Hi all, just a quick note!
I am currently taking 10mg of Cipramil (it was 20mg three months ago). As I felt ready to come off these tablets last month, I visited my G.P, who advised me to take the tablets on alternative days, i.e. Monday but not Tuesday, Wednesday but not Thursday, and so on.
I have had no problems thankfully (touching wood as I type). However, I visited a different G.P at my practice two days ago, as I have come to the end of my pack of tablets, and she said I don't need to gradually come off my medication, I can just stop.
As I came out of her room, I felt very confused. Two doctors have opposing views. I thought it was in your best interest to gradually come off anti-depresants like Cipramil???
Help[?]
