You can also purchase empty capsules at a health food store. Right now I only take half of the Effexor XR capsule. I split the amount into two other empty capsules. When I take doxepin to help me sleep, I often break the capsule down into 4 equal amounts/capsules. The doxepin is a powder so I don't have the option of counting the beads but even with the Effexor, I find it's much easier to do that than to count the beads. However, when you count the beads you can have more control and can decrease by very small increments of 1 or 2 mg. at a time.
Either way you have options and can decrease at a rate that you're more comfortable with.
