Today I review, and link to two teaching videos on psychiatric drug tapering from Metabolic Mind and Georgia Ede MD:
Taper Down Slowly: A Beginners Guide to Psychiatric Drug Tapering (Part 1)
Go Slowly: A Beginners Guide to Psychiatric Drug Tapering (Part 2)
Dr. Ede mentions some resources for tapering:
The Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines: Antidepressants, Benzodiazepines, Gabapentenoids, and Z-drugs. See and review the following resources.
