[Ia...] Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I've been taking Ativan for 8 years as needed. But recently around December started taking 1 mg or a little more split up every 6 hours. I cut back to .75 and then started stretching out the hours in between doses. I'm now down to .25 every 12 hours. But I'm constantly anxious & having lots of other side effects. I was told in the introduction board by a couple people to split my daily dosage of .50 into 4s & take every 6 hours. I feel like this has made me more anxious. Should I updose to .75 & split that up every 6 hours. And also what would be the best taper plan for the amount I'm taking? My pcp doesn't seem to know a lot about Benzo tapering, since she's told me to take It every 12 hours & then every 24. It almost seems like I'm getting no relief at all from the pieces I'm taking now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
