It really depends on how much and how long you have been taking it.

Our bodies can become dependent on anything that we ingest on a regular basis for a long period of time. It doesn't matter if it is your morning coffee or a Diet Coke with lunch. Stopping anything like this abruptly, will result in some withdrawal symptoms, the severity depends, as I said, on how much you used and how long you have been using it.

This drug is a Benzodiazepine derivative, so it is addictive in itself, so if you have been on it for a long period of time, you will more than likely experience adverse effects if you stop taking it cold turkey.
