Help with reducing 10 % within 14 days..

Dear BB Warriors

I hope that I can shine some light on what I am doing here.

I need to know exactly how to figure out the 10 % every 14 days of tapering with liquid titration from ativan.

I understand that you have to listen to your body and , and 10% is also that people do with their tapers.

Can anyone perhaps tell me if my math is correct here.

On 11/1/18 I was at .5 mg

I am reducing by 0.0025 mg per / 1 ml water

I am putting the .5 mg pill into 200 ml water.

.5/200 = 0.0025 mg <<TAPERING PER 1 ML THAT I TAKE OUT

I think this is how you figure this out

------------------------------------------------------------

So

200 ml    .5

14 days x 0.0025 =  0.035 /.5 mg  = 0.007 x 100 that's 7% reduction within 14 days. Is this correct?

186 ml now is 0.465 mg 

14 days  x 0.0025 = 0.035 /0.465mg  = 0.0752 x 100 that's 7.5% within days Is this correct?

172 ml is now 0.43 mg

14 days x 0.0025 = 0.035 / 0.43    =  0.08 x 100 that's 8.13 % within the 14 days. Is this correct?

I have severe brain for since I am at 0.22 mg Ativan. I know that I have asked a few people to figure this out for me, but I need to be absolutely sure on this.

Thank you so much for reading.

I am staying strong !

Hi

Correct!

Correct!

172 ml is now 0.43 mg

 

14 days x 0.0025 = 0.035 / 0.43    =  0.08 x 100 that's 8.13 % within the 14 days. Is this correct?

Correct!

You want to know when you will arrive to 10%/14 days:

140 ml is now 0.35 mg

14 days x 0.0025 = 0.035 / 0.35    =  0.10 x 100 that's 10% within the 14 days.

You seem all right at math . Those figures might have given headaches to some. Don't worry about your taper, it will end nicely.

All the best!

I'm not bad at math, and I had a hard time following your math.

But, it's really simple thinking of it this way: 

10% of 200ml is 20ml.  So pull out 20 ml, and drink the remaining 180ml. 

Next taper, pull out another 20ml, etc.

I am bad at math and was completely lost with what they were doing.  I do my taper like you but I skip the math and do it in increments and parts using 100 ml's of solution and take out 0.5 ml's a day adding on that daily.  Simple as that.  Whatever works... Lol
