My doctor wants me to go off my prestiq. Be totally off 100mil in 6 weeks. How hard will this be?
He also wants me to stop my 200mil Lamictal cold turkey Hes trying to get me on Wellbutrin instead and says I need to come off some other meds before I can go on it. I said I'd try anything but my Geodon. Does anyone have any insight or suggestiom? __________________ I'm Blue |

I remember a guy from another site who would get real testy when he didn't take his Lamictal. I looked it up and the view is that you can quit cold turkey though. How long have you been on prestiq? I think it's harder the longer you have been on something. I was only on paxil for a couple of months and quitting was miserable.

I've been on Prestiq for about 1.5 years. So far I just feel flu like and foggy. Nothing else thats a huge deal. I took 150 instead of 200 mil of lamical last night. I've been on that for almost 10 years.
