Hi

[[ka...]]

Started taking lorazepam about 13 years ago. The manufacturer was bought out and the new one doesn't put any active ingredient in. So, in Dec. I went from 3 mg a day to 1/4. Too fast, I'm aware now. I didn't always take that much (3 per day) so I ended up having some left over, luckily, because now I have no choice but to go off it. Not knowing how to do that I jumped in with the 1/4 dose and am about 2 days from cutting the 1/4 in half. My brain is not great right now but I think that's an 1/8?
