I've attempted to come off benzos about 5 times and failed.
I finally did some research, and found that some meds help, like Trileptal and tegretol.
Took my first dose today of trileptal, and nothing short of a godsend, not going through severe withdrawal anymore.
all the studies that i read for trileptal and tegretol don't mention dosages for benzo withdrawal.
would 600mgs suffice for withdrawal, or should I look to something like 900-1200mgs?
I've taken trileptal before, and could tolerate 1200 fine.
they first thought it was BPII, but found out after over 5 years of benzo use, I was having tolerance and interdose withdrawals that were causing my symptoms.
thanks for your advice.
regards,
Brian
