The best way to do this is to taper the medication by 10 mg increments every week or two depending on how you handle the first reduction. You should have a doctor or pharmacologist (eg. pharmacist) work with you closely on this. Like sideeffects, withdrawl effects go away with time, and with a good taper you should probably not have many. We hear a lot about the horrible withdrawl effects of these meds, but in reality that only occurs in less than 5% of patients, who usually have been on a medication for a long period of time, and do not taper properly or at all.
