hi. you can look up your tranquilizer and see what the half life is...i forget how many half lives it takes to get full elimination, tho. additional drugs on board can make figuring it out basically impossible...some speed clearance up, others slow it down, plus "individual results may vary," so...???

i would, of course, recommend a slow and steap taper off long term tranquilizers. some people stop and go on with life and try to forget all about psychiatry...others stop and end up having more problems than before. its...well...crazy.

what im doing is reducing my dose with the prescriber...im being given some neurontin to help and the neurontin dose is going up as the tranquilizer dose goes down.

i hope things get better for you. :-)
