Talk to General Physician on Withdrawal From Antidepressant
Asking for Self, Male, 31 years old, Lahore
I am currently withdrawing from antidepressant. I am doing it slowly as recommended. but problem is that it is very hard to cut a medicine. i am taking CIPRAM 20mg... half daily in the morning. its a small tablet when i cut it becomes further small and if i try to cut into 4 pieces its almost impossible to cut properly. Cipram 10mg or 5 mg is not available can someone tell me i can change tablet and get citalopram of 10 mg or 5 mg ? or i can shift to escitaloprám as it is available in smaller doses ? whats impact of BRAND on salt ??
