A member asked:

What should i do to stop paroxetine and clonazepam?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

MAY NOT BE TIME: Many think that depressed patients should stay on a dose of antidepressant that works for at least a year to 1 1/2 years. This is to avoid recurrences. After that time taper slowly with dr's help. Be careful with you.
