[Ma...] Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Since my crash in the fall, I can no longer do liquid. I’m trying to wrap my head around the math of a daily dry cut taper I have a total of 4 mg. I want to taper a 2 mg pill. I need to go super slow at 160 days Per mg or 320 days for 2 mg. The pill weight average is .172. What is the equation for daily cut rate? What is equation for % per month reduction at this rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest [ba...] Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I think these are right. A smart person would double-check. First Order taper equation: =0.344*EXP(DAY*-0.002166085) 0.344 is your starting dose (weight of two pills). DAY is the day number of your taper (0, 1, 2, 3, ...) -0.002166085 is a constant (for the first-order taper) based on your desire to cut half of your dose in 320 days. Linear taper equation: =0.344-(0.0005375*DAY) 0.344 is your starting dose (weight of two pills). DAY is the day number of your taper 0.0005375 is a constant (for the linear taper) based on your desire to cut half of your dose in 320 days.
