Hmmm, I would love to try something, but I feel I should not go against my doctors orders. I may just shoot her a message to let her know that I may try a reduction after one month on 10, or I could just try it and let her know after I have done it, haha. I only have 5 mg tablets that would break easily to 2.5 mg, not sure if that 2.5 would break easily in half (I just tried it, the 2.5 half tab did not break evenly into a 1.25). How are you going to .5mg. Do you have 1 mg tabs? I wonder if a 2.5mg reduction is too much at one time?
