Hey guys, so i have been on Lexapro (cipralex) for about 7 months now, 10 mg's a day, and 150 mg's of Wellbutrin SR (slow release, from Canada) a day for about 3 weeks. Im trying to get off both, for personal reasons, so whats my best plan of attack?
I have already started to taper the Lexapro, i went from 10 mg's a day to 5 mg's a day and i have been taking 5mg's a day for about a week and a half. How much longer should i keep at 5 mg's a day before i switch to 5 mg's every 2 days? Or does anyone have a really got Lexapro taper plan they can share? I would prefer to avoid the worst of the withdrawl symptoms.
As for the Wellbutrin SR, since im on such a low does (150 mgs a day) can i just go cold turkey? I know you probably aren't supposed to cut SR pills in half so i dont really know how to taper off of this.... Any suggestions? Thanks guys.
