Lowering the dosage

Postby desperate788 » Mon May 18, 2020 11:54 am

It's been nearly 5 years I'm taking resperdal 8mg and zyprexa 20mg. I think I came to a point at my treatment and want to reduce the dose to 4mg resperdal and 10 mg ztprexa. I know its not healthy to mess with drugs without medical supervision but I don't want to go to a doctor first they will prescribe an ad that I won't take second doctors can't perceive the core of my disease. What would you say in this situation?

Don’t ask medical questions regarding adjusting your medications in a forum.

I think desperate’s trolling is the most talented I’ve ever encountered.

“Should I switch from beer to liquor?”

“No!!!”

“So then vodka?”
