You should not be feeling the withdrawal. You are going too fast.

Take the 300 dose every 5 or 6 hours, 3 times like you said. So 900 mg a day for a few weeks. Keep the time you take it at the same time each day. It is strong medicine.

If you have caplets you can cut them in half later on when decreasing. Or ask you Neuro for the 100 mg capsules so you can go down slowly. Like now taking 3-100 mgs pills, 3 x a day. Same thing.

I was on 3600 mg a day. I dropped the 300 dosage a few times slowly but toward the end part like where you are now 1200 mgs, I lowered it by using the 200 mg for a quite a while and then by using the 100 mgs capsules.

Ex. When you get to the 200 mg 3 x a day for a while, then do 1x 100 mg and 2 x 200 mg a day. You have to change the dosage to low and equal mgs. Then you can start changing the 3x, to 2x, a day. Don't try to do both the times and the dosage.

Believe me your body craves that darn drug. It is habit forming. Go slow.

If you have a question please ask your doctor. I might have mixed you up with these dosages I just quoted. Good Luck.
