I'm not sure. I want to try 25 mg for two weeks. Should I just stop after 50 mg, or go for the 25 mg?

I'm staying on Trileptal and he prescribed Varistal (spelling?) for anxiety as needed, but I don't think I want to try it.
It is always best to taper off meds as slow as possible. I’ve come off low doses of Seroquel before and had insomnia and other issues by dropping off too fast.
