Hi..I hit a wall when I tried my usual method of tapering from 8mg to 7mg …the pain returned. I started alternating between 8 and 7.5 and then 7.5mg and 7mg. I’m wondering how long to continue this dosage before going to 7mg??
Thank you! June

I have mentioned this before in a reply: this is not a race. Healthunlocked.com (a wonderful and knowledgeable website) gives you different tapering schedules.
Good luck!

@juneh I think it might depend on how you feel. If you are feeling good when you wake up and it's time to take the days dosage, it's OK to try. Your body should remind you if it's not going to work...in my non medical opinion.
