
  • Wellbutrin XL*: Take your regular dose every other day for two weeks, then stop.

*You can't split extended release tablets.
