Call Prescriber: Your prescriber should give you specific instructions about that kind of medication issue. IF not then you need to call and request the info. I am not big on making more than one change at a time , so I generally add a medication like that and have us see where things are before making another change like stopping the other med. -Medication equivalency does not really work quite that way.Best
