A member asked:
Does withdrawal effects from antipsychotic s like myalgia and parathesia get better over time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but: Most withdrawal effects will lessen or go away with time but if they are bothersome, talk to you prescriber. S/he may have some suggestions to lessen the symptoms or may choose to withdraw the drug slowly or may be able to help in other ways. Also, the symptoms may not be from the withdrawal at all but be new developing problems that may need treatment of their own.
