I guess i could be inpatient when i get on the cannabidiol.
Lets say Cannabidiol works 100% for psychosis and my only concern is Tardive Dyskinesia that could result from a too quick reduction in Antipsychotics. I dont want to overwhelm my body with the task to adjust to the lower dosage although CBD covers psychosis 100%.
Every how many weeks can i reduce Zyprexa by 2.5mg OR Seroquel by 100mg.
Do you understand what i am trying to ask? Jeez there are moments when you realize that english is a little harder than you thought it is:)
schizo-affective, type depressive
Seroquel 600mg
Zyprexa 12.5mg
75mg Effexor
Metformin 2000mg
Lithium orotate 360mg
6.000 IU Vitamin D
