How long after stopping antidepressants might symptoms return?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antidepressants: Withdrawal emergence depends on length of time you took the medicine, dosage you're on, and if other medications are given to replace it or to lessen withdrawal. And also half life of medicine. On average, couple of weeks.
