Hello, MikeyMike! How are you feeling?

It would most likely be best to space them apart throughout the day, but you should follow whatever instructions your doctor provided.

As reported by the FDA, even with a gradual taper, you may experience withdrawal effects, such as nausea, headache, diarrhea and rebound pain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
