In my opinion, such a low dose. Try one 25 gm a day for a few days and then nothing.

I can only assume you didn't mean grams, gm, but rather mgs, as in milligrams. Can you please post back and clarify?

At such a low dose, there should not be any need to taper.

The FDA warns that the typical withdrawal effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, fever, and chills.

Hi, I have been tapering from 2x75mg a day for 5weeks then dropped to 2x50mg, now on 2 weeks of 1x25mg then stop all together. Reading horror stories about withdrawal. How did you cope with just stopping when you got to 25mg a day? My prescription will run out on a Friday when in die to stop so no back up plan over the weekend and starting to panic now.
