Which tablets? What name and what dose? The general recommendation is to cut by 10% every 4 weeks and at lower doses to cut by 5% every 4 weeks (the Ashton manual, online/free).
Best done with a Doctor, though.
Note: cutting a tablet in half may not be enough.
It is the PERCENTAGE cut of a dose that matters.
Benzodiazapine withdrawal is serious and best done with a Doctor.
