WEENING OFF XANAX, HOW MUCH, HOW SOON?

Posted by Danielle0 on August 4, 2003, at 15:55:20

Hi, I've been on Xanax 0.25 mg twice a day for 3 months. Then my anxiety got worse and I was up to 0.25 once in the morning and two at night for about a month now, because my anxiety is worse at night. On bad days, I have taken as much as 1.5 MG over the course of the day, but that was only one day here and one day there, not every day. So now, I've been on one 0.25 in the morning and two at night before I go to bed. Total of 0.75 MG a day. I want to now ween myself off and try to do without. My doctor wants to just quit me cold turkey and has tried by stopping the meds before. He'd be of no help in weening me. I want to know how to go about weening myself off. And in intervals of how long in between each reduction?

Thanks so much!
