In reply to Luvox withdrawal. Any advice?, posted by vitalsign0 on August 4, 2005, at 14:11:10
Hi.
> I split the 50mgs pill into 4 sections and have tried going down to 37.5mgs at night. It's been 3 days now and I feel terrible. I don't have the "zaps", but I feel totally out of it. Hard to think straight.
The first thing I would do would be to take the medication several times a day rather than once a day.
If that helps, then you can perhaps use a dosing schedule that is more flexible. One strategy is to not take any medication until you feel the withdrawal symptoms begin to emerge. You should find that the interval between dosing will become longer and longer. It would be advantageous to be able to divide your medication into even smaller doses. Once the interval between 12.5mg doses exceeds 10 hours, you might want to try using smaller doses that allows the withdrawal symptoms to emerge between 6-8 hours after each dose, and continue the process from there.
How small a dose can you divide your pills into?
