Always be very careful in stopping any meds your are Rx'd. Many, including those we are discussing, not only can you build a tolerance but stopping without titrating down may cause severe withdraw affects.

Check your meds to determine whether simply stopping them will not cause more problems than taking them and titrating down. If you don't wish to go through the hassle of communicating with your PCP, I've found my local Walgreen's pharmacists to be very helpful.

Learned about this the hard way. So, learn from me.
