Hey everyone,
I've just started taking subs for the first time and they scare the crap out of me. I'm looking to use them in the safest way possible and get off them as easily as possible. The first day I took around 4mg, the second day around that, today I'm at about 4.2 and I'm thinking about taking a bit more around bedtime to make it through the night, I'm taking Zubsolv and the half-life or something seems off, every day I've started to feel the w/d's kicking back in around 4-5am. I've also read induction is important, but that 6mg may be the most you need in the beginning, so I don't want to take too much and take forever to come off. My doctor prescribed about 8.5mg daily (3x daily - 1/2 5.7mg Zubsolv pills). What would be the best way to go about getting off these? 25% taper and then the skipping days as recommended by Robert? I don't want to become dependent on this and use it forever, I just want to get off as easily and safely as possible.
