i try to have my psych drugs tapered slowly, if possible. psych drugs 'work' by altering brain chemistry. that's...what they do. take away a drug, especially one as powerful as a tranquilizer/antipsychotic, one can expect a change in mood, anxiety, agitation, etc. not always a bad thing...these are powerful drugs, so i think its kind of irresponsible to just drop it from your treatment, no taper or anything.
