How big of a cut did I make? Is it safe? And where do I go from here

So I’m doing a dry taper... I’m just trying to find out what percentage this cut is 
The weight went from 0.119 to 0.0835
I’m just trying to know how much of a reduction percentage wise that is. 

If you’re not interested in the whole story no problem but for those who may say that’s too big of a cut or anything I will break it down.

I was on 4mgs daily for 15 years. I’ve been CTd, I’ve been kindled in the past, tapered 3 times and I try to be as safe as possible in this taper, but I also NEED to get off of this med. my night time dose was become very annoying to weigh and it was close to half of a pill so I just decided to start taking exactly a half breaking it down the middle instead of weighing it. It’s been 4 days since this cut and so far so good. I’d like to stay at this dose for 2 weeks and then continue my taper. 

Total daily dose was 0.453 and is now is 0.4175 if I did the math correct 

morning dose 0.167

afternoon dose 0.167 

PM dose 0.119 now reduced to 0.0835

Hi, @[Je...].  Your math is correct.  You just made a 7.8% reduction from your previous total daily dose.

That is considered within the “safe” range.  If you handle it well after 2 weeks, you could just drop the same percentage and reduce your total daily dose weight to .385 (.4175 x .922 = .385).
