It is not wise to stop either of these meds cold turkey after using them for two years. I would consult your doctor and discuss a tapering schedule and withdraw under medical supervision. There is really no way of knowing what would happen if you stopped both cold turkey. You may not have too much difficulty, but then again you may find it extremely uncomfortable, or anywhere in between. I personally would want my doctors advice and would want him/her aware of what I was doing in the event problems/difficulties arose.

Also, I would have a plan B ready if you have reemergence of your symptoms after you've completed the withdrawals. All the more reason to discuss this with your doctor. Good luck.
