I have often questioned exactly what "abruptly" means other than NOT stopping a medication "cold turkey"...4-5 days....a week...10 days? Is there general criteria for titrating "off" a medication? Or, is there NO GENERAL criteria? Does it depend on the medication? I do believe that Doreen's terrible reaction to titrating "off" the Cogentin...withdrawal symptoms similar to detoxification of drug addicts...could very well have been related to the titration having been too abrupt; thus, this question.

Thank you for any input you may be able to provide.
