Does anyone have written figures for tapering last .5 mg Valium?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am down to my last .5 mg in tapering off diazepam doing liquid taper. Is there a post anywhere or does anyone have a list of daily reductions to finish my taper?

 

I tried doing calculation provided by a kind buddie here, and think I must be doing something wrong as I have myself ending all the way in September.

 

Having more intense symptoms now so this is my 4th or 5th day holding at .5 to see if they will settle. Recently had been tapering at 1/2 ml a day or two, with some holds.

 

Thanks for any help. Sorry I'm having trouble getting this.

What is the ratio/concentration of your liquid...mgs per ml?

Have been using 2 mg pill to make 200 ml solution...thanks, builder.

If you continue to cut .5ml (.005mg) it would take about 3 months to get to zero.

 

But most folks don't find it necessary to taper all the way zero.

Ok, so continue  as I have. Should I expect my w/d symptoms to be stronger now that I'm at lower amount and just live with it or do holds?  There have been symptoms right along with occasional Windows, but really got slammed the other day so have been holding and feeling just a little better since. Thanks

Based on my experience, as I got lower, my sxs diminished.

Things seemed to be a bit better as I went down until I reached this point. I had reached tolerance when I discovered what was wrong with me and this has been prescribed for many years. Not sure if that matters...all of us are different I guess. I hope things will improve soon. Thank you once again for your help.
