Withdrawal: It depends on how much you tale and for how long. Someone taking only up to 3 tabs a day for a month usually does not have any withdrawal symptoms. Higher dose taken for a longer time causes withdrawal. These symptoms are usually the reversal of the effects such as diarrhea, feeling jittery, sweating, occ. Abdominal cramps etc. It could be uncomfortable but not dangerous.
